description: Abstract The purpose of this study was to perform a microcomputed tomographic evaluation of the radioprotective effect of resveratrol on the volume of mandibular incisors of irradiated rats. A second aim was to make a quantitative assessment of the effect of x-ray exposure on these dental tissues. Twenty adult male rats were divided into four groups: control, irradiated control, resveratrol, and irradiated resveratrol. The resveratrol groups received 100 mg/kg of resveratrol, whereas the irradiated groups were exposed to 15 Gy of irradiation. The animals were sacrificed 30 days after the irradiation procedure, and their mandibles were removed and scanned in a microcomputed tomography unit. The images were loaded into Mimics software to allow segmentation of the mandibular incisor and assessment of its volume. The results were compared by One-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post hoc test, considering a 5% significance level. The irradiated groups showed significantly diminished volumes of the evaluated teeth, as compared with the control group (p < 0.05). The resveratrol group presented higher values than those of the irradiated groups, and volumes similar to those of the control group. High radiation doses significantly affected tooth formation, resulting in alterations in the dental structure, and thus lower volumes. Moreover, resveratrol showed no effective radioprotective impact on dental tissues. Future studies are needed to evaluate different concentrations of this substance, in an endeavor to verify its potential as a radioprotector for these dental tissues.

description: We provide a unified geometrical description for analyzing the stability of holonomic quantum gates in the presence of imprecise driving controls (parametric noise). We consider the situation in which these fluctuations do not affect the adiabatic evolution but can reduce the logical gate performance. Using the intrinsic geometric properties of the holonomic gates, we show under which conditions on noise's correlation time and strength, the fluctuations in the driving field cancel out. In this way, we provide theoretical support to previous numerical simulations. We also briefly comment on the error due to the mismatch between real and nominal time of the period of the driving fields and show that it can be reduced by suitably increasing the adiabatic time.

description: What was the last item you purchased? Did you ever think of how it arrived in the shop? Regardless of what you purchased, logistics and the management of supply chains is what got that item to the shop. Logistics and the management of supply chains is a very diverse sector. It is the invisible glue that keeps economies and society functioning and ensures that products get to where they need to be at the right time in the right condition and at the right price. We generally don't think about this invisible glue until there is a problem: remember the chaos caused by the snow in 2018?

Year: 2020

description: The Colorado River Basin currently faces unprecedented stresses. Persistent dry conditions since 2000, along with the increasing recognition that warming temperatures are impacting the hydrology of the basin, have led to great concerns about the long-term reliability of basin water supplies. With ever-higher stakes for water resource planning and decision making, an even greater emphasis is placed on the tools that support those activities, notably Reclamation’s operations and planning models and similar models used at other agencies. The usefulness of these system models depends on many types of datasets and forecasts that serve as inputs to them, as well as the research and scientific understanding underpinning this complex chain of data and models. The development and refinement of the different links of the chain necessarily involves researchers, forecasters, and water managers.

description: Blue colour-coated steel roofs (BCCSRs) offer a lightweight and economical option to concrete and other cladding in buildings, but they are also controversial for altering the surface energy budget and water cycle. Obtaining spatial information about BCCSRs is crucial for exploring the environmental impacts of man-made landscapes. However, existing methods are not always effective due to the variety of BCCSR types and background conditions. To overcome these limitations, we proposed a new index (called BCCSI) based on Sentinel-2 multispectral images to map the commonly used BCCSRs. Five typical study areas were chosen worldwide to develop and validate the BCCSI. Based on spectral analysis, we constructed the BCCSI using the blue, red, green, and shortwave infrared 2 (SWIR2) bands to highlight the BCCSR while suppressing the background condition. Compared with five existing indices, the BCCSI was effective in the visual evaluation, separability analysis and BCCSR mapping. Moreover, the BCCSI achieved similar accuracy to the supervised classifier while avoiding the time-consuming and laborious effort of sample collection. Furthermore, the BCCSI showed its applicability in medium-resolution satellite data, such as Landsat-8 imagery. Thus, the proposed BCCSI provides a viable scheme for global BCCSR mapping and analysis.

description: We present a new fast solver to calculate fixed-boundary plasma equilibria in toroidally axisymmetric geometries. By combining conformal mapping with Fourier and integral equation methods on the unit disk, we show that high-order accuracy can be achieved for the solution of the equilibrium equation and its first and second derivatives. Smooth arbitrary plasma cross-sections as well as arbitrary pressure and poloidal current profiles are used as initial data for the solver. Equilibria with large Shafranov shifts can be computed without difficulty. Spectral convergence is demonstrated by comparing the numerical solution with a known exact analytic solution. A fusion-relevant example of an equilibrium with a pressure pedestal is also presented.

description: The electronic structure of bulk fcc GaAs, fcc and tetragonal CrAs, and CrAs/GaAs supercells, computed within LMTO local spin-density functional theory, is used to extract the band alignment (band offset) for the [1,0,0] GaAs/CrAs interface in dependence of the spin orientation. With the lateral lattice constant fixed to the experimental bulk GaAs value, a local energy minimum is found for a tetragonal CrAs unit cell with a slightly ($\approx$ 2%) reduced longitudinal ([1,0,0]) lattice constant. Due to the identified spin-dependent band alignment, half-metallicity of CrAs no longer is a key requirement for spin-filtering. Encouraged by these findings, we study the spin-dependent tunneling current in [1,0,0] GaAs/CrAs/GaAs heterostructures within the non-equilibrium Green's function approach for an effective tight-binding Hamiltonian derived from the LMTO electronic structure. Results indicate that these heterostructures are probable candidates for efficient room-temperature all-semiconductor spin-filtering devices.

description: Compactified Yang-Mills theories with one universal extra dimension were found [arXiv:1008.4638] to exhibit two types of gauge invariances: the standard gauge transformations (SGTs) and the nonstandard gauge transformations (NSGTs). In the present work we show that these transformations are not exclusive to compactified scenarios. Introducing a notion of hidden symmetry, based on the fundamental concept of canonical transformation, we analyse three different gauge systems, each of which is mapped to a certain effective theory that is invariant under the so-called SGTs and NSGTs. The systems under discussion are: (i) four dimensional pure $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory, (ii) four dimensional $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills with spontaneous symmetry breaking, and (iii) pure Yang-Mills theory with one universal compact extra dimension. The canonical transformation, that induces the notion of hidden symmetry, maps objects with well defined transformation laws under a gauge group $G$ to well defined objects under a non-trivial subgroup $H \subset G$. In the case where spontaneous symmetry breaking is present, the set of SGTs corresponds to the group into which the original gauge group is broken into, whereas the NSGTs are associated to the broken generators and can be used to define the unitary gauge. For the system (iii), the SGTs coincide with the gauge group $ SU(N,\cal{M}^{4}) $, whereas the NSGTs do not form a group; in this system the 'fundamental' theory and the effective one are shown to be classically equivalent.

description: Efficient and continuous monitoring of surface water is essential for water resource management. Much effort has been devoted to the task of water mapping based on remote sensing images. However, few studies have fully considered the diverse spectral properties of water for the collection of reference samples in an automatic manner. Moreover, water area statistics are sensitive to the satellite image observation quality. This study aims to develop a fully automatic surface water mapping framework based on Google Earth Engine (GEE) with a supervised random forest classifier. A robust scheme was built to automatically construct training samples by merging the information from multi-source water occurrence products. The samples for permanent and seasonal water were mapped and collected separately, so that the supplement of seasonal samples can increase the spectral diversity of the sample space. To reduce the uncertainty of the derived water occurrences, temporal correction was applied to repair the classification maps with invalid observations. Extensive experiments showed that the proposed method can generate reliable samples and produce good-quality water mapping results. Comparative tests indicated that the proposed method produced water maps with a higher quality than the index-based detection methods, as well as the GSWD and GLAD datasets.
The Gulf of Mexico oil disaster: A case study on the projected economic impact on tourism among the Gulf States of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida
Creators: name: Robinson, Richard Andrew
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: This case study found that from May through July 2010 most reports from Gulf area hospitality providers noted a significant drop in tourism revenue due to the BP oil spill. During this period, anecdotal accounts from business owners in the area described a sales decrease of 50% or more in some tourist spots. A University of Southern Mississippi study found that for that state alone non-gaming hotels experienced a 50% drop in sales with a total factored direct/indirect shortfall of $119,400. A Moody's report, released in July, calculated the economic damage to tourism for that period to be $1.2 billion. Since the leak ended in mid-July, and not August as the report predicted, the actual prorated loss totals $900 million to the area tourism industry. The results of a Rasmussen Reports poll, released in July 2010, revealed that 66% of respondents stated that they would not change their future travel plans due to the spill. A follow-up study is required as at the time of writing a limited amount of economic impact data was available.

description: This paper, prepared for the Department of Public Administration, discusses policy in botanic gardens in regard to development and management of living collections and the potential implementation at the Las Vegas Springs Preserve. Review of the literature and study of policy from other institutions has resulted in recommendation of policy for the Preserve. Its basic contents describe the purpose and need for collections policy, examine the elements of collection policy, characterizes the types of living collections to be held at the Preserve, and outlines the objectives of these collections. This document raises issues associated with the management of living collections such as acquisition criteria, authority, accessioning and documentation, preservation and care, deaccessioning, inventory control, and ethics. While the aim is to recommend an approach for management of living collections at the Las Vegas Springs Preserve, it is expected that full development of the collections policy will be undertaken in full collaboration and consultation with the various stakeholders.

description: Using Langevin Dynamics simulations, we study a simple model of interacting-polymer under a periodic force. The force-extension curve strongly depends on the magnitude of the amplitude $(F)$ and the frequency ($ν$) of the applied force. In low frequency limit, the system retraces the thermodynamic path. At higher frequencies, response time is greater than the external time scale for change of force, which restrict the biomolecule to explore a smaller region of phase space that results in hysteresis of different shapes and sizes. We show the existence of dynamical transition, where area of hysteresis loop approaches to a large value from nearly zero area with decreasing frequency. The area of hysteresis loop is found to scale as $F^α ν^β$ for the fixed length. These exponents are found to be the same as of the mean field values for a time dependent hysteretic response to periodic force in case of the isotropic spin.

description: Electron-positron pair production in an arbitrary polarized ultrastrong laser field is investigated in the first order perturbation approximation in which the Volkov states are used for convenient calculation of scattering amplitude and cross section. It is found surprisingly that the optimal pair production depends strongly on the polarization. For some cases of field parameters, the optimal field is elliptically polarized or evenly circularly polarized one, rather than the usual linear polarization as indicated by previous works. Some insights into pair generation are given and some interesting unexpected features are also discussed briefly.

description: Social media support groups can provide accessibility to advice and emotional regarding medical topics, such as retinal detachment repair, but this is almost universally provided by laypersons. We sought to determine how topics related to retinal detachment repair are associated with various emotional responses and the spread of misinformation, as identified through an online social media support group. Retrospective observational study of the largest Facebook support group for retinal detachment from 03/19/2021 to 07/19/2021. Members of the support group that posted during the study period. Comments were coded by content (Pre-procedural, Peri-procedural Post procedural, Repeat procedures) and participant response (Emotional responses, Asking for medical advice, and Misinformation). Associations between content and responses were examined using Pearson’s chi-squared test, two-sample t-test, and linear regression. Posts that included written comments from the study period were analyzed. Negative emotional responses appeared in 30% of posts and positive emotional responses were in 16% of posts. Misinformation was more likely to appear in pre-procedure posts (5.3% versus 1.4%, p = .03). Negative emotional responses trended towards being more common in topics related to repeat procedures (40% vs 28%), although this did not reach statistical significance (p = .06). Surgeons should be aware that patients frequently express negative experiences on this forum, asked for medical advice, even in the post-operative period, and that these posts generated high engagement. Misinformation may be propagated in support groups, though less commonly with regard to post-procedural questions.

description: Sr2IrO4 is a magnetic insulator driven by spin-orbit interaction (SOI) whereas the isoelectronic and isostructural Sr2RhO4 is a paramagnetic metal. The contrasting ground states have been shown to result from the critical role of the strong SOI in the iridate. Our investigation of structural, transport, magnetic and thermal properties reveals that substituting 4d Rh4+ (4d5) ions for 5d Ir4+(5d5) ions in Sr2IrO4 directly reduces the SOI and rebalances the competing energies so profoundly that it generates a rich phase diagram for Sr2Ir1-xRhxO4 featuring two major effects: (1) Light Rh doping (0\leqx\leq0.16) prompts a simultaneous and precipitous drop in both the electrical resistivity and the magnetic ordering temperature TC, which is suppressed to zero at x = 0.16 from 240 K at x=0. (2) However, with heavier Rh doping (0.24< x<0.85 (\pm0.05)) disorder scattering leads to localized states and a return to an insulating state with spin frustration and exotic magnetic behavior that only disappears near x=1. The intricacy of Sr2Ir1-xRhxO4 is further highlighted by comparison with Sr2Ir1-xRuxO4 where Ru4+(4d4) drives a direct crossover from the insulating to metallic states.

description: To evaluate whether using prostaglandin analogues (PGAs) perioperatively is associated with an increased rate of the development of clinical or subclinical cystoid macular edema (CME) after uneventful cataract surgery. The PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect databases were searched to June 2022 for this systematic review and meta-analysis. Two authors independently screened search results. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to calculate the overall incidence rate and odds ratio (OR). Quality of studies was assessed using the modified Newcastle-Ottawa scale. The incidences of CME for continued vs discontinued use of PGAs perioperatively, continued use of PGAs, discontinued use of PGAs, and PGA users vs non-PGA antiglaucomatous users were main outcomes. Out of 544–articles, 9 studies that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. The continued use of PGAs was not associated with an increased risk of the development of subclinical macular edema compared with discontinued use (OR = 1.32 [95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 0.49–3.51], p = .582). The overall incidence of CME was 34% (95% CI = 0.17–0.52) for continued use of PGAs and 7% (95% CI = 0.02–0.13) for discontinued use of PGAs. Using PGAs did not increase the risk of CME’s development compared with non-PGA antiglaucomatous usage (OR = 2.29 [95% CI = 0.84–6.23], p = .103) Discontinuing treatment with PGAs during the perioperative period in eyes without any known risk factors for CME has no clinically significant effect on reducing the development of postoperative CME based on the existing studies. Further, well-designed randomized controlled trials need to be performed.

A Comparison of gambling motivation factors between Chinese and Western casino players
Creators: name: Ye, Lu
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2009

description: This paper explored literature on gambling motivation of Western and Chinese casino players to find out the similarities and differences of their motivation factors. Study found that they are motivated in similar ways by the desire to win, social and early memories. However, the Chinese gamblers exhibit severer cognitive errors, stronger risk-taking tendency and higher level of stress and depression, which explained the common findings of literature that Chinese have higher gambling and problem gambling rates than other ethnic groups. The findings would benefit casino operators in making marketing strategy at the Chinese players as well as problem gambling treatment organizations in implementing customized treatment programs.
