description: Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is a widely used psychiatric treatment; however, it remains contentious. It is therefore important that people are provided with accurate and balanced information before consenting to ECT. The aim of this study was to audit and analyse the content and language of ECT information sheets used in local health districts (LHDs) across the state of New South Wales Australia. Descriptive content analysis and evaluative linguistic analysis were used to investigate the information sheets, with findings then considered from a mad studies perspective. Thirteen ECT information sheets were obtained and reviewed, with the audit finding they lacked accuracy and balance. Linguistic tools were used to exaggerate positive outcomes and minimise negative effects. Despite commonalities, the structure and content of the sheets varied considerably. Findings indicate a need for co-design and co-production approaches to developing ECT information sheets. This should occur in genuine partnership with lived experience representatives based on current evidence, using neutral language, and with attention to their intent as part of processes of informed consent and decision making.

description: Premature battery drain, swelling and fires/explosions in lithium-ion batteries have caused wide-scale customer concerns, product recalls, and huge financial losses in a wide range of products including smartphones, laptops, e-cigarettes, hoverboards, cars, and commercial aircraft. Most of these problems are caused by defects which are difficult to detect using conventional nondestructive electrical methods and disassembly-based destructive analysis. This paper develops an effective computed tomography (CT)-based nondestructive approach to assess battery quality and identify manufacturing-induced defects and structural deformations in batteries. Several unique case studies from commercial e-cigarette and smartphone applications are presented to show where CT analysis methods work.

Threatened Habitats & Tropical Important Plant Areas (TIPAs) of Guinea, West Africa
Publisher: name: Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew research repository
Year: 2019

description: Guinea has more than 250 documented unique and threatened plant species, more than is
known for any other country in West Africa. To protect them should be not only a national
priority but a global one.
Among these species – these natural resources – are the potential for new medicines,
materials, and foods that could improve the livelihoods of Guineans through research
and development.
However, time is running out. Already 35 of Guinea’s rarest plant species are possibly extinct,
and 25 of these species are, or were, globally unique to Guinea. These species have not been
found in more than 50 years, despite our surveys to seek them, and appear to have been
destroyed unknowingly as a result of human activities.
Guinea will continue to develop, with increased mining, improved agriculture, new roads,
new industry, larger towns and cities, and more infrastructure to support them. This future
development will impact on the natural environment.
In this book, we document Guinea’s most threatened habitats for plants, the 22 most
important areas for the conservation of these habitats, and the threatened plant species that
they contain. If the 22 Tropical Important Plant Areas (TIPAs) that are mapped in this book
can be protected, much of Guinea’s national patrimony in terms of wild plant resources will
be safeguarded. Altogether, these 22 areas occupy 8,702km², 3.5% of the surface area of
Guinea. Several of these areas are already protected, such as Nimba and Ziama. Others are
not protected, such as Kounounkan, which has more globally unique species than any other
location in Guinea, yet where forest destruction continues. The 22 TIPAs that are mapped in
this book include:
–– Over 60% of Guinea’s threatened plant species
–– Guinea’s most species-rich documented sites
–– Important indigenous socio-economic species
–– The highest quality areas of each of the nine threatened habitats.
We hope that this book, a joint product of Guinean and UK-based scientists, government
officials, and NGO staff, will result in increased protection and better management of Guinea’s
plant diversity.

description: This research isolated two new oleanane-type triterpene glycosides, named mocochinosides A (1) and B (2), together with ten known compounds as chikusetsusaponin IVa ethyl ester (3), momordin Ib (4), momordin IIb (5), momordin II (6), calenduloside G (7), calenduloside H (8), elatoside A (9), elatoside C (10), calendulaglycoside C 6'-O-7-butyl ester (11), and hederagenin 3-O-β-D-glucuronopyranoside (12) and characterized them from the vines of Momordica cochinchinensis. The new structures of both glycosides 1-2 were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis including 2 D NMR and MS, followed by an analysis of their anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities. Compounds 1, 4, and 11 showed moderate inhibitions for NO production on RAW264.7 macrophages induced by LPS at IC50 5.41 ∼ 11.28 μM. Compounds 3, 4, and 7 (IC50 8.42 ∼ 19.74 μM) exhibited potential anti-proliferative activities against both of WiDr and MCF-7 human tumor cell lines.

description: Data is compressed by reducing its redundancy, but this also makes the data less reliable, more prone to errors. In this paper a novel approach of image compression based on a new method that has been created for image compression which is called Five Modulus Method (FMM). The new method consists of converting each pixel value in an 8-by-8 block into a multiple of 5 for each of the R, G and B arrays. After that, the new values could be divided by 5 to get new values which are 6-bit length for each pixel and it is less in storage space than the original value which is 8-bits. Also, a new protocol for compression of the new values as a stream of bits has been presented that gives the opportunity to store and transfer the new compressed image easily.

description: We prove that even Coxeter groups, whose Coxeter diagrams contain no (4,4,2) triangles, are conjugacy separable. In particular, this applies to all right-angled Coxeter groups or word hyperbolic even Coxeter groups. For an arbitrary Coxeter group W, we also study the relationship between Coxeter generating sets that give rise to the same collection of parabolic subgroups. As an application we show that if an automorphism of W preserves the conjugacy class of every sufficiently short element then it is inner. We then derive consequences for the outer automorphism groups of Coxeter groups.

description: Electronic structure of newly synthesized single crystals of calcium iron arsenide doped with sodium with Tc ranging from 33 to 14 K has been determined by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The measured band dispersion is in general agreement with theoretical calculations, nonetheless implies absence of Fermi surface nesting at antiferromagnetic vector. A clearly developing below Tc strongly band-dependant superconducting gap has been revealed for samples with various doping levels. BCS ratio for optimal doping, $2Δ/k_{\rm B}T_{\rm c}=5.5$, is substantially smaller than the numbers reported for related compounds, implying a non-trivial relation between electronic dispersion and superconducting gap in iron arsenides.

description: Die vorliegende Studie versucht die Effekte einer Studie von Büttner & Dlugosch zum Stresserleben bei Studierenden zu replizieren. Dabei wird eine positive Herangehensweise an Stresserleben gewählt, indem betrachtet wird, inwieweit Achtsamkeit und Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung mit geringerem Stresserleben einhergehen. Zur Messung des Stresserlebens wird der „Perceived Stress Ques- tionnaire“ (mit den vier Dimensionen Sorgen, Anspannung, Anforderungen, Freude)eingesetzt.Die Skala zur Erfassung der Allgemeinen Selbstwirksamkeit- serwartung und der Freiburger Fragebogen zur Achtsamkeit erfassen respektive Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung und Achtsamkeit. Die vorliegende Studie möchte herausfinden, ob ein höheres Maß an Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung und Acht- samkeit mit niedrigeren Werten im Stresserleben einhergehen. Zusätzlich soll der Zusammenhang zwischen Achtsamkeit und Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung unter- sucht werden. Büttner & Dlugosch fanden, dass Studierende mit einer höheren Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung weniger Sorgen und mehr Freude berichten und Studierende mit einer erhöhten Achtsamkeit weniger Anspannung und mehr Freude berichten. Zudem berichten sie eine positive Korrelation zwischen Achtsamkeit und Selbstwirksamkeit. Die geplante Replikationsstudie erwartet entsprechende Ergebnisse wiederholt zu beobachten. Zur Prüfung der ersten Hypothese wird eine Regressionsanalyse durchgeführt. Die zweite Hypothese wird mit einer Korrelation untersucht. Da das Ziel der Replikationsstudie die Überprüfung vorheriger Ergeb- nisse darstellt, ordnen wir die Replikation als erfolgreich ein, wenn die Effekte der vorliegenden Studie in den Konfidenzintervallen der ursprünglichen Studie liegen.

description: The utilization of universal frequency reuse in multi-beam satellite systems introduces a non-negligible level of co-channel interference (CCI), which in turn penalizes the quality of service experienced by users. Taking this as starting point, the paper focuses on resource management performed by the gateway (hub) on the return-link, with particular emphasis on a scheduling algorithm based on bipartite graph approach. The study gives important insights into the achievable per-user rate and the role played by the number of users and spot beams considered for scheduling. More interestingly, it is shown that a free-slot assignment strategy helps to exploit the available satellite resources, thus guaranteeing a max-min rate requirement to users. Remarks about the trade-off between efficiency-loss and performance increase are finally drawn at the end of the paper.

title: The Effect of Fatigue on the Motor Evoked Potential of the Infraspinatus
Creators: name: Cordell, Joseph Howard
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
Shoulder muscle dysfunction can lead to glenohumeral incongruity and can negatively affect glenohumeral joint stability. Fatigue of the infraspinatus could affect joint stability. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fatigue on the muscle activation of the infraspinatus, specifically, the motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude, peak-to-peak duration, and activation latency of the MEP. Eighteen healthy college age students (eleven males, seven females) participated in this study. Subjects were screened for history of head trauma, shoulder pain, shoulder surgery, any neuromuscular disorders and potential conditions that might place them at a higher risk for adverse effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Subjects were instrumented with two electrodes on the infraspinatus. Maximal voluntary contraction of humeral external rotation was recorded before and after fatigue. The subjects held their right arm parallel to the floor at 45° of scapular abduction to induce muscle activation of the infraspinatus during stimulation. Stimulations were given before and after fatigue over the motor cortex directly involved with the infraspinatus. The fatigue protocol consisted of the subject holding onto a TheraBand and performing external rotations until fatigued.

Paired t-tests were used to compare MEP amplitude, peak-to-peak duration, and activation latency before and after fatigue. Following fatigue, there was a significant effect on peak-to-peak duration (p = 0.0005; r = -.50). No significance was found in MEP amplitude and muscle activation latency. In conclusion, peak-to-peak duration increased but it is unknown how this might change muscular activation in a fatigued state.

description: Dengue virus (DENV) is the most prevalent mosquito-borne viral pathogen and made the disease a major health concern worldwide. However, specific antiviral drugs against this arbovirose or vaccines are not yet available for treatment or prevention. Thus, here we aimed to study the antiviral activity of hydroethanolic extract, fraction ethyl acetate and subfractions of the leaves of Bauhinia holophylla (Fabaceae:Cercideae), a native plant of the Brazilian Cerrado, against DENV-2 by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method in mammalian cells culture. As results, the hydroethanolic extract showed the most potent effect, with an inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 3.2 μg mL−1 and selectivity index (SI) of 27.6, approximately 16-times higher anti-DENV-2 activity than of the ribavirin (IC50 52.8 μg mL−1). Our results showed in this study appointed that B. holophylla has a promising anti-dengue activity, which was associated mainly with the presence of flavonoids.

description: Recent studies have shown the unique value of satellite-observed land surface thermal infrared (TIR) information (e.g., skin temperature) and the feasibility of assimilating land surface temperature (LST) into land surface models (LSMs) to improve the simulation of land-atmosphere water and energy exchanges. In this study, two different types of LST assimilation techniques are implemented and the benefits from the techniques are compared. One of the techniques is to directly assimilate LST using ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) data assimilation (DA) utilities. The other is to use the Atmosphere-Land Exchange Inversion model (ALEXI) as an “observation operator” that converts LST retrievals into the soil moisture (SM) proxy based on the ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration (fPET), which is then assimilated into an LSM. While most current studies have shown some success in both directly the assimilating LST and assimilating ALEXI SM proxy into offline LSMs, the potential impact of the assimilation of TIR information through coupled numerical weather prediction (NWP) models is unclear. In this study, a semi-coupled Land Information System (LIS) and Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) system is employed to assess the impact of the two different techniques for assimilating the TIR observations from NOAA GOES satellites on WRF model forecasts. The NASA LIS, equipped with a variety of LSMs and advanced data assimilation tools (e.g., the ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF)), takes atmospheric forcing data from the WRF model run, generates updated initial land surface conditions with the assimilation of either LST- or TIR-based SM and returns them to WRF for initializing the forecasts. The WRF forecasts using the daily updated initializations with the TIR data assimilation are evaluated against ground weather observations and re-analysis products. It is found that WRF forecasts with the LST-based SM assimilation have better agreement with the ground weather observations than those with the direct LST assimilation or without the land TIR data assimilation.
Topological insulator Bi2Se3 thin films as an alternative channel material in MOSFETs

description: Three-dimensional (3-D) topological insulators (TI) are characterized by the presence of metallic surface states and a bulk band gap. Recently theoretical and experimental studies have shown an induced gap in the surface state bands of TI thin films. The gap results from interaction of conduction band (CB) and valence band (VB) surface states from the opposite surfaces of a thin film, and its size is determined by the film thickness. This gap formation could open the possibility of thin-film TI-based metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). Here we explore the performance of MOSFETs based on TI thin films, specifically Bi2Se3, using quantum ballistic transport simulations with the tight-binding Hamiltonian in the atomic orbital basis. Our simulations indicate that Bi2Se3 MOSFET will be vulnerable to short-channel effects due to the high relative dielectric constant of Bi2Se3(~100)despite its expected excellent electrostatic integrity inherent in a two-dimensional system, and will have other limitations as compared to silicon-based MOSFETs. However, Bi2Se3 MOSFETs, and presumably other TI-based MOSFETs, appear to provide reasonable performance that perhaps could provide novel device opportunities when combined with novel TI properties such as spin-polarized surface states.

description: We present an analysis of two experimental approaches to controlling the directionality of molecular rotation with ultrashort laser pulses. The two methods are based on the molecular interaction with either a pair of pulses (a "double kick" scheme) or a longer pulse sequence (a "chiral pulse train" scheme). In both cases, rotational control is achieved by varying the polarization of and the time delay between the consecutive laser pulses. Using the technique of polarization sensitive resonance-enhanced multi-photon ionization, we show that both methods produce significant rotational directionality. We demonstrate that increasing the number of excitation pulses supplements the ability to control the sense of molecular rotation with quantum state selectivity, i.e. predominant excitation of a single rotational state. We also demonstrate the ability of both techniques to generate counter-rotation of molecular nuclear spin isomers (here, ortho- and para-nitrogen) and molecular isotopologues (here, 14N_2 and 15N_2).

description: We investigate the competing Fermi surface instabilities in the Kagome tight-binding model. Specifically, we consider onsite and short-range Hubbard interactions in the vicinity of van Hove filling of the dispersive Kagome bands where the Fermiology promotes the joint effect of enlarged density of states and nesting. The sublattice interference mechanism [Kiesel and Thomale, Phys. Rev. B Rapid Comm., in press.] allows us to explain the intricate interplay between ferromagnetic fluctuations and other ordering tendencies. On the basis of functional renormalization group used to obtain an adequate low-energy theory description, we discover finite angular momentum spin and charge density wave order, a two-fold degenerate d-wave Pomeranchuk instability, and f-wave superconductivity away from van Hove filling. Together, this makes the Kagome Hubbard model the prototypical scenario for several unconventional Fermi surface instabilities.

description: We designed the following study to build on our previous preregistered study (https://osf.io/kcaqh) wherein we showed humans display evidence of using a predecessor representation (PR) over a successor representation for planning in a diverging environment. Specifically, we found evidence that an agent uses PR for backward planning in a one-step planning problem. However, that study left open the question of whether the same behavior indicative of backward planning would be observed in a multi-step planning problem, where individuals must plan out multiple actions. In the present study we thus tackle whether humans show evidence of using a predecessor representation (PR) as opposed to a successor representation (SR) to plan in a two-step planning problem in a diverging environment.
Light echo of V838 Monocerotis: properties of the echoing medium

description: The light echo phenomenon that accompanied the 2002 eruption of V838 Mon allows one to study the properties of the diffuse dusty matter in the vicinity of the object. We are aiming at obtaining estimates of the optical thickness of the circumstellar matter in front of V838 Mon, as well as optical properties of dust grains in the echoing medium. In particular, we are interested in studying whether the echoing medium can be responsible for the observed faintness of the B-type companion of V838 Mon when compared to three B-type stars that are seen in the vicinty of V838 Mon and are believed to be at the same distance as V838 Mon. We used the V838 Mon light echo images obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in different filters and epochs. From the images we derived the total brightness of the echo and its surface brightness. The results of the measurements were compared to model light echoes. The present study allowed us to estimate the optical thickness of the matter in front of the object and the mean cosine value of the scattering angle of dust grains in three HST filters. The optical thickness of the echoing matter is not sufficient to explain the observed difference in brightness between the B-type companion of V838 Mon and the other three B-type stars observed in the vicinity of V838 Mon. Implications of this result are discussed. Our estimate of the mass of the diffuse matter seen in the light echo shows that the matter cannot have resulted form a past mass loss activity of V838 Mon. We probably observe remnants of an interstellar cloud from which V838 Mon and other members of the observed cluster were formed.

description: Accurately quantifying surface water extent in wetlands is critical to understanding their role in ecosystem processes. However, current regional- to global-scale surface water products lack the spatial or temporal resolution necessary to characterize heterogeneous or variable wetlands. Here, we proposed a fully automatic classification tree approach to classify surface water extent using Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and training datasets derived from prior class masks. Prior classes of water and non-water were generated from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) water body dataset (SWBD) or composited dynamic surface water extent (cDSWE) class probabilities. Classification maps of water and non-water were derived over two distinct wetlandscapes: the Delmarva Peninsula and the Prairie Pothole Region. Overall classification accuracy ranged from 79% to 93% when compared to high-resolution images in the Prairie Pothole Region site. Using cDSWE class probabilities reduced omission errors among water bodies by 10% and commission errors among non-water class by 4% when compared with results generated by using the SWBD water mask. These findings indicate that including prior water masks that reflect the dynamics in surface water extent (i.e., cDSWE) is important for the accurate mapping of water bodies using SAR data.

description: The discovery that a spin polarized current can exert a large torque on a ferromagnet through a transfusion of spin angular momentum, offers a new way to control a magnetization by simple current injection, without the help of an applied external field. Spin transfer can be used to induce magnetization reversals and oscillations, or to control the position of a magnetic domain wall. In this review, we focus on this last mechanism, which is today the subject of an extensive research, both because the microscopic details for its origin are still debated, but also because promising applications are at stake for non-volatile magnetic memories.

description: We present a general class of unbiased improved estimators for physical observables in lattice gauge theory computations which significantly reduces statistical errors at modest computational cost. The error reduction techniques, referred to as covariant approximation averaging, utilize approximations which are covariant under lattice symmetry transformations. We observed cost reductions from the new method compared to the traditional one, for fixed statistical error, of 16 times for the nucleon mass at $M_π\sim 330$ MeV (Domain-Wall quark) and 2.6-20 times for the hadronic vacuum polarization at $M_π\sim 480$ MeV (Asqtad quark). These cost reductions should improve with decreasing quark mass and increasing lattice sizes.

title: Probing the Secondary Coordination Sphere of Zn(II) and Fe(II) Pyridinediimine (PDI) Complexes
Creators: name: Delgado, Mayra
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
The transformation of many small, abundant molecules is necessary both in a biological setting and in the chemical industry. In Nature, the activation of small molecules is promoted by metalloenzymes. However, many of these chemical transformations are thermodynamically demanding and consist of multi-electron redox processes. Understanding the secondary coordination sphere has played an integral role in determining the catalytic activity and selectivity of such transformations and has led to the development of bioinspired catalysts in order to mimic the native active site of the metalloenzyme. Due to its extensive modularity, the utilization of the pyridinediimine (PDI) metal complexes was targeted in this work to study the secondary coordination sphere and its relationship to the reactivity at the metal active site. The redox-active PDI ligand scaffold containing a pendant base was used to synthesize a series of Fe(II) and Zn(II) complexes consisting of H-bond acceptors/donors in the secondary coordination sphere. The Zn(II) complexes are able to be protonated in the secondary coordination sphere, forming metal halogen hydrogen bonds (MHHBs). The use of these intramolecular H-bonds in the Zn complexes also serve to provide stabilization of the hydrosulfide (HS-) ligand, forming a six-coordinate Zn complex. The Fe(II) complexes were reduced under CO atmosphere, followed by protonation in the secondary coordination sphere. This resulted in stable, doubly reduced protonated species, capable of moving protons and electrons in and out of the system. The protonated Fe(II) complex was poised to deliver protons and electrons necessary to investigate nitrite (NO2-) reduction for the formation a dinitrosyl iron complex (DNIC). The reduction of nitrate (NO3-) for the synthesis of the DNIC was also explored and used to further investigate products of the reaction. Fe(II) PDI complexes with an incorporation of Lewis acids in the secondary coordination sphere were also synthesized and characterized in order to provide a better understanding of how redox inactive metals in the secondary coordination sphere of the PDI scaffold of alters the redox activity of the complex.
