description: On November 4th, 2010, the Deep Impact eXtended Investigation (DIXI) successfully encountered comet 103P/Hartley 2, when it was at a heliocentric distance of 1.06 AU. Spatially resolved near-IR spectra of comet Hartley 2 were acquired in the 1.05-4.83 micron wavelength range using the HRI-IR spectrometer. We present spectral maps of the inner ~10 kilometers of the coma collected 7 minutes and 23 minutes after closest approach. The extracted reflectance spectra include well-defined absorption bands near 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 micron consistent in position, bandwidth, and shape with the presence of water ice grains. Using Hapke's radiative transfer model, we characterize the type of mixing (areal vs. intimate), relative abundance, grain size, and spatial distribution of water ice and refractories. Our modeling suggests that the dust, which dominates the innermost coma of Hartley 2 and is at a temperature of 300K, is thermally and physically decoupled from the fine-grained water ice particles, which are on the order of 1 micron in size. The strong correlation between the water ice, dust, and CO2 spatial distribution supports the concept that CO2 gas drags the water ice and dust grains from the nucleus. Once in the coma, the water ice begins subliming while the dust is in a constant outflow. The derived water ice scale-length is compatible with the lifetimes expected for 1-micron pure water ice grains at 1 AU, if velocities are near 0.5 m/s. Such velocities, about three order of magnitudes lower than the expansion velocities expected for isolated 1-micron water ice particles [Hanner, 1981; Whipple, 1951], suggest that the observed water ice grains are likely aggregates.

description: A novel Bi-Mg-O composite nano-catalyst was prepared by using Bi(NO3)3 and nano-MgO. Prepared catalyst was characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) technique which confirms its nano-crystalline nature and composition. The synthesized novel catalyst Bi-Mg-O was found to be competent catalyst for the synthesis of spirooxindole derivatives by multicomponent reaction of isatin, dimedone, malononitrile and 4H-pyran derivatives by reaction of dimedone, aryl aldehydes and malononitrile using ethanol as solvent at room temperature. The nanocatalyst proved to be recyclable as it is recycled and recovered for three runs without notable loss in catalytic activity. All synthesized derivatives were obtained in exemplary yields. Novel recyclable nanocatalyst, good yields of products, and benign reaction conditions are the noteworthy aspects of the present protocol.

description: Background: Rectal tumor treatment strategies are individually tailored based on tumor stage, and yield different rates of posttreatment morbidity, mortality, and local recurrence. Therefore, the accuracy of pretreatment staging is highly important. Here we investigated the accuracy of staging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and endorectal ultrasound (ERUS) in a clinical setting. Material and methods: A total of 500 patients were examined at the rectal cancer outpatient clinic at Haukeland University Hospital between October 2014 and January 2018. This study included only cases in which the resection specimen had a histopathological staging of adenoma or early rectal cancer (pT1–pT2). Patients with previous pelvic surgery or preoperative radiotherapy were excluded. The 145 analyzed patients were preoperatively examined via biopsy (n = 132), digital rectal examination (n = 77), rigid rectoscopy (n = 127), ERUS (n = 104), real-time elastography (n = 96), and MRI (n = 84). Results: ERUS distinguished between adenomas and early rectal cancer with 88% accuracy (95% CI: 0.68–0.96), while MRI achieved 75% accuracy (95% CI: 0.54–0.88). ERUS tended to overstage T1 tumors as T2–T3 (16/24). MRI overstaged most adenomas to T1–T2 tumors (18/22). Neither ERUS nor MRI distinguished between T1 and T2 tumors. Conclusions: In a clinical setting, ERUS differentiated between benign and malignant tumors with high accuracy. The present findings support previous reports that ERUS and MRI have low accuracy for T-staging of early rectal cancer. We recommend that MRI be routinely combined with ERUS for the clinical examination of rectal tumors, since MRI consistently overstaged adenomas as cancer. In adenomas, MRI had no additional benefit for preoperative staging.

An upper bound on the k-modem illumination problem

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Computational Geometry (cs.CG)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A variation on the classical polygon illumination problem was introduced in [Aichholzer et. al. EuroCG'09]. In this variant light sources are replaced by wireless devices called k-modems, which can penetrate a fixed number k, of "walls". A point in the interior of a polygon is "illuminated" by a k-modem if the line segment joining them intersects at most k edges of the polygon. It is easy to construct polygons of n vertices where the number of k-modems required to illuminate all interior points is Omega(n/k). However, no non-trivial upper bound is known. In this paper we prove that the number of k-modems required to illuminate any polygon of n vertices is at most O(n/k). For the cases of illuminating an orthogonal polygon or a set of disjoint orthogonal segments, we give a tighter bound of 6n/k + 1. Moreover, we present an O(n log n) time algorithm to achieve this bound.

description: The use of surface plasmon resonance sensors allows for the fabrication of highly sensitive, label-free analytical devices. This contribution reports on a grating coupler to enable surface plasmon resonance studies using silver on silicon oxide technology to build long-term stable plasmonic structures for biological molecule sensing. The structural parameters were simulated and the corresponding simulation model was optimized based on the experimental results to improve its reliability. Based on the model, optimized grating nanostructures were fabricated on an oxidized silicon wafer with different structural parameters and characterized using a dedicated optical setup and scanning electron microscopy. The combined theoretical and experimental results show that the most relevant refractive index range for biological samples from 1.32–1.46 may conveniently be covered with a highest sensitivity of 128.85°/RIU.

description: We examine a two-dimensional system of sterically repulsive interacting disks where each particle runs in a random direction. This system is equivalent to a run-and-tumble dynamics system in the limit where the run time is infinite. At low densities, we find a strongly fluctuating state composed of transient clusters. Above a critical density that is well below the density at which non-active particles would crystallize, the system can organize into a drifting quiescent or frozen state where the fluctuations are lost and large crystallites form surrounded by a small density of individual particles. Although all the particles are still moving, their paths form closed orbits. The average transient time to organize into the quiescent state diverges as a power law upon approaching the critical density from above. We compare our results to the random organization observed for periodically sheared systems that can undergo an absorbing transition from a fluctuating state to a dynamical non-fluctuating state. In the random organization studies, the system organizes to a state in which the particles no longer interact; in contrast, we find that the randomly running active matter organizes to a strongly interacting dynamically jammed state. We show that the transition to the frozen state is robust against a certain range of stochastic fluctuations. We also examine the effects of adding a small number of pinned particles to the system and find that the transition to the frozen state shifts to significantly lower densities and arises via the nucleation of faceted crystals centered at the obstacles.

description: Background: The standard investigation in colorectal cancer screening (optical colonoscopy [OC]) has a less invasive alternative with the colon capsule endoscopy (CCE). The experiences of screening individuals are needed to support a decision aid (DA) and to provide a patient view in future health technology assessments (HTA). We aimed to explore the experiences of CCE at home and OC in an outpatient clinic by screening participants who experienced both investigations on the same bowel preparation. Methods: In a mixed methods study, Danish screening individuals with a positive immunological fecal occult blood test (FIT) were consecutively included and underwent both CCE and OC in the same bowel preparation. They answered questionnaires about discomfort during CCE, delivered at home, and during a following OC in the outpatient clinic. Data were calculated in percentages and Wilcoxon signed rank test was used for comparisons. Among the 253 included patients, 10 participants were selected for a semi-structured interview about their experiences of the two examinations. The analysis and interpretation of the transcribed data were inspired by Ricoeur. Results: Questionnaire data were received from 239 participants and revealed significant less discomfort during the CCE than the OC. Interview data included explained discomfort elements in two categories: ‘The examination’ and ‘The setting’. Compared to OC, the CCE was experienced with less pain, embarrassment and invasiveness, but presented challenges and disadvantages as well, i.e., a large camera capsule to swallow, a longer waiting time for test results after CCE and an additional OC, if pathologies were found. The home setting for CCE delivery made the participants feel less like they were ill or patients less restricted and that they received more personal care, but could induce technical challenges. Conclusion: In screening individuals, CCE at home was associated with significantly less discomfort compared to OC at a hospital, and multiple reasons for this was identified.

description: An antiferromagnetic insulating state has been found in the zigzag phosphorene nanoribbons (ZPNRs) from a comprehensive density functional theory calculations. Comparing with other one-dimensional systems, the magnetism in ZPNRs display several surprising characteristics: (i) the magnetic moments are antiparallel arranged at each zigzag edge; (ii) the magnetism is quite stable in energy (about 29 meV/magnetic-ion) and the band gap is big (about 0.7 eV); (iii) a moderate compressive strain will induce a magnetic to nonmagnetic as well as semiconductor to metal transition. All of these phenomena arise naturally due to one unique mechanism, namely the electronic instability induced by the half-filled one dimensional bands which cross the Fermi level at around π/2a. The unusual electronic and magnetic properties in ZPNRs endow them great potential for the applications in nanoelectronic devices.

description: ​To improve contemporary machine learning (ML) models, research is increasingly looking at tapping in and incorporating the knowledge of domain experts. However, expert knowledge often relies on intuition, which is difficult to formalize for incorporation into ML models. Against this backdrop, we investigate the role of intuition in the context of expert medical image annotation. We apply a cognitive task analysis approach, where we observe and interview six expert medical image annotators to gain insights into pertinent decision cues and the role of intuition during annotation. Our results show that intuition plays an important role in various steps of the medical image annotation process, particularly in the appraisals of very easy or very difficult images, and in case purely cognitive appraisals remain inconclusive. Overall, we contribute to a better understanding of expert intuition in medical image annotation and provide possible interfaces to incorporate said intuition into ML models.

description: We present a broadband (~0.5-79 keV) spectral and temporal analysis of multiple NuSTAR observations combined with archival Suzaku and Chandra data of NGC4945, the brightest extragalactic source at 100 keV. We observe hard X-ray (> 10 keV) flux and spectral variability, with flux variations of a factor 2 on timescales of 20 ksec. A variable primary continuum dominates the high energy spectrum (>10 keV) in all the states, while the reflected/scattered flux which dominates at E< 10 keV stays approximately constant. From modelling the complex reflection/transmission spectrum we derive a Compton depth along the line of sight of tau_Thomson ~ 2.9, and a global covering factor for the circumnuclear gas of ~ 0.15. This agrees with the constraints derived from the high energy variability, which implies that most of the high energy flux is transmitted, rather that Compton-scattered. This demonstrates the effectiveness of spectral analysis in constraining the geometric properties of the circumnuclear gas, and validates similar methods used for analyzing the spectra of other bright, Compton-thick AGN. The lower limits on the e-folding energy are between 200-300 keV, consistent with previous BeppoSAX, Suzaku and Swift BAT observations. The accretion rate, estimated from the X-ray luminosity and assuming a bolometric correction typical of type 2 AGN, is in the range ~0.1-0.3 lambda_Edd depending on the flux state. The substantial observed X-ray luminosity variability of NGC4945 implies that large errors can arise from using single-epoch X-ray data to derive L/L_Edd values for obscured AGNs.

description: The sustainable tourism development agenda is widely criticised for being co-opted to serve continual economic growth, driving environmental devastation and social inequalities. In response, calls for a fundamental paradigm shift have become louder. Subsequently, a novel approach has emerged, regenerative tourism, which belongs to a long lineage of regenerative development approaches drawing from Western science and Indigenous perspectives, knowledge systems and practices. The paper develops a conceptual framework consisting of five design dimensions and seven practice principles based on practitioner consultations and an appraisal of the theoretical and practical dimensions of regenerative tourism. Consequently, the conceptual framework offers practical guidance for tourism stakeholders working towards regenerative futures. Arguably, this is the most comprehensive review of regenerative tourism to date and contributes to scholarship through its examination of the transformational potential of the regenerative tourism paradigm and related approaches.

Pre-weaned Dairy Calf Management: An Investigation into Colostrum Practices and Non-Invasive Measures of Chronic Stress

description: Dairy calves in the preweaning period are exposed to a variety of stressors (e.g. disbudding, castration, etc.) and management practices that have the potential to influence their health and productivity later in life. Proper colostrum management at birth is the first step in ensuring calves can reach their full potential in terms of health, growth, and development, while improper management increases a calf’s risk of failed transfer of passive immunity (FTPI) which puts the calf at an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Previous research has indicated there is a difference in colostrum management practices between dairy bull and heifer calves. Due to the marketing of dairy-beef crossbred calves as surplus animals along with dairy bull calves, there is growing interest in the treatment of these calves on farms. The first study presented here (Chapter 2) investigated the relationship between colostrum management practices on 15 farms and the prevalence of FTPI between purebred dairy and dairy-beef crossbred calves on those farms. The results of this study found no influence of calf breed (purebred dairy or dairy-beef crossbred) on the prevalence of FTPI. However, farm tended to influence FTPI. There was also a significant influence of the reported timing of the first colostrum feeding on FTPI, with calves on farms reporting feeding colostrum within 1 hour of birth having decreased odds of experiencing FTPI. In addition to colostrum management at birth, calves are exposed to several management factors during the preweaning period that can cause stressful experiences and result in negative behavioral and physiological outcomes. Early life stress, especially chronic stress, can negatively impact calves later in life. Short term stress load in calves can be quantified by measuring cortisol in the blood serum or saliva; however, these measures are not reflective of chronic stress load because they only measure circulating cortisol. The second study (Chapter 3) considered the efficacy of utilizing hair cortisol concentration (HCC) as a measure of stress load in 27 dairy calves exposed to a weekly saline injection or a weekly or biweekly repeated acute stressor (Cosyntropin injection) during the preweaning period. The results revealed no difference in HCC between the treatment groups, though salivary cortisol was increased in calves injected with Cosyntropin. Additionally, calf behavior and growth were not influenced by the treatments in this study. Overall, these studies provided insights into two areas that have not been extensively researched. First, considering dairy-beef crossbred calf management, and second investigating a method to assess chronic stress that has not been extensively researched in calves.

description: Objective: This prospective pilot study assessed the feasibility of electronic email-based questionnaires about patient-reported complications after colonoscopy. Material and methods: A newly internally validated questionnaire on patient-reported complications related to colonoscopy was conducted as an online survey. Results: Out of 200 patients (mean age 65 years), 83% completed the first questionnaire immediately after the procedure, 77% completed the second follow-up questionnaire after 24 h at home, and 70% the third one after 30 d. Forty-four percent of the patients reported minor adverse events after 24 h, and 23% at the follow-up after 30 d. The rate of sick leave in the 30-d period after the colonoscopy was 6%. Conclusions: This study shows that email-based questionnaires give a high response rate independent of age or gender, but that the response rate declines with time after colonoscopy. Minor adverse events are underestimated, and colonoscopy could lead to sick leave in a minor subgroup of patients.

description: Let w(x; y) be a word in two variables and W the variety determined by w. In this thesis, which includes a work made in collaboration with C. Nicotera [5], we raise the following question: if for every pair of elements a; b in a group G there exists g 2 G such that w(ag; b) = 1, under what conditions does the group G belong to W ? We introduce for every g 2 G the sets Ww L (g) = fa 2 G j w(g; a) = 1g and Ww R (g) = fa 2 G j w(a; g) = 1g ; where the letters L and R stand for left and right. In [2], M. Herzog, P. Longobardi and M. Maj observed that if a group G belongs to the class Y of all groups which cannot be covered by conjugates of any proper subgroup, then G is abelian if for every a; b 2 G there exists g 2 G for which [ag; b] = 1. Hence when G is a Y -group and w is the commutator word [x; y], the set Ww L (g) = Ww R (g) is the centralizer of g in G, and the answer to the problem is a rmative. If G belongs to the class Y , we show that, more generally, the problem has a positive answer whenever each subset Ww L (g) is a subgroup of G, or equivalently, if each subset Ww R (g) is a subgroup of G. The sets Ww L (g) and Ww R (g) can be called the centralizer-like subsets associated with the word w. They need not be subgroups in general: we examine some su cient conditions on the group G ensuring that the sets Ww L (g) and Ww R (g) are subgroups of G for all g in G. We denote by W w L and W w R respectively the class of all groups G for which the set Ww L (g) is a subgroup of G for every g 2 G and the class of all groups G for which each subset Ww R (g) is a subgroup...

description: Background: Colorectal capsule endoscopy (CCE) is a potentially valuable patient-friendly technique for colorectal cancer screening in large populations. Before it can be widely applied, significant research priorities need to be addressed. We present two innovative data science algorithms which can considerably improve acquisition and analysis of relevant data on colorectal polyps obtained from capsule endoscopy. Material and methods: A fully paired study was performed (2015–2016), where 255 participants from the Danish national screening program had CCE, colonoscopy, and histopathology of all detected polyps. We developed: (1) a new algorithm to match CCE and colonoscopy polyps, based on objective measures of similarity between polyps, and (2) a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for autonomous detection and localization of colorectal polyps in colon capsule endoscopy. Results and conclusion: Unlike previous matching methods, our matching algorithm is able to objectively quantify the similarity between CCE and colonoscopy polyps based on their size, morphology and location, and provides a one-to-one unequivocal match between CCE and colonoscopy polyps. Compared to previous methods, the autonomous detection algorithm showed unprecedented high accuracy (96.4%), sensitivity (97.1%) and specificity (93.3%), calculated in respect to the number of polyps detected by trained nurses and gastroenterologists after visualizing frame-by-frame the CCE videos.

description: Extrusion Deposition Additive Manufacturing (EDAM) is a process in which fiber-filled thermoplastic polymers pellets get molten in the extruder and deposited onto a build plate in a layer-by-layer basis. The use of short fiber composite for EDAM has enabled large-scale 3D printing structures and tools for traditional composite manufacturing processes. Successful EDAM production critically depends on the understanding of the process-structure-property relationship. Especially on the bonding between the beads which is of paramount importance in additive manufacturing since it affects primarily the fracture and strength characteristics of the printed part. Bonding is influenced mainly by the temperature history and the contact between the beads. Both of which is dependent on the fiber orientation within the bead induced by the flow deformation that occurs according to the printing parameters. This study aims to investigate and model the complex relationship between the printing conditions and inter-bead bonding in the lateral direction. A framework was developed to facilitate this aim, and it contains a fusion bonding model that couples the time-temperature history and the bead-to-bead contact interface. Four deposition parameters were studied: the nozzle height, ratio of the print velocity to extrudate velocity, bead-to-bead spacing, and layer time. First, a deposition flow model was developed, utilizing the anisotropic viscous flow model and smooth particle hydrodynamic finite element formulation, to predict the fiber orientation state across the deposited bead and the bead-to-bead interface for the given set of deposition parameters. Next, the effect of printing conditions on the temperature history of the bead was discovered by utilizing the heat transfer process simulation in ADDITIVE3D. Third, the experimental characterization procedure for mode I fracture toughness in the lateral direction was developed, and the fracture toughness was characterized using linear elastic fracture mechanics principles. Lastly, the phenomenological model for non-isothermal lateral fusion bonding was characterized using the bead contact interface, temperature history, and fracture toughness properties. This work showed a comprehensive effort in fusion bonding modeling while also presented a valuable process-structure-property-performance relationship in EDAM. Guidance on the selection of printing conditions and strategy can be made using the developed model to print higher-strength parts.

description: Osteoporosis has a tremendous impact on the lives of many postmenopausal women. It is encouraging that effective treatments for this disease abound and the challenge is to ensure that those most in need of diagnosis or therapy obtain adequate care. Further research is expected to clarify the role of combination therapy or sequential use of different agents for the maximum benefit in fracture protection. There is an array of efficacious options to consider when diagnosing and treating osteoporosis so that patients and their caregivers can remain optimistic about the management of this chronic disease and prevention of future fractures.

description: We derive new approximate representations of the Lommel functions in terms of the Scorer function and approximate representations of the first derivative of the Lommel functions in terms of the derivative of the Scorer function. Using the same method we obtain previously known approximate representations of the Nicholson type for Bessel functions and their first derivatives. We study also for what values of the parameters our representations have reasonable accuracy.

Untangling liana responses to elevated CO2
Creators: name: Laugier-Kitchener, Bree-Anne
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Lianas are an important physiognomic feature of forests globally and are increasing in abundance and biomass in some tropical and temperate forests. Lianas often negatively affect tree growth and survival, therefore increases may cause significant changes to forest diversity, carbon storage and ecosystem dynamics. The first chapter of this thesis addresses and synthesises the putative mechanisms that may explain the current observed increases in lianas in some forests and attempts to determine if such increases are a global or regional phenomenon. Increasing atmospheric CO2, prolonged dry seasons, and heightened disturbance are the three main drivers attributed to the observed increases in lianas. There is ongoing debate around the significance of each driver and their individual contributions to liana increases. It is also likely that these drivers act in combination at global, regional and local scales to produce the reported trends. To further examine the importance of increasing atmospheric CO2 as a driver of liana increases, the second chapter of this thesis contains primary research on the effects of elevated CO2 (including interactions with drought) on the comparative responses of lianas and trees and is formatted as a manuscript for submission for publication to Global Change Biology. Using a Free Air CO2 Enrichment facility in Richmond, Australia, I had the unique opportunity to test the effects of elevated CO2 on co-occurring liana and tree responses at the adult life stage – research which has never been conducted previously. In contrasting ambient and elevated CO2 conditions I investigated the water-use and growth trait responses of the single dominant liana and tree species at the experimental site. Elevated CO2 benefitted liana water status during drought, although additional CO2 did not confer a greater liana growth response compared to trees. Lianas were less water-stressed than trees overall, thus prolonged dry seasons under future climates may benefit lianas relative to trees and lead to liana increases, although this may not depend on elevated CO2. The knowledge generated herein can assist to untangle and resolve questions of the relative responses of mature lianas and trees to elevated CO2.

description: Computer-based clinical simulations for medical education vary widely in structure and for mat, yet few studies have examined which formats are optimal for particular educational settings. This study is a randomized comparison of the same simulated case in three formats: a "pedagogic" format offering explicit educational support, a "high-fidelity" format attempting to model clinical reasoning in the real world, and a "problem-solving" format that requires students to express specific diagnostic hypotheses Data were collected from rising third- year medical students using a posttest, attitudinal questionnaire, students' writeups of the case, and log files of students' progress through the simulation. Student performances on all measures differed significantly by format. In general, students using the pedagogic format were more proficient but less efficient. They acquired more information but were able to do proportionately less with it. The results suggest that the format of computer-based simulations is an important educational variable. Key words. medical education, undergraduate; clinical reasoning; computer-assisted instruction. (Med Decis Making 1991;11:265-272)
