description: Puerarin (PUE) is the most abundant isoflavonoid in kudzu root. It is widely used as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the short elimination half-life, poor-bioavailability, and acute intravascular hemolysis of PUE are the main obstacles to its widespread clinical applications. Whereas PEG-PE micelles possess the ability to release medicine slowly, enhance the cellular uptake of drugs and improve their biocompatibility. Therefore, it was aim to fabricate puerarin-loaded PEG-PE (PUE@PEG-PE) micelles to improve the pharmaceutical properties of drugs. It can be observed from the TEM images that PUE@PEG-PE micelles appeared obvious core-shell structure and remained well-dispersed without aggregation and adhesion. PUE was successfully embedded in the core of PEG-PE micelles, which was confirmed by FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra. In vitro studies showed that PUE@PEG-PE micelles exhibited a sustained release behavior in pH 7.4 PBS buffer and decreased hemolysis rate of PUE. Compared with PUE, PUE@PEG-PE micelles showed a 3.2-fold increase in the half-life of PUE and a 1.58-fold increase in bioavailability. In addition, the PUE@PEG-PE micelles exerted enhanced protective effect against isoprenaline-induced H9c2 cells apoptosis compared with PUE, as evident by decreased percentage of Hoechst-positive cells, Caspase 3 activity, Bax expression, and increased Bcl-2 expression. Notably, the PEG-PE micelles exhibited favorable cellular uptake efficiency on H9c2 cells, and this may account for their enhanced anti-apoptotic effect of the incorporated drug. Altogether, the PUE@PEG-PE micelles were not only able to control the drug release but also offered promise to enhance the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic potential of PUE.

description: We investigate both analytically and numerically the ground-state and thermodynamic properties of the quantum mixed spin-1/2-1/2-1-1 chain described by the Hamiltonian $H=\sum_{\ell=1}^{N/4} (J_1\vecs_{4\ell-3}\cdot \vecs_{4\ell-2}+J_2\vecs_{4\ell-2}\cdot\vecS_{4\ell-1}+J_3\vecS_{4\ell-1}\cdot \vecS_{4\ell}+J_2\vecS_{4\ell}\cdot\vecs_{4\ell+1})$, where two $S=1/2$ spins ($\vecs_{4\ell-3}$ and $\vecs_{4\ell-2}$) and two S=1 spins ($\vecS_{4\ell-1}$ and $\vecS_{4\ell}$) are arranged alternatively. Inseveral limiting cases of $J_1$, $J_2$, and $J_3$ we apply the Wigner-Eckart theorem and carry out a perturbation calculation to examine the behavior of the massless lines where the energy gap vanishes. Performing a quantum Monte Carlo calculation without global flips at a sufficiently low temperature for the case where $J_1=J_3=1.0$ and $J_2>0$, we find that the ground state of the present system in this case undergoes a second-order phase transition accompanying the vanishing of the energy gap at $J_2=J_{2c$ with $J_{2 c} = 0.77 \pm 0.01$. We also find that the ground states for both $J_2 < J_{2 c$ and $J_2 > J_{2c$ can be understood by means of the valence-bond-solid picture. A quantum Monte Carlo calculation which takes the global flips along the Trotter direction into account is carried out to elucidate the temperature dependences of the specific heat and the magnetic susceptibility. In particular, it is found that the susceptibility per unit cell for $J_2=0.77$ with $J_1=J_3=1.0$ takes a finite value at absolute zero temperature and that the specific heat per unit cell versus temperature curve for $J_2=5.0$ with $J_1=J_3=1.0$ has a double peak.

description: Searching for black hole echo signals with gravitational waves provides a means of probing the near-horizon regime of these objects. We demonstrate a pipeline to efficiently search for these signals in gravitational wave data and calculate model selection probabilities between signal and no-signal hypotheses. As an example of its use we calculate Bayes factors for the Abedi-Dykaar-Afshordi (ADA) model on events in LIGO's first observing run and compare to existing results in the literature. We discuss the benefits of using a full likelihood exploration over existing search methods that used template banks and calculated p-values. We use the waveforms of ADA, although the method is easily extendable to other waveforms. With these waveforms we are able to demonstrate a range of echo amplitudes that is already is ruled out by the data.

description: We have determined the dynamical dielectric response of a one-dimensional, correlated insulator by carrying out electron energy-loss spectroscopy on Sr2CuO3 single crystals. The observed momentum and energy dependence of the low-energy features, which correspond to collective transitions across the gap, are well described by an extended one-band Hubbard model with moderate nearest neighbor Coulomb interaction strength. An exciton-like peak appears with increasing momentum transfer. These observations provide experimental evidence for spin-charge separation in the relevant excitations of this compound, as theoretically expected for the one-dimensional Hubbard model.

description: 3D printing of concrete (3DPC) has been demonstrated to be a potential and viable solution for different infrastructure applications considering its multiple benefits and the continuous advances in achieving an advanced manufacturing process, using innovative materials, and using unique approaches to demonstrate high-performance characteristics. Still, some challenges remain to be addressed as this technology advances through the stages of prototyping, validation, and testing; looking to establish itself as an alternative to cast concrete for the mass production of civil infrastructure. The research presented in this dissertation is focused on the influence of the fabrication process of 3D-printed concrete on three relevant aspects for its deployment in large-scale scenarios. These aspects include the scalability of mixture development for different printing systems, the mechanical performance of reinforced 3D-printed elements, and the initial evaluation of durability properties. This research aims to contribute to the development of strategies to understand the effects of the mixture composition and the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in the process of mixture development to enhance the printability characteristics, fresh state properties, and durability properties of these materials. Furthermore, the incorporation of novel reinforcement alternatives and controlled architectures, in addition to the study of the transport properties of 3D-printed elements can lead to advances in the use of 3D-printed concrete in structural applications.
The transition from the adiabatic to the sudden limit in core level photoemission: A model study of a localized system

description: We consider core electron photoemission in a localized system, where there is a charge transfer excitation. The system is modelled by three electron levels, one core level and two outer levels. The model has a Coulomb interaction between these levels and the continuum states into which the core electron is emitted. The model is simple enough to allow an exact numerical solution, and with a separable potential an analytic solution. We calculate the ratio r(omega) between the weights of the satellite and the main peak as a function of the photon energy omega. The transition from the adiabatic to the sudden limit takes place for quite small photoelectron kinetic energies. For such small energies, the variation of the dipole matrix element is substantial and described by the energy scale Ed. Without the coupling to the photoelectron, the corresponding ratio r0(omega) is determined by Ed and the satellite excitation energy dE. When the interaction potential with the continuum states is introduced, a new energy scale Es=1/(2Rs^2) enters, where Rs is a length scale of the interaction potential. At threshold there is typically a (weak) constructive interference between intrinsic and extrinsic contributions, and the ratio r(omega)/r0(omega) is larger than its limiting value for large omega. The interference becomes small or weakly destructive for photoelectron energies of the order Es. For larger energies r(omega)/r0(omega) therefore typically has a weak undershoot. If this undershoot is neglected, r(omega)/r0(omega) reaches its limiting value on the energy scale Es.

This result is extended to all abelian groups in case $|A|=p^2, \ p$ a prime. Finally, in case $A$ is countably infinite, those $f$ for which it is possible to turn $A$ into a group $(A,*)$ isomorphic to ${\Bbb Z}^n$ for some $n\ge 1$, and with $f\in \mbox{Aut} (A)$, are completely characterised.

description: The protein and oil contents in soybean seeds are major factors in seed quality. Seed proteins and oils are synthesized from sucrose and nitrogenous compounds transported into maturing seeds. In this study, we compared changes in the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) and the accumulation profiles of protein and oil in maturing seeds of two soybean cultivars, which exhibit different protein and oil contents in seeds, to determine the interrelationships of them. A principal component analysis indicated a concordance of seed PEPC activity with the protein content, but did not with the oil content. PEPC activity per seed was highest in the late maturation stage, when the physiological status of the vegetative organs drastically changed. The high-protein cultivar had higher PEPC activity compared to the low-protein cultivar. These results highlight the biological role of PEPC in the synthesis of protein, therefore it was implied that PEPC could be a biomarker in soybean breeding. Abbreviations: ANOVA: analysis of variance; DS: developmental stage; DW: dry weight; FW: fresh weight; NIR: near infrared; PEP(C): phosphoenolpyruvate (carboxylase); PC(A): principal component (analysis); S.E.: standard error; WC: water content. Soy seed PEPC play a role for providing carbon skelton of amino acids of storage protein from starch in responce to N supply at the late maturing stage.

Gross Fixed Investments and Their Role in National Accounting and GDP
Creators: name: Leogrande, Angelo
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Gross fixed investments represent a fundamental component of national accounting and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). They measure the value of economic resources allocated for the acquisition, construction, or improvement of fixed capital assets, such as buildings, infrastructure, machinery, equipment, software, and technologies. Gross fixed investments include both the replacement of obsolete capital (depreciation) and the expansion of productive capital. Within the context of GDP, gross fixed investments constitute a crucial part of aggregate demand, directly contributing to short-term economic growth. Furthermore, they are essential for long-term development, as they enhance productive capacity, improve competitiveness, and drive technological innovation. Their dynamics reflect the confidence levels of economic operators, the cost of capital, and economic policies, such as tax incentives or public funding. Gross fixed investments generate multiplier effects on employment and income, stimulating key sectors and strengthening the foundation for sustainable development. The data refer to the period between 2014 and 2023. Gross fixed investments represent a critical component of aggregate demand and, consequently, GDP. This variable measures the economic resources dedicated to acquiring fixed capital assets, such as buildings, machinery, infrastructure, plants, equipment, and technologies. Gross fixed investments indicate an economy's ability to expand and improve its productive capital, contributing both to immediate growth and future development potential.

description: Objectives: To evaluate the safety of sifalimumab in Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods: This phase 2, open-label study consisted of a 52-week initial stage (Stage I) and a long-term extension (Stage II). In Stage I, sequential cohorts of patients received ascending doses of sifalimumab (intravenous [IV] 1.0, 3.0, and 10.0 mg/kg or subcutaneous 100 mg every 2 weeks; IV 600 and 1200 mg every 6 weeks). In Stage II, patients enrolled before June 2012 received the same dose of sifalimumab as during Stage I for up to 157 weeks or sifalimumab 600 mg IV every 4 weeks if they enrolled later. The safety of sifalimumab was assessed by adverse events (AEs). Results: Thirty patients enrolled in Stage I and 21 patients entered Stage II. The majority of patients experienced AEs (96.7% in Stage I and 100% in Stage II); most were mild or moderate in severity. Serious AEs occurred in 30.0% and 57.1% of patients in Stage I and II, respectively; most were instances of SLE flares. The proportion of patients in Stage I and II who had AEs leading to discontinuation was 10.0% and 28.6%, respectively. Conclusion: Sifalimumab was well tolerated in Japanese patients with SLE.

description: Excitons in semiconductors, bound pairs of excited electrons and holes, can form the basis for new classes of quantum optoelectronic devices. A van der Waals heterostructure built from atomically thin semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) enables the formation of excitons from electrons and holes in distinct layers, producing interlayer excitons with large binding energy and a long lifetime. Employing heterostructures of monolayer TMDs, we realize optical and electrical generation of long-lived neutral and charged interlayer excitons. We demonstrate the transport of neutral interlayer excitons across the whole sample that can be controlled by excitation power and gate electrodes. We also realize the drift motion of charged interlayer excitons using Ohmic-contacted devices. The electrical generation and control of excitons provides a new route for realizing quantum manipulation of bosonic composite particles with complete electrical tunability.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: International financial relations refer to the economic interactions between countries, encompassing trade, investment flows, and monetary policies. These relations are essential for fostering global economic growth, development, and cooperation, but they also present a range of challenges. Imbalances in power, financial instability, and disparities in wealth distribution are some of the persistent issues that can hinder equitable development. The complexities of international financial systems, including issues such as currency volatility, trade imbalances, and national debt, further complicate the global economic landscape. Additionally, globalization and technological advancements introduce both opportunities and risks, requiring countries to navigate an increasingly interconnected and volatile environment. This paper explores the key problems within international financial relations and discusses potential solutions, with a focus on fostering fairness, resilience, and sustainability in the global economy. It examines the role of multilateral institutions, the need for regulatory coordination, and the importance of international collaboration in addressing the challenges of the modern global financial system. Ultimately, the paper highlights the importance of balancing economic integration with equitable growth to ensure a stable and prosperous future for all nations.

description: We present an exact analytic study on the topological phase interference effect in resonant quantum tunneling of the magnetization between degenerate excited levels for biaxial ferromagnets in an arbitrarily directed magnetic field. We show that the topological phase interference effect depends on the orientation of the field distinctly. The transition from classical to quantum behavior is also discussed.

description: Employing a method of exact diagonalization for finite-size systems, we investigate the magnetization curve in the ground state of an antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 ladder with additional exchange interactions on diagonal bonds, which is equivalent to an antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 chain with bond-alternating nearest-neighbor and uniform next-nearest-neighbor interactions. It is found that a half-plateau appears in the magnetization curve in a certain range of the interaction constants. This result is discussed in connection with the necessary condition for the appearance of the plateau, recently given by Oshikawa et al.

Completeness of boundary conditions for the critical three-state Potts model

description: We show that the conformally invariant boundary conditions for the three-state Potts model are exhausted by the eight known solutions. Their structure is seen to be similar to the one in a free field theory that leads to the existence of D-branes in string theory. Specifically, the fixed and mixed boundary conditions correspond to Neumann conditions, while the free boundary condition and the new one recently found by Affleck et al [1] have a natural interpretation as Dirichlet conditions for a higher-spin current. The latter two conditions are governed by the Lee\hy Yang fusion rules. These results can be generalized to an infinite series of non-diagonal minimal models, and beyond.

Wobbly Dark Matter Signals at Cherenkov Telescopes from Long Lived Mediator Decays

description: Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) searches for dark matter often perform observations in "wobble mode", i.e. collecting data from the signal region and from a corresponding background control region at the same time, enabling efficient simultaneous determination and subtraction of background. This observation strategy is possibly compromised in scenarios where dark matter annihilates to long-lived mediators that can traverse astrophysical distances before decaying to produce the gamma rays observed by the IACTs. In this paper, we show that this challenge comes with several interesting features and opportunities: in addition to signal contamination in the background control region, the gamma-ray spectrum changes with the observing direction angle and typically exhibits a hard excess at high energies. This affects signal reconstruction via subtraction of the background control region measurements in non-trivial ways. Such features represent a significant departure from the canonical picture, and offer novel handles to identify a dark matter signal and to extract underlying dark matter parameters.

description: Objective: When dealing with the impact of malocclusion on self-esteem, the terms global and dental self-esteem are sometimes used. Although these terms are related to one another, they do not depict the same concept. The aims of this paper were to explore if the two forms of self-esteem are distinguishable, to find out if they represent different factors, and to investigate how they are related to malocclusion. Materials and methods: A sample consisting of 150 adolescents, aged 13 years, completed self-assessed measures of Dental and Global Self-Esteem. Orthodontic treatment need for each individual was assessed by the Dental Health Component of the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN-DHC). Data were analysed by factor analyses and a 5 (IOTN-DHC grades) by 2 (global vs. dental self-esteem) ANOVA, with the IOTN-DHC grades as the independent and self-esteem (repeated measure) as the dependent variables. Results: The factor analyses showed that the two forms of self-esteem, based on the measures, are distinguishable. More importantly, the results of the ANOVA revealed that Dental and Global Self-Esteem are differentially related to IOTN-DHC. Specifically, Dental Self-Esteem varied across IOTN-DHC scale while Global Self-Esteem did not. There was no effect of gender. Conclusions: Dental self-esteem is related to malocclusion while global self-esteem is not. These findings have implications in areas where the predictive power of dental self-esteem needs to be considered.
Normal State Ettingshausen Effect in La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4}

description: A method for measurements of small (metallic) Ettingshausen coefficient (P) was developed. The influence of the dominating thermal effects, the Joule and Thomson heats, was eliminated making use of the odd symmetry of the Ettingshausen temperature gradient in respect with reversing of the direction of the magnetic field and electrical current. The method was applied to La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4} ($x=0.03÷0.35$) high-T_c superconductor in normal state. We have found that in the whole composition range the Ettingshausen coefficient is of the order of 10^{-7} m^{3} K/J which is characteristic of typical metals. The coefficient changes sign from positive to negative near $x\approx 0.07$. Weak variation of P is in contrast to the behavior of other transport coefficients for La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4}, as the thermoeletric power or the Hall coefficient, which have been reported in literature to change their values by more than two orders of magnitude with Sr doping.

description: A new δ-valerolactone compound, named 8-hydroxy invictolide 2 (1), a new natural product 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethyl-6-(pentan-2-yl) tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one (2) together with four known compounds cyclo (L-Pro-L-Tyr) (3), cyclo (D-Pro-L-Tyr) (4), acetyltryptophan methyl ester (5), 2-aminobenzoic acid (6) were isolated from marine Streptomyces sp. YIM 13591. Their structures were elucidated by NMR spectroscopic data, HRESIMS and specific rotation, and the absolute configurations of the stereo centre in lactone ring 1 and 2 were further confirmed by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation. The antimicrobial effects of these compounds were evaluated by the paper diffusion method.

description: This paper surveys the main results obtained during the period 1992-1999 on three aspects mentioned at the title. The first result is a new and general variational formula for the lower bound of spectral gap (i.e., the first non-trivial eigenvalue) of elliptic operators in Euclidean space, Laplacian on Riemannian manifolds or Markov chains (§1). Here, a probabilistic method-coupling method is adopted. The new formula is a dual of the classical variational formula. The last formula is actually equivalent to Poincaré inequality. To which, there are closely related logarithmic Sobolev inequality, Nash inequality, Liggett inequality and so on. These inequalities are treated in a unified way by using Cheeger's method which comes from Riemannian geometry. This consists of §2. The results on these two aspects are mainly completed by the author joint with F. Y. Wang. Furthermore, a diagram of the inequalities and the traditional three types of ergodicity is presented (§3). The diagram extends the ergodic theory of Markov processes. The details of the methods used in the paper will be explained in a subsequent paper under the same title.

description: Recent studies have argued that the progenitor system of type Iax supernovae must consist of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf accreting from a helium star companion. Based on existing explosion models invoking the pure deflagration of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs, we investigate the likelihood of producing spectral features due to helium in type Iax supernovae. From this scenario, we select those explosion models producing ejecta and $^{56}$Ni masses that are broadly consistent with those estimated for type Iax supernovae (0.014 - 0.478~$M_{\odot}$ and $\sim0.003$ - 0.183~$M_{\odot}$, respectively). To this end, we present a series of models of varying luminosities ($-18.4 \lesssim M_{\rm{V}} \lesssim -14.5$~mag) with helium abundances accounting for up to $\sim$36\% of the ejecta mass, and covering a range of epochs beginning a few days before B$-$band maximum to approximately two weeks after maximum. We find that the best opportunity for detecting \ion{He}{i} features is at near-infrared wavelengths, and in the post-maximum spectra of the fainter members of this class. We show that the optical spectrum of SN~2007J is potentially consistent with a large helium content (a few 10$^{-2}~M_{\odot}$), but argue that current models of accretion and material stripping from a companion struggle to produce compatible scenarios. We also investigate the presence of helium in all objects with near-infrared spectra. We show that SNe~2005hk, 2012Z, and 2015H contain either no helium or their helium abundances are constrained to much lower values ($\lesssim$10$^{-3}~M_{\odot}$). Our results demonstrate the differences in helium content among type Iax supernovae, perhaps pointing to different progenitor channels. Either SN~2007J is an outlier in terms of its progenitor system, or it is not a true member of the type Iax supernova class.

description: The use of digital watermarking to secure the content of database systems is a new research direction in information security. Until now, the majority of the work has been based on image, video and audio. However, because of the growing use of relational database systems, database watermarking has become a research subject. Which addresses the legal issue of database system copyright protection. In this paper, we have focused on the review of four relational database watermarking techniques proposed by researchers [R. Agarwal & Jerry Kiernan, ZHU Qin, Brijesh B. Mehta, A. Al-Haj and Ali Hamadou]. The security of relational databases has been a great concern since the expanded use of these data over the Internet. Digital watermarking for relational databases emerged as a candidate solution to provide copyright protection, tamper detection, traitor tracing and maintaining integrity of relational data.
