description: Maintenance of the health of our oceans is critical for the survival of the oceanic food chain upon which humanity is dependent. Zooplanktonic copepods are among the most numerous multicellular organisms on earth. As the base of the primary consumer food web, they constitute a major biomass in oceans, being an important food source for fish and functioning in the carbon cycle. The potential impact of climate change on copepod populations is an area of intense study. Omics technologies offer the potential to detect early metabolic alterations induced by the stresses of climate change. One such omics approach is lipidomics, which can accurately quantify changes in lipid pools serving structural, signal transduction, and energy roles. We utilized high-resolution mass spectrometry (≤2 ppm mass error) to characterize the lipidome of three different species of copepods in an effort to identify lipid-based biomarkers of copepod health and viability which are more sensitive than observational tools. With the establishment of such a lipid database, we will have an analytical platform useful for prospectively monitoring the lipidome of copepods in a planned long-term five-year ecological study of climate change on this oceanic sentinel species. The copepods examined in this pilot study included a North Atlantic species (Calanus finmarchicus) and two species from the Gulf of Mexico, one a filter feeder (Acartia tonsa) and one a hunter (Labidocerca aestiva). Our findings clearly indicate that the lipidomes of copepod species can vary greatly, supporting the need to obtain a broad snapshot of each unique lipidome in a long-term multigeneration prospective study of climate change. This is critical, since there may well be species-specific responses to the stressors of climate change and co-stressors such as pollution. While lipid nomenclature and biochemistry are extremely complex, it is not essential for all readers interested in climate change to understand all of the various lipid classes presented in this study. The clear message from this research is that we can monitor key copepod lipid families with high accuracy, and therefore potentially monitor lipid families that respond to environmental perturbations evoked by climate change.

description: Abstract: Cancer is the leading cause of global death; its treatment prolongs life but limits functionality. The combination of physical training, nutrition and psychological support can improve the functionality of post-surgical patients and reduce hospital costs. Objective: To evaluate the viability of a trimodal prehabilitation program in adults with indication for oncological surgeries at the Regional Hospital of Talca. Method: Evidence on prehabilitation was reviewed and normative bases for its design were established, structuring an intervention plan with a technical, financial and organizational study. Results: In cancer, surgery is essential, radiotherapy is accepted, and chemotherapy is common, with high costs and whose complications increase expenses. This is reduced with interdisciplinary strategies such as exercise, emotional and nutritional support, improving quality of life and reducing hospitalization costs, generating savings. Institutional Care Model financing is more efficient than Free Choice Model, allowing greater coverage. The financial study reveals that the project is viable, with positive Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return higher than the discount rate. Conclusion: A trimodal prehabilitation program is a cost-effective strategy to improve the functionality and quality of life of patients with oncological surgeries, being clinically and financially beneficial.

description: Statement of problem. Cold rolling is widely used for screw thread manufacturing in industry but is less common in implant dentistry, where cutting is the preferred manufacturing method. Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the surface finish and mechanical performance of a specific model of prosthetic screw used for direct restorations manufactured by thread rolling and cutting. Material and methods. The thread profiles were measured in an optical measuring machine, the residual stresses in an X-ray diffractometer, the surface finish in a scanning electron microscope, and then fatigue and static load tests were carried out in a direct stress test bench according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14801. Finally, linear regression models and 95% interval confidence bands were calculated and compared through ANCOVA for fatigue tests while the t test was used for statistical comparisons (a=.05). Results. The surface finish was smoother, and compressive residual stresses were higher for the roll-threaded screws. Linear regression models showed a fatigue life 9 times higher for roll-threaded screws (P=1) without affecting static behavior, which showed statistically similar static strengths (P=.54). However, the thread profile in the roll-threaded screws was not accurately reproduced, but this should be easily corrected in future prototypes. Conclusions. Rolling was demonstrated to be a better thread-manufacturing process for prosthetic screws, producing improved surface quality and fatigue behavior.

description: In wire bearings the rolling process occurs on raceways machined on steel wires, and the rings are made of light materials such as aluminium. This particular architecture provides both weight and inertia savings, but also significantly different behaviour with respect to conventional bearings. For this reason, specific design and analysis tools must be developed; as a first step, this work uses Finite Element models to study the influence of different parameters on the static structural response of wire bearings. Thus, bearing stiffness, load capacity and contact status (contact force and angle, and ellipse truncation) have been evaluated for several combinations of conformity, friction coefficient and boundary conditions. The results have been compared with an equivalent conventional bearing, shedding light on the main structural features of wire bearings.

description: Since Erich Franke produced the first wire race bearings in 1934, they have not been used profusely until these last years in applications such as computerized tomography, X-ray machines, wheels with direct drive... where low weight and inertia constraints are important. Accounting for the structural behaviour of the bearing, there exist a key phenomenon not present in other kind of more known bearings, which is the wire twisting under load; this wire twisting steers the force transmission among the bearing rings and the rolling elements. In this sense, for design and selection purposes, if a complete structural model of the bearing is to be done in an efficient way to assess bearing stiffness and load distribution over the rolling elements, the twisting stiffness of the wire has to be modelled properly. This work develops a simple analytical expression of that stiffness to be used in structural models, derived from an evidence-based deformation assumption at differential level for the section of the wire.

description: Introduction: Lives lost in North America due to the unregulated drug poisoning emergency are preventable and those who survive an opioid overdose may suffer long-term disability. Rates of opioid overdose more than doubled following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in British Columbia, Canada. Materials and methods: Our analytical sample was comprised of 1447 participants from the 2018, 2019, and 2021 Harm Reduction Client Survey who responded yes or no to having experienced an opioid overdose in the past 6 months. Participants were recruited from harm reduction sites from across British Columbia. We used logistic regression to explore associations of experiencing an opioid overdose. Results: Overall, 21.8% of participants reported experiencing an opioid overdose in the last six months (18.2% in 2019 and 26.6% in 2021). The following factors were positively associated with increased adjusted odds of experiencing a non-fatal opioid overdose: cis men relative to cis women (AOR 1.49, 95% CI 1.10–2.02), unstably housed compared to people with stable housing (AOR 1.87, 95% CI 1.40–2.50), and participants from 2021 compared to those from 2019 (AOR 3.06, 95% CI 1.57–5.97). The effects of both previous experience of a stimulant overdose and having witnessed an opioid overdose depended on the year of study, with both effects decreasing over subsequent years. Conclusions: Overdoses have increased over time; in 2021 more than one in four participants experienced an overdose. There is an urgent need for policy and program development to meaningfully address the unregulated drug poisoning emergency through acceptable life-saving interventions and services to prevent overdoses and support overdose survivors.

ICASSP2024 Poster: Sound Field Interpolation for Rotation-Invariant Multichannel Array Signal Processing

description: Inthis paper,we present a sound field interpolation for array signal processing (ASP) that is robust to rotation of a circular microphone array (CMA), and we evaluate beamforming as one of its applications. Most ASP methods assume a time-invariantacoustic transfer system (ATS) from sources to the microphone array. This assumption makes it challenging to perform ASP in real situations where sources and the microphone array can move. Therefore, considering a time-variant ATS is an essential task for the use of ASP. In this study, we focus on one such movement, the rotation of theCMA.Our method interpolates the sound field on the circumference of a circle, where microphones are equally spaced, based on the sampling theorem on the circle. The interpolation enables us to estimate the signals at the microphone positions before the rotation. Hence, conventional ASP, which assumes a time-invariant ATS, is applicable after interpolation without modification. We developed two beamforming schemes, one for batch and one for online processing, that combine the minimum power distortionless response beamformer and sound field interpolation. We evaluated the dependences of the interpolation on frequency and rotation angle using the signal-to-error ratio. Additionally, simulation results demonstrated that the two proposed schemes improve the beamformer’s performance when the CMA rotates.

description: Unsafe drinking water is a recognized health threat in Ethiopia, and climate change, rapid population growth, urbanization and agricultural practices put intense pressure on availability and quality of water. Climate change-related health problems due to floods and waterborne diseases are increasing. With increasing insight into impacts of climate change and urbanization on water availability and quality and of required adaptations, a shift towards climate-resilient water safety planning was introduced into an Ethiopian strategy and guidance document to guarantee safe drinking water. Climate-resilient water safety planning was implemented in the urban water supplies of Addis Ababa and Adama, providing drinking water to 5 million and 500,000 people, respectively. Based on the risks identified with climate-resilient water safety planning, water quality monitoring can be optimized by prioritizing parameters and events which pose a higher risk for contaminating the drinking water. Water quality monitoring was improved at both drinking water utilities and at the Public Health Institute to provide relevant data used as input for climate-resilient water safety planning. By continuously linking water quality monitoring and climate-resilient water safety planning, utilization of information was optimized, and both approaches benefit from linking these activities. © 2019 The Authors

description: The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) has been a pivotal international instrument for global biodiversity conservation since 1992. The recent Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) aims to provide a pathway for the CBD for the present decade. However, the practicalities of land use and biodiversity conservation pose significant challenges. Drawing from diverse literature and reports, we identify nine implementation challenges for the GBF. These encompass harmonising conservation with sustainable development, integrating local values and indigenous knowledge, adopting a holistic landscape approach, and prioritising effective local governance. A shift from broad targets to explicit conservation metrics is vital. We propose strategies emphasising building institutional capacity for localised, participatory conservation and policy-making processes. This article offers suggestions for improving the GBF’s implementation and shaping future policy frameworks.

description: Social robots have the potential to support health and quality of life for children experiencing anxiety. We engaged families with lived experiences of pediatric anxiety in social robot development to explore desired design features, application areas, and emotion functionalities of social robots in anxiety care. We conducted 10 online co-creation workshops with (1) children with anxiety aged 7–13 (n = 24) with their family members (n = 20), and (2) youth with anxiety aged 14–18 (n = 12). Workshop participation included a validated robot expectations scale, anonymous polls, and discussion. Transcripts and text responses were subjected to content analysis. A lived experience expert group provided feedback throughout the research. Participants desired a pet-like robot with a soft texture, expressive eyes, and emotion detection to support activities of daily living. Specific anxiety-related applications included breathing exercises, managing distressing thoughts, and encouragement. Emotional alignment, the design of a robot’s emotional display, and the emotional impacts of an interaction were discussed. Privacy and the replacement of human interaction were concerns. We identify pediatric anxiety-specific design features, applications, and affective considerations for existing and future social robots. Our findings highlight the need for customizability and robust emotional functionality in social robot technologies intended to support the health and care of children living with anxiety.

description: Interpreting the cosmological constant as the energy of the vacuum and using a gravitational decoupling approach leads to a new Kerr--anti-de Sitter (AdS) black hole. The metric of the new Kerr--AdS is simpler than the standard Kerr--AdS and exhibits richer geometry, where the effects of rotation appear as warped curvature. We investigate the relationship between unstable photon orbits and thermodynamic phase transitions in this new Kerr--AdS black hole background. We derive an exact expression for various thermodynamic properties, including mass ($M$), Hawking temperature ($T$), entropy ($S$), heat capacity ($C$), and free energy ($G$), by relating the negative cosmological constant to positive pressure through the equation $P = -Λ/(8 π) = 3/(8 πl^2)$, where $l$ represents the horizon radius, and by introducing its conjugate variable as the thermodynamic volume $V$. When $P < P_c$, black holes with $C_P > 0$ are thermodynamically stable, while those with $C_P \leq 0$ are unstable. Our analysis of the Gibbs free energy reveals a phase transition from small, globally unstable black holes to large, globally stable ones. Additionally, investigating the system's $P$-$V$ criticality and determining the critical exponents shows that our system shares similarities with a Van der Waals (vdW) fluid. In the reduced parameter space, we observe non-monotonic behavior of the photon sphere radius and the critical impact parameter when the pressure is below its critical value. Furthermore, we present the distribution of critical points in parameter space and derive a fitting formula for the coexistence curve.

description: Speculative decoding aims to speed up autoregressive generation of a language model by verifying in parallel the tokens generated by a smaller draft model.In this work, we explore the effectiveness of learning-free, negligible-cost draft strategies, namely $N$-grams obtained from the model weights and the context. While the predicted next token of the base model is rarely the top prediction of these simple strategies, we observe that it is often within their top-$k$ predictions for small $k$. Based on this, we show that combinations of simple strategies can achieve significant inference speedups over different tasks. The overall performance is comparable to more complex methods, yet does not require expensive preprocessing or modification of the base model, and allows for seamless `plug-and-play' integration into pipelines.

description: This study assessed the safety and efficacy of OncoTherad® (MRB-CFI-1) nanoimmunotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients unresponsive to Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and explored its mechanisms of action in a bladder cancer microenvironment. A single-arm phase I/II study was conducted with 44 patients with NMIBC who were unresponsive to BCG treatment. Primary outcomes were pathological complete response (pCR) and relapse-free survival (RFS). Secondary outcomes comprised response duration and therapy safety. Patients’ mean age was 65 years; 59.1% of them were refractory, 31.8% relapsed, and 9.1% were intolerant to BCG. Moreover, the pCR rate after 24 months reached 72.7% (95% CI), whereas the mean RFS reached 21.4 months. Mean response duration in the pCR group was 14.3 months. No patient developed muscle-invasive or metastatic disease during treatment. Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 77.3% of patients, mostly grade 1–2 events. OncoTherad® activated the innate immune system through toll-like receptor 4, leading to increased interferon signaling. This activation played a crucial role in activating CX3CR1+ CD8 T cells, decreasing immune checkpoint molecules, and reversing immunosuppression in the bladder microenvironment. OncoTherad® has proved to be a safe and effective therapeutic option for patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, besides showing likely advantages in tumor relapse prevention processes.

description: Our understanding of human learning has been greatly improved by recent research findings from the fields of cognitive science, neurobiology, organizational studies, anthropology, linguistics, and evolutionary psychology. Despite all that is known, however, the majority of formal schools in the world operate much as they did 50 years ago. The pedagogy and the structure of the educational experience still reflect industrial age assumptions that are increasingly anachronistic in the modern knowledge production economy and in the post-modern cultural arena. Given the paucity of examples, it is difficult to visualize the characteristics of a future learning society - a society that embodies all that we know about human learning. This thesis develops two scenarios that attempt to describe two possible future societies; the first society is where learning flourishes and the other still labors under the industrial age assumptions. The purpose of these scenarios is to describe a utopian and a corresponding dys-utopian state that will serve as target conditions for current efforts at reform. The thesis presents an extensive literature review of recent research and writings from the above mentioned disciplines. The literature review is divided into three parts: the pupose of education, the way people learn, and lessons from the field. Much of the literature was complied during an internship at the 21st Century Learning Initiative, and educational policy think tank located in Washington DC and on the web at www.21 Learn.erg

description: At the international workshop Aquatic Macrophyte Risk Assessment for Pesticides (AMRAP), it was noted that the EU risk assessment under the directive 91/414/EEC for herbicides, based only on algae and the monocotyledonous duckweed species Lemna sp., offers no certain protection against some growth regulating auxins. Therefore, AMRAP members proposed the introduction of the dicotyledonous water milfoil Myriophyllum as additional test species. This study was aimed to compare toxicity results from three test systems (TS) with varying complexity, namely Water TS, Sediment TS and Microcosm TS using Myriophyllum spicatum as test organism. As test substances, the photosynthesis inhibiting herbicide isoproturon, the growth regulating auxins fluroxypyr and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and the non-specific acting toxicant 3,5-dichlorophenol (3,5-DCP) were chosen. It was assessed if and why the sensitivity of M. spicatum towards the four toxicants varied in the different test systems and if the addition of sucrose to the medium used in the Water TS had an effect on the sensitivity of Myriophyllum. All TS were suitable for detecting negative effects of toxicants with different modes of action on M. spicatum. The lowest variability of endpoints was found in the Water TS with lowest experimental complexity. For auxins, the endpoint weight did not result in robust EC50 values in all TS, whereas root related endpoints, which are also ecologically relevant, turned out to be very sensitive with low variance. Sucrose in the medium of the Water TS did not seem to influence the sensitivity of M. spicatum towards isoproturon and 3,5-DCP but may have increased the sensitivity of M. spicatum roots when exposed to 2,4-D. However, the findings of all TS resulted in similar risk estimations if root endpoints were not considered.

description: The Single Site Order (SSO)—a policy restricting staff from working at multiple long-term care (LTC) homes—was mandated by the Public Health Agency of Canada to control the spread of COVID-19 in LTC homes, where nearly 70% of COVID-19-related deaths in Canada occurred. This mixed methods study assesses the impact of the SSO on LTC residents in British Columbia. Interviews were conducted (residents (n = 6), family members (n = 9), staff (n = 18), and leadership (n = 10) from long-term care homes (n = 4)) and analyzed using thematic analysis. Administrative data were collected between April 2019 and March 2020 and between April 2020 and March 2021 and analyzed using descriptive statistics and data visualization. Qualitative and quantitative data were triangulated and demonstrated that staffing challenges became worse during the implementation of the SSO, resulting in the mental and physical health deterioration of LTC residents. Qualitative data demonstrated decreased time for personalized and proactive care, increased communication challenges, and increased loneliness and isolation. Quantitative data showed a decline in activities of daily living, increased antipsychotic medication use, pressure ulcers, behavioural symptoms, and an increase in falls. Addressing staff workload and staffing shortages during SSO-related policy implementation is essential to avoid resident health deterioration.

description: We study the properties of long gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies using a statistical modelling framework derived to model damped Lyman-$α$ absorbers (DLAs) in quasar spectra at high redshift. The distribution of NHI for GRB-DLAs is $\sim$10 times higher than what is found for quasar-DLAs at similar impact parameters. We interpret this as a temporal selection effect due to the short-lived GRB progenitor probing its host at the onset of a starburst where the interstellar medium may exhibit multiple overdense regions. Owing to the larger NHI, the dust extinction is larger with 29 per cent of GRB-DLAs exhibiting A(V)>1 mag in agreement with the fraction of 'dark bursts'. Despite the differences in NHI distributions, we find that high-redshift 2 < z < 3 quasar- and GRB-DLAs trace the luminosity function of star-forming host galaxies in the same way. We propose that their differences may arise from the fact that the galaxies are sampled at different times in their star formation histories, and that the absorption sightlines probe the galaxy haloes differently. Quasar-DLAs sample the full H I cross-section, whereas GRB-DLAs sample only regions hosting cold neutral medium. Previous studies have found that GRBs avoid high-metallicity galaxies ($\sim$0.5 $Z_{\odot}$). Since at these redshifts galaxies on average have lower metallicities, our sample is only weakly sensitive to such a threshold. Lastly, we find that the modest detection rate of cold gas (H$_2$ or C I) in GRB spectra can be explained mainly by a low volume filling factor of cold gas clouds and to a lesser degree by destruction from the GRB explosion itself.

Search for heavy Majorana or Dirac neutrinos and right-handed W gauge bosons in final states with charged leptons and jets in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
Creators: name: ATLAS Collaboration
Publisher: name: Springer Berlin Heidelberg
Year: 2024

description: A search for heavy right-handed Majorana or Dirac neutrinos NR and heavy right-handed gauge bosons WR is performed in events with energetic electrons or muons, with the same or opposite electric charge, and energetic jets. The search is carried out separately for topologies of clearly separated final-state products (“resolved” channel) and topologies with boosted final states with hadronic and/or leptonic products partially overlapping and reconstructed as a large-radius jet (“boosted” channel). The events are selected from pp collision data at the LHC with an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 collected by the ATLAS detector at √s = 13 TeV. No significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions are observed. The results are interpreted within the theoretical framework of a left-right symmetric model, and lower limits are set on masses in the heavy righthanded WR boson and NR plane. The excluded region extends to about m(WR) = 6.4 TeV for both Majorana and Dirac NR neutrinos at m(NR) < 1 TeV. NR with masses of less than 3.5 (3.6) TeV are excluded in the electron (muon) channel at m(WR) = 4.8 TeV for the Majorana neutrinos, and limits of m(NR) up to 3.6 TeV for m(WR) = 5.2 (5.0) TeV in the electron (muon) channel are set for the Dirac neutrinos. These constitute the most stringent exclusion limits to date for the model considered.

description: Deep learning (DL) technologies can transform agriculture by improving crop health monitoring and management, thus improving food safety. In this paper, we explore the potential of edge computing for real-time classification of leaf diseases using thermal imaging. We present a thermal image dataset for plant disease classification and evaluate deep learning models, including InceptionV3, MobileNetV1, MobileNetV2, and VGG-16, on resource-constrained devices like the Raspberry Pi 4B. Using pruning and quantization-aware training, these models achieve inference times up to 1.48x faster on Edge TPU Max for VGG16, and up to 2.13x faster with precision reduction on Intel NCS2 for MobileNetV1, compared to high-end GPUs like the RTX 3090, while maintaining state-of-the-art accuracy.

description: Background Transitioning home from the structured hospital setting poses challenges for people with stroke (PWS) and their caregivers (CGs), as they navigate through complex uncertainties. There are gaps in our understanding of appropriate support interventions for managing the transition home. In this qualitative study, we explored the perspectives of PWS and their CGs regarding their support experiences and preferences during this period. Methods Between November 2022 and March 2023, and within six months of hospital discharge, audio-recorded, semi-structured interviews were conducted with PWS and CGs. All interviews were transcribed, imported into NVivo software, and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Results Sixteen interviews were conducted, nine with PWS and seven with CGs. Four themes relevant to their collective experiences and preferences were identified: (i) Need for tailored information-sharing, at the right time, and in the right setting; (ii) The importance of emotional support; (iii) Left in limbo, (iv) Inequity of access. Experiences depict issues such as insufficient information-sharing, communication gaps, and fragmented and inequitable care; while a multi-faceted approach is desired to ease anxiety and uncertainty, minimise delays, and optimise recovery and participation during transition. Conclusions Our findings highlight that regardless of the discharge route, and even with formal support systems in place, PWS and families encounter challenges during the transition period. The experiences of support at this transition and the preferences of PWS and CGs during this important period highlights the need for better care co-ordination, early and ongoing emotional support, and equitable access to tailored services and support. Experiences are likely to be improved by implementing a partnership approach with improved collaboration, including joint goal-setting, between PWS, CGs, healthcare professionals and support organisations
