description: OBJECTIVE To determine whether antimicrobial-impregnated textiles decrease the acquisition of pathogens by healthcare provider (HCP) clothing. DESIGN We completed a 3-arm randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of 2 types of antimicrobial-impregnated clothing compared to standard HCP clothing. Cultures were obtained from each nurse participant, the healthcare environment, and patients during each shift. The primary outcome was the change in total contamination on nurse scrubs, measured as the sum of colony-forming units (CFU) of bacteria. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING Nurses working in medical and surgical ICUs in a 936-bed tertiary-care hospital. INTERVENTION Nurse subjects wore standard cotton-polyester surgical scrubs (control), scrubs that contained a complex element compound with a silver-alloy embedded in its fibers (Scrub 1), or scrubs impregnated with an organosilane-based quaternary ammonium and a hydrophobic fluoroacrylate copolymer emulsion (Scrub 2). Nurse participants were blinded to scrub type and randomly participated in all 3 arms during 3 consecutive 12-hour shifts in the intensive care unit. RESULTS In total, 40 nurses were enrolled and completed 3 shifts. Analyses of 2,919 cultures from the environment and 2,185 from HCP clothing showed that scrub type was not associated with a change in HCP clothing contamination ( P =.70). Mean difference estimates were 0.118 for the Scrub 1 arm (95% confidence interval [CI], −0.206 to 0.441; P =.48) and 0.009 for the Scrub 2 rm (95% CI, −0.323 to 0.342; P =.96) compared to the control. HCP became newly contaminated with important pathogens during 19 of the 120 shifts (16%). CONCLUSIONS Antimicrobial-impregnated scrubs were not effective at reducing HCP contamination. However, the environment is an important source of HCP clothing contamination. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT 02645214 Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2017;38:1147–1154

description: The classical gravity approximation is often employed in AdS/CFT to study the dual field theory, as it allows for many computations. A drawback is however the generic presence of singularities in classical gravity, which limits the applicability of AdS/CFT to regimes where the singularities are avoided by bulk probes, or some other form of regularisation is applicable. At the same time, quantum gravity is expected to resolve those singularities and thus to extend the range of applicability of AdS/CFT also in classically singular regimes. This paper exemplifies such a computation. We use an effective quantum corrected Kasner-AdS metric inspired by results from non-perturbative canonical quantum gravity to compute the 2-point correlator in the geodesic approximation for a negative Kasner exponent. The correlator derived in the classical gravity approximation has previously been shown to contain a pole at finite distance as a signature of the singularity. Using the quantum corrected metric, we show explicitly how the pole is resolved and that a new subdominant long-distance contribution to the correlator emerges, caused by geodesics passing arbitrarily close to the resolved classical singularity. In order to compute analytically in this paper, two key simplifications in the quantum corrected metric are necessary. They are lifted in a companion paper using numerical techniques, leading to the same qualitative results.

Preconditioning filter bank decompositions using structured normalized tight frames
Creators: name: Ehler, Martin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Functional Analysis (math.FA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We turn a given filter bank into a filtering scheme that provides perfect reconstruction, synthesis is the adjoint of the analysis part (so-called unitary filter banks), all filters have equal norm, and the essential features of the original filter bank are preserved. Unitary filter banks providing perfect reconstruction are induced by tight generalized frames, which enable signal decomposition using a set of linear operators. If, in addition, frame elements have equal norm, then the signal energy is spread through the various filter bank channels in some uniform fashion, which is often more suitable for further signal processing. We start with a given generalized frame whose elements allow for fast matrix vector multiplication, as for instance, convolution operators, and compute a normalized tight frame, for which signal analysis and synthesis still preserve those fast algorithmic schemes.

description: Well-established design patterns offer the possibility of standardized construction of software systems and can be used in various ways. The systematic use of design patterns in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Systems however, has received little attention so far, despite AI being a popular research area in recent years. AI systems can be used for a wide variety of applications and play an increasingly important role in business and everyday life. AI systems are becoming more complex however, the actual machine learning (ML) task comprises only a small part of the total source code of a system. In order to maintain a clear and structured architecture for such systems and to allow easy maintenance, standardized elements should be reused in the design. This paper describes possible applications of well-known design patterns in AI systems to improve traceability of the system design.

description: Abstract Background The prevalence of allergic diseases is approximately 10 % in infants whose parents and siblings do not have allergic diseases and 20–30 % in those with an allergic first-degree relative. Vitamin D is involved in the regulation of the immune system and it may play a role in the development, severity and course of asthma and other allergic diseases. Objective The World Allergy Organization (WAO) convened a guideline panel to develop evidence-based recommendations addressing the use of vitamin D in primary prevention of allergic diseases. Methods Our WAO guideline panel identified the most relevant clinical questions and performed a systematic review of randomized controlled trials and non-randomized studies (NRS), specifically cohort and case-control studies, of vitamin D supplementation for the prevention of allergic diseases. We also reviewed the evidence about values and preferences, and resource requirements (up to January 2015, with an update on January 30, 2016). We followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach to develop recommendations. Results Having reviewed the currently available evidence, the WAO guideline panel found no support for the hypothesis that vitamin D supplementation reduces the risk of developing allergic diseases in children. The WAO guideline panel suggest not using vitamin D in pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or healthy term infants as a means of preventing the development of allergic diseases. This recommendation does not apply to those mothers and infants who have other indications for prophylactic or therapeutic use of vitamin D. The panel’s recommendations are conditional and supported by very low certainty evidence. Conclusions WAO recommendations about vitamin D supplementation for the prevention of allergic diseases support parents, clinicians and other health care professionals in their decisions whether or not to use vitamin D in preventing allergic diseases in healthy, term infants.

The cryptic origins of evolutionary novelty: 1,000-fold-faster trophic diversification rates without increased ecological opportunity or hybrid swarm
Creators: name: Martin, Christopher Herbert
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Ecological opportunity is frequently proposed as the sole ingredient for adaptive radiation into novel niches. Alternatively, genome-wide hybridization resulting from hybrid swarm may be the trigger. However, these hypotheses have been difficult to test due to the rarity of comparable control environments lacking adaptive radiations. Here I exploit such a pattern in microendemic radiations of Caribbean pupfishes. I show that a sympatric three-species radiation on San Salvador Island, Bahamas diversified 1,445 times faster than neighboring islands in jaw length due to evolution of a novel scale-eating adaptive zone from a generalist ancestral niche. I then sampled 22 generalist populations on seven neighboring islands and measured morphological diversity, stomach content diversity, dietary isotopic diversity, genetic diversity, lake/island areas, macroalgae richness, and Caribbean-wide patterns of gene flow. None of these standard metrics of ecological opportunity or gene flow were associated with adaptive radiation, except for slight increases in macroalgae richness. Thus, exceptional trophic diversification is highly localized despite myriad generalist populations in comparable environmental and genetic backgrounds. This study provides a strong counterexample to the ecological/hybrid-swarm theories of adaptive radiation and suggests that diversification of novel specialists on a sparse fitness landscape is constrained by more than ecological opportunity and gene flow.

description: Nonlinear z-independent solutions to a generalized Grad-Shafranov equation (GSE) with up to quartic flux terms in the free functions and incompressible plasma flow non parallel to the magnetic field are constructed quasi-analytically. Through an ansatz the GSE is transformed to a set of three ordinary differential equations and a constraint for three functions of the coordinate x, in cartesian coordinates (x,y), which then are solved numerically. Equilibrium configurations for certain values of the integration constants are displayed. Examination of their characteristics in connection with the impact of nonlinearity and sheared flow indicates that these equilibria are consistent with the L-H transition phenomenology. For flows parallel to the magnetic field one equilibrium corresponding to the H-state is potentially stable in the sense that a sufficient condition for linear stability is satisfied in an appreciable part of the plasma while another solution corresponding to the L-state does not satisfy the condition. The results indicate that the sheared flow in conjunction with the equilibrium nonlinearity play a stabilizing role.

title: Trail counter calibration: the search for influences in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks
Creators: name: Laws, Thomas Ryan
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2013

description:
In National Parks across the country planners are currently experimenting with the use of automated counting devices as a means for estimating visitor use on trails. However, little is understood in regards to counter accuracy due to just recently becoming routinely used. Calibration as a result is becoming a standard practice to increase the accuracies of the data received. Even with this increase in use though, little research has been performed to better understand where calibration correction coefficient values should lie based on specific trail characteristics. This study contributes to the understanding of calibration and counter accuracy by using passive-infrared trail counters and time-lapse photography from May to September of 2012 to evaluate if the trail characteristics use, width, and slope are correlated with the correction coefficients received after calibration within Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Results found that strong correlations at a 95% confidence interval exist between the examined trail characteristics width and slope, and the trail calibration coefficients received. These results represent both an initial step to better understand how certain trail characteristics influence trail counter accuracy, suggests what methods are most preferable to increase these accuracies when calibrating, and encourage managers to use more stringent forms of calibration.

description: We propose an extension of Hybrid I/O Automata (HIOAs) to model agent systems and their implicit communication through perturbation of the environment, like localization of objects or radio signals diffusion and detection. To this end we decided to specialize some variables of the HIOAs whose values are functions both of time and space. We call them world variables. Basically they are treated similarly to the other variables of HIOAs, but they have the function of representing the interaction of each automaton with the surrounding environment, hence they can be output, input or internal variables. Since these special variables have the role of simulating implicit communication, their dynamics are specified both in time and space, because they model the perturbations induced by the agent to the environment, and the perturbations of the environment as perceived by the agent. Parallel composition of world variables is slightly different from parallel composition of the other variables, since their signals are summed. The theory is illustrated through a simple example of agents systems.

description: An important part in European cultural identity relies on European cities and in particular on their histories and cultural heritage. Nuremberg, the home of important artists such as Albrecht Dürer and Hans Sachs developed into the epitome of German and European culture already during the Middle Ages. Throughout history, the city experienced a number of transformations, especially with its almost complete destruction during World War 2. This position paper presents TRANSRAZ, a project with the goal to recreate Nuremberg by means of an interactive 3D tool to explore the city’s architecture and culture ranging from the 17th to the 21st century. The goal of this position paper is to discuss the ongoing work of connecting heterogeneous historical data from various sources previously hidden in archives to the 3D model using knowledge graphs for a scientifically accurate interactive exploration on the Web.

description: Traditional spintronics relies on spin transport by charge carriers, such as electrons in semiconductor crystals. This brings several complications: the Pauli principle prevents the carriers from moving with the same speed; Coulomb repulsion leads to rapid dephasing of electron flows. Spin-optronics is a valuable alternative to traditional spintronics. In spin-optronic devices the spin currents are carried by electrically neutral bosonic quasi-particles: excitons or exciton-polaritons. They can form highly coherent quantum liquids and carry spins over macroscopic distances. The price to pay is a finite life-time of the bosonic spin carriers. We present the theory of exciton ballistic spin transport which may be applied to a range of systems where bosonic spin transport has been reported, in particular, to indirect excitons in coupled GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. We describe the effect of spin-orbit interaction of electrons and holes on the exciton spin, account for the Zeeman effect induced by external magnetic fields, long range and short range exchange splittings of the exciton resonances. We also consider exciton transport in the non-linear regime and discuss the definitions of exciton spin current, polarization current and spin conductivity.

description: The process in Nevada used to select textbooks, the main tools for classroom instruction, is a complex web of various stakeholders and interactions. Ensuring that quality textbooks get into the hands of Nevada's teachers and students is the goal of the selection process. The main impediments affecting the selection process may be found in the structure of the process and how the stakeholders interact. In most cases, these interactions and responsibilities are dictated by state law and were established gradually over several years. While the current process functions to place textbooks in schools, it also shows great potential for improvement in accountability and efficiency.

description: Hard probes are a cornerstone in the ongoing program to determine the properties of hot and dense QCD matter as created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. LHC measurements have so far resulted in a wealth of high P_T data, opening new kinematic windows with high statistics. Yet on first glance, several observations are counter-intuitive and seem to contradict results from the RHIC high P_T program. This calls for a combined analysis of high P_T hadrons and reconstructed jets at RHIC and LHC in a unified framework testing a large number of theoretical models for both medium evolution and shower medium interactions against the systematics of the data. A consistent picture of shower-medium interaction emerges from this analysis which explains where and why results appear counter-intuitive.

description: Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital abnormality affecting thehypothalamic pituitary complex. It is characterized by a peculiar radiological triad which includes thin or interruptedpituitary stalk, hypoplasia or aplasia of the adenohypophysis and absent or ectopic neurohypophysis seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Patients affected by PSIS may show a wide range of clinical manifestations depending on the variable involvement of pituitary specialized cells, ranging from isolated to multiple pituitary hormone deficiency. The exact aetiology of PSIS is still uncertain, even if genetic causes arelikely to be involved in some cases, especially mutations in genes implicated in pituitary and neuronal development. Prognosis may vary according to several factors, the most relevant of which is diagnostical-timing, being strictly related to the start of hormonal replacement therapy.This report describes an emblematic PSIS case diagnosed in a 15-year-old girl with primary amenorrhoea and short stature. Her past medical history was not significant. Accurate diagnostic investigation including bone age examination, basal hormonal evaluation and growth hormone stimulation dynamic tests were performed, revealingcombined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD). MRI findings confirmed a picture of PSIS. The case highlights the importance of accurate history taking and careful monitoring of growth and pubertal development, which is crucial to avoid diagnostic delay and to allow promptly hormonal replacement therapy.

description: The Tunka Radio Extension (Tunka-Rex) is a digital antennaarray (63 antennas distributed over≈1 km2) co-located with the TAIGAobservatory in Eastern Siberia. Tunka-Rex measures radio emission ofair-showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays in the frequencyband of 30-80 MHz. Air-shower signal is a short (tens of nanoseconds)broadband pulse. Using time positions and amplitudes of these pulses,we reconstruct parameters of air showers and primary cosmic rays. Theamplitudes of low-energy event (E<1017eV) cannot be used for suc-cesful reconstruction due to the domination of background. To lower theenergy threshold of the detection and increase the efficiency, we use au-toencoder neural network which removes noise from the measured data.This work describes our approach to denoising raw data and furtherreconstruction of air-shower parameters. We also present results of thelow-energy events reconstruction with autoencoder.
For the benefit of others: Harriet Martineau: feminist, abolitionist and travel writer
Creators: name: Labovitz, Laura J.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: One of the distinctive and remarkable traits of Harriet Martineau was her need to publish information that she believed would benefit society. Her publications - Illustrations of Political Economy (1832),  Society in America (1837) and Retrospect of Western Travel  (1838) - have the distinct characteristic of being published with the intent to inform and educate the British public. Scholars have focused on her later 1848 publication, Eastern Life: Present and Past, as her most important publication. Yet I will argue that it was her earlier works which set the stage for this later, better known book. Her travel to the United States in 1834 to 1836 showed her the moral problems with slavery, although her anti-slavery beliefs had already been published in 1832.
The writings of Harriet Martineau must also be viewed as crucial to the rise of women in the Victorian public sphere. Martineau 's ability to travel to the United States as well as the Middle-East gave her writings a sense of power and authority with the British public. As Martineau 's work rose to prominence, the place of women in the slavery debate changed as well. Women no longer worked only as behind-the-scenes activists, but also formed their own Anti-Slavery societies and published pamphlets and periodicals.
It will be shown that Harriet Martineau could be considered a radical in Victorian society, although she worked within the confines of roles acceptable for women of Britain. She was a woman who traveled with the intent to understand a society different from her own and chose to take a public stand on an institution she deemed an abomination. Through her earlier writings, which are rarely discussed by scholars, one can understand the beliefs she held and published throughout her life.

Therefore, the outputs of this study could be helpful to marketing theorists who will apply to the dual system theory.
Distribution of Diffusion Constants and Stokes-Einstein Violation in supercooled liquids

description: It is widely believed that the breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein (SE) relation between the translational diffusivity and the shear viscosity in supercooled liquids is due to the development of dynamic heterogeneity i.e. the presence of both slow and fast moving particles in the system. In this study we \emph{directly} calculate the distribution of the diffusivity for a model system for different temperatures in the supercooled regime. We find that with decreasing temperature, the distribution evolves from Gaussian to bimodal indicating that on the time scale of the typical relaxation time, mobile (fluid like) and less mobile (solid like) particles in the system can be \emph{unambiguously} identified. We also show that less mobile particles obey the Stokes-Einstein relation even in the supercooled regime and it is the mobile particles which show strong violation of the Stokes-Einstein relation in agreement with the previous studies on different model glass forming systems. Motivated by some of the recent studies where an ideal glass transition is proposed by randomly pinning some fraction of particles, we then studied the SE breakdown as a function of random pinning concentration in our model system. We showed that degree of SE breakdown increases quite dramatically with increasing pinning concentration, thereby providing a new way to unravel the puzzles of SE violation in supercooled liquids in greater details.

description: Familial male-limited precocious puberty (FMPP), or testotoxicosis, is a rare cause of precocious puberty in males. It is caused by an activating mutation in the luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) gene. This causes excessive production of testosterone, with LH and FSH levels suppressed. Generally, boys present with signs of puberty, with age of onset between 2-5 years essentially with penis and testes growth, linear growth acceleration and progressive bone age advancement. Differential diagnosis is often a challenge with others causes of peripheral puberty. The goal of treatment is to decrease the effect of testosterone as well as reduce the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. The long-term aims are to prevent precocious virilization and to delay closure of the epiphyseal plates to maintain adult height potential. Little is known about the long-term effects of treatment because the disorder is so rare. However recent studies using bicalutamide and anastrozole have been promising. In this report, we present a boy with FMPP with a classic mutation in the LHCGR gene, who has been challenging to manage with off-label drugs.

Computational study of Passive Neutron Albedo Reactivity (PNAR) measurement with fission chambers
Creators: name: De La Cruz, Sandra
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: The Passive Neutron Albedo Reactivity technique (PNAR) was used to assay used nuclear fuel as a potential method for the measurement of fissionable material in fuel assemblies. A Monte Carlo transport code (MCNPX 2.6) was used to develop simulation models to evaluate the PNAR technique. The MCNPX simulated models consisted of two 17x17 Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) used fuel assemblies; one with an initial 3 wt% uranium-235*, cooled for 20 years and second with an initial 4 wt% uranium-235*, cooled for 5 years. Each used fuel assembly was simulated at four different burn up rates of 15, 30, 45, and 60 GWd/tU. Four fission chamber (FC) detectors were placed around the used fuel assembly. The four FC detectors considered in this study used Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU), Uranium Dioxide (UO 2 ), Depleted Uranium (DU) and Thorium (Th) FC detectors as the neutron detection material.
The purpose of this study as to understand the characteristics of PNAR method and to identify a FC detector system to analyze used nuclear fuel assemblies. Results showed HEU FC detectors responded better than the other FC detectors based on cadmium ratio and on the precision counting time. The cadmium ratio response using the PNAR measurement technique with both PWR Fuel Assemblies 1 and 2, the HEU FC detector performed 0.3% better than UO 2 , 3% better than DU and 30% better than thorium FC detectors. Based upon the detector counting time for both PWR fuel assemblies 1 and 2, the HEU FC detector 's counting time was less than one minute, considerably less than the other three FC detectors.
Salvatore Calandruccio, Sicilian parasitologist: a story we never wanted to tell.

Subjects: parasitologist, diatribe, forgotten scientists

description: Salvatore Calandruccio was born on Christmas Day 1858 in Taormina to a family of humble origins. The family's financial straits did not allow him to continue his studies and so he decided to work as a teacher. For ten years, he worked in this profession; however, the flame of knowledge that burned within him had not dimmed in the slightest and so he decided to continue his studies and first took a degree in Medicine (1888) and then one in Natural Sciences (1891) at the Royal University of Catania. He conducted studies with Giovanni Battista Grassi that were relevant to the progress of parasitology. Grassi published under his own name the results of joint research carried out on the relationship between malaria and mosquitoes, for which he received awards including the Darwin Medal in 1896. Salvatore Calandruccio's contribution, who appealed against the non-recognition, was only recognised after his death from nephritis, contracted while conducting sampling for the study on Murenoids.

A missing concept? A short postulation about the need for human understanding and an often only implicitly given, fundamental aspect of modeling efforts

description: In almost all fundamental modeling or description approaches, especially those meant for the domain of (business) process, there is one description aspect often missing that is core to human understanding of the world: the aspect of active entity or the concept of the subject and its strict differentiation from passive entities (objects). This work postulates that this simple idea is of great importance when approaching any description/modeling, be it made by humans as input/instruction for information systems or AI engines, or be it generated by such a system to explain its inner workings to humans to enable better understanding and therefore acceptance. Therefore, it is proposed that any formal or informal modeling approach should consider these aspects in order to better facilitate human understanding of models and avoid humans working around the lack of expressiveness or try to erroneous interpret non-given information.

Odd variations on the species: Stories
Creators: name: Kokernot, Sarah
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: My thesis is a collection of short stories exploring the tension between traditional narrative and the fantastic. "The Russians Have Come" was published in the February 2011 edition of PANK magazine. Another story, "Union," was part of a collaborative project with visual artist Lindsay Berg. Both the story and artwork appeared at the exhibit "I Hope You Are Feeling Better" at the Las Vegas Community Arts Center in September 2011. The rest of the stories are unpublished, and range from microfiction to the first draft of a novella. While the subject matter often veers to the outlandish, the structure is typically a conventional narrative with a clear beginning, middle, and end. I 've found that it 's useful to temper the marvelous with the sobriety of linear narrative.
Many of the stories here are concerned with the human impulse to destroy that which confounds us. In Sacred Bone, the narrator is so bewildered by his wife 's sexuality that he can only relate to her by communicating to her diminutive, lessthreatening self: a mermaid tattoo on her back which tells him stories of life in the ocean. "The Russians Have Come" is told by xenophobic teachers who mistake personal idiosyncrasy with cultural difference. In "The Glove," the young girls of the orphanage are so astonished by their friend 's death that their naive attempt to attenuate it appears macabre. In all of these examples, the impulse to destroy often arises from a desire to return to an ordered world, and the end result usually reels the characters into further confusion.
Such is the case with the narrator in "Thought To Be Extinct." Daniel discovers a species of talking crab near his grandmother 's home on the Carolina coasts. The crab appears harmless - even intelligent - but his grandmother insists that chatter crab is deceptive and vicious (and a powerful fertility drug). Daniel makes a decision, and spends much of the story attempting to convince himself that it was the right one, but doubt lingers. Mrs. Hanson in "Grace Lewinsky, Glacier Queen" faces a similar predicament: whether to commit an act of culturally accepted violence, or to follow her own conscience and reason.
The remaining stories deal with brighter themes, namely, love and the happiness we find in it. In "Las Vegas Love Story," "Market Day," "Accounting," and "Union" the characters are basically well-adjusted people who find joy in each other. My motivation for writing is a usually celebratory one. Even in the darkest stories, I hope to convey the richness and peculiarity of our condition.
