Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2016

description: External auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma is a rare tumor with an annual incidence of one to six per one million inhabitants.  This is an aggressive disease, therefore, an early detection has an important impact on prognosis. However, since many patients present with non-specific signs of chronic ear inflammation, the diagnosis is often delayed.

A 50-year-old male with a past medical history of diabetes admitted to our emergency department with a 3-month history of left-sided otalgia associated serosanguineous ear discharge, resistant to treatment with ciprofloxacin and topic ofloxacin and neomycin. Physical examination revealed granulation tissue occupying the left external auditory canal, with infected ear discharge. Ipsilateral facial swelling and left temporomandibular pain was also observed. Left ear biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma.

Computed tomography and Magnetic resonance imaging of the head, revealed a soft tissue mass occupying the left ear canal with bony destructive changes of the anterior wall, left tympanic space and mastoid cells. Invasion of the ipsilateral parotid gland was also observed. Due to the extensive spread of his tumor (TNM stage T4N2bM0), the patient was transferred to the Portuguese Institute of Oncology where he was submitted to petrosectomy with parotidectomy, mandibulectomy, and homolateral neck dissection, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

description: We consider scattering of small-amplitude dispersive waves at an intense optical soliton which constitutes a nonlinear perturbation of the refractive index. Specifically, we consider a single-mode optical fiber and a group velocity matched pair: an optical soliton and a nearly perfectly reflected dispersive wave, a fiber-optical analogue of the event horizon. By combining (i) an adiabatic approach that is used in soliton perturbation theory and (ii) scattering theory from Quantum Mechanics, we give a quantitative account for the evolution of all soliton parameters. In particular, we quantify the increase in the soliton peak power that may result in spontaneous appearance of an extremely large, so-called champion soliton. The presented adiabatic theory agrees well with the numerical solutions of the pulse propagation equation. Moreover, for the first time we predict the full frequency band of the scattered dispersive waves and explain an emerging caustic structure in the space-time domain.

description: A hierarchy of 1 (time) + 1 (space) dimensional first-order partial differential equation (traveling wave) models is used for a description of dynamics in individual semiconductor lasers, various multisection semiconductor lasers, and coupled laser systems. Consequent modifications of the basic traveling wave model allow for taking into account different physical effects such as the gain dispersion, the thermal detuning, the spatial hole burning of carriers, the nonlinear gain saturation, or various carrier exchange processes in quantum dot lasers.  For illustration, the model was applied for simulations of dynamics in complex ring laser with four branches of filtered feedback. Finally, several advanced techniques for model analysis such as calculation of instantaneous optical modes, finding of steady states, and numerical continuation and bifurcation analysis of the model equations were discussed and illustrated by example simulations.

description: Consider a class of planar autonomous differential systems with cylindric phase space which represent generalized pendulum equations. We describe a method to construct such systems with prescribed maximum number of limit cycles which are not contractible to a point (limit cycles of the second kind). The underlying idea consists in employing Dulac-Cherkas functions. We also show how this approach can be used to control the bifurcation of multiple limit cycles.

Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Racial Sorting
subject: School Choice

description: Alternative schools of choice such as private, charter, and magnet schools introduce unique market elements into the public provision of education. In this paper, I study the response of traditional (elementary / high) schools to the competition from newly emerged schools of choice in California between 1999-2015. Using rich administrative data from the CDE and the NCES, I create a longitudinal statewide dataset that allows me to track the number of new alternative local schools of choice as well as school level data on the enrollments of students by race: White, Hispanic, African American, Asian/Pacific Islander and American Indian/Alaska Native students. I employ triple-difference design that uses between grade variation in openings of alternative schools of choice to examine the causal effect of alternative schools of choice on the racial sorting in school systems. The analysis suggests that charter schools decrease, while the magnet schools increase the racial segregation in the school district.

description: Die Obere Felszone der Pfalz wird nach den darin enthaltenen frühdiagenetischen Kugelbildungen (vgl. dazu Dittrich 2016) oft auch Kugelfelszone genannt. Sie kann Äquivalente der Detfurth- und der Hardegsen-Formation umfassen (s4-und s5-Folge). Mehrere Meter mächtige fluviatile sandige Detfurth-Äquivalente mit einer konglomeratischen Basis beschränken sich auf strukturtiefe Profile in ehemaligen linksrheinischen Trogachsen. Durch die D-Diskordanz wurden die oberen Abschnitte der Volpriehausen-Formation (s3-Folge) gekappt, transportiert und resedimentiert. Es handelte sich um proximale Äquivalente der Aviculaschichten. Hardegsen- Äquivalente, oft mit Kugelbildungen, sind durch eine regionale Erosionsdiskordanz abgetrennt. In vollständigeren Trogachsenprofilen erscheint eine eher konkordante Diskontinuitätsfläche s4/s5. Durch die inzwischen vorliegende deutsche Buntsandstein-Synopsis (DSK 2013) wurde die stratigraphische Bewertung zahlreicher neu erhobener Befunde im pfälzischen Randbecken unterstützt. Für die s4/s5-Diskordanz ist anstelle des fehlerbehafteten neuen Begriffs „Trulbe-Diskordanz" der Name „Harsberg-Diskordanz7/ vorzuziehen.
description: Abstract: The palatinian stratigraphic unit Obere Felszone is sometimes called Kugelfelszone. This refers to ball structures that have formed during early diagenesis (compare Dittrich 2016). This unit can comprise equivalents of s4 and s5 (Detfurth and Hardegsen Formation). Several meters thick fluvial sandstones with a basal conglomerate (Detfurth Formation) are restricted to structurally controled old trough positions. Connected with the D-discordance the upper parts of the Volpriehausen Formation were cut, transported and resedimented. They had represented proximal equivalents of the Avicula beds. Equivalents of s5, offen with ball structures, overlie a regional erosional discordance. Profiles of subsiding areas show a nearly concordant discontinuity surface instead. The now available synopsis of the german Buntsandstein (DSK 2013) supported the stratigraphical interpretation of several new geological data concerning the palatinian marginal part of the basin. For the s4/s5 discordance („Trulbe discordance" in DSK 2013) the more correct name „Harsberg discordance" is proposed here.

description: Amino acyl-tRNA synthetases perform diverse non-canonical functions aside from their essential role in charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acid. The phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (PheRS/FARS) is an α2β2 tetramer that is needed for charging the tRNAPhe for its translation activity. Fragments of the α-subunit have been shown to display an additional, translation-independent, function that activates growth and proliferation and counteracts Notch signalling. Here we show in Drosophila that overexpressing the β-subunit in the context of the complete PheRS leads to larval roaming, food avoidance, slow growth, and a developmental delay that can last several days and even prevents pupation. These behavioural and developmental phenotypes are induced by PheRS expression in CCHa2+ and Pros+ cells. Simultaneous expression of β-PheRS, α-PheRS, and the appetite-inducing CCHa2 peptide rescued these phenotypes, linking this β-PheRS activity to the appetite-controlling pathway. The fragmentation dynamic of the excessive β-PheRS points to β-PheRS fragments as possible candidate inducers of these phenotypes. Because fragmentation of human FARS has also been observed in human cells and mutations in human β-PheRS (FARSB) can lead to problems in gaining weight, Drosophila β-PheRS can also serve as a model for the human phenotype and possibly also for obesity.

description: The aim of this paper is to classify certain types of weather developments that arise in the region east of the Rocky Mountains in Southern Canada, Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado, and to correlate their frequency and intensity with various factors which seem most important in their development.
After discussing briefly the importance of the Rocky Mountain chain as an air mass boundary, synoptic situations most favorable for fronto- and cyclogenesis are illustrated. The variation of these favorable situations with season is then compared with the frequency of occurrence of the several types of developments which they produce.
The dates of initial eastward movement of secondary cyclone developments are correlated with dates of peaks in 14,000-foot pressure over the region. The influence of such wave developments on the buildup and dissipation of the Polar Canadian (Pc) high is studied.
Finally, a table of departure from normal temperatures is given for certain East Slope stations, during foehn wind frontogenesis.

description: The drugs mifepristone and rapamycin were compared for their relative ability to increase the life span of mated female Drosophila melanogaster. Titration of rapamycin indicated an optimal concentration of approximately 50 μM, which increased median life span here by average +81%. Meta-analysis of previous mifepristone titrations indicated an optimal concentration of approximately 466 μM, which increased median life span here by average +114%. Combining mifepristone with various concentrations of rapamycin did not produce further increases in life span, and instead reduced life span relative to either drug alone. Assay of maximum midgut diameter indicated that rapamycin was equally efficacious as mifepristone in reducing mating-induced midgut hypertrophy. The mito-QC mitophagy reporter is a previously described green fluorescent protein (GFP)–mCherry fusion protein targeted to the outer mitochondrial membrane. Inhibition of GFP fluorescence by the acidic environment of the autophagolysosome yields an increased red/green fluorescence ratio indicative of increased mitophagy. Creation of a multi-copy mito-QC reporter strain facilitated assay in live adult flies, as well as in dissected midgut tissue. Mifepristone was equally efficacious as rapamycin in activating the mito-QC mitophagy reporter in the adult female fat-body and midgut. The data suggest that mifepristone and rapamycin act through a common pathway to increase mated female Drosophila life span, and implicate increased mitophagy and decreased midgut hypertrophy in that pathway.

description: Questo articolo contribuisce al dibattito sull’importanza e sull’affidabilità del fair value per l’informativa finanziaria, con particolare attenzione alla misurazione e alla rilevazione dei derivati nella contabilità del settore pubblico. La Commissione Europea ha sostenuto che i requisiti degli IPSAS per gli strumenti finanziari derivati non sono adatti ai Paesi che utilizzano la contabilità finanziaria, poiché la contabilizzazione al fair value è considerata complessa e problematica. In aggiunta, l’implementazione dell’hedge accounting potrebbe portare a un’interpretazione errata della posizione finanziaria degli Enti locali. Nel documento, gli IPSAS sono confrontati con i principi contabili italiani per le Regioni e gli Enti locali, i quali non prevedono il riconoscimento del fair value dei derivati nel bilancio. Il confronto di questi diversi approcci offre la possibilità di individuare alcune questioni critiche che un insieme comune di principi contabili europei e internazionali dovrebbe risolvere.

By focusing on the relatively unexplored aspects of derivatives measurement and recognition in public-sector accounting, the article contributes to the debate on the relevance and reliability of fair value for financial reporting for derivatives. European Commission believes the IPSAS requirements for financial derivatives are not suitable for countries that apply a nominal value basis because accounting at fair value is considered complex and problematic. Besides, using hedge accounting leads to misinterpretation of the government's financial position. In the paper, the IPSASs are compared to the Italian accounting standards for local governments which do not necessarily recognise the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. It is intended to contribute to theory and practice by exploring some critical issues that a common set of European and international accounting standards should consider.

description: Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing recodes the genome and confers flexibility for the organisms to adapt to the environment. It is believed that RNA recoding sites are well suited for facilitating adaptive evolution by increasing the proteomic diversity in a temporal-spatial manner. The function and essentiality of a few conserved recoding sites are recognized. However, the experimentally discovered functional sites only make up a small corner of the total sites, and there is still the need to expand the repertoire of such functional sites with bioinformatic approaches. In this study, we define a new category of RNA editing sites termed ‘conserved editing with non-conserved recoding’ and systematically identify such sites in Drosophila editomes, figuring out their selection pressure and signals of adaptation at inter-species and intra-species levels. Surprisingly, conserved editing sites with non-conserved recoding are not suppressed and are even slightly overrepresented in Drosophila. DNA mutations leading to such cases are also favoured during evolution, suggesting that the function of those recoding events in different species might be diverged, specialized, and maintained. Finally, structural prediction suggests that such recoding in potassium channel Shab might increase ion permeability and compensate the effect of low temperature. In conclusion, conserved editing with non-conserved recoding might be functional as well. Our study provides novel aspects in considering the adaptive evolution of RNA editing sites and meanwhile expands the candidates of functional recoding sites for future validation.

description: Public transportation plays a crucial role in urban mobility, yet challenges such as service reliability, affordability, safety, and comfort continue to impact customer satisfaction in Nigeria. This study empirically examined the determinants of customer satisfaction in Nigerian public transportation, focusing on service reliability, affordability, safety, comfort, and overall service quality. Using a quantitative survey research design, data was collected from 372 respondents across four major cities: Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Kano. The study employed simple regression analysis, one-way ANOVA, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze the relationships between key service factors and customer satisfaction. Findings revealed that all five factors significantly influence customer satisfaction, with service quality emerging as the strongest predictor. From the results, recommendations were made, highlighting the need for policy interventions, including real-time tracking systems, fare subsidies, stricter safety regulations, improved vehicle maintenance, and public transport monitoring frameworks. It was concluded that optimizing these service attributes can enhance commuter experiences and promote a more efficient, sustainable, and user-friendly public transportation system in Nigeria

description: CRYSTALS-Kyber has been standardized as the only key-encapsulation mechanism (KEM) scheme by NIST to withstand attacks by large-scale quantum computers. However, the side-channel attacks (SCAs) on its implementation are still needed to be well considered for the upcoming migration. In this brief, we propose a secure and efficient hardware implementation for Kyber by incorporating a novel compact shuffling architecture. First of all, we modify the Fisher-Yates shuffle to make it more hardware-friendly. We then design an optimized shuffling architecture for the well-known open-source Kyber hardware implementation to enhance the security of all known and potential side-channel leakage points. Finally, we implement the modified Kyber design on FPGA and evaluate its security and performance. The security is verified by conducting correlation power analysis (CPA) and test vector leakage assessment (TVLA) on the hardware. Meanwhile, FPGA place-and-route results show that the proposed design reports only 8.7% degradation on the hardware efficiency compared with the original unprotected version, much better than existing hardware hiding schemes.

description: Talaromycosis, caused by Talaromyces marneffei (T. marneffei, formerly known as Penicillium marneffei), is an opportunistic invasive mycosis endemic in tropical and subtropical areas of Asia with high mortality rate. Despite various infection models established to study the immunological interaction between T. marneffei and the host, the pathogenicity of this fungus is not yet fully understood. So far, Drosophila melanogaster, a well-established genetic model organism to study innate immunity, has not been used in related research on T. marneffei. In this study, we provide the initial characterization of a systemic infection model of T. marneffei in the D. melanogaster host. Survival curves and fungal loads were tested as well as Toll pathway activation was quantified by RT-qPCR of several antimicrobial peptide (AMP) genes including Drosomycin, Metchnikowin, and Bomanin Short 1. We discovered that whereas most wild-type flies were able to overcome the infection, MyD88 or Toll mutant flies failed to prevent fungal dissemination and proliferation and ultimately succumbed to this challenge. Unexpectedly, the induction of classical Toll pathway activation readouts, Drosomycin and Bomanin Short 1, by live or killed T. marneffei was quite limited in wild-type flies, suggesting that the fungus largely escapes detection by the systemic immune system. This unusual situation of a poor systemic activation of the Toll pathway and a strong susceptibility phenotype of MyD88/Toll might be accounted for by a requirement for this host defence in only specific tissues, a hypothesis that remains to be rigorously tested.

description: Herdflächenlösungen stellen Bruchflächen von Scherbrüchen geometrisch im Raum dar und werden aus den Polaritäten von Erdbebenwellen bestimmt. Einige der induzierten Mikroerdbeben im Bereich Landau und Insheim in der Südpfalz, die sich seit 2006 ereignen, wurden mit ausreichendem Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis an genügend vielen Messstationen beobachtet, um Herdflächenlösungen berechnen zu können. Diese Lösungen können unter Einbeziehung von Relativlokalisierungen und bekannten tektonischen Strukturen als bevorzugt nordnordwest-südsüdost (NNWSSo) streichende Scherbrüche interpretiert werden. Die Scherbrüche haben meist einen Abschiebungsmechanismus mit einer dextralen Blattverschiebungskomponente, deren Anteil variiert. Die untersuchten Erdbeben werden durch Fluidinjektion erklärt, welche die Scherfestigkeit präexistenter Strukturelemente der Rheingrabenbildung reduziert und diese alten Bruchflächen reaktiviert haben.
description: Abstract: In the region of Landau and Insheim, Central upper Rhine Graben, SW Germany, micro-earthquakes occur since spring 2006 due to fluid injection in the uppermost crust. These events provide important information on the structures and state of stress at depth. Here we determine fault plane solutions of the micro-earthquakes in order to understand the rupture mechanisms and stress relations at depths. Together with the relative locations of the hypocentres a prevailing NNW-SSE striking normal faulting regime is found which has a variable minor dextral strike-slip component. This result can be well explained with existing NNW-SSE striking faults which were formed during the opening of the upper Rhine Graben. These faults are reac - tivated by the fluid injection which most probably reduces the normal stress on the faults due to the fluid pressure at depth.

description: To prioritize critical loads and enhance microgrid energy management efficiency, this study introduces a method that combines consumer segmentation optimization and dynamic time intervals. A penalty-based approach is used to minimize unmet load demands, prioritizing energy for critical loads. A joint classification model for multi-type consumers is developed using a convolutional neural network autoencoder and hierarchical clustering. Dynamic time intervals are applied to reduce iterations and improve memory and processor efficiency in solving the energy management model. Simulation tests on a microgrid with distributed generation, battery storage, and consumption units confirm the method’s effectiveness. Results show that configuring dynamic time intervals and segmenting loads by priority yield solutions similar to fixed interval methods. Finally, the energy optimization management effects of the proposed method were compared with those of two latest methods. The comparison results demonstrate that if a microgrid underwent four different disconnection scenarios from the main distribution network, the proposed method saves 23.15%, 23.08%, 23.79%, and 34.61% time to achieve energy optimization management compared with that of the first latest method, and 24.20%, 23.87%, 25.11%, and 36.18% time than that of the second latest method.
