Stent-Assisted Coil Embolization of a Wide-Neck Aneurysm at the Vertebral Artery Terminus Using a Contralateral Approach: A Technical Report
Creators: name: Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institutes
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Background—Aneurysms of the vertebrobasilar junction (VBJ) are especially uncommon but carry a significant risk of hemorrhage and historically have been difficult to treat. In recent years, however, advancements in stent-assisted embolization have allowed better access and stabilization of complicated posterior circulation aneurysms. Methods—We describe a novel approach in the treatment of a wide-neck aneurysm at the terminus of the left vertebral artery by a contralateral approach in a patient with ipsilateral subclavian artery occlusion. Results—A complex, wide-neck aneurysm at the verterbrobasilar junction hindered by ipsilateral subclavian occlusion can successfully be treated with stent-assisted coil embolization using a contralateral approach. Conclusion—Contralateral U-shaped stenting offers a viable endovascular option for patients with complex aneurysms of the vertebral basilar junction but should be reserved for appropriate cases with favorable anatomy when the ipsilateral approach from the subclavian artery is unobtainable.
Advances in Feature Selection with Mutual Information

description: The selection of features that are relevant for a prediction or classification problem is an important problem in many domains involving high-dimensional data. Selecting features helps fighting the curse of dimensionality, improving the performances of prediction or classification methods, and interpreting the application. In a nonlinear context, the mutual information is widely used as relevance criterion for features and sets of features. Nevertheless, it suffers from at least three major limitations: mutual information estimators depend on smoothing parameters, there is no theoretically justified stopping criterion in the feature selection greedy procedure, and the estimation itself suffers from the curse of dimensionality. This chapter shows how to deal with these problems. The two first ones are addressed by using resampling techniques that provide a statistical basis to select the estimator parameters and to stop the search procedure. The third one is addressed by modifying the mutual information criterion into a measure of how features are complementary (and not only informative) for the problem at hand.
Toward A Coherent Treatment of Negative Numbers

Publisher: name: Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College
Year: 2013

description: The transition from whole numbers to integers involves challenges for both students and teachers. Leadership in mathematics education calls for an ability to translate depth of understanding into effective teaching methods, and this landscape includes alternative treatments of familiar topics. Noting the multiple meanings associated with the horizontal bar that is often referred to as “minus sign,” the authors introduce a novel notation intended to address this ambiguity. In this system, the symbol “−” is reserved exclusively for subtraction. The four arithmetic operations and the concept of a number's opposite are then illustrated in light of such a notational shift. A valuable aspect of this excursion is that it encourages teachers to reflect on the relationship between some important mathematics and the pedagogical approaches they now use.

description: Let G be a finite group. A subgroup M of G is said to be an NR-subgroup if, whenever K is normal in M, then K^G\cap M=K, where K^G is the normal closure of K in G. Using the Classification of Finite Simple Groups, we prove that if every maximal subgroup of G is an NR -subgroup then G is solvable. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture posed in Berkovich (Houston J Math 24:631-638, 1998).

description: The implementation of the Common Core Standards for Mathematics and the assessments of those concepts, skills, reasoning methods, and mathematical practices that are in development necessitate the updating of teachers’ knowledge of content, pedagogical techniques to enhance engagement and persistence, and strategies for responding to the needs and talents of students. Following a brief history of the role of supervisors, the key responsibilities of current supervisors are described and include strategies for: establishing a framework for instruction, collaborating with other content curriculum supervisors to explore ways to enhance key concept acquisition in two or more fields, identifying students’ academic needs and monitoring their progress, designing and conducting ongoing PD programs, closing learning gaps, and celebrating achievements of both students and teachers. The chapter concludes with an identification of the qualifications and characteristics of effective supervisors of mathematics.

AGN's UV and X-ray luminosities in clumpy accretion flows

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We consider the fuelling of the central massive black hole in Active Galactic Nuclei, through an inhomogeneous accretion flow. Performing simple analytical treatments, we show that shocks between elements (clumps) forming the accretion flow may account for the UV and X-ray emission in AGNs. In this picture, a cascade of shocks is expected, where optically thick shocks give rise to optical/UV emission, while optically thin shocks give rise to X-ray emission. The resulting blue bump temperature is found to be quite similar in different AGNs. We obtain that the ratio of X-ray luminosity to UV luminosity is smaller than unity, and that this ratio is smaller in massive objects compared to less massive sources. This is in agreement with the observed $L_{X}/L_{UV}$ ratio and suggests a possible interpretation of the $α_{OX}-l_{UV}$ anticorrelation.

Geometrical families of mechanically stable granular packings

description: We enumerate and classify nearly all of the possible mechanically stable (MS) packings of bidipserse mixtures of frictionless disks in small sheared systems. We find that MS packings form continuous geometrical families, where each family is defined by its particular network of particle contacts. We also monitor the dynamics of MS packings along geometrical families by applying quasistatic simple shear strain at zero pressure. For small numbers of particles (N < 16), we find that the dynamics is deterministic and highly contracting. That is, if the system is initialized in a MS packing at a given shear strain, it will quickly lock into a periodic orbit at subsequent shear strain, and therefore sample only a very small fraction of the possible MS packings in steady state. In studies with N>16, we observe an increase in the period and random splittings of the trajectories caused by bifurcations in configuration space. We argue that the ratio of the splitting and contraction rates in large systems will determine the distribution of MS-packing geometrical families visited in steady-state. This work is part of our long-term research program to develop a master-equation formalism to describe macroscopic slowly driven granular systems in terms of collections of small subsystems.

description: Guidelines for annotating epilepsy clinic letters to create annotation sets used for the development and testing of clinical NLP applications.

The guidelines detail entities and features (attributes) to be annotated. Numerous examples of correct annotations and possible errors are provided with each annotation type (entity). Entities discussed include Diagnosis (epilepsy, seizure types), Birth History (premature birth,  perinatal injuries), Epilepsy cause, Onset (age, time since, date), Investigations (EEG, MRI, CT), Patient History (comorbidities and major events affecting health),  Prescriptions, Seizure Frequency (number of seizures with temporal concepts), and When Diagnosed (age, time since, date). Lists of terms relating to entities and features are provided to aid in the annotation process. The guidelines were   developed  to be used with Markup (https://getmarkup.com/ )but should be suitable for other applications.

We used and updated the guidelines while annotating 200 synthetic clinic letters uploaded here (10.5281/zenodo.8381079 [annotations in JSON format: 10.5281/zenodo.8356493] ) and are continuously updating the lists and examples to make the annotation process as easy as possible for researchers with little clinical knowledge.

Although designed to guide through the annotation of epilepsy documents, the guidelines can be adapted to other diseases, with changes to entities and with the temporal concepts relating to Onset, When Diagnosed, and Patient History most likely remaining the same.

description: This paper discusses how the faculty at an urban public middle/high school prioritized the identification and cultivation of student leaders in order to improve equity, classroom management, and student learning. Faculty identified student leaders, piloted steps to develop them, and shared a rubric to assess leadership performance. The paper illustrates a promising case of faculty collaboration, but also the limitations of relatively inexperienced group in a challenging demographic and institutional setting. A focus on student leaders may help teachers advance the mathematical practices prioritized by the Common Core mathematics standards.

description: We analyze the asymptotic behavior of a partial differential equation (PDE) model for hematopoiesis. This PDE model is derived from the original agent-based model formulated by (Roeder et al., Nat. Med., 2006), and it describes the progression of blood cell development from the stem cell to the terminally differentiated state. To conduct our analysis, we start with the PDE model of (Kim et al, JTB, 2007), which coincides very well with the simulation results obtained by Roeder et al. We simplify the PDE model to make it amenable to analysis and justify our approximations using numerical simulations. An analysis of the simplified PDE model proves to exhibit very similar properties to those of the original agent-based model, even if for slightly different parameters. Hence, the simplified model is of value in understanding the dynamics of hematopoiesis and of chronic myelogenous leukemia, and it presents the advantage of having fewer parameters, which makes comparison with both experimental data and alternative models much easier.

description: Cilia and flagella are hair-like extensions of eukaryotic cells which generate oscillatory beat patterns that can propel micro-organisms and create fluid flows near cellular surfaces. The evolutionary highly conserved core of cilia and flagella consists of a cylindrical arrangement of nine microtubule doublets, called the axoneme. The axoneme is an actively bending structure whose motility results from the action of dynein motor proteins cross-linking microtubule doublets and generating stresses that induce bending deformations. The periodic beat patterns are the result of a mechanical feedback that leads to self-organized bending waves along the axoneme. Using a theoretical framework to describe planar beating motion, we derive a nonlinear wave equation that describes the fundamental Fourier mode of the axonemal beat. We study the role of nonlinearities and investigate how the amplitude of oscillations increases in the vicinity of an oscillatory instability. We furthermore present numerical solutions of the nonlinear wave equation for different boundary conditions. We find that the nonlinear waves are well approximated by the linearly unstable modes for amplitudes of beat patterns similar to those observed experimentally.

description: The purpose of this article is to present the findings of a quantitative study focused on primary mathematics teachers who participated in an intensive professional development program and then had leadership responsibility for the implementation of a new primary mathematics curriculum in their district. The study examines the effect of the professional development on teachers’ and students’ mathematical knowledge. Results indicate that effective implementation of a new curriculum can improve students’ mathematical knowledge, but that the effect of the curriculum implementation on student mathematical knowledge is enhanced when teachers improve their mathematical knowledge for teaching and are simultaneously involved in the leadership activities of the curriculum implementation.

description: Coherent spin oscillations were non-thermally induced by circularly polarized pulses in fully compensated antiferromagnetic NiO. This effect is attributed to an entirely new mechanism of the action, on the spins, of the effective magnetic field generated by an inverse Faraday effect. The novelty of this mechanism is that spin oscillations are driven by the time derivative of the effective magnetic field acting even on "pure" antiferromagnets with zero net magnetic moment in the ground state. The measured frequencies (1.07 THz and 140 GHz) of the spin oscillations correspond to the out-of-plane and in-plane modes of antiferromagnetic magnons.

description: In this paper we share our reflections regarding the role of ethnomathematics in providing direction for leadership in mathematics education. Our arguments are grounded in an analysis of the world today, characterized by inequities and injustices, clamoring for a new social order. We contemplate the role of mathematics and mathematics education in improving the world for the benefit of future generations. In our vision, the Program Ethnomathematics is positioned as a theoretical framework capable of guiding practice and curriculum for a very different educational project, one that centers the children in a world of social equity and justice as well as a world in which humanity achieves equilibrium with and respect for nature and its resources. We end our reflections with some thoughts on the preparation of teachers and leaders for this alternate educational project.

Photon creation from vacuum and interactions engineering in nonstationary circuit QED

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study theoretically the nonstationary circuit QED system in which the artificial atom transition frequency, or the atom-cavity coupling, have a small periodic time modulation, prescribed externally. The system formed by the atom coupled to a single cavity mode is described by the Rabi Hamiltonian. We show that, in the dispersive regime, when the modulation periodicity is tuned to the `resonances', the system dynamics presents the dynamical Casimir effect, resonant Jaynes-Cummings or resonant Anti-Jaynes-Cummings behaviors, and it can be described by the corresponding effective Hamiltonians. In the resonant atom-cavity regime and under the resonant modulation, the dynamics is similar to the one occurring for a stationary two-level atom in a vibrating cavity, and an entangled state with two photons can be created from vacuum. Moreover, we consider the situation in which the atom-cavity coupling, the atomic frequency, or both have a small nonperiodic time modulation, and show that photons can be created from vacuum in the dispersive regime. Therefore, an analog of the dynamical Casimir effect can be simulated in circuit QED, and several photons, as well as entangled states, can be generated from vacuum due to the anti-rotating term in the Rabi Hamiltonian.

Computational study, design, and synthesis of chiral phosphoric acids for asymmetric catalysis

description: Chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) catalysts have witnessed rapid development recently. They have demonstrated remarkable applicability in catalyzing various reactions in part due to their modular chiral environment and acidity through substituent tuning. In the pursuit of understanding their catalytic mechanisms for optimizing reaction conditions and designing improved catalysts, chemists have applied a range of techniques to understand how these catalysts operate. Chiral phosphates, a structurally related but much less understood catalyst system have also been shown to catalyze many transformations in high levels of enantioselectivity. However, the lack of mechanistic understanding makes it difficult to develop reactions relying on these catalysts more generally and devise novel transformations. With this backdrop, the goal of my work is to first develop a comprehensive understanding of how chiral phosphates impart high levels of enantioselectivity for diverse reactions. Then in turn use this information to design reactions and catalysts for higher enantioselectivity in asymmetric catalysis. More specifically, I studied the chiral phosphate-catalyzed aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction using computations. The results showed that in the lowest energy transition states (TS) two hydrogen bonds, one from the iminium (C–H) and the other from indole (N–H), interact with the catalyst oxygens. Expanded exploration of this mode of stereoinduction to other similar reactions involving cationic intermediates show many reactions proceed in this way. Critically, the strength of the C– H contact with the phosphate can impact the level of enantioselectivity afforded. With this information, I set out to develop a complementary reaction to achieve cyclic N,S-acetals in higher enantioselectivity with designer protocols that rely on significantly stronger H–bonding interactions with the catalyst. Although, these efforts did not provide high levels of enantioselectivity for a variety of reasons the reaction strategies should provide a useful starting point for further optimization. Finally, one of the potential issues with the new protocols could be a lack of acidity, meaning background reactions are competitive. Given this and with the communities’ desire to continuously develop Brønsted acid catalysts with greater levels of acidity, I attempted to design and test a new biphenyl catalyst embedded with unique, chiral electron withdrawing substituents.

description: We study the dynamics of water confined between hydrophobic flat surfaces at low temperature. At different pressures, we observe different behaviors that we understand in terms of the hydrogen bonds dynamics. At high pressure, the formation of the open structure of the hydrogen bond network is inhibited and the surfaces can be rapidly dehydrated by decreasing the temperature. At lower pressure the rapid ordering of the hydrogen bonds generates heterogeneities that are responsible for strong non-exponential behavior of the correlation function, but with no strong increase of the correlation time. At very low pressures, the gradual formation of the hydrogen bond network is responsible for the large increase of the correlation time and, eventually, the dynamical arrest of the system and of the dehydration process.

description: In this paper we construct the supersymmetric tensor hierarchy of N=1, d=4 supergravity. We find some differences with the general bosonic construction of 4-dimensional gauged supergravities. The global symmetry group of N=1,d=4 supergravity consists of three factors: the scalar manifold isometry group, the invariance group of the complex vector kinetic matrix and the U(1) R-symmetry group. In contrast to (half)-maximal supergravities, the latter two symmetries are not embedded into the isometry group of the scalar manifold. We identify some components of the embedding tensor with Fayet-Iliopoulos terms and we find that supersymmetry implies that the inclusion of R-symmetry as a factor of the global symmetry group requires a non-trivial extension of the standard p-form hierarchy. This extension involves additional 3- and 4-forms. One additional 3-form is dual to the superpotential (seen as a deformation of the simplest theory). We study the closure of the supersymmetry algebra on all the bosonic p-form fields of the hierarchy up to duality relations. In order to close the supersymmetry algebra without the use of duality relations one must construct the hierarchy in terms of supermultiplets. Such a construction requires fermionic duality relations among the hierarchy's fermions and these turn out to be local.

description: Good leadership requires commitment, a sense of purpose, and a feeling for what is possible, but does not necessarily require the presence of a single individual called “the leader.” The successful educational undertaking described here exhibits a form of distributed leadership, where many individuals and organizations cooperate to achieve a common end without a clearly defined leader or unified organizational structure.

title: The Effects of Paternal Absence on Male Children

description: The society in which our children are living and growing today is complicated by strife and conflict both internally and externally . It is a time when statisticians are telling us that 481 out of 1,000 marriages, or nearly one out of every four, will end in divorce; many others will end in separations not legally terminated (Bureau of Census, 1966). Many families are also separated because of the military action which at present is keeping 500,000 men at war in a country many thousands of miles from their families. During the year 1967 over nine thousand of this number did not live to return to their families (U.S. News, 1968).
If many of our children are living in fatherless homes, it is, therefore, important that we understand, as much as possible, the effects of this separation upon the child. By understanding and appreciating more fully the situations a fatherless child must face, the school counselor can become more fully prepared to assist the child.
It is one of those generally accepted facts that for the best development of the child he should live in a home where both the mother and the father are present and supportive. Two studies verify this generalization by showing the effects of paternal deprivation. Suedfeld (1967) reported that paternal absence during childhood differentiated significantly between successful and unsuccessful Peace Corps volunteers. In two independent studies, the proportion of individuals from fatherless homes was significantly greater among unsuccessful volunteers. Pasley (1955) published a book containing brief biographies of the 21 Americans and one Briton who elected to stay in Communist China after the Korean War. As Pasley pointed out, of the 21 Americans, eleven had "lost their fathers at an early age, through divorce or death." Of the 21, nineteen "felt unloved or unwanted by fathers or step-fathers (p. 424)."
"That children are best reared in a home with two loving and understanding parents is so obvious as to need no statement," Dorothy Barclay (1959, p. 69) has commented, typifying current opinion. This viewpoint is so prevalent that it comes close to heresy to question it. Although William Goode (1956), in his comprehensive study of divorce, points to the almost total lack of research on the effects of divorce on children, he concludes:

At every developmental phase of childhood the child needs the father (who is usually the absent parent) as an object of love, security, or identification, or even as a figure against whom to rebel safely.... It would be surprising if the absence of the father had no effect on the child (p. 309).
Leading People: Leadership in Mathematics Education

description: The issue of leadership in mathematics education—always a matter of some contention—has been complicated by developments in the field over the past half century or so. When mathematics education began to emerge as an academic field at the beginning of the twentieth century, so few people were seriously concerned with either its practice or its study that virtually all of them could be considered leaders of some sort. That situation prevailed until the new math era, when a new and larger generation of mathematics educators appeared in colleges and universities. Since the new math era, mathematics education people and programs have proliferated to such an extent that leadership has become much more diversified and identifying leaders much more difficult. Today we need attention not only to the nature of leadership in our field but also to a serious study of that leadership. Note: Based on a colloquium presentation at Teachers College in March 2013. I am grateful to Bruce Vogeli and Henry Pollak for inviting and introducing my contribution, Gabriella Oldham for transcribing my remarks, Sandi Clarkson for catching several lapses, and Benjamin Dickman for helping untangle my thoughts on leadership characteristics. The remaining flaws are all my own.

description: This study drew on data from a large, randomized trial of Cognitive Tutor Algebra (CTA) in high-poverty settings to investigate how mathematics curricula and classroom achievement related to teacher reports of time spent on inquiry-based and lecture-based mathematics activities. We found that teachers using the CTA curriculum reported more time on inquiry-based activities and less time on teacher lecture activities overall compared to non-CTA teachers. However, both CTA and non-CTA teachers of the highest-achieving students spent more time on inquiry-based activities compared to teachers of lower-achieving students. Additionally, CTA teachers in classrooms with the most low-achieving and non-gifted students reported almost as much time on lecturebased activities as their non-CTA counterparts. Qualitative findings suggest that CTA teachers engaged in more traditional lecture-based activities and fewer inquiry-based activities when they thought their lower-achieving students could not tackle the reading open-ended activities in the curriculum without explicit demonstration and traditional practice problems. CTA thus appeared to increase inquiry-based activities in teachers’ classrooms overall. However, lower-achieving students may have had needs unaddressed by the CTA curriculum. These findings thus imply that districts should think carefully about how to implement CTA and—potentially—other inquiry-based curricula in order to support teachers of students with the highest needs and least preparation.
