description: Background: Genes involved in Tourette syndrome (TS) remain largely unknown. We aimed to identify genetic factors contributing to TS in a French cohort of 120 individuals using a combination of hypothesis-driven and exome-sequencing approaches. Methods: We first sequenced exons of SLITRK1-6 and HDC in the TS cohort and subsequently sequenced the exome of 12 individuals harboring rare variants in these genes to find additional rare variants contributing to the disorder under the hypothesis of oligogenic inheritance. We further screened three candidate genes (OPRK1, PCDH10, and NTSR2) preferentially expressed in the basal ganglia, and three additional genes involved in neurotensin and opioid signaling (OPRM1, NTS, and NTSR1), and compared variant frequencies in TS patients and 788 matched control individuals. We also investigated the impact of altering the expression of Oprk1 in zebrafish. Results: Thirteen ultrarare missense variants of SLITRK1-6 and HDC were identified in 12 patients. Exome sequencing in these patients revealed rare possibly deleterious variants in 3,041 genes, 54 of which were preferentially expressed in the basal ganglia. Comparison of variant frequencies altering selected candidate genes in TS and control individuals revealed an excess of potentially disrupting variants in OPRK1, encoding the opioid kappa receptor, in TS patients. Accordingly, we show that downregulation of the Oprk1 orthologue in zebrafish induces a hyperkinetic phenotype in early development. Discussion: These results support a heterogeneous and complex genetic etiology of TS, possibly involving rare variants altering the opioid pathway in some individuals, which could represent a novel therapeutic target in this disorder.

description: Twilight studies have proved to be important tools to analyze the atmospheric structure with interesting consequences on the characterization of astronomical sites. Active discussions on this topic have been recently restarted in connection with the evaluation of Dome C, Antarctica as a potential astronomical site and several site-testing experiments, including twilight brightness measurements, are being prepared. The present work provides for the first time absolute photometric measurements of twilight sky brightness for ESO-Paranal (Chile), which are meant both as a contribution to the site monitoring and as reference values in the analysis of other sites, including Dome C. The UBVRI twilight sky brightness was estimated on more than 2000 FORS1 archival images, which include both flats and standard stars observations taken in twilight, covering a Sun zenith distance range 94-112 deg. The comparison with a low altitude site shows that Paranal V twilight sky brightness is about 30% lower, implying that some fraction of multiple scattering has to take place at an altitude of a few km above the sea level.

Substrate utilization and ammonia secretion in the locust ileum
Creators: name: Peach, Jacqueline Lenore
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Increases in chloride-dependent short-circuit current (ΔIsc; an indicator of the major energy-requiring membrane transport process) were used to determine which external substrates support aerobic respiration in locust ileum stimulated by cAMP and theophylline in vitro. At high bilateral concentrations, only glucose and 5 amino acids (alanine, asparagine, glutamine, proline and serine) sustained ileal ΔIsc, while trehalose, lipid (diolein) and all other amino acids normally found in locust haemolymph were not utilized. When individual substrates were provided unilaterally at physiological concentrations, the predominant source of substrates supporting ileal Isc was the luminal fluid, which is mostly derived in situ from Malpighian tubule secretion. Only proline was used almost equally well from both the lumen or haemolymph sides. This situation contrasts with locust rectum where luminal proline is by far the predominant source of respiratory substrate. An inhibitor of amino transferases, amino-oxyacetate, largely abolished ileal ΔIsc sustained by alanine, but not that sustained by either proline or glutamine. The 5 amino acids that caused an increase in chloride-dependent Isc were assayed for their effect on luminal secretion of ammonia (Jamm), with and without cAMP. A saline with alanine, asparagine, glutamine, proline and serine supported ileal Jamm not significantly different from with Jamm complete saline. Each of these 5 amino acids, when applied individually, resulted in a Jamm significantly above a substrate-free control. The remaining amino acids found in a complete physiological saline (arginine, glycine, histidine, lysine, and valine) that do not stimulate ileal Isc were combined in one saline and gave a Jamm value insignificant from the substrate-free control. Asparagine and glutamine have the greatest effect on Jamm with both bilateral and luminal presentation. The addition of cAMP caused an increase in Jamm when either the complete saline or the 5 amino acid saline were present bilaterally, but no significant effect on Jamm caused by a luminal addition of individual amino acids. Jamm was unaffected by changes in luminal pH from 4.5 to 7.5, Na⁺ substitution and amiloride addition, indicating that luminal Jamm is primarily occurring by NH₄⁺ transport and not by diffusion trapping (NH₃).

description: We propose and analyze a setup to tailor the wave functions of the quantum states. Our setup is based on the quantum teleportation circuit, but instead of the usual two-mode squeezed state, two-mode non-Gaussian entangled state is used. Using this setup, we can generate various classes of quantum states such as Schrödinger cat states, four-component cat states, superpositions of Fock states, and cubic phase states. These results demonstrate the versatility of our system as a state generator and suggest that conditioning using homodyne measurements is an important tool in the generations of the non-Gaussian states in complementary to the photon number detection.

description: Staying in Hollywood and the Big Apple: The Effectiveness and Design of Film Production Tax Credits in New York and California, 2016 Colum. Bus. L. Rev. 426 (2016). Film production tax credits have become an increasingly common feature of the state tax system. These tax credit programs were originally a response to worries about “runaway production” of films to foreign jurisdictions offering similar incentives. Now, even states with a historical comparative advantage in film production and strong in-state talent and expertise offer sizeable tax credits. This Note will focus on the film production tax credits offered in states with a historical comparative advantage in filming, specifically New York and California. The Note begins by examining the evolution and expansion of the Empire State Film Production Credit and the California Film and Television Production Credit. Then, it compares the current design of these two tax credit programs, and discusses and critiques economic impact analyses used to evaluate these programs. The Note concludes by addressing whether it is advisable for a state with a historically strong film industry to offer a film tax credit, and which tax design features are appropriate for such a state, paying special attention to how a program determines eligibility for the tax credit, whether the credit can be refunded or transferred, and the credit’s allocation mechanism.

description: We consider the possibility of constraining the lifetime of radiatively decaying dark matter particles in clusters of galaxies inspired from generic axions of the Kaluza-Klein type. Such axions have been invoked as a possible explanation for the coronal X-ray emission from the Sun. These axions, or similar particles, can be produced inside stars and some of them remain confined by the deep gravitational potential of clusters of galaxies. Specifically, we consider regions within merging galaxy clusters (Abell 520 and the "Bullet Cluster"), where gravitational lensing observations have identified massive, but baryon poor, structures. From an analysis of X-ray observations of these mass concentrations, and the expected photon spectrum of decaying solar KK-axions, we derive lower limits to the lifetime of such axions of tau approx. 10^23 sec. However, if KK-axions constitute less than a few percent of the dark matter mass, this lifetime constraint is similar to that derived from solar KK-axions.

description: Background: Hyperglycemic-hemichorea is a well-established clinical entity which leads to signal changes on brain MRI. We are reporting a case of hyperglycemic-hemichorea where the DaT scan showed reduced uptake bilaterally. Case Report: A 57-year-old female was seen in the clinic for hemichorea due to hyperglycemia. Her brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed increased T1 signal intensity in bilateral lenticular nuclei and the DaT scan showed reduced uptake on both sides. Discussion: This case highlights the importance of performing a DaT scan in the correct clinical context, as an abnormality on brain MRI can lead to false-positive DaT scan results.

description: We investigate the quantum Jaynes-Cummings model - a particular case of the Gaudin model with one of the spins being infinite. Starting from the Bethe equations we derive Baxter's equation and from it a closed set of equations for the eigenvalues of the commuting Hamiltonians. A scalar product in the separated variables representation is found for which the commuting Hamiltonians are Hermitian. In the semi classical limit the Bethe roots accumulate on very specific curves in the complex plane. We give the equation of these curves. They build up a system of cuts modeling the spectral curve as a two sheeted cover of the complex plane. Finally, we extend some of these results to the XXX Heisenberg spin chain.

Examination of cardiovascular function in conscious hypertensive diabetic rats
Creators: name: Schenk, Johannes
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This investigation was concerned with measuring aspects of cardiac function in conscious control, diabetic, hypertensive control, and hypertensive diabetic rats. Preliminary studies were conducted to determine catheter suitability and acute responses to atropine and angiotensin II in conscious animals. The catheter-manometer was tested using a square wave impact and was shown to accurately reproduce a left ventricular pressure pulse. Intravenous atropine caused both heart rate and left ventricular +dP/dt to rise. Intravenously administered angiotensin II caused systolic blood pressure to increase dramatically. In this case heart rate fell and +dP/dt was elevated. Hypertension was induced with deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) and saline drinking water. Rats were first made diabetic with streptozotocin (60 mg/kg; i.v.). One week following this, subcutaneous DOCA (25 mg/kg) was administered twice weekly and all animals received saline drinking water. Following 2 and 5 weeks of DOCA treatment rats were catheterized and resting cardiovascular function was measured. DOCA treatment caused increased systolic and diastolic blood pressures to occur in control and diabetic rats at 2 and 5 weeks. Bradycardia was also observed in DOCA-diabetic and DOCA-control rats at 2 and 5 weeks of treatment. Two and 5 week hypertensive diabetic and control rats exhibited elevated -dP/dt and +dP/dt. The rate of contraction was shown to be proportional to the magnitude of systolic blood pressure in all treatment groups. It is concluded that diabetic rats and control rats did not differ in their response to hypertension after 5 weeks of DOCA treatment.

description: Case-based learning is a powerful pedagogical method of creating dialogue between theory and practice. CBL is particularly suited to executive learning as it instigates critical discussion and draws out relevant experiences. In this paper we used a real-world case to teach Information Security Management to students in Management Information Systems. The real-world case is described in a legal indictment, T-mobile USA Inc v Huawei Device USA Inc. and Huawei Technologies Co. LTD, alleging theft of intellectual property and breaches of contract concerning confidentiality and disclosure of sensitive information. The incident scenario is interesting as it relates to a business asset that has both digital and physical components that has been compromised through an unconventional cyber-physical attack facilitated by insiders. The scenario sparked an interesting debate among students about the scope and definition of security incidents, the role and structure of the security unit, the utility of compliance-based approaches to security, and the inadequate use of threat intelligence in modern security strategies.

description: Background: Detection of defective deep brain stimulation (DBS) contacts/electrodes is sometimes challenging. Case Report: We report a patient with Tourette syndrome (TS), who presented with abrupt tic increase and mild generalized headache 9 years after DBS implantation. On the suspicion of a hardware defect, a fracture of the DBS electrode and extension lead was ruled out by radiography and standard implantable pulse generator readouts. Further investigation revealed position-dependent modifiable therapeutic impedances, suggesting an impaired contact of the extension lead/adaptor. After replacement normal impedances were recorded, and the patient fully recovered. Discussion: In DBS dysfunction with inconspicuous hardware check, position-dependent defects might be suspected.

description: Background: Individuals with essential tremor (ET), a common movement disorder, experience functional impairment, which contributes to burden experienced by their loved ones and caregivers. Some burdened caregivers report their loved ones as seeming debilitated or prematurely old, a concept that we have called enfeeblement. Using the Essential Tremor Enfeeblement Survey (ETES), we seek to characterize enfeeblement in elders with ET and assess its contribution to caregiver burden. Methods: We administered the ETES (range = 8–40, higher scores indicating more enfeeblement) and other scales to 98 caregivers of individuals with ET. Individuals with ET were also queried regarding tremors, cognitive abilities, and overall health. We then identified demographic and clinical correlates of ETES and modeled the contribution of ETES to caregiver burden (assessed using the Zarit 12-item Burden Interview [ZBI-12]). Results: Mean ETES score was 14.2 ± 6.2 (median = 12.0, range = 8.0–32.0); 26.5% of respondents endorsed at least one of the eight ETES items. Older age, greater tremor severity and disability, more functional and gait disability, more cognitive difficulty, and more depressive symptoms were associated with higher ETES scores. ETES was the strongest contributor to caregiver burden (ZBI-12) and substantially increased the variance explained in models of caregiver burden. Discussion: Enfeeblement seems to describe a previously unexplained component of caregiver burden in elders with ET. The presence of enfeeblement may contribute to greater burden and should be factored into assessments of patient and caregiver needs.

description: For matrix $A$, vector $\boldsymbol{b}$ and function $f$, the computation of vector $f(A)\boldsymbol{b}$ arises in many scientific computing applications. We consider the problem of obtaining quantum state $\lvert f \rangle$ corresponding to vector $f(A)\boldsymbol{b}$. There is a quantum algorithm to compute state $\lvert f \rangle$ using eigenvalue estimation that uses phase estimation and Hamiltonian simulation $\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{\bf i} A t}$. However, the algorithm based on eigenvalue estimation needs $\textrm{poly}(1/ε)$ runtime, where $ε$ is the desired accuracy of the output state. Moreover, if matrix $A$ is not Hermitian, $\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{\bf i} A t}$ is not unitary and we cannot run eigenvalue estimation. In this paper, we propose a quantum algorithm that uses Cauchy's integral formula and the trapezoidal rule as an approach that avoids eigenvalue estimation. We show that the runtime of the algorithm is $\mathrm{poly}(\log(1/ε))$ and the algorithm outputs state $\lvert f \rangle$ even if $A$ is not Hermitian.

description: We construct a class of quantum stochastic models of reservoir driven many-particle systems that are the natural counterparts of certain extensively studied classical ones, which have been shown to exhibit good hydrodynamical behaviour. Our treatment of these models achieves two main aims. The first is to show that they enjoy the hydrodynamical properties of their classical counterparts. The second is to show that they satisfy the key assumptions of the general quantum macrostatistical scheme, presented in earlier works by the author, which served to expose certain generic large scale features of nonequilibrium steady states, e.g. the long range of the hydrodynamical correlations that they carry. In this way we establish the viability of that scheme.

Center regions as a solution to the Gribov problem of the center vortex model

description: The center vortex model, capable of explaining confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, has been plagued by the lattice equivalent of Gribov copies: different maxima of the gauge functional lead to different predictions of the string tension. It is possible to resolve this problem using center regions, loops evaluating to center elements, as guide for the gauge fixing procedure. The success of this approach was already shown, but the algorithms came with an arbitrary free parameter. In recent development this parameter has been fixed, even improving the results.

description: Background: Ataxias represent a challenging group of disorders due to significant clinical overlap. Here, we present a patient with early-onset progressive ataxia, polyneuropathy and discuss how elevation of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) narrows the differential diagnosis. Case report: Ataxia, polyneuropathy, and mild elevation of AFP are features compatible with ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) but also with ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 4 (AOA4). A genetic analysis demonstrated biallelic mutations in senataxin (SETX), confirming the diagnosis of AOA2. Discussion: Mild elevation of AFP is found in patients with AOA2 and AOA4, and higher levels are commonly seen in ataxia-telangiectasia. AFP is a useful diagnostic tool but not a biomarker for disease progression in AOA2.

Subjects: subject: Programming Languages (cs.PL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This is a motivating tutorial introduction to a semantic analysis of programming languages using a graphical language as the representation of terms, and graph rewriting as a representation of reduction rules. We show how the graphical language automatically incorporates desirable features, such as alpha-equivalence and how it can describe pure computation, imperative store, and control features in a uniform framework. The graph semantics combines some of the best features of structural operational semantics and abstract machines, while offering powerful new methods for reasoning about contextual equivalence. All technical details are available in an extended technical report by Muroya and the author and in Muroya's doctoral dissertation.

description: We have used a set of dedicated astrometric data from the Hubble Space Telescope to measure the parallax and proper motion of the nearby neutron star RX J0720.4-3125. At each of eight epochs over two years, we used the High Resolution Camera of the Advanced Camera for Surveys to measure the position of the B=26.6 target to a precision of ~2 mas (~0.07 pix) relative to 22 other stars. From these data we measure a parallax of pi=2.8+/-0.9 mas (for a distance of 360+170-90 pc) and a proper motion of mu=107.8+/-1.2 mas/yr. Exhaustive testing of every stage of our analysis suggests that it is robust, with a maximum systematic uncertainty on the parallax of 0.4 mas. The distance is compatible with earlier estimates made from scaling the optical emission of RX J0720.4-3125 relative to the even closer neutron star RX J1856.5-3754. The distance and proper motion imply a transverse velocity of 180+90-40 km/s, comparable to velocities observed for radio pulsars. The speed and direction suggest an origin for RX J0720.4-3125 in the Trumpler 10 OB association ~0.7 Myr ago, with a possible range of 0.5-1.0 Myr given by the uncertainty in the distance.

description: Radial velocity surveys for extra-solar planets generally require substantial amounts of large telescope time in order to monitor a sufficient number of stars. Two of the aspects which can limit such surveys are the single-object capabilities of the spectrograph, and an inefficient observing strategy for a given observing window. In addition, the detection rate of extra-solar planets using the radial velocity method has thus far been relatively linear with time. With the development of various multi-object Doppler survey instruments, there is growing potential to dramatically increase the detection rate using the Doppler method. Several of these instruments have already begun usage in large scale surveys for extra-solar planets, such as FLAMES on the VLT and Keck ET on the Sloan 2.5m wide-field telescope. In order to plan an effective observing strategy for such a program, one must examine the expected results based on a given observing window and target selection. We present simulations of the expected results from a generic multi-object survey based on calculated noise models and sensitivity for the instrument and the known distribution of exoplanetary system parameters. We have developed code for automatically sifting and fitting the planet candidates produced by the survey to allow for fast follow-up observations to be conducted. The techniques presented here may be applied to a wide range of multi-object planet surveys.

Scaling breakdown in flow fluctuations on complex networks

description: We propose a model of random diffusion to investigate flow fluctuations in complex networks. We derive an analytical law showing that the dependence of fluctuations with the mean traffic in a network is ruled by the delicate interplay of three factors, respectively of dynamical, topological and statistical nature. In particular, we demonstrate that the existence of a power-law scaling characterizing the flow fluctuations at every node in the network can not be claimed for. We show the validity of this scaling breakdown under quite general topological and dynamical situations by means of different traffic algorithms and by analyzing real data.

description: Understanding the superconducting properties of MgB_2 is based strongly on knowledge of its electronic structure. In this paper we review experimental measurements of the Fermi surface parameters of pure and Al-doped MgB_2 using the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect. In general, the measurements are in excellent agreement with the theoretical predictions of the electronic structure, including the strength of the electron-phonon coupling on each Fermi surface sheet. For the Al doped samples, we are able to measure how the band structure changes with doping and again these are in excellent agreement with calculations based on the virtual crystal approximation. We also review work on the dHvA effect in the superconducting state.

Primary Orthostatic Tremor: Experience of Perampanel Use in 20 Patients

description: Background: Primary orthostatic tremor (POT) is a rare disorder for which current treatments are largely ineffective. Following up on our recent report of complete resolution of POT symptoms in a patient using low doses of perampanel, we describe our experience of perampanel in 20 patients. Methods: Twenty patients whose neurologists prescribed perampanel were recruited. Initial dose was 2 mg/day, which was increased to 4 mg/day after the first month. Treatment efficacy was self-scored from +3 to −3 at 1 and 3 months. Results: Eight patients withdrew due to adverse effects. Of the 12 patients who completed the study, 92% indicated that their POT symptoms had improved after 1 month, with 75% indicating moderate to marked improvement (mean score 1.9 ± 0.9). This improvement was not sustained by follow-up at 3 months (mean score 0.9 ± 1.3). A rebound of POT symptoms that lasted 2–6 weeks was observed in most patients who withdrew. Discussion: Our experience with this series of cases points to the potential of low-dose perampanel as a treatment for POT, although poor tolerance and the possibility of a non-persistent therapeutic benefit need to be considered. Controlled studies are needed to confirm these findings. Keywords: Orthostatic tremor, primary orthostatic tremor, tremor, perampanel, unsteadiness Citation: Gironell A, Marín-Lahoz J.

description: Background: Paraneoplastic chorea is typically a subacute progressive hyperkinetic movement disorder. The mainstay of treatment is managing the underlying neoplasm. However, the clinical course may be variable, and effective symptomatic management can precede the start of cancer treatment. Case report: A 63-year-old man presented with insidious onset, slowly progressive generalized chorea for 1 year, later diagnosed as anti-CV2/CRMP5 autoantibody positive paraneoplastic chorea. His chorea was markedly improved with intravenous amantadine. Discussion: In patients with anti-CV2/CRMP5 autoantibody-related chorea, sequential follow-up of brain magnetic resonance imaging reveals progression from active inflammation to atrophy. Our report highlights the efficacy of intravenous amantadine in paraneoplastic chorea.

description: Protons and neutrons have a rich structure in terms of their constituents, the quarks and gluons. Understanding this structure requires solving Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). However QCD is extremely complicated, so we must numerically solve the equations of QCD using a method known as lattice QCD. Here we describe a typical lattice QCD calculation by examining our recent computation of the nucleon axial charge.
