description: This study explores neurologists’ and psychiatrists’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices concerning genetic tests. Psychiatrists (n = 5,316) and neurologists (n = 2,167) on the American Medical Association master list who had agreed to receive surveys were sent an email link to a survey about their attitudes and practices regarding genetic testing; 372 psychiatrists and 163 neurologists responded. A higher proportion of neurologists (74 %) than psychiatrists (14 %) who responded to the survey had ordered genetic testing in the past 6 months. Overall, most respondents thought that genetic tests should be performed more frequently, but almost half believed genetic tests could harm patients psychologically and considered legal protections inadequate. Almost half of neurologists (49 %) and over 75 % of psychiatrists did not have a genetics professional to whom to refer patients; those who had ordered genetic tests were more likely than those who did not do so to have access to a genetic counselor. Of respondents, 10 % had received patient requests not to document genetic information and 15 % had received inquiries about direct‐to‐consumer genetic testing. Neurologists reported themselves to be relatively more experienced and knowledgeable about genetics than psychiatrists. These data, the first to examine several important issues concerning knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of neurologists and psychiatrists regarding genetic tests, have important implications for future practice, research, and education.

description: Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are small, low-luminosity galaxies with little dust and an older stellar population. They are companions of the Milky Way and other large galaxies such as the Andromeda Galaxy in the Local Group. This work was based on the structural properties of six ultra-faint dwarf galaxies: Bootes I, Canes Venatici II, Coma Berenices, Hercules, Leo IV and Ursa Major I. Our findings are based on a combination of high-precision photometry obtained from the Advanced Camera for Surveys of Hubble Space Telescope and the isochrones generated by the Dartmouth Stellar Database. Calculations of metallicities [Fe/H] and abundance of α elements [α/Fe] in our analysis suggest that ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are similar in age to the Milky Way halo. The globular cluster NGC 2808, in the Milky Way halo, was taken as a reference for a comparison of key properties with the six galaxies. Globular clusters are also considered to be old as the halo of the Milky Way. The abundance patterns of the most metal-poor stars in the small dwarf galaxies and the galactic halo give us useful information about the early universe. Thus, these old survivors provide information on the evolution of elements, the nature of the first stars and the first processes of star and galaxy formation, as well as the process of assembling the stellar halo of dwarf galaxies long ago. While the six ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are older than 10 Gyr, globular clusters appear much younger than UFDs with higher metallicity compared to them.

description: We study the following singularly perturbed problem for a coupled nonlinear Schrödinger system: {displaymath} {cases}-\e^2Δu +a(x) u = μ_1 u^3+βuv^2, \quad x\in \R^3, -\e^2Δv +b(x) v =μ_2 v^3+βvu^2, \quad x\in \R^3, u> 0, v> 0 \,\,\hbox{in $\R^3$}, u(x), v(x)\to 0 \,\,\hbox{as $|x|\to \iy$}.{cases}{displaymath} Here, $a, b$ are nonnegative continuous potentials, and $μ_1,μ_2>0$. We consider the case where the coupling constant $β>0$ is relatively large. Then for sufficiently small $\e>0$, we obtain positive solutions of this system which concentrate around local minima of the potentials as $\e\to 0$. The novelty is that the potentials $a$ and $b$ may vanish at someplace and decay to 0 at infinity.

description: Bell's 1964 theorem, which states that the predictions of quantum theory cannot be accounted for by any local theory, represents one of the most profound developments in the foundations of physics. In the last two decades, Bell's theorem has been a central theme of research from a variety of perspectives, mainly motivated by quantum information science, where the nonlocality of quantum theory underpins many of the advantages afforded by a quantum processing of information. The focus of this review is to a large extent oriented by these later developments. We review the main concepts and tools which have been developed to describe and study the nonlocality of quantum theory, and which have raised this topic to the status of a full sub-field of quantum information science.

description: In pure strategy meta-heuristics, only one search strategy is applied for all time. In mixed strategy meta-heuristics, each time one search strategy is chosen from a strategy pool with a probability and then is applied. An example is classical genetic algorithms, where either a mutation or crossover operator is chosen with a probability each time. The aim of this paper is to compare the performance between mixed strategy and pure strategy meta-heuristic algorithms. First an experimental study is implemented and results demonstrate that mixed strategy evolutionary algorithms may outperform pure strategy evolutionary algorithms on the 0-1 knapsack problem in up to 77.8% instances. Then Complementary Strategy Theorem is rigorously proven for applying mixed strategy at the population level. The theorem asserts that given two meta-heuristic algorithms where one uses pure strategy 1 and another uses pure strategy 2, the condition of pure strategy 2 being complementary to pure strategy 1 is sufficient and necessary if there exists a mixed strategy meta-heuristics derived from these two pure strategies and its expected number of generations to find an optimal solution is no more than that of using pure strategy 1 for any initial population, and less than that of using pure strategy 1 for some initial population.

description: Fließgewässer bieten sich zur Nutzung ihrer Umweltwärme im Rahmen der Wärmebereitstellung durch Wärmepumpen an; denn zum einen hat Wasser eine hohe spezifische Wärmekapazität (etwa 4,2 kJ/(kg K)) und zum anderen wird durch das fließende Wasser dafür gesorgt, dass die Wärmequelle fortlaufend regeneriert. Der Einsatz eines Wärmeübertragers im Fließgewässer macht es möglich, die dortige Umweltwärme aufzunehmen und zur Wärmepumpe zu führen. Wie gut der Wärmeübergang am Wärmeübertrager vollzogen werden kann, hängt unter anderem davon ab, wie sich die laminare Grenzschicht an der Wandung des Wärmeübertragers entwickelt. Sie wirkt wie ein Wärmewiderstand, da hier die Wärme größtenteils über Wärmeleitung transportiert wird und kaum über die effektivere Variante der Konvektion, wie es in der turbulenten Strömung geschieht. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Entwicklung der Grenzschichten an einem Versuchsstand des Fachgebiets Wasserbau und Hydraulik an der Technischen Universität Darmstadt zu untersuchen. Dabei sollen die Einflüsse der Anströmgeschwindigkeit und der Spaltbreiten des Wärmeübertragers – welche beide die Grenzschichtentwicklung verändern – auf den Wärmeübergang analysiert wer-den. Ergänzend hierzu soll ein Bezug zum Strömungswiderstand bei einem breitenvariierenden Wärmeübertrager hergestellt werden. Im Anschluss wird geprüft, inwieweit sich das Softwarepaket OpenFOAM zur Abbildung von Wärmesenken in Fließgewässern eignet.
On the electron to proton mass ratio and the proton structure

description: We derive an expression for the electron to nucleon mass ratio from a reinterpreted lattice gauge theory Hamiltonian to describe interior baryon dynamics. We use the classical electron radius as our fundamental length scale. Based on expansions on trigonometric Slater determinants for a neutral state a specific numerical result is found to be less than three percent off the experimental value for the neutron. Via the exterior derivative on the Lie group configuration space u(3) we derive approximate parameter free parton distribution functions that compare rather well with those for the u and d valence quarks of the proton.

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: machine learning
subject: feature selection
subject: imbalanced data

description: Everything in the modern world is being digitized and shifted to the Internet sphere, resulting in vast amounts of data. Hence, quicker transmission, robust processing systems and reduction of storage requirements are needed, making it desirable to reduce the number of features that are used as input when processing data. This, so-called feature selection process, is one of the most valuable steps of data preprocessing. A considerable amount of scientific literature portrays the feature selection process in an insufficient manner, and there is not a general agreement on the optimum technique for assuring high predictive performance and stability. In this work, we aim to disclose the best feature selection method for imbalanced data. We use three different ensemble models in combination with stability selection, a broadly applicable method that is expected to significantly improve the selection approach. Later, we compare the performance results with feature selection by neural networks. The experiments are performed on 11 different datasets from various domains in order to draw broad generalizations. To assess the final performance, we utilize three metrics and three different classifiers. We conclude our findings in terms of classification scores and discriminative power.Our results confirm that selecting features not only decreases storage requirements, but also improves classification scores. The method that delivers the best feature subsets in our experiments is stability selection with gradient boosting. The neural network approach, on the other hand, shows the best ability to distinguish between relevant and irrelevant features.

$Z_2$ index for gapless fermionic modes in the vortex core of three dimensional paired Dirac fermions

description: We consider the gapless modes along the vortex line of the fully gapped, momentum independent paired states of three-dimensional Dirac fermions. For this, we require the solution of fermion zero modes of the corresponding two-dimensional problem in the presence of a point vortex, in the plane perpendicular to the vortex line. Based on the spectral symmetry requirement for the existence of the zero mode, we identify the appropriate generalized Jackiw-Rossi Hamiltonians for different paired states. A four-dimensional generalized Jackiw-Rossi Hamiltonian possesses spectral symmetry with respect to an antiunitary operator, and gives rise to a single zero mode only for the {\em odd vorticity}, which is formally described by a $Z_2$ index. In the presence of generic perturbations such as chemical potential, Dirac mass, and Zeeman couplings, the associated two-dimensional problem for the odd parity topological superconducting state maps onto {\em two} copies of generalized Jackiw-Rossi Hamiltonian, and consequently an odd vortex binds two Majorana fermions. In contrast, there are no zero energy states for the topologically trivial $s$-wave superconductor in the presence of any chiral symmetry breaking perturbation in the particle-hole channel, such as regular Dirac mass. We show that the number of one-dimensional dispersive modes along the vortex line is also determined by the index of the associated two-dimensional problem. For an axial superfluid state in the presence of various perturbations, we discuss the consequences of the $Z_2$ index on the anomaly equations.

US IRBs confronting research in the developing world

description: Increasingly, US‐sponsored research is carried out in developing countries, but how US Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) approach the challenges they then face is unclear. METHODS: I conducted in‐depth interviews of about 2 hours each, with 46 IRB chairs, directors, administrators and members. I contacted the leadership of 60 IRBs in the United States (US) (every fourth one in the list of the top 240 institutions by National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding), and interviewed IRB leaders from 34 (55%). RESULTS: US IRBs face ethical and logistical challenges in interpreting and applying principles and regulations in developing countries, given economic and health disparities, and limited contextual knowledge. These IRBs perceive wide variations in developing world IRBs/RECs' quality, resources and training; and health systems in some countries may have long‐standing practices of corruption. These US IRBs often know little of local contexts, regulations and standards of care, and struggle with understandings of other cultures' differing views of autonomy, and risks and benefits of daily life. US IRBs thus face difficult decisions, including how to interpret principles, how much to pay subjects and how much sustainability to require from researchers. IRB responses and solutions include trying to maintain higher standards for developing world research, obtain cultural expertise, build IRB infrastructure abroad, communicate with foreign IRBs, and ‘negotiate’ for maximum benefits for participants and fearing ‘worst‐case scenarios’. CONCLUSIONS: US and foreign IRBs confront a series of tensions and dilemmas in reviewing developing world research. These data have important implications for increased education of IRBs/RECs and researchers in the US and abroad, and for research and practice.

description: Stem cell research has enormous potential to advance knowledge about many diseases but poses critical ethical issues. Many countries and U.S. states have developed policies concerning this area that over time will surely evolve, yet certain underlying ethical principles and tensions will no doubt continue to remain key. Overall, the basic ethical principles of autonomy, beneficence, nonmalfeasance, and justice are crucial but have been viewed, interpreted, and applied differently by policy makers and others. Controversies remain concerning what degree of respect eggs and embryos should receive; whether egg donors should be compensated, and if so, how much; what exactly to include in informed consent; and how to ensure appropriate oversight by institutional review boards and embryonic stem cell research oversight committees. This article addresses these areas and ways of approaching them, to adhere to important ethical principles, while helping to advance research that has the potential to help innumerable patients.

description: We show that for Jack parameter α= -(k+1)/(r-1), certain Jack polynomials studied by Feigin-Jimbo-Miwa-Mukhin vanish to order r when k+1 of the coordinates coincide. This result was conjectured by Bernevig and Haldane, who proposed that these Jack polynomials are model wavefunctions for fractional quantum Hall states. Special cases of these Jack polynomials include the wavefunctions of Laughlin and Read-Rezayi. In fact, along these lines we prove several vanishing theorems known as clustering properties for Jack polynomials in the mathematical physics literature, special cases of which had previously been conjectured by Bernevig and Haldane. Motivated by the method of proof, which in case r = 2 identifies the span of the relevant Jack polynomials with the S_n-invariant part of a unitary representation of the rational Cherednik algebra, we conjecture that unitary representations of the type A Cherednik algebra have graded minimal free resolutions of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand type; we prove this for the ideal of the (k+1)-equals arrangement in the case when the number of coordinates n is at most 2k+1. In general, our conjecture predicts the graded S_n-equivariant Betti numbers of the ideal of the (k+1)-equals arrangement with no restriction on the number of ambient dimensions.

description: Objectives: We investigated how often journal articles reporting on human HIV research in four developing world countries mention any institutional review boards (IRBs) or research ethics committees (RECs), and what factors are involved. Methods: We examined all such articles published in 2007 from India, Nigeria, Thailand and Uganda, and coded these for several ethical and other characteristics. Results: Of 221 articles meeting inclusion criteria, 32.1% did not mention IRB approval. Mention of IRB approval was associated with: biomedical (versus psychosocial) research (P = 0.001), more sponsor‐country authors (P = 0.003), sponsor‐country corresponding author (P = 0.047), mention of funding (P < 0.001), particular host‐country involved (P = 0.002), journals having sponsor‐country editors (P < 0.001), and journal stated compliance with International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) guidelines (P = 0.003). Logistic regression identified 3 significant factors: mention of funding, journal having sponsor‐country editors and research being biomedical. Conclusions: One‐third of articles still do not mention IRB approval. Mention varied by country, and was associated with biomedical research, and more sponsor country involvement. Recently, some journals have required mention of IRB approval, but allow authors to do so in cover letters to editors, not in the article itself. Instead, these data suggest, journals should require that articles document adherence to ethical standards.
On the mathematical treatment of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation
Creators: name: Jecko, Thierry
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Motivated by a paper by B.T. Sutcliffe and R.G. Woolley, we present the main ideas used by mathematicians to show the accuracy of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for molecules. Based on mathematical works on this approximation for molecular bound states, in scattering theory, in resonance theory, and for short time evolution, we give an overview of some rigourous results obtained up to now. We also point out the main difficulties mathematicians are trying to overcome and speculate on further developments. The mathematical approach does not fit exactly to the common use of the approximation in Physics and Chemistry. We criticize the latter and comment on the differences, contributing in this way to the discussion on the Born-Oppenheimer approximation initiated by B.T. Sutcliffe and R.G. Woolley. The paper neither contains mathematical statements nor proofs. Instead we try to make accessible mathematically rigourous results on the subject to researchers in Quantum Chemistry or Physics.

Should Life Insurers Have Access to Genetic Test Results?

description: Should life insurance companies have access to consumers’ genetic information? In deciding whether to sell life insurance policies and at what price, insurers routinely consider applicants’ risk factors, such as smoking and obesity. Should genetic information be excluded? The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) bars use of genetic information for health insurance underwriting decisions, but not for life, long-term care, or disability insurance. These questions have received occasional attention in the past but have become more salient with the rapidly decreasing cost and increasing use of predictive genetic testing. Individuals at risk for serious genetic diseases may fear loss of insurance coverage or higher rates and thus decline genetic testing that could improve disease prevention, early diagnosis, or treatment.

Spontaneous and resonant lifting of the spin blockade in nanowire quantum dots

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A complete numerical description of the charge and spin dynamics of a two-electron system confined in narrow nanowire quantum dots under oscillating electric field is presented in the context of recent electric dipole spin resonance experiments. We find that the spin-orbit coupling results in lifting the spin blockade by phonon mediated relaxation provided that the initially occupied state is close in energy to the ground state. This leads to suppression of the blockade from the triplet state with spins polarized parallel to the external magnetic field B. At higher B, after singlet-triplet ground-state transition a new channel for lifting the Pauli blockade opens which results in an appearance of additional resonance lines. The calculated signatures of this transition are consistent with recent experimental results [S. M. Frolov et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 236805 (2012)].
Evaluating pregnancy termination rates for fetal chromosome and single gene disorders
Creators: name: Herman, Madeline
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: The ability to detect genetic abnormalities prenatally has expanded in recent years to include a variety of diagnoses, including aneuploidy, copy number variants (CNVs), and single-gene disorders. The purpose of this study was to report on pregnancy termination rates following an abnormal prenatal diagnosis and to determine which factors may influence this decision. We conducted a retrospective chart review of 332 pregnancies diagnosed with a genetic abnormality from 2012-2023 and collected the type of prenatal diagnosis in addition to a variety of other factors. Data analysis consisted of multivariate logistic regression comparing each variable to the outcome of elective termination. In this study, the overall termination rate was 61.45%. Three variables remained strong predictors of elective termination: type of prenatal diagnosis, paternal race and/or ethnicity, and gestational age at diagnosis. This study adds to the literature on pregnancy termination rates following an abnormal prenatal diagnosis. Additionally, this expands our understanding of what other factors may influence the decision to terminate an affected pregnancy.
