description: Serials were an important element of commercial programming from the 1930s to the 1960s because they performed particular functions for stations and advertisers. Drama was expensive, however, so broadcasters had to organise cooperative production of recorded serials for distribution by networking, a process which continually challenged the Government regulations designed to prevent just that. The success of the broadcasters in popularising broadcast advertising provoked newspapers to involve themselves in broadcasting and stations to seek a reciprocal advantage through association with newspapers. The Government’s response was to restrict the formation of chains of ownership and/or control, but to permit the operation of cooperative networks which made country stations economic inclusions in sponsorship contracts. The demand for serials encouraged the formation of many independent production companies, but competition from cheap American transcriptions depressed their sales and prices. Moreover, the small size of the local market meant that many found it necessary to sell overseas to make a profit, so serials which had already been shaped to appeal to the mass audience in Australia, had to be further modified - 'internationalised' - to make them accessible to foreign mass audiences. This loss of Australian-ness, plus the circulation of American serials, led to a still-unresolved discussion about the nature of Australian 'culture', whether it should be protected, and if so, how best to do it. During the 1940s and 1950s, the radio serial industry was able to support a great many artists and technicians. The economics of the industry, however, were such that its viability depended on their accepting low fees and onerous working conditions. After 1956, wherever a television station began broadcasting, audiences lost interest in radio drama, and so too did advertisers. Sales of new serials began to fall off, and by 1960 the serial production industry was dead, and most of the artists unemployed.
From Hermes to Holmes: manifestations of the trickster as culture-hero in early detective fiction

description: This thesis aims to explore the relationship between two culture-heroes: the trickster and the detective. Like the trickster, the detective is often shrewd, cunning and resourceful. These qualities are often mirrored by the criminals whom the detectives confront, consequently, detection often becomes a contest between two tricksters. One of the clearest examples of this phenomenon can be found in the early British tradition of the detective as exemplified by the detective figures of four different periods in early detective fiction. Among the earliest examples of the detective figure, Poe’s Dupin, Dickens’ Inspector Bucket and Collins’ Sergeant Cuff (along with Marion Halcombe, Magdalen Vanstone and Captain Wragge) provide working models for later detective figures. Following from these traditions, Sherlock Holmes represents the apotheosis of the detective figure. Furthermore, the Holmes story also introduces two important criminal rivals: Professor Moriarty and Irene Adler. The untimely “demise” of Sherlock Holmes introduced the period collectively referred to as being that of “The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes.” The detectives of this period were innovative not least because they included detective figures such as the female detectives, Loveday Brooke and Lady Molly, as well as the Armchair Detective, The Old Man in the Corner. As one of the Rivals of Sherlock Holmes, Dr Thorndyke is not only credited as one of the earliest examples of the Forensic Detective figure but also bridges the Rivals period and the Golden Age of Detective Fiction period. Finally, as one of the most famous figures of the Golden Age period, Miss Marple is one of the most successful examples of both the female detective and the Armchair Detective. The mythic underpinning of the detective figure drawn from these periods provides an insight into a contemporary culture-hero figure, the detective, by framing it in the context of one of the oldest culture-hero figure, the trickster.

description: Proton transfer is a ubiquitous process in organic and biological chemistry, particularly prevalent in biological or designed asymmetric catalysis. Our initial work developed an acid regulated, asymmetric organocatalysis of a model proton-transfer reaction known as the aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman (aza-MBH) reaction, in which three catalytic motifs cooperate, within a BINAP chiral framework, to catalyse the aza-MBH reaction between methyl vinyl ketone and aryl N-tosyl imines only when activated by external benzoic acid (BzOH). New questions now focus on the exact nature of this switchable catalytic proficiency. This thesis work will uncover mechanistic details that underpin this switchability. In Chapter 2, the origin of the acid-regulated catalytic proficiency in our trifunctional aza-MBH reaction was investigated by a combination of 2D NMR spectroscopy, molecular mechanics and DFT calculations. An ensemble solution structure of a new proton-shuttling ground state intermediate was identified and elucidated. In Chapter 3, the role of the acid additive in the C-C bond formation and proton transfer was investigated, and a new conjugative mode of catalysis was revealed after discovering a surprising role of the substrate in commanding the proton shuttle for the subsequent steps of C-C bond formation and proton transfer. In Chapter 4, new substrates for this conjugative mode of catalysis in the aza-MBH reaction were identified. Finally, in Chapter 5, kinetic differentiation of cognate substrates through this conjugative mode of catalysis in the aza-MBH reaction was propagated by the Soai reaction to create an asymmetric ripple for superior chiral amplification outcomes. It was then demonstrated that chemical diversity and chirality can both expand through chemical assemblies that undergo conjugative catalysis driven by coordinated proton transfer.

description: Verlinde (2016) has recently proposed that spacetime and gravity may emerge from an underlying microscopic theory. In a de Sitter spacetime, such emergent gravity (EG) contains an additional gravitational force due to dark energy, which may explain the mass discrepancies observed in galactic systems without the need of dark matter. For a point mass, EG is equivalent to Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). We show that this equivalence does not hold for finite-size galaxies: there are significant differences between EG and MOND in the inner regions of galaxies. We confront theoretical predictions with the empirical Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR). We find that (i) EG is consistent with the observed RAR only if we substantially decrease the fiducial stellar mass-to-light ratios; the resulting values are in tension with other astronomical estimates; (ii) EG predicts that the residuals around the RAR should correlate with radius; such residual correlation is not observed.

Plasma protein biomarkers of chemotherapy response in colorectal cancer

description: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cause of cancer death worldwide, responsible for over 600,000 or 1.1% of total deaths. For CRC patients with metastatic disease, chemotherapy is the recommended first-line treatment. Predictive biomarkers would be useful in differentiating patients who are likely to derive better outcomes from chemotherapy from those patients that will not, thereby improving patient outcomes and potentially curbing healthcare costs. We hypothesised that a plasma protein-based test examining liver-derived plasma proteins may prove useful as a surrogate of liver function during drug metabolism. In this doctoral research, selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry was used in a search for potential plasma protein predictive biomarkers related to chemotherapy response in metastatic CRC patients. In Chapter 3, technical and biological variation relevant to plasma proteome analysis was explored using specimens from healthy individuals. Outcomes from targeted SRM experiments investigating quantitative levels of plasma proteins from healthy individuals over time-courses demonstrated the relative stability of the selected plasma proteome. Research in Chapter 4 detailed the discovery of candidate plasma biomarkers predictive of combination fluoropyrimidine-oxaliplatin chemotherapy response in CRC patients. iTRAQ labelled plasma was used for discovery experiments, then promising candidates were verified by SRM. One protein identified in these experiments, fibronectin, showed promise as a predictive marker. Chapter 5 followed up on preliminary data from my Honours degree research that suggested a specific tryptic peptide from vitronectin may predict chemotherapy response. Vitronectin, a highly adhesive extracellular matrix glycoprotein is known to promote cancer metastasis through interaction with integrin binding partners, similar to the actions of fibronectin within cancer development. Here, I developed new SRM assays to examine additional vitronectin peptides and acquired new data using a more advanced mass spectrometer. Immunoblotting was also conducted to support the results. Chapter 6 outlined SRM experiments utilising synthesised isotopically-labelled peptide standards to quantitate vitronectin and fibronectin peptides, in a larger CRC patient cohort. Vitronectin was confirmed to be reduced in plasma levels taken at baseline in unresponsive chemotherapy patients, compared with patients that responded to treatment. In summary, this thesis described how proteomic methodologies were used to identify and verify new candidate plasma protein biomarkers that predict for response to first-line chemotherapy in advanced CRC patients. The favourable findings for vitronectin in this cohort warrant more extensive investigation in larger patient cohorts.
Dysregulation of actin dynamics in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

description: Mutations in the C9ORF72 (chromosome 9 open reading frame 72) gene account for 40% of familial cases of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and pathological forms of TDP-43 in motor neurons are present in almost all cases of ALS. Currently, there is no effective treatment for this disorder. Therefore, given their importance in ALS, understanding the pathological roles of C9ORF72 and TDP-43 is crucial for developing effective therapeutic strategies. The mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration in ALS are still not fully understood. Whilst defects in cytoskeletal organisation and cytoskeletal proteins have been previously associated with ALS, the role of actin filaments and actin binding proteins in ALS has not been previously examined. The overall aim of the studies described in this thesis was to examine the regulation of actin dynamics and actin binding proteins in C9ORF72 and TDP-43 related ALS. Firstly, the normal cellular function of C9ORF72 was examined in Chapter 3. Here it was demonstrated that C9ORF72 is an actin binding protein that regulates actin dynamics. Furthermore, the uDENN domain of C9ORF72 is required for this activity via cofilin-mediated signalling mechanisms. These studies therefore provide novel insights into the normal cellular function of C9ORF72. Secondly, in Chapter 4, it was demonstrated that actin dynamics is disturbed by pathological forms of TDP-43 in cells expressing cytoplasmic TDP-43, in the TDP-43 rNLS mice model and in sporadic ALS (SALS) patient tissues. These studies therefore demonstrate that TDP-43 pathology is associated with increased actin polymerisation, possibly mediated by a direct interaction between actin and TDP-43. Moreover, actin polymerisation causes both mis-localisation of TDP-43 to the cytoplasm and stress granule formation, implying that actin polymerisation induces pathological events relevant to ALS. Finally, the regulation of actin-binding and regulatory proteins in the TDP-43 rNLS mice model and in SALS patients was examined in Chapter 5. Cofilin phosphorylation and profilin-1 expression was enhanced in SALS patients. Furthermore, increased levels of Rac1/cdc42 and Limk1 phosphorylation were also detected, thus providing mechanistic insights into these observations. Similarly, increased levels of profilin-1 and cofilin phosphorylation correlated with disease course pathologically and phenotypically in TDP-43 rNLS mice, consistent with the findings obtained in SALS patients. While actin related proteins; Arp2, Arp3 and ARPC3 were decreased at a later stage in TDP-43 rNLS mice. In conclusion, this thesis provides novel insights into the mechanisms of neurodegeneration in ALS. Importantly, it identifies dysregulation of actin dynamics and actin binding proteins as novel disease mechanisms in both C9ORF72 and TDP-43 associated ALS.
Cubical Geometry in the Polygonalisation Complex

description: We introduce the polygonalisation complex of a surface, a cube complex whose vertices correspond to polygonalisations. This is a geometric model for the mapping class group and it is motivated by works of Harer, Mosher and Penner. Using properties of the flip graph, we show that the midcubes in the polygonalisation complex can be extended to a family of embedded and separating hyperplanes, parametrised by the arcs in the surface. We study the crossing graph of these hyperplanes and prove that it is quasi-isometric to the arc complex. We use the crossing graph to prove that, generically, different surfaces have different polygonalisation complexes. The polygonalisation complex is not CAT(0), but we can characterise the vertices where Gromov's link condition fails. This gives a tool for proving that, generically, the automorphism group of the polygonalisation complex is the (extended) mapping class group of the surface.

description: The thesis aims to examine the Ancient Greek heritage and its echoes in the works of Edmund Husserl and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, I undertake this inquiry by focusing on the issue raised by Husserl in his later writings, of the historicity of rationality, and by tracing the legacy of core concepts, such as logos, physis, arche and telos. The first part critically reconstructs the arguments behind Husserl’s teleological characterisation of European humanity. The second part studies the development of a post-Husserlian project in the work of Merleau-Ponty. I focus especially on his account of Husserl’s Origin of Geometry, and the related sections in Eye and Mind, and The Visible and The Invisible. I try to defend the suggestion that key features of Merleau-Ponty’s post-Husserlian project come into sharper relief if they are read within a framework that relates his thinking to Pre-Socratic themes, notably through his novel use of some of the key concepts mentioned above.

description: We define Wick-rotations by considering pseudo-Riemannian manifolds as real slices of a holomorphic Riemannian manifold. From a frame bundle viewpoint Wick-rotations between different pseudo-Riemannian spaces can then be studied through their structure groups which are real forms of the corresponding complexified Lie group (different real forms $O(p,q)$ of the complex Lie group $O(n,\mathbb{C})$). In this way, we can use real GIT (geometric invariant theory) to derive several new results regarding the existence, and non-existence, of such Wick-rotations. As an explicit example, we Wick rotate a known $G_2$-holonomy manifold to a pseudo-Riemannian manifold with split-$G_2$ holonomy.

description: Soon after the observation of the first black hole binary (BHB) by advanced LIGO (aLIGO), GW150914, it was realised that such a massive system would have been observable in the milli-Hz (mHz) band few years prior to coalescence. Operating in the frequency range 0.1-100 mHz, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) can potentially detect up to thousands inspiralling BHBs, based on the coalescence rates inferred from the aLIGO first observing run (O1). The vast majority of them (those emitting at $f<10$ mHz) will experience only a minor frequency drift during LISA lifetime, resulting in signals similar to those emitted by galactic white dwarf binaries. At $f>10$ mHz however, several of them will sweep through the LISA band, eventually producing loud coalescences in the audio-band probed by aLIGO. This contribution reviews the scientific potential of these new class of LISA sources which, in the past few months, has been investigated in several contexts, including multi-messenger and multi-band gravitational wave astronomy, BHB astrophysics, tests of alternative theories of gravity and cosmography.

Hints for hidden planetary companions to hot Jupiters in stellar binaries
Creators: name: Hamers, Adrian S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: Searches for stellar companions to hot Jupiters (HJs) have revealed that planetary systems hosting a HJ are approximately three times more likely to have a stellar companion with a semimajor axis between 50 and 2000 AU, compared to field stars. This correlation suggests that HJ formation is affected by the stellar binary companion. A potential model is high-eccentricity migration, in which the binary companion induces high-eccentricity Lidov-Kozai (LK) oscillations in the proto-HJ orbit, triggering orbital migration driven by tides. A pitfall of this `binary-LK' model is that the observed stellar binaries hosting HJs are typically too wide to produce HJs in sufficient numbers, because of suppression by short-range forces. We propose a modification to the binary-LK model in which there is a second giant planet orbiting the proto-HJ at a semimajor axis of several tens of AU. Such companions are currently hidden to observations, but their presence could be manifested by a propagation of the perturbation of the stellar binary companion inwards to the proto-HJ, thereby overcoming the barrier imposed by short-range forces. Our model does not require the planetary companion orbit to be eccentric and/or inclined with respect to the proto-HJ, but its semimajor axis should lie in a specific range given the planetary mass and binary semimajor axis, and the inclination with respect to the binary should be near $40^\circ$ or $140^\circ$. Our prediction for planetary companions to HJs in stellar binaries should be testable by future observations.

Silent voices: a study of English teachers' responses to curriculum change
Creators: name: O'Sullivan, Kerry-Ann
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis analyses the nature of the discourses and practices of English teachers as they implement major reform to a senior curriculum. The introduction in New South Wales, Australia, of a mandatory new Higher School Certificate syllabus in 2000 challenged the prevailing paradigms of the school subject and disturbed the existing beliefs and pedagogies of English practitioners. This period of change provides the historical context for the present investigation. A major focus of the study is the relationship between teachers’ discourses about curriculum change and their actual practices. Having presented its findings about that relationship, the thesis goes on to explore the implications for curriculum change theory. The study was developed predominantly within a qualitative framework through semi-structured interviews with fifteen teachers from a range of secondary schools from both the government and non-government systems in metropolitan and non metropolitan locations in New South Wales. The participants, who included eight Head Teachers of English and seven teachers of English, were identified using a purposive sampling technique and were chosen from self-selecting respondents to an initial statewide survey. The data-gathering techniques also included the collection of a unit of work prepared by each teacher for study in the HSC Standard English course. The theoretical perspectives of grounded theory, discourse analysis, and curriculum change informed the analysis of the data. Contradictions and ironies were found to be inherent in every aspect of the teachers’ discourses and practices. How the teachers perceived their implementation of the early stages of significant curriculum change was markedly at odds with their classroom actions. Paradoxically the more active the teachers became in trying to come to terms with curriculum change the further they seemed to enshrine and confirm the professional identities they had previously established. The study showed that the teachers’ impressions that they were implementing the new syllabus often concealed the fact that they were actually just adopting appearances of change. It is well recognised by theorists that it takes some time for teachers to absorb and adopt change. It is argued here, however, that because English teachers have extremely strong professional identities and subject values, the close alignment of these with their sense of self tends to make them highly resistant to change at any deep level. It would seem that for professional development to be successful in a situation of this kind much closer attention needs to be paid to teachers’ voices, and to how they view their subject and their sense of self in relation to it. It is only with this as a starting point that new paradigms and practices are likely to become firmly established.

description: Jacques Rancière's philosophy is a complex and intricate network of history, politics, poetics and their people. Each episode of his philosophical writings is an accumulative body of work where oblique connections are made to his earlier works; these are all held together by his conceptual analysis of modern being. This thesis attempts to demonstrate this by interconnecting his key concepts alongside an analysis of the spatial and temporal conditions expressed in his work. In particular, certain spatio-temporal moments of emancipation that feature in his work are inherently aesthetic, containing both ethical and political dimensions.

description: We present significantly improved measurements of turbulent velocities in the hot gaseous halos of nearby giant elliptical galaxies. Using deep XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS ) observations and a combination of resonance scattering and direct line broadening methods, we obtain well bounded constraints for 13 galaxies. Assuming that the turbulence is isotropic, we obtain a best fit mean 1D turbulent velocity of ~110 km/s. This implies a typical 3D Mach number ~0.45 and a typical non-thermal pressure contribution of ~6 per cent in the cores of nearby massive galaxies. The intrinsic scatter around these values is modest - consistent with zero, albeit with large statistical uncertainty - hinting at a common and quasi-continuous mechanism sourcing the velocity structure in these objects. Using conservative estimates of the spatial scales associated with the observed turbulent motions, we find that turbulent heating can be sufficient to offset radiative cooling in the inner regions of these galaxies (<10 kpc, typically 2-3 kpc). The full potential of our analysis methods will be enabled by future X-ray microcalorimeter observations.

Skills and rural-urban wage differences in Australia
Creators: name: Ho, Phuong
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Growing research on the urban wage premium shows that workers in urban areas earn more than workers with similar skill levels in rural areas. In Australia, little is known about whether the urban wage premium exists or the magnitude of the premium. Using a panel approach, the study finds that differences in cognitive ability and personality traits have little impact on rural-urban wage differentials. When other differences in individual characteristics are considered, Australian workers in large urban centers still earn around 7.5% more than workers in rural areas. The relationship between local economy size and local wages is robust when endogeneity issues are accounted for by instruments. It is not evidenced from the study that stayers in urban areas enjoy higher wage growth than stayers in rural areas as the learning hypothesis suggests. It is more likely that rural-to-urban migrants go through a period of social acclimatization when they do not receive a full urban wage premium upon arrival but experience high wage growth the following year. The analysis undertaken in this dissertation suggest that in Australia, like in other countries, how much we earn depends not only on our abilities but also external factors.

description: We report results of an investigation of the temperature dependence of the magnon and phonon frequencies in NiO. A combination of Brillouin - Mandelstam and Raman spectroscopies allowed us to elucidate the evolution of the phonon and magnon spectral signatures from the Brillouin zone center (GHz range) to the second-order peaks from the zone boundary (THz range). The temperature-dependent behavior of the magnon and phonon bands in the NiO spectrum indicates the presence of antiferromagnetic (AF) order fluctuation or a persistent AF state at temperatures above the Neel temperature (T=523 K). Tuning the intensity of the excitation laser provides a method for disentangling the features of magnons from acoustic phonons without the application of a magnetic field. Our results are useful for interpretation of the inelastic-light scattering spectrum of NiO, and add to the knowledge of its magnon properties important for THz spintronic devices.

description: Time reversal symmetry is a fundamental property of many quantum mechanical systems. The relation between statistical physics and time reversal is subtle and not all statistical theories conserve this particular symmetry, most notably hydrodynamic equations and kinetic equations such as the Boltzmann equation. Here we consider quantum kinetic generalizations of the Boltzmann equation by using the method of reduced density operators leading to the quantum generalization of the BBGKY-(Bogolyubov, Born, Green, Kirkwood, Yvon) hierachy. We demonstrate that all commonly used approximations, including Vlasov, Hartree-Fock and the non-Markovian generalizations of the Landau, T-matrix and Lenard-Balescu equations are originally time-reversal invariant, and we formulate a general criterion for time reversibility of approximations to the quantum BBGKY-hierarchy. Finally, we illustrate, on the example of the Born approximation, how irreversibility is introduced into quantum kinetic theory via the Markov limit, making the connection with the standard Boltzmann equation. This paper is a complement to paper I [Scharnke {\it et al.}, submitted to J. Math. Phys., arXiv:1612.08033] where time-reversal invariance of quantum-kinetic equations was analyzed in the frame of the independent nonequilibrium Green functions formalism.

description: Starting from the generalized pp waves that are exact vacuum solutions of general relativity with a cosmological constant, we construct a new family of exact vacuum solutions of Poincaré gauge theory, the generalized pp waves with torsion. The ansatz for torsion is chosen in accordance with the wave nature of the solutions. For a subfamily of these solutions, the metric is dynamically determined by the torsion.

description: There is a deep and interesting connection between the topological properties of a graph and the behaviour of the dynamical system defined on it. We analyse various kind of graphs, with different contrasting connectivity or degree characteristics, using the signless Laplacian matrix. We expose the theoretical results about the eigenvalue of the matrix and how they are related to the dynamical system. Then, we perform numerical computations on real-like graphs and observe the resulting system. Comparing the theoretical and numerical results we found a perfect consistency. Furthermore, we define a metric which takes in account the "rigidity" of the graph and enables us to relate all together the topological properties of the graph, the signless Laplacian matrix and the dynamical system.

BL Lacertae: X-ray spectral evolution and a black-hole mass estimate

description: We present an analysis of the spectral properties observed in X-rays from active galactic nucleus BL Lacertae using RXTE, Suzaku, ASCA, BeppoSAX, and Swift observations. The total time covered by these observations is approximately 20 years. We show that this source undergoes X-ray spectral transitions from the low hard state (LHS) through the intermediate state (IS) to the high soft state (HSS) during these observations. During the RXTE observations (1997 -- 2001, {180 ks, for a total 145 datasets}), the source was approximately 75%, 20% and only 5 of the time in the IS, LHS, and HSS, respectively. We also used Swift observations (470 datasets, for a total 800 ks), which occurred during 12 years (2005 -- 2016), the (0.3 -- 200 keV) data of BeppoSAX (1997 -- 2000, 160 ks), and the (0.3 -- 10 keV) data of ASCA (1995 -- 1999, 160 ks). Two observations of Suzaku (2006, 2013; 50 ks) in combinations with long-term RXTE and Swift data-sets allow us to describe all spectral states of BL Lac. The spectra of BL Lac are well fitted by the bulk motion Comptonization (BMC) model for all spectral states. We have established the photon index saturation level, Gamma_{sat}=2.2+/-0.1, in the Gamma vs. mass accretion rate (Mdot) correlation. This Gamma-Mdot correlation allows us to estimate the black-hole (BH) mass in BL Lac to be M_{BH}~3x10^7 M_sol for a distance of 300 Mpc. For the BH mass estimate, we use the scaling method taking stellar-mass Galactic BHs 4U~1543--47 and GX~339--4 as reference sources. The Gamma-Mdot correlation revealed in BL Lac is similar to those in a number of stellar-mass Galactic BHs and two recently studied intermediate-mass extragalactic BHs. It clearly shows the correlation along with the very extended $Γ$ saturation at ~ 2.2. This is robust observational evidence for the presence of a BH in BL Lac.

Characterising swamp biodiversity and community structure with environmental DNA

description: In the coastal highlands of the Sydney Basin, Australia, upland swamps are a characteristic environment that supports a unique diversity of biota. These ecosystems carry out essential services including hydrological functions and carbon sequestration. They are currently listed as endangered ecosystems under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995, with some of the main threats including mining practices and urbanisation. Previous research on these environments have focused on their geomorphological and hydrological features, with little research on the interactions between local environmental factors and species diversity across spatial scales. This thesis used environmental DNA and metabarcoding techniques to characterise prokaryotic and eukaryotic components of biodiversity across three distinct swamp regions; the Blue Mountains, Upper Nepean State Conservation Area and Budderoo National Park. The relationship between these communities and environmental variables was investigated, as well as their diversity and composition across local and regional scales. Our results indicated that prokaryotic communities were shaped by local environmental variables to a greater extent compared to eukaryotic communities, which were more influenced by geographic distance. This research provides an insight into the uniqueness of swamp biodiversity across multiple spatial scales whilst also demonstrating a novel approach for the future monitoring of swamp ecosystems -- abstract.

description: Intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering surgery has been shown to alter microvascular density in glaucoma patients. The aim of this study is to report changes in retinal flow density (FD) over the course of treatment with the Preserflo MicroShunt, using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). 34 eyes from 34 patients who underwent Preserflo MicroShunt implantation were prospectively enrolled in this study. OCTA imaging was conducted at the superficial (SCP), deep (DCP) and radial peripapillary plexus (RPC) levels. The progression of FD and IOP was assessed at different time points from baseline to six months postoperatively for the entire patient population, as well as disease severity subgroups. The Preserflo MicroShunt achieved a significant reduction in IOP over the course of six months (median: 8 mmHg; p < 0.01). FD values of the SCP and DCP did not show significant fluctuations, even after adjusting for disease severity. FD of the RPC decreased significantly over the course of six months postoperatively from 42.31 at baseline to 39.59 at six months postoperatively (p < 0.01). The decrease in peripapillary FD was strongest in patients with advanced glaucoma (median: −3.58). These observations hint towards dysfunctional autoregulatory mechanisms in capillaries surrounding the optic nerve head in advanced glaucoma. In comparison, the microvascular structure of the macula appeared more resilient to changes in IOP.

description: Progressive loss of lung function is a hallmark of Chronic Obstructive PulmonaryDisease (COPD). People with COPD are classified according to the degree of airflow obstruction measured by spirometry. They are categorised into stages: mild, moderate,severe or very severe. As COPD is now considered a heterogeneous disease with manyother predictors of mortality, such as exercise capacity and dyspnoea levels providing important therapeutic targets, an additional classification system is required that moreaccurately addresses these facets of the disease. This research, including a review of the literature regarding COPD phenotypes,proposes an additional classification system that encompasses the different phenotypesin COPD. A systematic review was performed to comment on the methodological qualityof the evidence for including spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in the management of COPD. The methodology describes an algorithm that classifies the participants of arandomised controlled trial (RCT) into one of four phenotypes. Phenotype groupanalyses that examined the effect of SMT and exercise on the different phenotypes wereperformed. The results of the analysis showed that there was a difference between phenotypes in response to intervention, and that different proportions of phenotypes within groups may have influenced the results of the original RCT. It is concluded that performing a phenotype analysis provides new informationabout underlying disease process in COPD, particularly in response to SMT and exercise.
