description: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) expanded rapidly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the public health emergency has ended, researchers and practitioners are looking to shift the focus of existing wastewater surveillance programs to other targets, including bacteria. Bacterial targets may pose some unique challenges for WBE applications. To explore the current state of the field, the National Science Foundation-funded Research Coordination Network (RCN) on Wastewater Based Epidemiology for SARS-CoV-2 and Emerging Public Health Threats held a workshop in April 2023 to discuss the challenges and needs for wastewater bacterial surveillance. The targets and methods used in existing programs were diverse, with twelve differentdifferentdifferenttargets and nine different methods listed. Discussions during the workshop highlighted the challenges in adapting existing programs and identified research gaps in four key areas: choosing new targets, relating bacterial wastewater data to human disease incidence and prevalence, developing methods, and normalizing results. To help with these challenges and research gaps, the authors identified steps the larger community can take to improve bacteria wastewater surveillance. This includes developing data reporting standards and method optimization and validation for bacterial programs. Additionally, more work is needed to understand shedding patterns for potential bacterial targets to better relate wastewater data to human infections. Wastewater surveillance for bacteria can help provide insight into the underlying prevalence in communities, but much work is needed to establish these methods.

description: The arc metric is an asymmetric metric on the Teichm{ü}ller space T(S) of a surface S with nonempty boundary. In this paper we study the relation between Thurston's compactification and the horofunction compactification of T(S) endowed with the arc metric. We prove that there is a natural homeomorphism between the two compactifications.

description: Purpose: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends recombinant zoster vaccination (RZV) for adults ≥ 50 years to prevent herpes zoster (HZ) and its sequelae. Initially, no distinct recommendation was made for immunocompromised adults, who experience higher HZ rates and more severe outcomes. We characterized receipt of first RZV dose (initiation) and both doses (completion) over time, and the impact of immune function on RZV uptake among adults aged 50–64 years in the United States. Methods: We identified RZV claims from the IBM MarketScan database between 1/1/2018 and 12/31/2019. We characterized immunocompromised enrollees as having malignancy, HIV, solid organ transplant, primary immunosuppression, or medication-induced immunosuppression using inpatient, outpatient, and prescription claims in the 6 months prior to study start. We evaluated patterns of vaccine uptake by demographic and healthcare access characteristics and immune status. Results: The cumulative incidence of RZV initiation during the study period was 10.0%. Incidence increased with age and number of medical office visits, and was higher among women, urban residents, high-deductible insurance beneficiaries, and those who were immunocompromised compared to immunocompetent. Among immunocompromised adults, RZV initiation was highest among those with HIV and primary immunodeficiencies. Of those who initiated RZV, 89.5% received both doses. RZV completion was highest among those who received the first dose at a pharmacy. Most enrollees (88.6%) who completed RZV vaccination did so within the recommended dosing schedule. Conclusions: RZV uptake was low in the two years since the CDC recommendation, and differed by demographic, healthcare access, and clinical characteristics. Initiation rates were higher among immunocompromised adults compared to immunocompetent adults, despite no CDC recommendation for vaccination in these groups during the study period. The CDC has since recommended RZV for immunocompromised individuals, and our findings may inform efforts to increase RZV uptake in individuals at higher risk of severe disease.

Introduction: Lockdown and the intimate

description: The lockdowns imposed upon cities, regions, and countries as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic are extraordinary state-sanctioned spatial interventions, both in terms of scale and scope. However, rather than a time-delimited event nor an exceptional circumstance of a temporary crisis, the pandemic lockdown was entangled with long-standing and on-going intimate and embodied histories of political violence, upheaval, militarization, displacement and dispossession. Be it as a result of war, terrorism, natural disaster, or pandemic – lockdown is more than an intervention in physical space and infrastructure alone. It is also an intervention that mobilizes, and often relies on, the sphere of the intimate along different and often unequal geographies of vulnerability. In this Theme Issue, we build on feminist geopolitics and feminist political geography to examine the intimacies of lockdown, seen through the experiences of refugees, migrants, low-income residents, as well as within the contexts of war and terrorism. Here, the politics of embodiment, domesticity and affectivity is central for understanding how lockdowns actively shape and are shaped by intimate geographies, thus advancing the theorization of the lockdown more broadly. The contributions to this Theme Issue gather around the following questions: how does the spatial politics of lockdown mobilize the sphere of the intimate? More broadly, how does the intimate help forge possibilities and places of counter-narratives of solidarity, shared vulnerabilities and care in contrast to renewed militarization, rising authoritarianism, violence, and the expanding spatialities of confinement in everyday life?

description: We numerically study active Brownian particles that can respond to environmental cues through a small set of actions (switching their motility and turning left or right with respect to some direction) which are motivated by recent experiments with colloidal self-propelled Janus particles. We employ reinforcement learning to find optimal mappings between the state of particles and these actions. Specifically, we first consider a predator-prey situation in which prey particles try to avoid a predator. Using as reward the squared distance from the predator, we discuss the merits of three state-action sets and show that turning away from the predator is the most successful strategy. We then remove the predator and employ as collective reward the local concentration of signaling molecules exuded by all particles and show that aligning with the concentration gradient leads to chemotactic collapse into a single cluster. Our results illustrate a promising route to obtain local interaction rules and design collective states in active matter.

Influence of interactions on particle production induced by time-varying mass terms

description: We have investigated effects of interaction terms on non-perturbative particle production. It is well known that time-varying masses induce abundant particle production. In this paper we have shown that it is possible to induce particle production even if the mass term of a particle species is not varying in time. Such particles are produced through the interactions with other fields, whose mass terms are varying due to a time-dependent background. The necessary formalism has been introduced and analytic and numerical calculations have been performed in a simple but illustrative model. The rather general result is that the amount of produced particles without time-dependent masses can be comparable with the particle density produced directly by the varying background if the strength of interaction terms is reasonably large.

description: We demonstrate the storage and retrieval of an on-demand single photon generated by a collective Rydberg excitation in an ultra-low noise Raman quantum memory located in a different cold atomic ensemble. We generate single photons on demand by exciting a cold cloud of Rubidium atoms off resonantly to a Rydberg state, with a generation probability up to 15 $\%$ per trial. We then show that the single photons can be stored and retrieved with an efficiency of 21 $\%$ and a noise floor of $p_n= 2.3(3) \times 10^{-4}$ per trial in the Raman quantum memory. This leads to a signal-to-noise ratio ranging from 11 to 26 for the retrieved single photon depending on the input photon generation probability, which allows us to observe significant antibunching. We also evaluate the performances of the Raman memory as built-in unbalanced temporal beam splitter, tunable by varying the write-in control pulse intensity. In addition, we demonstrate that the Raman memory can be used to control the single-photon waveshape. These results are a step forward in the implementation of efficient quantum-repeater links using single-photon sources.

description: Η κετογονική δίαιτα (KD), είναι μία δίαιτα υψηλής περιεκτικότητας σε λιπαρά και χαμηλής περιεκτικότητας σε υδατάνθρακες κα πρωτεΐνες που προκαλεί κέτωση. Το 1921 προτάθηκε για πρώτη φορά η χρήση της KD ως μία μακροπρόθεσμη επιλογή για τον έλεγχο της επιληψίας. Υπάρχουν πρόσφατες αναφορές για την αποτελεσματικότητα της KD και για άλλες παθήσεις όπως καποιες μορφές καρκίνου, παχυσαρκία , διαβήτη, κατάθλιψη και άλλες νευρολογικές παθήσεις. Συναντιέται σε τέσσερις διαφορετικές μορφές: την παραδοσιακή "κλασική" κετογονική δίαιτα (KD), την κετογονική δίαιτα μέσης αλυσίδας τριγλυκεριδίων (MCT), την τροποποιημένη δίαιτα Atkins (MAD) και την θεραπεία με χαμηλό γλυκαιμικό δείκτη (LGIT). Στην παρούσα μελέτη χρησιμοποιήθηκαν 28 αρσενικοί επίμυες, τύπου Wistar. Στους μισούς εξ αυτών έγινε πρόκληση κατάθλιψης μέσω της διαδικασίας του μαθημένου αβοήθητου. Επιπλέον, τα μισά από τα πειραματόζωα έλαβαν KD για χρονικό διάστημα 8 εβδομάδων προκειμένου να εκτιμηθεί η KD ως θεραπευτικό μέσο της κατάθλιψης και των διαταραχών άγχους και μνήμης με την χρήση συμπεριφορικών δοκιμασιών(elevated plus maze και elevated zero maze) ως δείκτες. Ταυτόχρονα, γινόταν ζύγιση των πειραματόζωων σε εβδομαδιαία βάση ενώ η παρακολούθηση των επιπέδων κατανάλωσης τροφής σε ημερήσια βάση. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν ότι τα πειραματόζωα που λάμβαναν KD ως τροφή είχαν μικρότερο βάρος όμως δεν υπήρξε στατιστικά σημαντική διαφορά μεταξύ της KD και της WESTERN DIET(WD) ως προς την πρόληψη και την καταπολέμηση της κατάθλιψης και των διαταραχών άγχους και μνήμης .
description: The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate, and adequate-protein diet that induces ketosis. In 1921, KD was first proposed as a long-term option for controlling epilepsy. Recent reports suggest the effectiveness of KD for other conditions such as certain forms of cancer, obesity, diabetes, depression, and other neurological disorders. It comes in four different forms: the traditional "classic" ketogenic diet (KD), medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) ketogenic diet, Modified Atkins Diet (MAD), and low glycemic index therapy (LGIT). In the present study, 28 male Wistar rats were used. Half of them underwent depression induction using the learned helplessness paradigm. Additionally, half of the experimental animals received KD for an 8-week period to assess KD as a therapeutic means for depression and anxiety and memory disorders using behavioral tests (elevated plus maze and elevated zero maze) as indices. Simultaneously, the animals were weighed weekly, and food consumption levels were monitored daily. The results showed that the animals on KD had lower body weight, but there was no statistically significant difference between KD and WD in terms of preventing and combating depression and anxiety and memory disorders.

description: Overdensity of galaxies at high-z are often suspected to be progenitors of local massive clusters, however the evolutionary path is still elusive. Here I report the discovery of six galaxy overdensities at redshift 2.4 to 5.3. This sample contains a massive four protocluster spectroscopically confirmed at z=2.4-3.61 by NOEMA, two galaxy groups at z~4 and 5.3 revealed by JWST. This sample has a wide range of total SFRs 100-5000 Msun/yr, and the halo masses span from 10^10 to 10^13 solar masses. The most massive structures in this sample show compact and starbursting cores that are likely already collapsed, and the formation of massive quiescent galaxies is already taking place in z>3 groups. We searched for compact groups in cosmological simulations and found they merged into single massive galaxies at z>2. The results suggest that the low-mass compact group at z=5.3 is in hierarchical clustering and on the way forming a massive galaxy by z=2, while the most massive structures in this sample are likely to evolve to clusters in the local Universe.

description: Existing deep clustering methods rely on either contrastive or non-contrastive representation learning for downstream clustering task. Contrastive-based methods thanks to negative pairs learn uniform representations for clustering, in which negative pairs, however, may inevitably lead to the class collision issue and consequently compromise the clustering performance. Non-contrastive-based methods, on the other hand, avoid class collision issue, but the resulting non-uniform representations may cause the collapse of clustering. To enjoy the strengths of both worlds, this paper presents a novel end-to-end deep clustering method with prototype scattering and positive sampling, termed ProPos. Specifically, we first maximize the distance between prototypical representations, named prototype scattering loss, which improves the uniformity of representations. Second, we align one augmented view of instance with the sampled neighbors of another view -- assumed to be truly positive pair in the embedding space -- to improve the within-cluster compactness, termed positive sampling alignment. The strengths of ProPos are avoidable class collision issue, uniform representations, well-separated clusters, and within-cluster compactness. By optimizing ProPos in an end-to-end expectation-maximization framework, extensive experimental results demonstrate that ProPos achieves competing performance on moderate-scale clustering benchmark datasets and establishes new state-of-the-art performance on large-scale datasets.

description: Background Around half the US population uses dietary supplements (DS), and concomitant use with medications is common. Many DS include bioactive substances that can interact with medications; therefore, accurate tracking is critical for patient safety. Unfortunately, documentation of patients’ DS use is often missing or incomplete in the electronic medical record (EMR), leaving patients susceptible to potential adverse events. Novel approaches to assist healthcare professionals (HCPs) in capturing patients’ DS use are needed. Objective To assess HCPs’ perspectives on challenges and facilitators of DS documentation in the EMR and their opinions on a proposed mHealth application (app) to aid in DS capture. Methods HCPs, recruited from professional networks, largely in North Carolina, using purposive sampling, took part in semi-structured interviews. We inquired about HCPs’ experiences with DS documentation in the EMR and their opinions about our proposed mHealth app. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and coded. Thematic analysis included deductive codes based on the interview guide, and inductive codes that emerged during transcript review. Results HCPs (N = 30) included 60% females, mean age 46 ± 10; 70% White. Pharmacists (20%), nurses (17%), and physicians (17%) were the most represented professions. Years in practice ranged from 3–35 years. Most HCPs were concerned about DS safety and potential supplement-drug interactions, and cited several barriers to accurate EMR DS documentation including time constraints, database inconsistencies, and poor patient-HCP communication about DS. HCPs’ views on our proposed mHealth app were generally positive. They expressed that our proposed mHealth app could streamline documentation processes and enhance patient-provider communication. HCPs expressed desire for a high-quality mHealth app that includes access to evidence-based DS information, integrates with the EMR, and does not increase time burdens. Conclusion HCPs believe documentation of patients’ DS use is important but not accurately captured in the EMR. Support was expressed for our proposed barcode-scanning DS mHealth app.

description: We introduce the Study variety of conformal kinematics and investigate some of its properties. The Study variety is a projective variety of dimension ten and degree twelve in real projective space of dimension 15, and it generalizes the well-known Study quadric model of rigid body kinematics. Despite its high dimension, co-dimension, and degree it is amenable to concrete calculations via conformal geometric algebra (CGA) associated to three-dimensional Euclidean space. Calculations are facilitated by a four quaternion representation which extends the dual quaternion description of rigid body kinematics. In particular, we study straight lines on the Study variety. It turns out that they are related to a class of one-parametric conformal motions introduced by L. Dorst in 2016. Similar to rigid body kinematics, straight lines (that is, Dorst's motions) are important for the decomposition of rational conformal motions into lower degree motions via the factorization of certain polynomials with coefficients in CGA.

description: Purpose Evidence suggests differential impacts of community development, including gentrification and displacement. Public health practitioners and advocates are key stakeholders involved in the community development process related to active living, yet little is known about their perceptions of its impacts. We explored the perspectives of relevant leaders of public health departments and key community and advocacy organizations on community development, gentrification, and displacement. Approach Purposive key informant interviews. Setting CDC State Physical Activity and Nutrition (SPAN) funding recipients. Participants CDC SPAN recipient leadership (n = 10 of 16) and advocacy organizations they partnered with (n = 7 of 16). Method Interviews were recorded, transcribed, coded, and thematically analyzed with direct quotes representing key themes. Results Both groups felt community development held important benefits, specifically by creating healthy living opportunities, but also potentially leading to the displacement of long-time residents. Practitioners reported the benefits were for all community members, whereas advocates noted the benefits were seen in those with privilege, and the consequences were disproportionately seen in disadvantaged communities. Both mentioned the importance and difficulty of getting diverse representation for community engagement. Conclusions Learning how key stakeholders perceive and navigate the community development process can help inform recommendations for better equity in active living community improvements. More work is needed to further elucidate best practices for health and social equity in the community development process.

description: In this present study, the pseudopotential plane-wave (PP-PW) pathway in the scheme of density functional theory (DFT) is utilized to investigate the various physical properties on (Ba0.82K0.18)(Bi0.53Pb0.47)O3 (BKBPO) single perovskite superconductor. We have analyzed elastic constants and moduli at zero and elevated pressures (up to 25 GPa) as well. We also have investigated the anisotropic nature incorporating both the theoretical indices and graphical representations in 2D and 3D dimensions, which reveals a high level of anisotropy. The flatness of the energy bands near EF is a sign of Van-Hf singularity that might increase the electron pairing and origination of high-TC superconductivity. The computed band structure exhibits its metallic characteristics is confirmed by band overlapping. A band of DOS is formed for the strong hybridization of the constituent elements. The orbital electrons of O-2p contribute most dominantly at EF in contrast to all orbital electrons. The orbital electrons at the EF are higher from both the partial density of states and charge density mapping investigation. The coexistence of the electron and hole-like Fermi sheets exhibits the multi-band nature of BKBPO. On the other hand, Fermi surfaces with flat faces promote transport features and Fermi surface nesting as well. The calculated value of the electron-phonon coupling constant (λ = 1.46) is slightly lower than the isostructural superconductor, which indicates that the studied BKBPO can be treated as a strongly coupled superconductor similar to the reported isostructural perovskite superconductors. Furthermore, the thermodynamic properties have been evaluated and analyzed at elevated temperature and pressure by using harmonic Debye approximation (QHDA).

description: In this paper, we introduce plane permutations, i.e. pairs $\mathfrak{p}=(s,π)$ where $s$ is an $n$-cycle and $π$ is an arbitrary permutation, represented as a two-row array. Accordingly a plane permutation gives rise to three distinct permutations: the permutation induced by the upper horizontal ($s$), the vertical $π$) and the diagonal ($D_{\mathfrak{p}}$) of the array. The latter can also be viewed as the three permutations of a hypermap. In particular, a map corresponds to a plane permutation, in which the diagonal is a fixed point-free involution. We study the transposition action on plane permutations obtained by permuting their diagonal-blocks. We establish basic properties of plane permutations and study transpositions and exceedances and derive various enumerative results. In particular, we prove a recurrence for the number of plane permutations having a fixed diagonal and $k$ cycles in the vertical, generalizing Chapuy's recursion for maps filtered by the genus. As applications of this framework, we present a combinatorial proof of a result of Zagier and Stanley, on the number of $n$-cycles $ω$, for which the product $ω(1~2~\cdots ~n)$ has exactly $k$ cycles. Furthermore, we integrate studies on the transposition and block-interchange distance of permutations as well as the reversal distance of signed permutations. Plane permutations allow us to generalize and recover various lower bounds for transposition and block-interchange distances and to connect reversals with block-interchanges.

description: The renormalization group in effective quantum gravity can be consistently formulated using the Vilkovisky and DeWitt version of effective action and assuming a non-zero cosmological constant. Taking into account that the vacuum counterpart of the cosmological constant is dramatically different from the observed energy density of vacuum, the running of the last quantity in the late cosmology indicates strong constraints on the physics beyond the minimal Standard Model of particle physics.

description: Solving high-dimensional random parametric PDEs poses a challenging computational problem. It is well-known that numerical methods can greatly benefit from adaptive refinement algorithms, in particular when functional approximations in polynomials are computed as in stochastic Galerkin and stochastic collocations methods. This work investigates a residual based adaptive algorithm used to approximate the solution of the stationary diffusion equation with lognormal coefficients. It is known that the refinement procedure is reliable, but the theoretical convergence of the scheme for this class of unbounded coefficients remains a challenging open question. This paper advances the theoretical results by providing a quasi-error reduction results for the adaptive solution of the lognormal stationary diffusion problem. A computational example supports the theoretical statement.

description: Purpose We sought to describe the prevalence of food insecurity and its relationship with mental health, health care access, and use among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adults in the U.S. Design and Setting We analyzed data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), a cross-sectional study of noninstitutionalized adults from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Sample The study sample was restricted to LGB adults ≥18 years (N = 1178) from the 2021 NHIS survey. Measures Food security was assessed using the 10-item U.S Adult Food Security Survey Module. Study outcomes were mental health (depression, anxiety, life satisfaction, and serious psychological distress), health care utilization, and medication adherence. Analysis Descriptive statistics and linear and generalized linear regressions. Results The study sample consisted of 69% White, 14% Hispanic/Latinx, 9% Black, and 8% people of other races. Approximately half (53%) identified as bisexual and 47% identified as gay or lesbian. Eleven percent were food insecure. Sexual orientation, income-to-poverty ratio, and health insurance were significant correlates of food insecurity. In multivariable analyses, food insecurity was significantly associated with mental illness (including depression, anxiety, and serious psychological distress), limited health care access and use (including inability to pay medical bills, delay in getting medical and mental health care, and going without needed medical and mental health care), and medication nonadherence (including skipping medication, taking less medication, delay filling prescription, and going without needed prescription). Conclusion Food insecurity is a constant predictor of adverse mental health and low medical and mental health care use rates among LGB adults in the United States. Achieving food security in LGB people requires improving their financial and nonfinancial resources to obtain food.

description: Deep learning models have been widely used for anomaly detection in surveillance videos. Typical models are equipped with the capability to reconstruct normal videos and evaluate the reconstruction errors on anomalous videos to indicate the extent of abnormalities. However, existing approaches suffer from two disadvantages. Firstly, they can only encode the movements of each identity independently, without considering the interactions among identities which may also indicate anomalies. Secondly, they leverage inflexible models whose structures are fixed under different scenes, this configuration disables the understanding of scenes. In this paper, we propose a Hierarchical Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Neural Network (HSTGCNN) to address these problems, the HSTGCNN is composed of multiple branches that correspond to different levels of graph representations. High-level graph representations encode the trajectories of people and the interactions among multiple identities while low-level graph representations encode the local body postures of each person. Furthermore, we propose to weightedly combine multiple branches that are better at different scenes. An improvement over single-level graph representations is achieved in this way. An understanding of scenes is achieved and serves anomaly detection. High-level graph representations are assigned higher weights to encode moving speed and directions of people in low-resolution videos while low-level graph representations are assigned higher weights to encode human skeletons in high-resolution videos. Experimental results show that the proposed HSTGCNN significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art models on four benchmark datasets (UCSD Pedestrian, ShanghaiTech, CUHK Avenue and IITB-Corridor) by using much less learnable parameters.

description: We consider a Gaussian Beam (GB) resonant system for high frequency gravitational waves (HFGWs) detection. At present, we find the optimal signal strength in theory through setting the magnetic component of GB in a standard gaussian form. Under the synchro-resonance condition, we study the signal strength (i.e., transverse perturbative photon fluxes) from the relic HFGWs (predicted by ordinary inflationary model) and the braneworld HFGWs (from braneworld scenarios). Both of them would generate potentially detectable transverse perturbative photon fluxes (PPFs). Furthermore we find optimal system parameters and the relationship between frequency and effective width of energy fluxes accumulation.
