description: Under certain conditions sound waves in fluids experience an acoustic horizon with analogue properties to those of a black hole event horizon. In particular, a draining bathtub-like model can give rise to a rotating acoustic horizon and hence a rotating black hole (acoustic) analogue. We show that sound waves, when enclosed in a cylindrical cavity, can form stationary waves around such rotating acoustic black holes. These acoustic perturbations display similar properties to the scalar clouds that have been studied around Kerr and Kerr-Newman black holes; thus they are dubbed acoustic clouds. We make the comparison between scalar clouds around Kerr black holes and acoustic clouds around the draining bathtub explicit by studying also the properties of scalar clouds around Kerr black holes enclosed in a cavity. Acoustic clouds suggest the possibility of testing, experimentally, the existence and properties of black hole clouds, using analog models.

description: Malignant pleural effusion is associated with a poor prognosis and, while risk stratification models exist, prior studies have not evaluated pleural fluid resolution and its association with survival. We performed a retrospective review of patients diagnosed with malignant pleural effusion between 2013 and 2017, evaluating patient demographics, pleural fluid and serum composition, and procedural and treatment data using Cox regression analysis to evaluate associations with survival. In total, 123 patients were included in the study, with median survival from diagnosis being 4.8 months. Resolution of malignant pleural fluid was associated with a significant survival benefit, even when accounting for factors such as placement of an indwelling pleural catheter, anti-cancer therapy, pleural fluid cytology, cancer pheno/genotypes, and pleural fluid characteristics. Elevated fluid protein, placement of an indwelling pleural catheter, and treatment with targeted or hormone therapies were associated with pleural fluid resolution. We conclude that the resolution of pleural fluid accumulation in patients with malignant pleural effusion is associated with a survival benefit possibility representing a surrogate marker for treatment of the underlying metastatic cancer. These findings support the need to better understand the mechanism of fluid resolution in patients with malignant pleural effusion as well as the tumor–immune interplay occurring with the malignant pleural space.

description: Africa has been significantly affected by the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It is noteworthy in this context that this is the continent with the poorest and most vulnerable populations to infectious diseases. Since the emergence of the pandemic, scientific journals have published much literature on the topic; however, among the research articles published from June to December 2020, only 1.5% mentioned Africa in their titles or abstracts. Moreover, data from Sub-Saharan Africa underestimates the pandemic due to several factors, such as the overall low testing capacity and lack of laboratories, limited access to and weakness of health services, and political constraints, all of which suggest an imperative need for better reporting and further research on COVID-19 in Africa.

description: Inspired in a previous work by McClure and Dyer (Classical Quantum Gravity 23, 1971 (2006)), we analyze some solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations which were originally written to describe charged black holes in cosmological backgrounds. A detailed analysis of the electromagnetic sources for a sufficiently general metric is performed, and then we focus on deriving the electromagnetic four-current as well as the conserved electric charge of each metric. The charged McVittie solution is revisited and a brief study of its causal structure is performed, showing that it may represent a charged black hole in an expanding universe, with the black hole horizon being formed at infinite late times. Charged versions of solutions originally put forward by Vaidya (Vd) and Sultana and Dyer (SD) are also analyzed. It is shown that the charged Sultana-Dyer metric requires a global electric current, besides a central (pointlike) electric charge. With the aim of comparing to the charged McVittie metric, new charged solutions of Vd and SD type are considered. In these cases, the original mass and charge parameters are replaced by particular functions of the cosmological time. In the new generalized charged Vaidya metric the black hole horizon never forms, whereas in the new generalized Sultana-Dyer case both the Cauchy and the black hole horizons develop at infinite late times. A charged version of the Thakurta metric is also studied here. It is also a new solution. As in the charged Sultana-Dyer case, the natural source of the electromagnetic field is a central electric charge with an additional global electric current. The global structure is briefly studied and it is verified that the corresponding spacetime may represent a charged black hole in a cosmological background. All the solutions present initial singularities as found in the McVittie metric.

description: Identifying individuals with a higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 outcomes will inform targeted or more intensive clinical monitoring and management. To date, there is mixed evidence regarding the impact of pre-existing autoimmune disease (AID) diagnosis and/or immunosuppressant (IS) exposure on developing severe COVID-19 outcomes.A retrospective cohort of adults diagnosed with COVID-19 was created in the National COVID Cohort Collaborative enclave. Two outcomes, life-threatening disease, and hospitalization were evaluated by using logistic regression models with and without adjustment for demographics and comorbidities.Of the 2,453,799 adults diagnosed with COVID-19, 191,520 (7.81%) had a pre-existing AID diagnosis and 278,095 (11.33%) had a pre-existing IS exposure. Logistic regression models adjusted for demographics and comorbidities demonstrated that individuals with a pre-existing AID (OR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.09 - 1.17; P< 0.001), IS (OR= 1.27, 95% CI 1.24 - 1.30; P< 0.001), or both (OR = 1.35, 95% CI 1.29 - 1.40; P< 0.001) were more likely to have a life-threatening COVID-19 disease. These results were consistent when evaluating hospitalization. A sensitivity analysis evaluating specific IS revealed that TNF inhibitors were protective against life-threatening disease (OR = 0.80, 95% CI 0.66- 0.96; P=0.017) and hospitalization (OR = 0.80, 95% CI 0.73 - 0.89; P< 0.001).Patients with pre-existing AID, exposure to IS, or both are more likely to have a life-threatening disease or hospitalization. These patients may thus require tailored monitoring and preventative measures to minimize negative consequences of COVID-19.

description: The multi-sector SUSY breaking predicts pseudo-goldstino which can couple to the visible sector more strongly than the ordinary gavitino and thus induce the decays of the lightest neutralino and chargino (collectively called electroweakinos) inside the detector. In this note we study the electroweakino pair productions via vector boson fusion (VBF) processes followed by decays to pseudo-goldstino at the LHC. Our Monte Carlo simulations show that at the 14 TeV LHC with 3000 fb^{-1} luminosity the dominant production channel pp->chargino+neutralino+2 jets can have a statistical significance above 2-sigma while other production channels are not accessible.

description: Films of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 are grown by molecular beam epitaxy with in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction. The films are shown to be high-quality by X-ray reflectivity and diffraction and atomic-force microscopy. Quantum interference control of photocurrents is observed by excitation with harmonically related pulses and detected by terahertz radiation. The injection current obeys the expected excitation irradiance dependence, showing linear dependence on the fundamental pulse irradiance and square-root irradiance dependence of the frequency-doubled optical pulses. The injection current also follows a sinusoidal relative-phase dependence between the two excitation pulses. These results confirm the third-order nonlinear optical origins of the coherently controlled injection current. Experiments are compared to a tight-binding band structure to illustrate the possible optical transitions that occur in creating the injection current.

description: We examine the impact of a non-minimal coupling of the inflaton to the Ricci scalar, $\frac12 ξRϕ^2$, on the inflationary predictions. Such a non-minimal coupling is expected to be present in the inflaton Lagrangian on fairly general grounds. As a case study, we focus on the simplest inflationary model governed by the potential $V\propto ϕ^2$, using the latest combined 2015 analysis of Planck and BICEP2/Keck Array. We find that the presence of a coupling $ξ$ is favoured at a significance of $99\%$ CL, assuming that nature has chosen the potential $V\propto ϕ^2$ to generate the primordial perturbations and a number of e-foldings $N=60$. Within the context of the same scenario, we find that the value of $ξ$ is different from zero at the $2σ$ level. When considering the cross-correlation polarization spectra from BICEP2/Keck Array and Planck, a value of $r=0.038_{-0.030}^{+0.039}$ is predicted in this particular non-minimally coupled scenario. Future cosmological observations may therefore test these values of $r$ and verify or falsify the non-minimally coupled model explored here.

description: Background Malnutrition imposes enormous costs resulting from lost investments in human capital and increased healthcare expenditures. There is a dearth of research focusing on the prediction of women's body mass index (BMI) and malnutrition outcomes (underweight, overweight, and obesity) in developing countries. This paper attempts to fill out this knowledge gap by predicting the BMI and the risks of malnutrition outcomes for Bangladeshi women of childbearing age from their economic, health, and demographic features. Methods Data from the 2017-18 Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey and a series of supervised machine learning (SML) techniques are used. Additionally, this study circumvents the imbalanced distribution problem in obesity classification by utilizing an oversampling approach. Results Study findings demonstrate that the support vector machine and k-nearest neighbor are the two best-performing methods in BMI prediction based on the coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE). The combined predictor algorithms consistently yield top specificity, Cohen's kappa, F1-score, and AUC in classifying the malnutrition status, and their performance is robust to alternative standards. The feature importance ranking based on several nonparametric and combined predictors indicates that socioeconomic status, women's age, and breastfeeding status are the most important features in predicting women's nutritional outcomes. Furthermore, the conditional inference trees corroborate that those three features, along with the partner's educational attainment and employment status, significantly predict malnutrition risks. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that predicts BMI and one of the pioneer studies to classify all three malnutrition outcomes for women of childbearing age in Bangladesh, let alone in any lower-middle income country, using SML techniques. Moreover, in the context of Bangladesh, this paper is the first to identify and rank features that are critical in predicting nutritional outcomes using several feature selection algorithms. The estimators from this study predict the outcomes of interest most accurately and efficiently compared to other existing studies in the relevant literature. Therefore, study findings can aid policymakers in designing policy and programmatic approaches to address the double burden of malnutrition among Bangladeshi women, thereby reducing the country's economic burden.
Coupling the non-gravitational forces and Modified Newton Dynamics for cometary orbits

description: In recent work (Milgrom 2009, Blanchet & Novak 2011), the authors showed that MOdified Newton Dynamics (MOND) have a non-negligible secular perturbation effect on planets with large semi-major axes (gaseous planets) in the Solar System. Some comets also have a very eccentric orbit with a large semi-major axis (Halley family comets) going far away from the Sun (more than 15 AU) in a low acceleration regime where they would be subject to MOND perturbation. They also approach the Sun very closely (less than 3 AU) and are affected by the sublimation of ices from their nucleus, triggering so-called non-gravitational forces. The main goal of this paper is to investigate the effect of MOND perturbation on three comets with various orbital elements (2P/Encke, 1P/Halley and 153P/Ikeya-Zhang) and then compare it to the non-gravitational perturbations. It is motivated by the fact that when fitting an outgassing model for a comet, we have to take into account all of the small perturbing effects to avoid absorbing these effects into the non-gravitational parameters. Otherwise, we could derive a completely wrong estimation of the outgassing. For this work, we use six different forms of MOND functions and compute the secular variations of the orbital elements due to MOND and non-gravitational perturbations. We show that, for comets with large semi-major axis, the MONDian effects are not negligible compared to the non-gravitational perturbations.

description: Objectives:Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many pregnant patients experienced barriers in accessing opioid use disorder (OUD) medication. This project surveyed buprenorphine treatment clinics to determine how many accepted pregnant women before and then during the pandemic. Of those clinics accepting pregnant patients during the pandemic, respondents were asked what services were provided and what forms of payment they accepted.Methods:Between July and September 2020, phone contact was made with every sixth unduplicated clinic in North Carolina listed in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration treatment locator (N = 490 clinics). The response rate was 53%.Results:Of the 128 clinics responding, 62 clinics (48%) failed to treat pregnant patients both before and during the pandemic, whereas 66 clinics (52%) accepted pregnant patients before the COVID-19 pandemic, with only 44 (66%) of these clinics accepting pregnant patients during the pandemic. Thus, 33% fewer clinics accepted pregnant women for OUD treatment. Of these 44 clinics, 52% provided same-day intake, 45% prescribed naltrexone, and 57% offered detoxification with opioid agonists. Self-pay (95%), private insurance (77%), and Medicaid (55%) were accepted as payment. Clinics commonly reported providing individual counseling (86%). No clinics provided childcare or transportation.Conclusions:Almost half of the buprenorphine clinics in North Carolina turned away pregnant patients before the pandemic. During the pandemic, only 34% accepted pregnant patients, with 33% clinics that had provided medication treatment before the pandemic declining to treat pregnant patients for OUD. Thus, it is critical that policymakers ensure OUD treatment clinics accept pregnant patients.

description: We study solutions of the one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation to better understand dynamical instabilities occurring in flowing atomic condensates. Whereas transonic stationary flows can be fully described in simple terms, time-dependent flows exhibit a wide variety of behaviors. When the sound speed is crossed once, we observe that flows analogous to black holes obey something similar to the so-called no hair theorem since their late time profile is stationary and uniquely fixed by parameters entering the Hamiltonian and conserved quantities. For flows analogous to white holes, at late time one finds a macroscopic undulation in the supersonic side which has either a fixed amplitude, or a widely varying one signaling a quasi periodic emission of solitons on the subsonic side. When considering flows which cross the sound speed twice, we observe various scenarios which can be understood from the above behaviors, and from the hierarchy of the growth rates of the dynamical instabilities characterizing such flows.

description: In 2001, the primary and secondary syphilis incidence rate in rural Columbus County, North Carolina was the highest in the nation. To understand the development of syphilis outbreaks in rural areas, we developed and used the Bayesian Maximum Entropy Graphical User Interface (BMEGUI) to map syphilis incidence rates from 1999–2004 in seven adjacent counties in North Carolina. Using BMEGUI, incidence rate maps were constructed for two aggregation scales (ZIP code and census tract) with two approaches (Poisson and simple kriging). The BME maps revealed the outbreak was initially localized in Robeson County and possibly connected to more urban endemic cases in adjacent Cumberland County. The outbreak spread to rural Columbus County in a leapfrog pattern with the subsequent development of a visible low incidence spatial corridor linking Roberson County with the rural areas of Columbus County. Though the data are from the early 2000s, they remain pertinent, as the combination of spatial data with the extensive sexual network analyses, particularly in rural areas gives thorough insights which have not been replicated in the past two decades. These observations support an important role for the connection of micropolitan areas with neighboring rural areas in the spread of syphilis. Public health interventions focusing on urban and micropolitan areas may effectively limit syphilis indirectly in nearby rural areas.

Prospective, longitudinal study to isolate the impacts of marijuana use on neurocognitive functioning in adolescents
Creators: name: Fishbein, Diana
name: Ren, Wen
Publisher: name: Frontiers Media
Year: 2023

description: Introduction Policies to legalize possession and use of marijuana have been increasingly supported across the United States. Although there are restrictions on use in minors, many substance abuse scientists anticipate that these policy changes may alter use patterns among adolescents due to its wider availability and a softening of beliefs about its potentially harmful consequences. Despite the possibility that these policies may increase the prevalence of use among adolescents, the effects of marijuana on neurodevelopment remain unclear, clouding arguments in favor of or opposition to these policies. Methods The present prospective, longitudinal study was designed to isolate the neurodevelopmental consequences of marijuana use from its precursors during adolescence—a period of heightened vulnerability for both substance use and disrupted development due to environmental insults. Early adolescents who were substance-naïve at baseline (N = 529, aged 10–12) were recruited and tracked into adolescence when a subgroup initiated marijuana use during one of three subsequent waves of data collection, approximately 18 months apart. Results Results suggest that marijuana use may be specifically related to a decline in verbal learning ability in the short term and in emotion recognition, attention, and inhibition in the longer-term. Discussion These preliminary findings suggest that marijuana use has potential to adversely impact vulnerable neurodevelopmental processes during adolescence. Intensive additional investigation is recommended given that state-level policies regulating marijuana use and possession are rapidly shifting in the absence of good scientific information.

description: Abstract

This paper presents an integrated framework for advancing cancer treatment through the Cancer Annihilation Book (CAB) and the Aurora Mercurial Halo (AMH), highlighting how personalized cellular therapies, early detection methods, and AI-driven healthcare systems can revolutionize global healthcare access. The Mother Cell Theory forms the foundation of CAB, combining CAR-T cell therapy and stem cell technology to create a comprehensive approach to targeting and destroying cancer. Alongside these developments, the Four Fusion Test (FFT)—a non-invasive cancer detection tool—has undergone rigorous peer review, validating its effectiveness in early cancer detection. The paper also explores how AMH, an AI-based platform, facilitates real-time, culturally sensitive healthcare delivery globally. Together, these innovations are set to transform cancer treatment and global healthcare access.

description: This support paper seeks to analyze the potential of a new media arts practice in relationship to Second to Fourth Wave feminism discourse. Based on the works produced during my MFA studies at Emily Carr University, I investigate how a humanized representation of feminine subjectivity in media arts can operate a mind shift in the audience. I intend my work to participate in the neutralization of the internalized objectification of women’s bodies, providing a counterfoil to the images of the beauty myth at the benefit of a broader and more inclusive mode of femininity. Drawing from feminist photography, video and performance art from the 1970’s to present day, I explore how abjection, repetition, and autoethnography in media art act as key strategies in my research. Just as my artworks, this support paper is both a manifesto and a love letter; a protest and a celebration. // Ce document de soutien vise à analyser le potentiel d’une pratique artistique médiatique dans le cadre de la Seconde à la Quatrième Vague de féminisme. Se basant sur les œuvres produites durant mes études de MFA à Emily Carr University, je questionne comment une représentation humanisée de la subjectivité féminine dans les arts médiatiques peut exercer un changement de mentalité chez l’audience. Mes œuvres ont pour but de participer dans la neutralisation de l’objectification internalisée des corps féminins, offrant un contrepoids aux images du mythe de beauté au profit d’un mode de fémininité plus large et plus inclusif. Citant la photographie, l’art vidéo et la performance féministe des années 1970 à aujourd’hui, j’explore comment l’abjection, la répétition et l’auto-ethnographie dans les arts médiatiques agissent comme stratégies clés dans ma recherche. Tout comme mes œuvres, ce document de soutient est à la fois un manifeste et une lettre d’amour; une protestation et une célébration.

description: Background and Aims Healthcare provider counseling surrounding COVID‐19 vaccine in pregnancy and lactation is essential to vaccination uptake in this population; however, provider knowledge and confidence are not well characterized. We aimed to assess knowledge and confidence in COVID‐19 vaccine counseling among practitioners who provide care to pregnant persons and to describe factors associated with confidence in counseling. Methods A web‐based anonymous survey was distributed via email to a cross‐sectional convenience sample of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Primary Care, and Internal Medicine faculty at three hospitals in a single healthcare network in Massachusetts, United States. Individual demographics and institution‐specific variables were included in the survey along with questions assessing both attitudes toward COVID‐19 illness and confidence in counseling regarding the use of the vaccine in pregnancy. Results Almost all providers (151, 98.1%) reported that they received a COVID‐19 vaccine, and most (111, 72.1%) reported that they believe the benefits of the vaccine in pregnancy outweigh the risks. Forty‐one (26.6%) reported feeling very confident in counseling patients who primarily speak English about the evidence for messenger ribonucleic acid vaccination in pregnancy, and 36 (23%) reported feeling very confident in counseling patients who are not primarily English‐speaking. Forty‐three providers (28.1%) expressed strong confidence in their comfort talking to individuals with vaccine hesitancy based on historic and continued racism and systemic injustices. The sources that survey respondents most used to find information regarding COVID‐19 vaccination in pregnancy were the Centers for Disease Control (112, 74.2%), hospital‐specific resources (94, 62.3%), and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (82, 54.3%). Conclusion Ensuring that providers feel comfortable bridging the gap between their belief that the vaccine is beneficial for pregnant patients and their comfort with holding conversations with patients regarding vaccination is paramount to ensure equitable access to vaccines for pregnant patients.

Pseudomonas virulence factor controls expression of virulence genes in Pseudomonas entomophila

description: Quorum sensing is a communication strategy that bacteria use to collectively alter gene expression in response to cell density. Pathogens use quorum sensing systems to control activities vital to infection, such as the production of virulence factors and biofilm formation. The Pseudomonas virulence factor (pvf) gene cluster encodes a signaling system (Pvf) that is present in over 500 strains of proteobacteria, including strains that infect a variety of plant and human hosts. We have shown that Pvf regulates the production of secreted proteins and small molecules in the insect pathogen Pseudomonas entomophila L48. Here, we identified genes that are likely regulated by Pvf using the model strain P. entomophila L48 which does not contain other known quorum sensing systems. Pvf regulated genes were identified through comparing the transcriptomes of wildtype P. entomophila and a pvf deletion mutant (ΔpvfA-D). We found that deletion of pvfA-D affected the expression of approximately 300 genes involved in virulence, the type VI secretion system, siderophore transport, and branched chain amino acid biosynthesis. Additionally, we identified seven putative biosynthetic gene clusters with reduced expression in ΔpvfA-D. Our results indicate that Pvf controls multiple virulence mechanisms in P. entomophila L48. Characterizing genes regulated by Pvf will aid understanding of host-pathogen interactions and development of anti-virulence strategies against P. entomophila and other pvf-containing strains.
