description: The draft sequence of the human genome became available almost a decade ago but the encoded proteome is not being explored to its fullest. Our bibliometric analysis of several large protein families, including those known to be "druggable", reveals that, even today, most papers focus on proteins that were known prior to 2000. It is evident that one or more aspects of the biomedical research system severely limits the exploration of the proteins in the 'dark matter' of the proteome, despite unbiased genetic approaches that have pointed to their functional relevance. It is perhaps not surprising that relatively few genome-derived targets have led to approved drugs.

Subjects: Buddhism, hermeneutics, mental health, nurse-patient relationship, ritual

description: Forms of practice among nurses on acute care mental health units present a way of revealing how different traditions and values are in play between nurses and also within nurses.Â  This paper represents one interpretive theme from a larger, hermeneutic study of nursesâ€™ experiences of nurse-patient relationships on acute care mental health units, using Buddhist perspectives as a resource for interpretation of interviews with nurses. Understandings of ritual in the Zen Buddhist tradition and Catherine Bellâ€™s (2009a) concept of ritualized behavior enabled an interpretive analysis of nursesâ€™ activities as the expression and reflexive reinforcement of underlying traditions, values, and beliefs. In particular, nursesâ€™ preferences among ways of relating with patients evinced contrasting background traditions of confinement and therapeutically directed engagement.

description: Up to half of the population have introverted personalities. Workplace diversity can lead to increased productivity, creativity and problem-solving. Understanding introversion in relation to workplace performance and creativity and how to encourage inclusion of introverts would benefit employers and employees. We describe the evidence defining and evaluating introversion, prevalence of introversion across groups, and strategies for promoting workplace inclusion of introverts. We searched MEDLINE®, Embase, and PsycINFO up to February 11, 2021. Of 2,724 records, 21 studies were included. Introversion definitions were generally negative and dated. Robust prevalence data were unavailable, and no studies aimed to test strategies for promoting workplace inclusion of introversion. Nevertheless, literature suggests that employees who identify with modern definitions of introversion may benefit from individualized workplace strategies such as flexible working environments, work/home-life boundaries, varied team composition, provision of social support, and relaxation training. Further empirical studies in the industrial setting with robust designs using modernized personality definitions are warranted to support the development of effective strategies to increase inclusion of different personalities in the workplace.

description: Coupling high quality, suspended atomic membranes to specialized electrodes enables investigation of many novel phenomena, such as spin or Cooper pair transport in these two dimensional systems. However, many electrode materials are not stable in acids that are used to dissolve underlying substrates. Here we present a versatile and powerful multi-level lithographical technique to suspend atomic membranes, which can be applied to the vast majority of substrate, membrane and electrode materials. Using this technique, we fabricated suspended graphene devices with Al electrodes and mobility of 5500 cm^2/Vs. We also demonstrate, for the first time, fabrication and measurement of a free-standing thin Bi2Se3 membrane, which has low contact resistance to electrodes and a mobility of >~500 cm^2/Vs.

Like a Melody It Passes: Dasein and Perinatal Well-being
Creators: name: Humphries, Joan Margaret
Publisher: name: University of Calgary

description: Abstract

In this paper, the text found in Johannes Brahmsâ€™ Wie Melodien Zieht Es (Like a Melody It Passes) serves as a metaphor for selected key ideas that comprise Heideggerâ€™s Being and Time. Heideggerâ€™s conceptualization of Dasein (including Being and Temporality) are examined in the context of the poetry and applied to understandings of maternal emotional well-being. There is potential for increased insight based on analysis of these selected key concepts, which are described and related to the experience of becoming a mother. There is also significance in examining birthing because of current realities involved in Maternity Care, which includeÂ  standardized approaches to care. The poetry of Wie Melodien Zieht Es guides the flow of ideas that are outlined during the paper. The need for enhanced authentic interactions between nurses and women in the peri-natal period is exposed, engaging Heideggerian thought as a framework for possible enlightenment.

description: We conducted an X-ray spectroscopic study of the classical nova V2491 Cygni using our target-of-opportunity observation data with the Suzaku and XMM-Newton satellites as well as archived data with the Swift satellite. Medium-resolution (R~10-50) spectra were obtained using the X-ray CCD spectrometers at several post-nova epochs on days 9, 29, 40, 50, and 60-150 in addition to a pre-nova interval between days -322 and -100 all relative to the time when the classical nova was spotted. We found remarkable changes in the time series of the spectra: (a) In the pre-nova phase and on day 9, the 6.7 keV emission line from Fe XXV was significantly detected. (b) On day 29, no such emission line was found. (c) On day 40, the 6.7 keV emission line emerged again. (d) On days 50 and 60-150, three emission lines at 6.4, 6.7, and 7.0 keV respectively from quasi-neutral Fe, Fe XXV, and Fe XXVI were found. Statistically significant changes of the Fe K line intensities were confirmed between day 29 and 50. Based on these phenomena, we conclude that (1) the post-nova evolution can be divided into two different phases, (2) ejecta is responsible for the X-ray emission in the earlier phase, while rekindled accretion is for the later phase, and (3) the accretion process is considered to be reestablished as early as day 50 when the quasi-neutral Fe emission line emerged, which is a common signature of accretion from magnetic cataclysmic variables.

description: We perform first-principles calculations of wurtzite GaAs nanorods to explore the factors determining charge distributions in polar nanostructures. We show that both the direction and magnitude of the dipole moment $\mathbf{d}$ of a nanorod, and its electic field, depend sensitively on how its surfaces are terminated and do not depend strongly on the spontaneous polarization of the underlying lattice. We identify two physical mechanisms by which $\mathbf{d}$ is controlled by the surface termination, and we show that the excess charge on the nanorod ends is not strongly localized. We discuss the implications of these results for tuning nanocrystal properties, and for their growth and assembly.

description: In this interpretive essay, I attempt to unconceal the problematic history at play in Special Education in Alberta today, with a focus on â€œbehaviour studentsâ€ or their norm-referenced disability status. A brief, but central, anecdote is used to help reveal some of the everyday problems that arise in education because of the behavioural disability framing of students. I suggest that these problems are examples of Illichâ€™s appropriated notions of iatrogenesis and counterproductivity. As an applied emancipatory action, I call upon Gadamer and Ricoeur to help me interpretively turn the common, everyday understanding of pathology and self in the context of others as possibilities for understanding â€œbehaviour studentsâ€ anew.

By means of a suitable transformation, softened bars that are free of singularities are also obtained. As an application we study the equilibrium points and stability for the motion of test particles in the gravitational field for three models of rotating bars.

description: A survey of mid-IR gas-phase emission lines of H2, H2O and various atoms toward a sample of 43 embedded low-mass young stars in nearby star-forming regions is presented. The sources are selected from the Spitzer "Cores to Disks" (c2d) legacy program. The environment of embedded protostars is complex both in its physical structure (envelopes, outflows, jets, protostellar disks) and the physical processes (accretion, irradiation by UV and/or X-rays, excitation through slow and fast shocks) which take place. A key point is to spatially resolve the emission in the Spitzer-IRS spectra. An optimal extraction method is used to separate both spatially unresolved (compact, up to a few 100 AU) and spatially resolved (extended, 1000 AU or more) emission from the IRS spectra. The results are compared with the c2d disk sample and literature PDR and shock models to address the physical nature of the sources. Both compact and extended emission features are observed. Warm (Tex few 100 K) H2, observed through the pure rotational H2 S(0), S(1) and S(2) lines, and [S I] 25 mu emission is observed primarily in the extended component. [S I] is observed uniquely toward truly embedded sources and not toward disks. On the other hand hot (Tex>700 K) H2, observed primarily through the S(4) line, and [Ne II] emission is seen mostly in the compact component. [Fe II] and [Si II] lines are observed in both spatial components. Hot H2O emission is found in the compact component of some sources. The observed emission on >=1000 AU scales is characteristic of PDR emission and likely originates in the outflow cavities in the remnant envelope created by the stellar wind and jets from the embedded young stars. Weak shocks along the outflow wall can also contribute. The compact emission is likely of mixed origin, comprised of optically thick circumstellar disk and/or jet/outflow emission from the protostellar object.

Subjects: subject: Korea (South), Damunhwa, Hallyu

description: This thesis explores the current discourse on damunhwa (literally “multiculturalism,” but also describing any non-Korean presence) in a local, everyday context. I specifically examine how a narrow but changing definition of Koreanness has become a justifiable reason for exclusion and hostility against minority bodies in contemporary Korean society. I also look at how minorities in Korean society make sense of this phenomenon. This thesis is composed of two chapters. The first looks at how Korean residents of Bupyeong perceive damunhwa, separated into two sections. The second chapter explores how the Koreanness at the core of Hallyu products such as K-dramas, K-movies, and K-pop can project cultural imperialistic traits onto some groups of minorities in Korea.

description: We report the discovery of a bow shock around the high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) 4U 1907+09 using the Spitzer Space Telescope 24 $μ$m data (after Vela X-1 the second example of bow shocks associated with HMXBs). The detection of the bow shock implies that 4U 1907+09 is moving through the space with a high (supersonic) peculiar velocity. To confirm the runaway nature of 4U 1907+09, we measured its proper motion, which for an adopted distance to the system of 4 kpc corresponds to a peculiar transverse velocity of $\simeq 160 \pm 115$ km/s, meaning that 4U 1907+09 is indeed a runaway system and supporting the general belief that most of HMXBs possess high space velocities. The direction of motion of 4U 1907+09 inferred from the proper motion measurement is consistent with the orientation of the symmetry axis of the bow shock, and shows that the HMXB is running away from the Galactic plane. We also present the Spitzer images of the bow shock around Vela X-1 (a system similar to 4U 1907+09) and compare it with the bow shock generated by 4U 1907+09.

The influence of acetaminophen on task related attention
Creators: name: Mutti, Sumeet
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: The attenuating effects of acetaminophen on neuroaffective and neurocognitive processing, bear striking similarity to those of event-related processing observed during periods of off- task thoughts. The current study was designed to investigate whether acetaminophen impacts or alters normal patterns of neurocognitive disengagement with events in the external environment during off-task attentional states. In a placebo-controlled, between-groups design, participants performed a sustained attention to response task (SART) while event- related potentials (ERPs) to target events were recorded. At random intervals participants were queried for their attentional reports at the time of stoppage – either “on-task” or “off- task”. The frequency of off-task attentional reports and the ERPs generated by target events immediately preceding these subjective reports were assessed. Behaviourally, the frequency of off-task attentional reports was comparable between groups. Electrophysiologically, there were two findings of note. First, there was an overall main effect of attentional state on the amplitude of the P300 ERP component elicited target events, such that the mean amplitude was significantly attenuated during off-task vs. on-task attentional states in both the acetaminophen and placebo groups. Second, the amplitude of the LPP ERP component elicited by target events showed a significant decrease in amplitude during off-task attentional states that was specific to the acetaminophen group. Take together, my findings suggest that acetaminophen impacts neurocognitive disengagement during off-task attentional states, but not by increasing the attenuation of more basic stimulus categorization processes as indexed by the P300 ERP component, but rather, by catalyzing the attenuation of deeper, more contemplative stimulus evaluations, as indexed by the LPP ERP component.

description: The paper introduces scholarly Information Retrieval (IR) as a further dimension that should be considered in the science modeling debate. The IR use case is seen as a validation model of the adequacy of science models in representing and predicting structure and dynamics in science. Particular conceptualizations of scholarly activity and structures in science are used as value-added search services to improve retrieval quality: a co-word model depicting the cognitive structure of a field (used for query expansion), the Bradford law of information concentration, and a model of co-authorship networks (both used for re-ranking search results). An evaluation of the retrieval quality when science model driven services are used turned out that the models proposed actually provide beneficial effects to retrieval quality. From an IR perspective, the models studied are therefore verified as expressive conceptualizations of central phenomena in science. Thus, it could be shown that the IR perspective can significantly contribute to a better understanding of scholarly structures and activities.

description: Boxy and peanut-shaped bulges are seen in about half of edge-on disc galaxies. Comparisons of the photometry and major-axis gas and stellar kinematics of these bulges to simulations of bar formation and evolution indicate that they are bars viewed in projection. If the properties of boxy bulges can be entirely explained by assuming they are bars, then this may imply that their hosts are pure disc galaxies with no classical bulge. A handful of these bulges, including that of the Milky Way, have been observed to rotate cylindrically, i.e. with a mean stellar velocity independent of height above the disc. In order to assess whether such behaviour is ubiquitous in boxy bulges, and whether a pure disc interpretation is consistent with their stellar populations, we have analysed the stellar kinematics and populations of the boxy or peanut-shaped bulges in a sample of five edge-on galaxies. We placed slits along the major axis of each galaxy and at three offset but parallel positions to build up spatial coverage. The boxy bulge of NGC3390 rotates perfectly cylindrically within the spatial extent and uncertainties of the data. This is consistent with the metallicity and alpha-element enhancement of the bulge, which are the same as in the disk. This galaxy is thus a pure disc galaxy. The boxy bulge of ESO311-G012 also rotates very close to cylindrically. The boxy bulge of NGC1381 is neither clearly cylindrically nor non-cylindrically rotating, but it has a negative vertical metallicity gradient and is alpha-enhanced with respect to its disc, suggesting a composite bulge comprised of a classical bulge and bar (and possibly a discy pseudobulge) [abridged] Even this relatively small sample is sufficient to demonstrate that boxy bulges display a range of rotational and population properties, indicating that they do not form a homogeneous class of object.

Multiple implants impression accuracy of edentulous jaw : digital and conventional implant impression comparative study
Creators: name: AlTuwaijri, Sahr
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: Statement of problem: The use of digital impressions for implants are limited to single and short span bridges due to the few available studies supporting their usage in more complex cases. Therefore, its essential to evaluate their accuracy in full arch cases to benefit from their great advantages. Purpose: Evaluate and compare the accuracy of digital and conventional impressions for multiple straight and angulated implants of full arch implant supported fixed prosthesis. Also, assess the effect of implant angulation of 45° and increased length on the accuracy of both methods. Materials and methods: A stereolithographic (SLA) model of edentulous mandibular cast was fabricated and used to produce the master stone cast with four Nobel CC RC implants placed at tooth positions 3.4, 3.2, 4.2 and 4.4. Implants at #32 and 42 were perpendicular to the occlusal plane and parallel to each other while implants at #34 and 44 were distally angulated with 45°. Three impression methods were made from the master stone cast. Digital impressions were made with Trios (3Shape, Copenhagen, Denmark) intraoral scanner (IOS) (n=10). Conventional splinted open-tray implant–level impressions were made with Polyvinyl (PVS) (n=10) and Polyether (PE) (n=10). All stone casts were digitized using a 3shape D800 lab scanner to obtain STL (standard tessellation language) files, which then were imported into Rhino5 3D software. Six linear measurements were obtained for each cast to evaluate their discrepancies from the master cast. Absolute values of the linear deviation of each line among the three groups were compared using Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's post hoc test. Results: Significant difference (P< 0.05) were found between Trios and PVS and between PE and PVS for the distance between Implant #42 and 44. Also, for the distance between implant #32 and 44 between PE and Trios, and between PE and PVS. No significant difference was found for the other lines. Conclusion: The PE impression technique was more accurate than the others and all methods were considered clinically acceptable. The 45° degree of angulation and the increased length had affected the accuracy of PVS and Trios groups.

Direction Dependence in Supernova Data: Constraining Isotropy
Creators: name: Gupta, Shashikant
name: Saini, Tarun Deep
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We revise and extend the extreme value statistic, introduced in \cite{gup08}, to study directional dependence in the high redshift supernova data; arising either from departures from the cosmological principle or due to direction dependent statistical systematics in e data. We introduce a likelihood function that analytically marginalises over the Hubble constant, and use it to extend our previous statistic. We also introduce a new statistic that is sensitive to direction dependence arising from living off-centre inside a large void, as well as previously mentioned reasons for anisotropy. We show that for large data sets this statistic has a limiting form that can be computed analytically. We apply our statistics to the gold data sets from \cite{rie04} and \cite{rie07}, as in our previous work. Our revision and extension of previous statistic shows that 1) the effect of marginalsing over Hubble constant instead of using its best fit value has only a marginal effect on our results. However, correction of errors in our previous work reduce the level of non-Gaussianity in the 2004 gold data that was found in our earlier work. The revised results for the 2007 gold data show that the data is consistent with isotropy and Gaussianity. Our second statistic confirms these results.

description: Un condamné à mort s’est échappé or Le vent souffle ou il veut (1956), by Robert Bresson, Le Trou (1960) by Jacques Becker and Un Prophète (2009) by Jacques Audiard, are three films where the prison dimension is not a narrative device at the service of striking and adventurous actions, but constitutes a universe where we witness the radicalization of some human dynamics, a form of dramatic condensation that it reveals the qualities, potentials and miseries of human beings, thanks to the conditions of coercion and the claustrophobia in which the characters are forced to live.

Region of hadron-quark mixed phase in hybrid stars
Creators: name: Endo, Tomoki
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Hadron--quark mixed phase is expected in a wide region of the inner structure of hybrid stars. However, we show that the hadron--quark mixed phase should be restricted to a narrower region to because of the charge screening effect. The narrow region of the mixed phase seems to explain physical phenomena of neutron stars such as the strong magnetic field and glitch phenomena, and it would give a new cooling curve for the neutron star.

Fini istituzionali e riordini amministrativi. Implicazioni e aporie
Creators: name: Turrini Vita, Riccardo
Publisher: name: DNA – Di Nulla Academia
Year: 2023

description: Il contributo dell’A. muove dalla divergenza sempre più vistosa fra il riconoscimento delle esigenze personali e strutturali dei detenuti (avvenuta negli ultimi 20 anni tanto nella produzione legislativa quanto nella giurisprudenza italiana e della Corte europea dei diritti umani) e l’efficacia delle amministrazioni chiamate a garantire le relative prestazioni. Egli ne ravvisa la causa prossima (soprattutto successiva al 2006) nella dislocazione di tali competenze fra molti enti ed organi estranei alla amministrazione penitenziaria. L’enfasi istituzionale sul momento del controllo in luogo dell’attenzione alla prestazione concreta ne è un aspetto e per l’A. si inserisce del moto internazionale di scivolamento verso il Richterstaat. Svolte alcune precisazioni sulla centralità del carcere nella esecuzione delle pene in Italia, che viene erroneamente ripetuta da molti degli interessati alla disciplina, l’A. ha quindi esaminato nel dettaglio i casi più vistosi di inadeguatezza dei mezzi umani e strumentali (offerta rieducativa, prestazioni sanitarie e psichiatriche, reclutamento del corpo dirigente) rispetto al bisogno esistente nei ristretti. Ha nondimeno ricordato alcune azioni di governo e di amministrazione che paiono invertire, almeno in parte, l’indirizzo lamentato.

description: Spring of 2007 will mark the 10th anniversary of the passage of Maryland’s Smart Growth and Neighborhood Conservation Initiative; an effort designed to discourage sprawl development, foster more compact communities, protect the best remaining farms and open space in the state, and save taxpayers from the growing cost of providing services and infrastructure to serve far-flung development. Almost before its various provisions took effect in 1997 and 1998, the Maryland initiative generated interest and acclaim across the country. It received numerous awards and became the principal legacy of the program’s primary architect, former Governor Parris N. Glen- dening. Governors in other states, such as New Jersey, Colorado and Massachusetts, instituted their own “smart growth” proposals, often modeled after portions of the Maryland program. Even the popularity and wide usage of the now omnipresent phrase “smart growth” can be attributed in large part to the Maryland program. But, what has been the effect of Maryland’s Smart Growth pro- gram? Looking at it some ten years later, has it worked? Did it accomplish what it was designed to do? What have been the strengths and weaknesses of the Maryland approach, and how can lessons from the Maryland experience be used to offer a new set of policymakers in Maryland, as well as elsewhere in the nation, practical suggestions on how to make smart growth smarter?
Prima di Santo Stefano. Sulle carceri civili a Napoli in antico regime
Creators: name: D’Alessio, Silvana
Publisher: name: DNA – Di Nulla Academia
Year: 2023

description: Il saggio si focalizza soprattutto su fonti narrative che aiutano a mettere in rilievo le peculiarità delle carceri civili (non ecclesiastiche) a Napoli, dalla fine del Cinquecento alla seconda metà del Settecento, cercando di favorire una comparazione tra le carceri nei vari stati europei in antico regime e in seguito. La condizione dei carcerati era resa più difficile dall’obbligo di pagare ‘diritti’ introdotti dai carcerieri. Alla promiscuità, caos, relativa libertà anche di far rimanere in carcere le proprie mogli o prostitute cercano di rimediare i Gesuiti. Carlo di Borbone dovrà affrontare vari problemi irrisolti, rispondendo ad un appello.

description: We show that star formation in the giant HII region NGC 5471 has been ongoing during the past 100 Myr. Using HST/WFPC2 F547M and F675W, ground based JHKs, and GALEX FUV and NUV images, we have conducted a photometric study of the star formation history in the massive giant extragalactic HII region NGC 5471 in M101. We perform a photometric study of the colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) of the resolved stars, and an integrated analysis of the main individual star forming clusters and of NGC 5471 as a whole. The integrated UV-optical-nIR photometry for the whole region provides two different reference ages, 8 Myr and 60 Myr, revealing a complex star formation history, clearly confirmed by the CMD resolved stellar photometry analysis. The spatial distribution of the stars shows that the star formation in NGC 5471 has proceeded along the whole region during, at least, the last 100 Myr. The current ionizing clusters are enclosed within a large bubble, which is likely to have been produced by the stars that formed in a major event < 20 Myr ago.

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: This paper examines the performance degradation of a MOS device fabricated on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) due to the undesirable short-channel effects (SCE) as the channel length is scaled to meet the increasing demand for high-speed high-performing ULSI applications. The review assesses recent proposals to circumvent the SCE in SOI MOSFETs and a short evaluation of strengths and weaknesses specific to each attempt is presented. A new device structure called the dual-material gate (DMG) SOI MOSFET is discussed and its efficacy in suppressing SCEs such as drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL), channel length modulation (CLM) and hot-carrier effects, all of which affect the reliability of ultra-small geometry MOSFETs, is assessed.

description: We propose the use of quantum polarization spectroscopy for detecting multi-particle entanglement of ultracold atoms in optical lattices. This method, based on a light-matter interface employing the quantum Farady effect, allows for the non destructive measurement of spin-spin correlations. We apply it to the specific example of a one dimensional spin chain and reconstruct its phase diagram using the light signal, readily measurable in experiments with ultracold atoms. Interestingly, the same technique can be extended to detect quantum many-body entanglement in such systems.
