description: The current study examined the individual and joint effects of self-reported adult attachment style, psychological distress, and parenting stress on maternal caregiving behaviors at 6 and 12 months of child age. We proposed a diathesis-stress model to examine the potential deleterious effects of stress for mothers with insecure adult attachment styles. Data from 137 mothers were gathered by the longitudinal Durham Child Health and Development Study. Mothers provided self-reports using Hazan and Shaver’s (1987) Adult Attachment Style measure, the Brief Symptom Inventory, and the Parent Stress Inventory; observations of parenting data were made from 10-minute free play interactions. Consistently avoidant mothers were less sensitive with their infants than consistently secure mothers; however, this effect was limited to avoidant mothers who experienced elevated levels of psychological distress. Results suggest that the association between insecure adult attachment style and insensitive parenting behavior is moderated by concurrent psychosocial stress. Clinical implications for these findings are discussed.
title: The Influence Of Soil Organic Matter (SOM) In Soils From Long-Term Experiments: Measurements Of Compression Properties, Water Release Curves, Thermogravimetry, Acoustical Impedance And Neutron Tomography
Creators: name: Suravi, Kamrun Nahar

description: Soil Organic matter (SOM) is a very important factor in soil productivity and health. As SOM is the basis of nutrient cycling in soil, it has important consequences for both plant growth and the development of the root system. Also, organic matter influences the physical and mechanical properties of soils by improving soil structure and changing the soil pore system. Soil physical properties determine soil health and regulate plant growth by controlling root development and maintaining the availability of water and nutrients to plants. The effect of soil organic carbon (SOC) on the consolidation behaviour of soil from two long-term field experiments at Rothamsted (the Broadbalk winter wheat experiment and Hoosfield spring barley) has been investigated. These experiments are located on soil with similar particle size distributions, but with SOC contents ranging from approximately 1 to 3.5 g/100g. Soils taken from plots with contrasting SOC contents were compressed and deformed in a triaxial cell and the normal consolidation and critical state lines were determined. It has been found that the compression index was independent of SOC, but the void ratio at any given effective stress was highly correlated with organic carbon content. By comparison with uniaxial compression data, the apparent influence of SOC on the compression index is likely to be due to its effect on soil hydraulic properties rather than any intrinsic effects on strength. The plastic limit test appears to be a useful, simple and direct way of comparing soil physical behaviour and expected soil density. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) has been used to deduce the organic matter content and its composition. Water release characteristics, and soil strength have been measured with the suction plate method and indirect tension method, respectively. As well the traditional measurements, the application of two relatively novel methods including neutron scattering by thin soil slices and non-invasive acoustical reflection from samples in an impedance tube is reported. The neutron scattering data has not proved useful as a result of the difficulties in obtaining and using soil samples in the required form. However, impedance tube measurements show that (a) the sound absorption of the surfaces of sand and soil samples decreases with increasing water content and (b) changes in absorption coefficient spectra deduced from impedance tube measurements on soil samples extracted from the long-term agriculture experiments, involving different organic matter content but similar water content, are consistent with the predicted effects of changes in porosity and permeability in rigid-porous air-filled media. The increase in bulk porosity with organic matter increase suggested by the acoustic measurements agrees with the results of the water retention and compression tests

This lower bound is sharp in every case where it could be checked. A special case of this lower bound yields the general Jiang-Li-Vitányi lower bound. We obtain new results e.g. determining the average-case complexity precisely in the Yao-Janson-Knuth 3-pass case.

description: Depression is a serious disorder with severe and far-reaching consequences. Two decades of observational research have shown robust associations between maternal depression and adverse consequences on offspring (Campbell et al., 2004; Campbell, Matestic, von Stauffenberg, Mohan, & Kirchner, 2007; Campbell, Morgan-Lopez, Cox, & McLoyd, 2009; National Research Council & Institute of Medicine, 2009). Depressive symptoms may pose particular risk to infants and toddlers with neurodevelopmental disabilities, whose long-term outcomes depend heavily on the provision of Early Intervention (EI). EI is most effective with active parental engagement. Maternal depressive symptoms may reduce parental engagement, thereby limiting EI benefits to the child (Gaynes, Gavin & Meltzer –Brody, 2005; O’Hara & Swain, 1996). At present, maternal mental health is not directly addressed in EI. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the literature and significance of maternal depression and apply that evidence to mothers of children with developmental delays and disabilities. We conclude that maternal mental health and well-being is currently insufficiently addressed in the EI population. An increased integration of mental health and EI services is needed to serve the unique needs of families who face an increased risk of stress and depression while coping with their child’s special needs.
T-duality as coordinates permutation in double space

description: We introduce the $2D$ dimensional double space with the coordinates $Z^M= (x^μ, y_μ)$ which components are the coordinates of initial space $x^μ$ and its T-dual $y_μ$. We shall show that in this extended space the T-duality transformations can be realized simply by exchanging places of some coordinates $x^a$, along which we want to perform T-duality and the corresponding dual coordinates $y_a$. In such approach it is evident that T-duality leads to the physically equivalent theory and that complete set of T-duality transformations form subgroup of the $2D$ permutation group. So, in the double space we are able to represent the backgrounds of all T-dual theories in unified manner.

A discrete population of mononuclear phagocytes detected by monoclonal antibody.

Year: 1980

description: Rat monoclonal antibody raised against cultured mouse bone marrow was used to detect an antigenic determinant on a discrete population of mouse mononuclear phagocytes by indirect immunofluorescence. The antigen was expressed on adherent, late-cultured bone marrow macrophages and chronic inflammatory peritoneal macrophages elicited by the injection of thioglycolate broth. Binding of the antibody to resident peritoneal or alveolar macrophages, blood monocytes, or freshly explanted bone marrow cells was not detected. Less than 10% of acute inflammatory mononuclear phagocytes expressed the antigen. The antibody did not bind detectably to lymphocytes, granulocytes, erythrocytes, fibroblasts, or the cells of several murine tumor lines. Results suggesting binding to mast cells were equivocal. The antigen was species, but not strain, specific. It was concluded that maturation, at least, was required for expression of the antigen. Results suggested that additional influences were also involved.

description: Legislators, designers of legal information systems, as well as citizens face often problems due to the interdependence of the laws and the growing number of references needed to interpret them. Quantifying this complexity is not an easy task. In this paper, we introduce the "Legislation Network" as a novel approach to address related problems. We have collected an extensive data set of a more than 60-year old legislation corpus, as published in the Official Journal of the European Union, and we further analysed it as a complex network, thus gaining insight into its topological structure. Among other issues, we have performed a temporal analysis of the evolution of the Legislation Network, as well as a robust resilience test to assess its vulnerability under specific cases that may lead to possible breakdowns. Results are quite promising, showing that our approach can lead towards an enhanced explanation in respect to the structure and evolution of legislation properties.

description: Muramic acid is a component of the peptidoglycan moiety of cell walls of all bacteria and blue-green algae and is not found elsewhere in nature. A gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry assay for muramic acid in tissue is described. The application of the method to the detection of muramic acid in tissues of rats with streptococcal cell wall-induced polyarthritis is demonstrated. Because the method has the potential to measure total bacterial biomass in tissue, it should prove to be an important assay in elucidating the etiological role of bacterial debris in chronic inflammatory diseases in humans.

description: Covariate balance is a conventional key diagnostic for methods used estimating causal effects from observational studies. Recently, there is an emerging interest in directly incorporating covariate balance in the estimation. We study a recently proposed entropy maximization method called Entropy Balancing (EB), which exactly matches the covariate moments for the different experimental groups in its optimization problem. We show EB is doubly robust with respect to linear outcome regression and logistic propensity score regression, and it reaches the asymptotic semiparametric variance bound when both regressions are correctly specified. This is surprising to us because there is no attempt to model the outcome or the treatment assignment in the original proposal of EB. Our theoretical results and simulations suggest that EB is a very appealing alternative to the conventional weighting estimators that estimate the propensity score by maximum likelihood.

Phospholipase B in the Brains and Meninges of Nonsensitized and Sensitized Rats After Challenge with Angiostrongylus cantonensis
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1980

description: After a primary infection with 100 Angiostrongylus cantonensis larvae, infected rats showed elevated phospholipase B activity in meningeal and brain homogenates beginning with the first week and continuing through the first month of infection. The rise in phospholipase B values through the first 4 weeks, with a prolonged peak spanning days 30 to 31, coincided with the invasion and maturation of the parasites in the brain, and the ensuing sharp decline in phospholipase B levels, shown by the readings on day 45, coincided in turn with the known migration of the worms from the brain to the lungs, which begins about 5 weeks after infection. In the meninges, the pattern of enzyme elevation was generally similar to that in the brain samples except that the highest activity was seen earlier at days 8 to 9, followed by a gradual decline by days 30 to 31 and a sharper drop by day 45. Rats challenged with 100 larvae 53 days after the primary infection exhibited an almost immediate rise of phospholipase B activity in both the brain and meninges; the peaks of activity occurred at day 1 for the meninges and day 25 for the brain, and levels above control values were still present at day 50. Comparison of the total enzymatic content of the cerebral tissue and meninges revealed that a remarkably high proportion of the phospholipase B activity was contained in the meninges. The inference that elevated levels of this enzyme in the cerebral tissue of A. cantonensis-infected rats are due to inflammatory reactions within the meningeal envelopes was confirmed by histochemical demonstration of specific sites of enzymatic activity limited to the meninges. It is of interest that 80% of the cells positive for the enzyme were clearly identifiable as eosinophils since an association of bone marrow eosinophilia and high phospholipase B levels in rats infected with A. cantonensis was shown in our earlier study of rats infected with this parasite.

In contrast, we construct the canonical basis of the modified quantum coideal algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$, establish the positivity of its structure constants, the positivity with respect to a geometric bilinear form as well as the positivity of its action on the tensor powers of the natural representation. The matrix coefficients of the transfer map on these Schur algebras with respect to the canonical bases are shown to be positive.

A class of knots with simple $SU(2)$ representations
Creators: name: Zentner, Raphael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Geometric Topology (math.GT)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We call a knot in the 3-sphere $SU(2)$-simple if all representations of the fundamental group of its complement which map a meridian to a trace-free element in $SU(2)$ are binary dihedral. This is a generalisation of being a 2-bridge knot. Pretzel knots with bridge number $\geq 3$ are not $SU(2)$-simple. We provide an infinite family of knots $K$ with bridge number $\geq 3$ which are $SU(2)$-simple. One expects the instanton knot Floer homology $I^\natural(K)$ of a $SU(2)$-simple knot to be as small as it can be -- of rank equal to the knot determinant $\det(K)$. In fact, the complex underlying $I^\natural(K)$ is of rank equal to $\det(K)$, provided a genericity assumption holds that is reasonable to expect. Thus formally there is a resemblance to strong L-spaces in Heegaard Floer homology. For the class of $SU(2)$-simple knots that we introduce this formal resemblance is reflected topologically: The branched double covers of these knots are strong L-spaces. In fact, somewhat surprisingly, these knots are alternating. However, the Conway spheres are hidden in any alternating diagram. With the methods we use, we show that an integer homology 3-sphere which is a graph manifold always admits irreducible representations of its fundamental group.

Surface Characterization of Virulent Treponema pallidum

Year: 1980

description: Characterization of the surface of Treponema pallidum was accomplished by [(125)I]lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of intact organisms and sensitive radioimmunoprecipitation and gel electrophoresis technology. At least 11 outer membrane proteins with molecular weights ranging from 89,000 (89K) to 20K were identified, and all elicited high titers of antibody in experimentally infected rabbits. Proteins of 89.5K, 29.5K, and 25.5K previously implicated as ligands involved in attachment (J. B. Baseman and E. C. Hayes, J. Exp. Med. 151:573-586, 1980) were found to reside on the treponemal surface. Low levels of the 89.5K treponemal protein were released by high salt concentrations, whereas the remaining comigrating material was neither radioiodinated nor released with selective detergents. Other lower-molecular-weight (60K, 45K, and 30K) surface proteins were extracted with octyl glucoside detergent, suggesting their hydrophobic interaction with the external membrane. The molecular organization of surface proteins was studied by employing the cross-linker dithiobis(succinimidyl)-propionate, and data suggested the presence of a highly fluid envelope resulting in random collisions by the surface proteins. The biological function of the treponemal outer envelope proteins was evaluated using, as the indicator system, adherence of T. pallidum to monolayer cultures of eucaryotic cells. Trypsin treatment of motile, freshly harvested organisms decreased the extent of surface parasitism to normal rabbit testicular cells, reinforcing the idea of the proteinaceous nature and role of treponemal ligands for attachment. Other data supported functional and antigenic relatedness among the implicated ligands. Finally, brief periodate treatment of human epithelial (HEp-2) and normal rat testicular cells as well as casein-elicited rabbit peritoneal macrophages significantly reduced the extent of treponemal parasitism, suggesting a role of specific host membrane molecules as mediators of attachment.

Year: 1980

description: The ultrastructural organization of Mycoplasma pneumoniae membranes and spatial relationships of this pathogen to epithelial cells in tracheal organ cultures were examined ultrastructurally by freeze-fracture techniques. Areas of morphologically distinct cell membrane variability characterized by membrane blebs and altered distributions of membrane associated particles were observed in replicas of M. pneumoniae cells. Inspection of the host tracheal epithelium demonstrated the alignment of M. pneumoniae to the epithelium with an accompanying deterioration in the integrity of the lumenal surface membranes and subsequent loss of the epithelial cell cytosol. Ciliary dysfunction was suggested by the observation of ciliary lesions and of disorganized epithelial cell cilia. The methodology used in these studies has permitted a new perspective of host-pathogen interactions at both the cellular and subcellular levels in tracheal organ cultures. These studies may also illustrate ultrastructural correlates of the alteration of host macromolecular synthesis in experimental M. pneumoniae infection.

Ability of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Neisseria meningitidis, and commensal Neisseria species to obtain iron from transferrin and iron compounds.

description: The ability of Neisseria species to use iron compounds and to compete with iron-binding proteins was examined with deferrated defined medium and the iron chelator deferoxamine. All Neisseria species were able to assimilate a variety of ferric and ferrous iron salts. They were not able to efficiently solubilize an inorganic iron salt such as ferric nitrate, but were able to use iron chelated by citrate, oxalacetate, pyrophosphate, or nitrilotriacetate. Each of the 95 Neisseria isolates examined was able to use hemin as a sole source of iron, and most, but not all, of the isolates were able to obtain iron from hemoglobin. Heated human serum stimulated growth of all gonococci, meningococci, and some commensal Neisseria species in iron-deficient medium. All gonococci and meningococci were able to scavenge iron from 25% saturated transferrin, whereas most commensal organisms were inhibited by this iron-binding protein. The ability to compete with transferrin was specific, since partially saturated conalbumin was bacteriostatic for all Neisseria species. Although the pathogenic Neisseria species were able to compete more efficiently with transferrin for iron than were the nonpathogenic Neisseria species, no correlation was observed between the virulence of different strains or colony types of gonococci and the ability to scavenge iron in vitro from transferrin or other chelators.

description: We compare model results from a semi-analytic (merger-tree based) framework for high-redshift (z ~ 5-20) galaxy formation against reionization indicators, including the Planck electron scattering optical depth and the ionizing photon emissivity, to shed light on the reionization history and sources in Cold (CDM) and Warm Dark Matter (WDM; particle masses of $m_x = 1.5,3$ and 5 keV) cosmologies. This model includes all the key processes of star formation, supernova feedback, the merger/accretion/ejection driven evolution of gas and stellar mass and the effect of the ultra-violet background (UVB) in photo-evaporating the gas content of low-mass galaxies. We find that the delay in the start of reionization in light (1.5 keV) WDM models can be compensated by a steeper redshift evolution of the ionizing photon escape fraction and a faster mass assembly, resulting in reionization ending at comparable redshifts (z~5.5) in all the DM models considered. We find the bulk of the reionization photons come from galaxies with a halo mass $M_h < 10^9 M_\odot$ and a UV magnitude $ -15 < M_{UV} < -10$ in CDM. The progressive suppression of low-mass halos with decreasing $m_x$ leads to a shift in the reionization population to larger halo masses of $M_h > 10^9 M_\odot$ and $ -17 < M_{UV} < -13$ for 1.5 keV WDM. We find that current observations of the electron scattering optical depth and the Ultra-violet luminosity function are equally compatible with all the (cold and warm) DM models considered in this work. We propose that global indicators including the redshift evolution of the stellar mass density and the stellar mass-halo mass relation, observable with the James Webb Space Telescope, can be used to distinguish between CDM and WDM (1.5 keV) cosmologies.

description: We investigate equivariant and invariant topological complexity of spheres endowed with smooth non-free actions of cyclic groups of prime order. We prove that semilinear $\mathbb{Z}/p$-spheres have both invariants either $2$ or $3$ and calculate exact values in all but two cases for linear actions. On the other hand, we exhibit examples which show that these invariants can be arbitrarily high in the class of smooth $\mathbb{Z}/p$-spheres.

description: The observation that a graph of rank $n$ can be assembled from graphs of smaller rank $k$ with $s$ leaves by pairing the leaves together leads to a process for assembling homology classes for $Out(F_n)$ and $Aut(F_n)$ from classes for groups $Γ_{k,s}$, where the $Γ_{k,s}$ generalize $Out(F_k)=Γ_{k,0}$ and $Aut(F_k)=Γ_{k,1}$. The symmetric group $Σ_s$ acts on $H_*(Γ_{k,s})$ by permuting leaves, and for trivial rational coefficients we compute the $Σ_s$-module structure on $H_*(Γ_{k,s})$ completely for $k \leq 2$. Assembling these classes then produces all the known nontrivial rational homology classes for $Aut(F_n)$ and $Out(F_n)$ with the possible exception of classes for $n=7$ recently discovered by L. Bartholdi. It also produces an enormous number of candidates for other nontrivial classes, some old and some new, but we limit the number of these which can be nontrivial using the representation theory of symmetric groups. We gain new insight into some of the most promising candidates by finding small subgroups of $Aut(F_n)$ and $Out(F_n)$ which support them and by finding geometric representations for the candidate classes as maps of closed manifolds into the moduli space of graphs. Finally, our results have implications for the homology of the Lie algebra of symplectic derivations.

Characterization of hemadsorption-negative mutants of Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

description: Previously isolated mutants of Mycoplasma pneumoniae incapable of hemadsorption were characterized with respect to specific protein content, tracheal ring attachment capability, and virulence for both in vitro and in vivo model systems. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed both quantitative and qualitative differences between the protein complements of two different mutant strains and that of the virulent parent strain. Studies of mycoplasma attachment to hamster tracheal rings in vitro demonstrated that only one of these mutant strains still possessed the ability to attach to the respiratory epithelium via neuraminidase-sensitive receptors. Measurement of [3H]orotic acid uptake in mycoplasma-infected tracheal rings indicated that infection with the hemadsorption-negative mutants resulted in only slight reductions of ribonucleic acid synthesis, similar to levels observed for tracheal rings infected with an avirulent strain of M. pneumoniae. The virulence potential of the two mutant strains was further investigated by utilizing the hamster model system. Both mutant strains were rapidly cleared from the lungs of infected animals and produced little or no microscopic pneumonia.

description: We identify a nontrivial multistate Landau-Zener model for which transition probabilities between any pair of diabatic states can be determined analytically and exactly. In the semiclassical picture, this model features the possibility of interference of different trajectories that connect the same initial and final states. Hence, transition probabilities are generally not described by the incoherent successive application of the Landau-Zener formula. We discuss reasons for integrability of this system and provide numerical tests of the suggested expression for the transition probability matrix.

Effects of cell source, mouse strain, and immunosuppressive treatment on production of virulent and attenuated murine cytomegalovirus.

description: Murine cytomegalovirus pools from various in vitro and in vivo sources were compared for virulence in suckling mice in an effort to identify the conditions which were necessary for the production of virulent and attenuated viruses. Virus passaged in tracheal ring and salivary gland organ cultures, where virus is produced primarily by epithelial cells, was even more attenuated than virus passaged in mouse embryo fibroblasts. The attenuation observed after passage in all three of these in vitro systems did not appear to be due to defective interfering particles. We also found that virus produced in vivo in salivary glands became attenuated with time after infection. Virus harvested from salivary glands 5 to 6 weeks after infection was highly attenuated compared with both salivary gland-passaged virus harvested 2 to 3 weeks after infection and tissue culture-passaged virus. The attenuation of salivary gland-passaged virus with time was reversed when animals were treated with cyclophosphamide before the virus was harvested. A comparison of virus pools harvested from susceptible and resistant mouse strains indicated that the mouse strain had little effect on the virulence of the virus produced. When the various sources of virus tested in this study were ranked in terms of the virulence of the virus produced, salivary glands in intact mice either 2 to 3 weeks after infection or after cyclophosphamide treatment produced the most virulent virus, followed by mouse embryo fibroblast cultures, tracheal ring and salivary gland organ cultures, and, finally, salivary glands in intact mice 5 to 6 weeks after infection.

Ability of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Neisseria meningitidis, and commensal Neisseria species to obtain iron from lactoferrin.
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1982

description: The ability of 107 Neisseria isolates to compete for iron with human lactoferrin (LF) was examined. Each of 15 meningococci, 53% of 59 selected gonococci, and 24% of 33 commensal Neisseria could use LF-bound iron for growth. Isolates which could not obtain iron from LF were growth inhibited when sufficient LF was added to defined agar medium to bind available free iron. No difference was observed in the ability of colony type 1 and colony type 4 gonococci of the same strain to compete with LF for iron. LF was growth inhibitory for 50% of 22 disseminated disease isolates (DGI strains) and 51% of 35 local urogenital disease isolates (UGI strains). Only 14% of gonococcal isolates requiring arginine, hypoxanthine, and uracil for growth were able to compete with LF for iron, whereas 87% of all other gonococcal isolates could do so (P less than 0.005). Ability to obtain iron from LF does not appear to be required for survival of Neisseria on mucosal surfaces, nor essential for invasion of the bloodstream by gonococci. However, ability to utilize LF as a source of iron may contribute to differences in pathogenicity among certain gonococcal isolates.
