description: This study aimed to evaluate VHP as a decontamination method for decontaminating reusable PAPR; determine if PAPR is compatible with VHP; and determine how long it takes for hydrogen peroxide to off-gas for the mask to be safe for reuse. Off-gassing validation study which consisted of doing three VHP decontamination processes followed by three Off-Gassing Tests to confirm the efficacy of the VHP cycle and time required for the VHP concentration to reach 0 ppm. HALT, which consisted of exposing the PAPR to 50 VHP decontamination cycles followed by a Visual Appearance Test to determine if the VHP process impacted the PAPR material’s visual properties. The results from this study show that VHP is an effective and repeatable process for decontaminating PAPR, and the Off-Gassing Test shows that with the appropriate off-gassing set up, it is possible to off-gas one PAPR within 8 hours of completing the decontamination cycle. The results from the Visual Appearance Test show that exposing a PAPR to 50 decontamination cycles does not present significant changes in the PAPR material’s colour, opacity, or overall visual appearance.

description: Delta Scuti stars are variable stars that with the ultra precise data from spacial satellites like TESS and Kepler have experimented a skyrocketing improvement in their spectra analysis. Special importance for Asteroseismology analysis have the non-linearities that could be observed in their power spectrum, not yet thoroughly studied, because they could explain some of the unsolved enigmas about the phenomenology of these stars. In this poster, we will be analyzing the nonlinearities of these stars with the aim of solving numerically the non-lineal differential equations that describe their pulsations.

description: Sialylated glycans serve as cell surface attachment factors for a broad range of pathogens. We report an atypical example, where desialylation increases cell surface binding and infectivity of adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype 9, a human parvovirus isolate. Enzymatic removal of sialic acid, but not heparan sulfate or chondroitin sulfate, increased AAV9 transduction regardless of cell type. Viral binding and transduction assays on mutant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines defective in various stages of glycan chain synthesis revealed a potential role for core glycan residues under sialic acid in AAV9 transduction. Treatment with chemical inhibitors of glycosylation and competitive inhibition studies with different lectins suggest that N-linked glycans with terminal galactosyl residues facilitate cell surface binding and transduction by AAV9. In corollary, resialylation of galactosylated glycans on the sialic acid-deficient CHO Lec2 cell line with different sialyltransferases partially blocked AAV9 transduction. Quantitative analysis of AAV9 binding to parental, sialidase-treated or sialic acid-deficient mutant CHO cells revealed a 3-15-fold increase in relative binding potential of AAV9 particles upon desialylation. Finally, pretreatment of well differentiated human airway epithelial cultures and intranasal instillation of recombinant sialidase in murine airways enhanced transduction efficiency of AAV9 by > 1 order of magnitude. Taken together, the studies described herein provide a molecular basis for low infectivity of AAV9 in vitro and a biochemical strategy to enhance gene transfer by AAV9 vectors in general.

description: For almost two decades, it has been postulated that calcium-activated Cl- channels (CaCCs) play a role in airway epithelial Cl- secretion, but until recently, the molecular identity of the airway CaCC(s) was unknown. Recent studies have unequivocally identified TMEM16A as a glandular epithelial CaCC. We have studied the airway bioelectrics of neonatal mice homozygous for a null allele of Tmem16a (Tmem16a-/ -) to investigate the role of this channel in Cl- secretion in airway surface epithelium. When compared with wild-type tracheas, the Tmem16a-/- tracheas exhibited a >60% reduction in purinoceptor (UTP)-regulated CaCC activity. Other members of the Tmem16 gene family,including Tmem16f and Tmem16k, were also detected by reverse transcription-PCR in neonatal tracheal epithelium, suggesting that other family members could be considered as contributing to the small residual UTP response. TMEM16A, however, appeared to contribute little to unstimulated Cl- secretion, whereas studies with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-deficient mice and wild-type littermates revealed that unstimulated Cl- secretion reflected ∼50% CFTR activity and ∼50% non-Tmem16a activity. Interestingly, the tracheas of both the Tmem16a-/- and the CFTR-/- mice exhibited similar congenital cartilaginous defects that may reflect a common Cl- secretory defect mediated by the molecularly distinct Cl- channels. Importantly, the residual CaCC activity in Tmem16a-/- mice appeared inadequate for normal airway hydration because Tmem16a-/- tracheas exhibited significant, neonatal, lumenal mucus accumulation. Our data suggest that TMEM16A CaCC-mediated Cl- secretion appears to be necessary for normal airway surface liquid homeostasis.

description: Alan G. MacDiarmid was an inorganic chemist by training who pioneered the field of synthetic metals. He grew up in a family that lived frugally, and he had to work in the Chemistry Department of the Victoria University of Wellington as a laboratory assistant before he could undertake part-time degree studies. He was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to the University of Wisconsin, where he completed his first PhD with Norris Hall. The desire to receive a higher degree in the UK led to a Shell Scholarship to complete a second doctorate with Harry Emeléus FRS. After a sojourn at the University of St Andrews, Alan MacDiarmid was appointed to an academic position at the University of Pennsylvania, where he remained essentially for his whole career. His early research was based on the properties of silicon hydrides, but he also became interested in poly(sulfur nitride). This led to a search in collaboration with Alan J. Heeger for intrinsically conducting non-metallic materials. A chance meeting with Hideki Shirakawa at the University of Tokyo led to MacDiarmid being shown thin metallic-like films of poly(acetylene) made in Shirakawa's laboratory. Shirakawa travelled to Philadelphia to collaborate with MacDiarmid and Heeger on the halogen ‘doping’ of poly(acetylene), which led to the discovery that the doped material was an excellent conductor. Thus, the field of synthetic metals was born. This paradigm-shifting work in which a polymer was shown to be a conductor led to the award of the 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to these three individuals. MacDiarmid went on to study in great detail the properties of polyaniline; the fact that it could be processed from solution and further modified by oxidative and protonic doping led to all sorts of potentially interesting opportunities in optoelectronics. From all this research, the modern field of organic electronic materials emerged as an important disruptive technology whose advancement depended on an entirely new branch of interdisciplinary science.

description: Rationale: Modulation of the activity of sarcoendoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) can profoundly affect Ca2+ homeostasis. Although altered calcium homeostasis is a characteristic of cystic fibrosis (CF), the role of SERCA is unknown. Objectives: This study provides a comprehensive investigation of expression and activity of SERCA in CF airway epithelium. A detailed study of the mechanisms underlying SERCA changes and its consequences was also undertaken. Methods: Lung tissue samples (bronchus and bronchiole) from subjects with and without CF were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Protein and mRNA expression in primary non-CF and CF cells was determined by Western and Northern blots. Measurements and Main Results: SERCA2 expression was decreased in bronchial and bronchiolar epithelia of subjects with CF. SERCA2 expression in lysates of polarized tracheobronchial epithelial cells from subjects with CF was decreased by 67% as compared with those from subjects without CF. Several non-CF and CF airway epithelial cell lines were also probed. SERCA2 expression and activity were consistently decreased in CF cell lines. Adenoviral expression of mutant F508 cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene (CFTR), inhibition of CFTR function pharmacologically (CFTRinh172), or stable expression of antisense oligonucleotides to inhibit CFTR expression caused decreased SERCA2 expression. In CF cells, SERCA2 interacted with Bcl-2, leading to its displacement from caveolae-related domains of endoplasmic reticulum membranes, as demonstrated in sucrose density gradient centrifugation and immunoprecipitation studies. Knockdown of SERCA2 using siRNA enhanced epithelial cell death due to ozone, hydrogen peroxide, and TNF-α. Conclusions: Reduced SERCA2 expression may alter calcium signaling and apoptosis in CF. These findings decrease the likelihood of therapeutic benefit of SERCA inhibition in CF.

description: Real-time controls based on quantum measurements are powerful tools for various quantum protocols. However, their experimental realization have been limited by mode-mismatch between temporal mode of quadrature measurement and that heralded by photon detection. Here, we demonstrate real-time quadrature measurement of a single-photon wavepacket induced by a photon detection, by utilizing continuous temporal-mode-matching between homodyne detection and an exponentially rising temporal mode. Single photons in exponentially rising modes are also expected to be useful resources for interactions with other quantum systems.

description: The adult human bronchial tree is covered with a continuous layer of epithelial cells that play a critical role in maintaining the conduit for air, and which are central to the defenses of the lung against inhaled environmental concomitants. The epithelial sheet functions as an interdependent unit with the other lung components. Importantly, the structure and/or function of airway epithelium is deranged in major lung disorders, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and bronchogenic carcinoma. Investigations regarding the airway epithelium have led to many advances over the past few decades, but new developments in genetics and stem cell/ progenitor cell biology have opened the door to understanding how the airway epithelium is developed and maintained, and how it responds to environmental stress. This article provides an overview of the current state of knowledge regarding airway epithelial stem/ progenitor cells, gene expression, cell-cell interactions, and less frequent cell types, and discusses the challenges for future areas of investigation regarding the airway epitheliumin health and disease.

description: Currently, there is great enthusiasm about potential stem cell therapies for intractable diseases. We previously reviewed the topic of stem cells in lung injury and repair, including the role of endogenous, tissue (somatic) stem cells and the contribution of circulating cells to the lung parenchyma. Our purpose here is to provide a concise update in this fast-moving field. New information and ongoing debate focus attention on basic issues in lung stem cell biology and highlight the need for additional studies to establish the feasibility of cell therapies to prevent or treat lung diseases.

description: Computations related to learning processes within an organizational social network area require some network model preparation and specific algorithms in order to implement human behaviors in simulated environments. The proposals in this research model of collaborative learning in an organizational social network are based on knowledge resource distribution through the establishment of a knowledge flow. The nodes, which represent knowledge workers, contain information about workers social and cognitive abilities. Moreover, the workers are described by their set of competences, their skill level, and the collaborative learning behavior that can be detected through knowledge flow analysis. The proposed approach assumes that an increase in workers competence is a result of collaborative learning. In other words, collaborative learning can be analyzed as a process of knowledge flow that is being broadcast in a network. In order to create a more effective organizational social network for co-learning, the authors found the best strategies for knowledge facilitator, knowledge collector, and expert roles allocation. Special attention is paid to the process of knowledge flow in the community of practice. Acceleration within the community of practice happens when knowledge flows more effectively between community members. The presented procedure makes it possible to add new ties to the community of practice in order to influence community members competences. Both the proposed allocation and acceleration approaches were confirmed through simulations.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: A search for neutral Higgs bosons decaying into a b-bbar quark pair and produced in association with at least one additional b quark is presented. This signature is sensitive to the Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with large values of the parameter tan(beta). The analysis is based on data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 inverse femtobarns. The results are combined with a previous analysis based on 7 TeV data. No signal is observed. Stringent upper limits on the cross section times branching fraction are derived for Higgs bosons with masses up to 900 GeV, and the results are interpreted within different MSSM benchmark scenarios, m[h,max], m[h,mod+], m[h,mod-], light-stau and light-stop. Observed 95% confidence level upper limits on tan(beta), ranging from 14 to 50, are obtained in the m[h,mod+] benchmark scenario.

description: The Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) are six clusters of galaxies, all showing indications of recent mergers, which have recently been observed for lensed images. As such they are the natural laboratories to study the merging history of galaxy clusters. In this work, we explore the 2D power spectrum of the mass distribution $P_{\rm M}(k)$ as a measure of substructure. We compare $P_{\rm M}(k)$ of these clusters (obtained using strong gravitational lensing) to that of $Λ$CDM simulated clusters of similar mass. To compute lensing $P_{\rm M}(k)$, we produced free-form lensing mass reconstructions of HFF clusters, without any light traces mass (LTM) assumption. The inferred power at small scales tends to be larger if (i)~the cluster is at lower redshift, and/or (ii)~there are deeper observations and hence more lensed images. In contrast, lens reconstructions assuming LTM show higher power at small scales even with fewer lensed images; it appears the small scale power in the LTM reconstructions is dominated by light information, rather than the lensing data. The average lensing derived $P_{\rm M}(k)$ shows lower power at small scales as compared to that of simulated clusters at redshift zero, both dark-matter only and hydrodynamical. The possible reasons are: (i)~the available strong lensing data are limited in their effective spatial resolution on the mass distribution, (ii)~HFF clusters have yet to build the small scale power they would have at $z\sim 0$, or (iii)~simulations are somehow overestimating the small scale power.

description: Mucus protects, moisturizes, and lubricates mucosal surfaces. A child swirling mucus on his or her tongue has performed an experiment on its biophysical properties and is likely to be equally aware of the potential for dramatic increases in mucus, as with the common cold. However, too much of a good thing may be bad, and mucus hypersecretion may contribute to the pathophysiology of asthma, chronic bronchitis, and cystic fibrosis, as well as sinusitis and otitis media. Copious, hyperviscous mucus may directly obstruct airflow or impair mucociliary clearance. Stagnant mucus likely serves as both a nidus for bacterial colonization and perpetuates chronic infection.

description: We present a description of the measurement process based on the parametric representation with environmental coherent states. This representation is specifically tailored for studying quantum systems whose environment needs being considered through the quantum-to-classical cross-over. Focusing upon projective measures, and exploiting the connection between large-$N$ quantum theories and the classical limit of related ones, we manage to push our description beyond the pre-measurement step. This allows us to show that the outcome production follows from a global-symmetry breaking, entailing the observed system's state reduction, and that the statistical nature of the process is brought about, together with the Born's rule, by the macroscopic character of the measuring apparatus.

description: It is generally important to elucidate airway epithelial cell lineages and to identify multipotent progenitors as targets for gene therapy. Stem (S) cells are typically present in specialized compartments spatially proximal to their differentiated progeny, but an equivalent paradigm has not been demonstrated in the airway. We discovered a distinct population of cells displaying high levels of keratin expression in murine tracheal submucosal gland ducts, and tested the hypothesis that bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) label - retaining cells (LRCs), thought to represent the S-cells, were present in this compartment. Mice received weekly epithelial damage by intratracheal detergent or SO2 inhalation for 4 wk and received intraperitoneal injections of BrdU every 48 h during the injury and repair period. At 3 and 6 d after injury, BrdU-positive epithelial cells were noted along the entire tracheal length in both basal and lumenal cell positions. At later time points (20 and 95 d) LRCs were localized to gland ducts in the upper trachea and to systematically arrayed foci in the lower trachea, typically near the cartilage-intercartilage junction. LRCs were not pulmonary neuroendocrine cells. Heterotopic tracheal grafts after surface epithelial removal demonstrated reconstitution of a surface-like epithelium from gland remnants. These results suggest that airway epithelial S cells are localized to specific niches.

description: Unlike the Wilson line in QED the Wilson line in QCD contains path ordering. In this paper we get rid of the path ordering in the light-like Wilson line in QCD by simplifying all the infinite number of non-commuting terms in the SU(3) pure gauge. We prove that the light-like Wilson line in QCD naturally emerges when path integral formulation of QCD is used to prove factorization of soft and collinear divergences at all order in coupling constant in QCD processes at high energy colliders.

Open Access Mega Journals: The Case Study of Characteristics and Performance of Eight International Mega Journals
Publisher: name: Iranian Research Institute for Information Science and Technology (IranDoc)
Year: 2019

description: Open access mega journals represent an increasingly important part of the scholarly communications. The current research aims to introduce eight international mega journals and to investigate their performance in a five-year time span (2012-2016).\nThe current study is an applied research in terms of objectives while it is a descriptive study in terms of data analysis and conducted using scientometric indicators. Research population comprised of 195011 articles published in eight mega journals during 2012-2016 and indexed by the Web of Science. Data was collected using three products of the Clarivate Analytics, namely Web of Science, Journal Citation Reports as well as InCites. Data analysis was conducted using Microsoft Excel.\nResults of the study showed 101% growth in 2016 compared to 2012 with regard to publications in eight studied mega journals. A total of 195011 articles have been published in eight mega journals during 2012-2016. Considering article processing fees of each journal, we can assume that roughly 300 million USD has been charged by eight mega journals. Papers published in mega journals were found to have higher citation impact compared with the average of the Web of Science database. Results revealed that two mega journals, namely PLoS One and Scientific Reports, were accountable for 91.6% of total publications and 96.1% of total citations. The highest share of publications in eight mega journals was found to be in the following research categories: Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, Multidisciplinary Sciences, Neurosciences, Oncology and Immunology. Moreover, the US, China, the UK, Germany and Japan had the highest number of publications in eight studied mega journals.\nReputable publishers have identified a market demand for publication of scholarly output and are offering their services using open access mega journals. The mega journal market seems likely to keep increasing in the future.

description: The induction of host antimicrobial molecules following binding of pathogen components to pattern recognition receptors such as CD14 and the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) is a key feature of innate immunity. The human airway epithelium is an important environmental interface, but LPS recognition pathways have not been determined. We hypothesized that LPS would trigger β-defensin (hBD2) mRNA in human tracheobronchial epithelial (hTBE) cells through a CD14-dependent mechanism, ultimately activating NF-κB. An average 3-fold increase in hBD2 mRNA occurs 24 h after LPS challenge of hTBE cells. For the first time, we demonstrate the presence of CD14 mRNA and cell surface protein in hTBE cells and show that CD14 neutralization abolishes LPS induction of hBD2 mRNA. Furthermore, we demonstrate TLR mRNA in hTBE cells and NF-κB activation following LPS. Thus, LPS induction of hBD2 in hTBE cells requires CD14, which may complex with a TLR to ultimately activate NF-κB.

Vortical Motions of Baryonic Gas in the Cosmic Web: Growth History and Scaling Relation

description: The vortical motions of the baryonic gas residing in large scale structures are investigated by cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. Proceeding in the formation of the cosmic web, the vortical motions of baryonic matter are pumped up by baroclinity in two stages, i.e., the formation of sheets, and filaments. The mean curl velocity are about $< 1$, 1-10, 10-150, 5-50 km/s in voids, sheets, filaments and knots at $z=0$, respectively. The scaling of the vortical velocity of gas can be well described by the She-Leveque hierarchical turbulence model in the range of $l<0.65(1.50) h^{-1}$ Mpc in simulation of box size 25(100) $h^{-1}$ Mpc. The fractal Hausdorff dimension of vortical motions, $d$, revealed by velocity structure functions, is $\sim 2.1-2.3$($\sim 1.8-2.1$). It is slightly larger than the fractal dimension of mass distribution in filaments, $\textit{D}^f \sim 1.9-2.2$, and smaller than the fractal dimension of sheets, $\textit{D}^s \sim 2.4-2.7$. The vortical kinetic energy of baryonic gas is mainly transported by filaments. Both the scaling of mass distribution and vortical velocity increments show distinctive transition at the turning scale of $\sim 0.65(1.50) h^{-1}$ Mpc, which may be closely related to the characteristic radius of density filaments.

description: Mucus hypersecretion is characteristic of chronic airway diseases. However, regulatory mechanisms are poorly understood. Human airway epithelial cells grown on permeable supports at the air-liquid interface (ALI) develop a mucociliary morphology resembling that found in vivo. Such cultures provide a model for studying secretory cell lineage, differentiation, and function, and may provide insight regarding events leading to mucus hypersecretion. The mucin gene expression profile of well-differentiated human airway epithelial cells in culture has not yet been established. We compared expression of all the currently described mucin genes in poorly differentiated (conventional cultures on plastic) and well-differentiated (ALI) human nasal and bronchial epithelial cells. Differentiation-dependent upregulation of MUC3, MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC6 messenger RNA (mRNA) was demonstrated using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Northern blot analysis showed a similar increase for MUC4 and demonstrated that induction of MUC4 and MUC5B expression depended on retinoic acid. MUC1, MUC2, MUC7, and MUC8 mRNAs were also detected by RT-PCR, but these genes did not appear to be strongly regulated as a function of differentiation. Mucin gene expression was similar in bronchial and nasal cells. Thus, mucociliary differentiation of human airway epithelia in vitro entails upregulation of several mucin genes.

Visualization of Information Retrieval Process in the Theses Section of Academic Libraries: a Proposed Model
Publisher: name: Iranian Research Institute for Information Science and Technology (IranDoc)
Year: 2019

description: Information visualization is an ongoing research field for exploring and delivering new insight on large amount of data in Information Retrieval (IR) community. The current study aimed to map and visualize the information of dissertations by considering the important role of dissertations in academic libraries. To achieve this aim a subject–title portrait was designed for presenting the interactive graphic view of dissertations’ subjects in libraries. The IR-system was designed by information visualization toolkits that presented the related subjects of dissertations in the library. In addition a standard questionnaire (QUIS Questionnaire) was administered among users for measuring their satisfaction levels. The designed IR system provided a user-friendly environment through displaying subjective relations of dissertations, overwhelming variety of colors in displaying information. Fast and easy access to cover-to-cover information of dissertations and user-interaction facilities were the advantages of designed IR. Analysis of data indicated that the user satisfaction from altered features was evaluated from medium to high. Satisfaction from software features showed the highest rate (69.3%±0.47%). Designing IR-system revealed an excessive influence on users’ satisfaction. Therefore, such systems for employing in academic libraries are very suitable and its implementation is necessary.

description: Quantum teleportation, which depends on entangled states, is a fascinating subject and an important branch of quantum information processing. The present work reports the use of a dipolar spin thermal system as a quantum channel to perform quantum teleportation. Non-locality, tested by violation of Bell's inequality and thermal entanglement, measured by negativity, unquestionably show that even entangled states that do not violate Bell's inequality can be useful for teleportation.
