Shortening length of stay in the public hospitals of the Northern Territory
Creators: name: Xiao, Jianguo
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 1998

description: In shortening length of stay (LOS) in the public hospitals, there is a need to examine the trends of its changes and its influencing factors. This thesis explores most suitable modelling approaches for linking LOS and its influencing factors. It also discusses the relationship between LOS and Casemix funding. In order to understand the relative importance of factors influencing LOS, a Delphi evaluation was conducted through interviewing health care practitioners. Six important, 48 significant and four not important determinants of LOS were identified. The relationship among these factors and the implications of this evaluation were explored. Two modelling methods, namely a holistic approach and mixture distribution analysis, and their applications were discussed. In the holistic approach proposed, firstly, the underlying distribution of LOS should be determined. Secondly, based on the determined distribution, a discordancy test trimming method could be applied to determine the trim points. This procedure would assist in distinguishing the inliers from the outliers. Thirdly, since normality of the distribution might not be attained simply by transforming LOS, appropriate regression models such as a gamma regression model should be required to reflect the relationship between LOS and its influencing factors. This would provide insights into the different effects of influencing factors between inliers and outliers. It would also help prescribe appropriate policy measures to reduce LOS. The holistic approach was useful in simultaneously identifying the appropriate underlying influencing factors of LOS and determining trim points for funding purposes. As an alternative way of modelling LOS and its influencing factors, mixture distribution analysis was found to he able to confirm the homogeneity of certain Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs). It could also reveal the heterogeneous patterns of other DRGs. For those DRGs exhibiting heterogeneity in LOS, related socio-economic factors influencing LOS were compared and contrasted between components by Poisson mixture regressions. Such an analysis provided an integrated framework to link funding with relevant influencing factors of LOS. A Poisson mixture regression model could give useful insights for state health institutions to initiate efficient Casemix payments. It could also benefit hospital managers and clinicians to manage LOS effectively. An evaluation of the effects of Casemix funding on LOS and other relevant hospital performance measures was presented. Some evidence of the influence of Casemix funding on LOS and other hospital performance indicators since the implementation was been identified. The implications of the study in shortening LOS and promoting the efficiency of hospital management were discussed. A summary of the conclusions in terms of the shortening LOS in the public hospitals of the Northern Territory was presented, and further research topics were discussed.

description: We measure the absolute photon efficiency of the Liverpool Telescope using observations of photometric standard stars and a throughput model of the IO:O instrument. Over a period of one year following mirror re-coating the telescope transmission is in the range 73--79% over 4000-10000 Angstroms. Transmission in the u'-band (~3500 Angstroms) is slightly lower at 65%. Immediately following mirror re-coating the throughput is shown to be consistent within 4% to predictions for two reflections from bare-aluminium-coated optics. The telescope throughput (two reflections) degrades at a rate ~0.0002 mag/day. Also presented are the effective wavelengths and widths for the u',g',r',i',z',B,V broad-band filters, taking into account all optical components of the system.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Socrates, renowned for his wisdom, is often credited as one of the founders of modern pedagogy. One of the chief reasons for this reputation comes from Socrates’ approach to teaching. Whereas his contemporaries – Sophists – taught didactically, aiming to convince others of their opinions on issues, Socrates preferred a more integrative approach, engaging in discourse that was divest from his own personal opinions, and involving inquiries from multiple perspectives. Over centuries, scholars like Rousseau, Montessori, and Vygotsky have debated the impact of different teaching styles on students, overlooking the impact that teaching others might actually have on the teachers themselves. For example, how do people spontaneously reason when asked to teach others? Are humans intuitive Sophists or Socrateans? What factors influence people’s reasoning when teaching others? Here we investigate these questions across two experiments by asking people to explain contentious political issues to less knowledgeable others. Study 1 took place during the 2012 U.S. presidential elections, demonstrating that adopting a teaching mindset, compared to deliberating on the political issue (control condition) encourages a reasoning style that aligns with Socratic ideals – i.e., reasoning that acknowledges and integrates diverse perspectives (inclusive reasoning from here on). A pre-registered Study 2 conducted during the 2016 U.S. presidential elections demonstrates that adopting a teaching mindset also results in more inclusive reasoning, compared to explaining the same issue to a peer (control condition). Furthermore, Study 2 highlights that low self-investment, together with high generative motivations (i.e., a desire to nurture and guide others) functions as an underlying mechanism for promoting more inclusive reasoning. Additional tests ruled out other cognitive, affective, and motivational processes as potential mechanisms.

description: Bon Pastor is a neighbourhood located north of Barcelona that since the beginning 2000s, has undergone an important process of urban and social transformation. They wedged the neighbourhood between several industrial estates, with large plots awaiting transformation processes. One of them was La Maquinista which transformed the industrial site into a shopping centre and a residential complex with nearly 2,000 inhabitants, now to be expanded with the construction of 500 more homes. Right now, the turn has come for the Mercedes-Benz site, where it is intended to build 1,450 homes and introduce industrial 4.0 activities. Both operations mean an increase of up to 5,000 people, breaking the population balance between the ‘old Bon Pastor’ (a neighbourhood with origins in the 1920s) and the ‘New Bon Pastor’ labelled as ‘A new district of Barcelona’ by the press. In parallel, the 'old Bon Pastor' suffered a residential transformation promoted by the neighbours with a substitution of a group of social houses built in 1929 for new sustainable housing. New residents suppose a rupture in the economic and social structure of the neighbourhood given the difference in income already existing today, which places the old neighbourhood in a zone of vulnerability.

Publisher: name: Stockholm University

Subjects: Macroeconomics (incl. monetary and fiscal theory)

description: We propose a new method for computing equilibria in heterogeneous-agent models with aggregate uncertainty. The idea relies on an assumption that linearization offers a good approximation; we share this assumption with existing linearization methods. However, unlike those methods, the approach here does not rely on direct derivation of first-order Taylor terms. It also does not use recursive methods, whereby aggregates and prices would be expressed as linear functions of the state, usually a very high-dimensional object (such as the wealth distribution). Rather, we rely merely on solving nonlinearly for a deterministic transition path: we study the equilibrium response to a single, small “MIT shock” carefully. We then regard this impulse response path as a numerical derivative in sequence space and hence provide our linearized solution directly using this path. The method can easily be extended to the case of many shocks and computation time rises linearly in the number of shocks. We also propose a set of checks on whether linearization is a good approximation. We assert that our method is the simplest and most transparent linearization technique among currently known methods. The key numerical tool required to implement it is value-function iteration, using a very limited set of state variables.

description: Background: Kidney dysfunction (KD) has been associated with increased risk for major bleeding (MB) in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and may be in part related to an underuse of evidence-based therapies. Our aim was to assess the predictive ability of the Can Rapid risk stratification of Unstable angina patients Suppress ADverse outcomes with Early implementation of the ACC/AHA guidelines (CRUSADE) risk score in patients with concomitant ACS and chronic kidney disease. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of a prospective registry including 1,587 ACS patients. In-hospital MB was prospectively recorded according to the CRUSADE and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria. KD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Results: The predictive ability of the CRUSADE risk score was assessed by discrimination and calibration analyses. A total of 465 (29%) subjects had KD. In multivariate logistic regression analyses, we found high CRUSADE risk score values to be associated with a higher rate of in-hospital MB; however, among patients with KD, it was not associated with BARC MB. Regardless of the MB definition, the predictive ability of the CRUSADE score in patients with KD was lower: area under the curve (AUC) 0.71 versus 0.79, p = 0.03 for CRUSADE MB and AUC 0.65 versus 0.75, p = 0.02 for BARC MB. Hosmer-Lemeshow analyses showed a good calibration in all renal function subgroups for both MB definitions (all p values >0.3). Conclusions: The CRUSADE risk score shows a lower accuracy for predicting in-hospital MB in KD patients compared to those without KD.

description: This study examines prosody in read productions of two published narratives by 15 Russian speakers. Two distinct sources of variation in acoustic-prosodic expression are considered: structural and referent-based. Structural effects refer to the particular linearization of words in a sentence or phrase. Referent-based effects relate to the semantic and pragmatic characteristics of the discourse referent of a word, and to grammatical roles that are partially dependent on referent characteristics. Here, we examine referent animacy and the related grammatical function of subjecthood, and the relative accessibility or information status of a word. We document patterns of prosodic augmentation and prosodic reduction due to structural and referent-based factors, as evident from change in values of acoustic-prosodic measures mean intensity, duration and f0 range. Prosodic augmentation due to structural effects is observed for words positioned ex-situ, independent of their semantic, grammatical or pragmatic features. Prosodic augmentation due to referent-based effects is observed for words that are grammatical subjects with animate referents. Prosodic expression is further affected by referent information status. Discourse-given and discourse-new information show greater prosodic augmentation than inferable information. A closer look at individual speakers' production styles reveals that structural and referent-based variations occur in combination and interact.

title: The role of high mobility group of nucleosome binding proteins in stem cell biology and differentiation

description: The high mobility group of nucleosome binding proteins (HMGNs) are chromatin architectural proteins that bind specifically to nucleosomes and influence chromatin structure and DNA-dependent functions. However, the mechanisms underlying these events remain largely unknown. HMGN1 and HMGN2 are highly expressed by embryonic stem cells and are downregulated as differentiation proceeds. Nevertheless, embryonic and adult neural stem cells retain elevated levels of these proteins. Chromatin plasticity is essential for the pluri- and multipotency of stem cells and it is achieved by maintaining an open and dynamic chromatin conformation. Conversely, developmental potential seems to be restricted by chromatin condensation. The present work shows that loss of HMGN1 or HMGN2 in pluripotent embryonal carcinoma cells leads to increased spontaneous neuronal differentiation, which is accompanied by a reduction in pluripotency markers and higher gene expression of lineage-specific transcription factors. Inhibition of signalling pathways relevant for neurogenesis does not re-establish the phenotype observed in Hmgn2-knockout cells. Withdrawal of the factors sustaining pluripotency in embryonal carcinoma cells results in higher induction of pro-neural factors in cells lacking HMGN1 or HMGN2. Neural stem cells derived from Hmgn-knockout cells also display higher gene expression of pro-neural transcription factors and increased spontaneous neuronal differentiation. Loss of HMGN2 disrupts the active histone modification landscape, and therefore affects the chromatin structure at local and global levels. The proposition is that the local changes directly influence the transcription rates of pluripotency and lineage-specific transcription factors, while the global changes may restrict chromatin plasticity. The present data support a hypothesis whereby HMGNs contribute to the chromatin plasticity of stem cells by promoting an active histone modification landscape and open chromatin conformation, which are essential for preserving the self-renewal and developmental potential of stem cells.

description: This study was aimed at analyzing empirical duration data for Polish spoken at different tempos using an updated version of the Coupled Oscillator Model of speech timing and rhythm variability (O'Dell and Nieminen, 1999, 2009). We use Bayesian inference on parameters relating to speech rate to investigate how tempo affects timing in Polish. The model parameters found are then compared with parameters obtained for equivalent material in Finnish to shed light on which of the effects represent general speech rate mechanisms and which are specific to Polish. We discuss the model and its predictions in the context of current perspectives on speech timing.

description: The lethal and sublethal effects of insecticide treatment have been widely tested on the Earth buff-tailed bumblebee, Bombus terrestris. However, free-living and open-field pollinators are not exclusively exposed to insecticides but also to herbicides. Topical spraying has been designed to simulate the pollinator's exposure to spray-applied Plant Protection Products (PPPs). In the present study, several herbicides were sprayed on specially designed R&D colonies to investigate the single treatment effect of Maximum Field Recommended Concentrations on these insects' most im-portant toxicological and ecological parameters (colony development, mortality of mother queen, development of gynes). The application of widely used herbicides, such as glyphosate, fluazifop-P-butyl and glufosinate ammonium or herbicide mixes, such as 2,4-D with glyphosate or fluroxypyr with florasulam caused a range of effects to the colonies, from reduced to high mortality on mother queens and adults to the complete death of the colony. In the latter case, a sequential dilution testing scheme is followed to point to a safer field concentration. Considering the severity of this lab study, recommendations for the safe application of the here-tested herbicides are proposed.

description: This thesis investigates the views of English social workers and child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS) clinicians about how social workers use the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) with looked after children. Focus groups and semi structured interviews (conducted 2011 - 2013) examined social workers’ (n = 58, from nine local authorities) understandings of the mental health needs of looked after children and their use of the SDQ in assessing this, as well as how CAMHS clinicians (n = 24, from 11 Health Trusts) viewed the role of social workers in appropriately assessing mental health problems. Normalisation Process Theory was used to appraise how the SDQ had been routinely operationalised in everyday social work practice. A case study of one local authority explored the working practices of looked after children’s social workers and specialist CAMHS clinicians working in a co-located (high integration) service which had achieved consistently high annual SDQ returns over a number of years. The study found most social workers were not aware of the SDQ scores of the children or young people they were allocated and did not know how to interpret it in terms of looked after children’s mental health. Routinely collected SDQ data on looked after children who had been in care for a year or longer was not utilised by most of the social workers or the local authorities which collected it. Specialist CAMHS used the SDQ alongside social workers in only two local authorities. Level of integration (based on degree of co-location of social workers and CAMHS) did not appear to be associated with social workers’ SDQ use. Detailed examination of one local authority showed that although it contained a highly integrated service and was the best in the country at getting completed SDQ forms returned from foster carers, having a robust process for data collection was not enough to ensure the SDQ was integrated within social work practice in the organisation. Given challenges to local authority budgets and services, any recommendations to improve current practice must be mindful of resource implications. Better utilisation could therefore be made of existing local authority processes and resources to embed the SDQ into routine practice. A multi-agency approach remains critical to establish the routinised usage of the SDQ. This has the potential to benefit all agencies and most importantly, looked after children.
title: Regulatory T cells shape the CD4 T cell response to Salmonella

description: FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) play an important role in controlling inflammation and maintaining homeostasis at mucosal sites. Tregs may also limit immunopathology during infection but their role in this context remains poorly understood. CD4 T helper (Th) cells are important drivers of immune responses and can express master transcription factors (TFs) including T-bet, GATA3 and RORγT, which identify Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells, respectively. Tregs can also express these TFs, and recent research suggests that Tregs expressing master TFs may be able to selectively suppress their corresponding Th subsets. T-bet+ Tregs have been shown to selectively target Th1 cells in some contexts, but it is unclear whether the same dynamic occurs with Tregs expressing other TFs. It is also unclear whether selective suppression can influence the overall CD4 T cell bias during infection. To address these questions, an infection model using Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium (STM) was developed to induce non-lethal colitis. This allowed STM-specific and polyclonal CD4 T cells to be tracked in multiple tissues. Using this model, a dynamic and site-specific CD4 T cell response was revealed. An early and transient colonic Th17 response was followed by a sustained Th1 bias. This Th response develops in parallel with an early increase in the proportion of T-bet+ Tregs and a later increase in the proportion of RORγT+ Tregs. This reciprocal dynamic between Th subsets and Tregs expressing the same TF is consistent with the hypothesis that specific populations of Tregs selectively suppress Th subsets. To determine if Tregs are required for the dynamic Th bias, Treg depletion experiments were carried out at different timepoints. Results show that Tregs are essential for both the early Th17 response and the later Th1 response. Together, these results support the hypothesis that Tregs shape the dynamic Th bias by selective suppression. Further research is needed to address what mechanism might drive this targeted regulation. This research shows the potential for Tregs to not just inhibit the overall T cell response, but to actively shape Th bias. This highlights the potential for Tregs expressing specific TFs to be used in targeted therapeutic approaches. Further work is warranted to improve our basic understanding of how Tregs shape immunity and to develop appropriate clinical applications.

description: Methane oxidation over Pd–Pt/ model catalysts calcined at three different conditions is investigated using operando diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy while cycling the feed gas stoichiometry between lean (net-oxidising) and rich (net-reducing) conditions. When calcined in air, alloy Pd–Pt nanoparticles are present only on catalysts subjected to elevated temperature () whereas calcination at lower temperature (500 ) leads to segregated Pt and Pd nanoparticles on the support. Here, we show that the alloy Pd–Pt nanoparticles undergo reversible changes in surface structure and composition during transient methane oxidation exposing a PdO surface during lean conditions and a metallic Pd–Pt surface (Pd enriched) under rich conditions. Alloyed particles seem more active for methane oxidation than their monometallic counterparts and, furthermore, an increased activity for methane oxidation is clearly observed under lean conditions when PdO has developed on the surface, analogous to monometallic Pd catalysts. Upon introducing rich conditions, partial oxidation of methane dominates over total oxidation forming adsorbed carbonyls on the noble metal particles. The carbonyl spectra for the three samples show clear differences originating from different surfaces exposed by alloyed vs. non-alloyed particles. The kinetics of the noble metal oxidation and reduction processes as well as carbonyl formation during transient methane oxidation are discussed.
Decision Making and Intelligence

description: If you are smart, do you make good decisions? Most people believe the answer to this question is yes, but a growing body of literature suggests that intelligence and decision-making are different skills and just because you are intelligent does not necessarily imply you also make good decisions. To test this hypothesis, my research seeks to determine the brain regions which work in tandem and which work separately in these cognitive processes by examining both structural and functional connectivity of the brain. Decision-making was assessed through the Adult Decision Making Competence battery (A-DMC), which comprised six types of decision making. Both fluid and crystallized intelligence were assessed through three different tests. A graph theory metric, small world propensity, was used to characterize both functional and structural images of the brain. We implemented principal component analysis in R to identify factors of intelligence and decision making. We then correlated those factors with the small world propensity measure of structural and functional connectivity. Preliminary results provide evidence for an overlap between the brain regions involved in decision making and intelligence, but there is also evidence for brain regions which are distinct in these cognitive processes. 
Supporting figures from Vine tendrils use contact chemoreception to avoid conspecific leaves

description: Movement and growth habit of climbing plants have attracted attention since the time of Charles Darwin; however, there are no reports on whether plants can choose suitable hosts or avoid unsuitable ones based on chemoreception. Here, I show that the tendrils of Cayratia japonica (Vitaceae) appear to avoid conspecific leaves using contact chemoreception for oxalates, which are highly concentrated in C. japonica leaves. The coiling experiments show that C. japonica has a flexible plastic response to avoid coiling around conspecific leaves. The coiling response is negatively correlated with the oxalate content in the contacted leaves. Experiments using laboratory chemicals indicate that the tendrils avoid oxalate-coated plastic sticks. These results indicate that the tendrils of C. japonica avoid coiling around a conspecific leaf based on contact chemoreception for oxalate compounds. The tendrils of climbing plants may function as a chemoreceptor system to detect the chemical cues of a contacted plant.

description: Across species, oxytocin, an evolutionary ancient neuropeptide, facilitates social communication by attuning individuals to conspecifics' social signals, fostering trust and bonding. The eyes have an important signalling function and humans use their salient and communicative eyes to intentionally and unintentionally send social signals to others, by contracting the muscles around their eyes and pupils. In our earlier research, we observed that interaction partners with dilating pupils are trusted more than partners with constricting pupils. But over and beyond this effect, we found that the pupil sizes of partners synchronize and that when pupils synchronously dilate, trust is further boosted. Critically, this linkage between mimicry and trust was bound to interactions between ingroup members. The current study investigates whether these findings are modulated by oxytocin and sex of participant and partner. Using incentivized trust games with partners from ingroup and outgroup whose pupils dilated, remained static, or constricted, this study replicates our earlier findings. It further reveals that (i) male participants withhold trust from partners with constricting pupils and extend trust to partners with dilating pupils, especially when given oxytocin rather than placebo; (ii) female participants trust partners with dilating pupils most, but this effect is blunted under oxytocin; (iii) under oxytocin rather than placebo, pupil dilation mimicry is weaker and pupil constriction mimicry stronger and; (iv) the link between pupil constriction mimicry and distrust observed under placebo disappears under oxytocin. We suggest that pupil-contingent trust is parochial and evolved in social species in and because of group life.
