description: In this paper, we test if nearby blue spheroid (BSph) galaxies may become the progenitors of star-forming spiral galaxies or passively evolving elliptical galaxies. Our sample comprises 428 galaxies of various morphologies in the redshift range 0.002 < Ζ < 0.02 (8-87 Mpc) with panchromatic data from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly survey. We find that BSph galaxies are structurally (mean effective surface brightness, effective radius) very similar to their passively evolving red counterparts. However, their star formation and other properties such as colour, age, and metallicity are more like star-forming spirals than spheroids (ellipticals and lenticulars). We show that BSph galaxies are statistically distinguishable from other spheroids as well as spirals in the multidimensional space mapped by luminosity-weighted age, metallicity, dust mass, and specific star formation rate. We use HI data to reveal that some of the BSphs are (further) developing their discs, hence their blue colours. They may eventually become spiral galaxies - if sufficient gas accretion occurs - or more likely fade into low-mass red galaxies.

description: Background and Purpose: Post-traumatic cardiac dysfunction often occurs in multiply injured patients (ISS ≥ 16). Next to direct cardiac injury, post-traumatic cardiac dysfunction is mostly induced by the release of inflammatory biomarkers. One of these is the heparin-binding factor Midkine, which is elevated in humans after fracture, burn injury and traumatic spinal cord injury. Midkine is associated with cardiac pathologies but the exact role of Midkine in the development of those diseases is ambiguous. The systemic profile of Midkine after multiple trauma, its effects on cardiomyocytes and the association with post-traumatic cardiac dysfunction, remain unknown. Experimental Approach: Midkine levels were investigated in blood plasma of multiply injured humans and pigs. Furthermore, human cardiomyocytes (iPS) were cultured in presence/absence of Midkine and analyzed regarding viability, apoptosis, calcium handling,metabolic alterations, and oxidative stress. Finally, theMidkine filtration capacity of the therapeutic blood absorption column CytoSorb ®300 was tested with recombinant Midkine or plasma from multiply injured patients. Key Results: Midkine levels were significantly increased in blood plasma of multiply injured humans and pigs. Midkine acts on human cardiomyocytes, altering their mitochondrial respiration and calcium handling in vitro. CytoSorb®300 filtration reduced Midkine concentration ex vivo and in vitro depending on the dosage. Conclusion and Implications: Midkine is elevated in human and porcine plasma after multiple trauma, affecting the functionality and metabolism of human cardiomyocytes in vitro. Further examinations are required to determine whether the application of CytoSorb®300 filtration in patients after multiple trauma is a promising therapeutic approach to prevent post-traumatic cardiac disfunction.
Pedagogies in Becoming Muslim: Contemporary Insights from Islamic Traditions on Teaching, Learning, and Developing

Year: 2019

description: In light of calls to examine, elaborate, and improve pedagogies in teaching and learning Islam, thematic analysis was conducted on literature in English on pedagogies derived from the primary-source texts, the Qur’an and Sunnah. Three themes were constructed, each capturing a distinct pedagogic principle, to suggest an expansive framework of principled, flexible, situated, holistic, and transformative pedagogies. First, Relational Pedagogies center learning and developing in warm human relationships. Second, Pedagogies of Mutual Engagement include doing, speaking, and inquiring together in participatory processes of making meaning. Third, Pedagogies of Conscious Awareness aim to make visible purposes, reasons, and principles behind Islamic practices. These three themes were then used as sensitizing concepts in examining data gathered in a sociocultural study on Muslim educators’ perspectives and practices at a mosque school in Canada. Reflections of the themes in the data—and contradictions—suggest that educators passionately but partially draw from primary-source pedagogies to inform their praxis in a pedagogic diaspora where interpretation and application vary. Further research is required to examine whether the developmental potential of these primary-source pedagogies might be optimized when they are employed together, as a balanced group, and how they might address pedagogical criticisms in teaching and learning Islam.

description: Autophagy represents a conserved self-digestion program, which allows regulated degradation of cellular material. Autophagy is activated by cellular stress, serum starvation and nutrient deprivation. Several autophagic pathways have been uncovered, which either non-selectively or selectively target the cellular cargo for lysosomal degradation. Autophagy engages the coordinated action of various key regulators involved in the steps of autophagosome formation, cargo targeting and lysosomal fusion. While non-selective (macro)autophagy is required for removal of bulk material or recycling of nutrients, selective autophagy mediates specific targeting of damaged organelles or protein aggregates. By proper action of the autophagic machinery, cellular homeostasis is maintained. In contrast, failure of this fundamental process is accompanied by severe pathophysiological conditions. Hallmarks of neuropathological disorders are for instance accumulated, mis-folded protein aggregates and damaged mitochondria. The nucleolus has been recognized as central hub in the cellular stress response. It represents a sub-nuclear organelle essential for ribosome biogenesis and also functions as stress sensor by mediating cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. Thus, proper nucleolar function is mandatory for cell growth and survival. Here, I highlight the emerging role of nucleolar factors in the regulation of autophagy. Moreover, I discuss the nucleolar stress response as a novel signaling pathway in the context of autophagy, health and disease.

description: A theoretical solution for the transverse and axial deformations of sandwich cantilever beams, due to various types of loading has been presented here. This is obtained by the use of Finite Element Method. The use of these deflections in the fundamental equations for sandwiches, yields the stress and strain states. The boundary conditions for this problem are derived from the total potential energy by the variational principle. Results for the transverse deformation under uniform transverse loading are compared with experimental results. Photoelastic technique has been used for experimental investigations. Method of shear differences is employed to separate the principal stresses. This technique provides the normal stresses in the face sheets and shear stresses in the core. The basic assumptions involved in the theory of sandwich materials are finally checked against the experimental results.

description: Given recent advances in technology, connectivity, and the popularity of social media platforms, recent literature has devoted great attention to problematic Facebook use. However, exploring the potential predictors of problematic social media use beyond Facebook use has become paramount given the increasing popularity of multiple alternative platforms. In this study, a sample of 584 social media users (Mage = 32.28 years; 67.81% female) was recruited to complete an online survey assessing sociodemographic characteristics, patterns, and preferences of social media use, problematic social media use (PSMU), social media use motives, psychological well-being, self-esteem, and positive and negative affect. Results indicated that 6.68% (n = 39) of all respondents could be potentially classed as problematic users. Moreover, further analysis indicated that intrapersonal motive (β = 0.38), negative affect (β = 0.22), daily social media use (β = 0.18), surveillance motive (β = 0.12), and positive affect (β = −0.09) each predicted PSMU. These variables accounted for about 37% of the total variance in PSMU, with intrapersonal motive driving the greatest predictive contribution, over and above the effects of patterns of social media use and sociodemographic variables. These findings contribute to the increasing literature on PSMU. The results of this study are discussed in light of the existing literature on PSMU.

description: Claudins are a family of proteins that forms paracellular barriers and pores determining tight junctions (TJ) permeability. Claudin-16 and -19 are pore forming TJ proteins allowing calcium and magnesium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TAL). Loss-of-function mutations in the encoding genes, initially identified to cause Familial Hypomagnesemia with Hypercalciuria and Nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC), were recently shown to be also involved in Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI). In addition, both claudins were expressed in the murine tooth germ and Claudin-16 knockout (KO) mice displayed abnormal enamel formation. Claudin-3, an ubiquitous claudin expressed in epithelia including kidney, acts as a barrier-forming tight junction protein. We determined that, similarly to claudin-16 and claudin-19, claudin-3 was expressed in the tooth germ, more precisely in the TJ located at the apical end of secretory ameloblasts. The observation of Claudin-3 KO teeth revealed enamel defects associated to impaired TJ structure at the secretory ends of ameloblasts and accumulation of matrix proteins in the forming enamel. Thus, claudin-3 protein loss-of-function disturbs amelogenesis similarly to claudin-16 loss-of-function, highlighting the importance of claudin proteins for the TJ structure. These findings unravel that loss-of-function of either pore or barrier-forming TJ proteins leads to enamel defects. Hence, the major structural function of claudin proteins appears essential for amelogenesis.

description: We present the discovery of a binary millisecond pulsar (MSP), PSR J2322-2650, found in the southern section of the High Time Resolution Universe survey. This system contains a 3.5-ms pulsar with a ~10-3M⊙ companion in a 7.75-h circular orbit. Follow-up observations at the Parkes and Lovell telescopes have led to precise measurements of the astrometric and spin parameters, including the period derivative, timing parallax, and proper motion. PSR J2322-2650 has a parallax of 4.4 ± 1.2 mas, and is thus at an inferred distance of 230+90 -50 pc, making this system a candidate for optical studies. We have detected a source of R ~ 26.4 mag at the radio position in a single R-band observation with the Keck telescope, and this is consistent with the blackbody temperaturewewould expect from the companion if it fills its Roche lobe. The intrinsic period derivative of PSR J2322-2650 is among the lowest known, 4.4(4) × 10-22 s s -1, implying a low surface magnetic field strength, 4.0(4) × 107 G. Its mean radio flux density of 160 μJy combined with the distance implies that its radio luminosity is the lowest ever measured, 0.008(5) mJy kpc2. The inferred population of these systems in the Galaxy may be very significant, suggesting that this is a common MSP evolutionary path.

description: Background Most physiological processes in mammals are temporally regulated by means of a master circadian clock in the brain and peripheral oscillators in most other tissues. A transcriptional-translation feedback network of clock genes produces near 24 h oscillations in clock gene and protein expression. Here, we aim to identify novel additions to the clock network using a meta- analysis of public chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq), proteomics and protein-protein interaction data starting from a published list of 1000 genes with robust transcriptional rhythms and circadian phenotypes of knockdowns. Results We identified 20 candidate genes including nine known clock genes that received significantly high scores and were also robust to the relative weights assigned to different data types. Our scoring was consistent with the original ranking of the 1000 genes, but also provided novel complementary insights. Candidate genes were enriched for genes expressed in a circadian manner in multiple tissues with regulation driven mainly by transcription factors BMAL1 and REV-ERB α,β. Moreover, peak transcription of candidate genes was remarkably consistent across tissues. While peaks of the 1000 genes were distributed uniformly throughout the day, candidate gene peaks were strongly concentrated around dusk. Finally, we showed that binding of specific transcription factors to a gene promoter was predictive of peak transcription at a certain time of day and discuss combinatorial phase regulation. Conclusions Combining complementary publicly- available data targeting different levels of regulation within the circadian network, we filtered the original list and found 11 novel robust candidate clock genes. Using the criteria of circadian proteomic expression, circadian expression in multiple tissues and independent gene knockdown data, we propose six genes (Por, Mtss1, Dgat2, Pim3, Ppp1r3b, Upp2) involved in metabolism and cancer for further experimental investigation. The availability of public high-throughput databases makes such meta-analysis a promising approach to test consistency between sources and tap their entire potential.

description: Background Sedentary behaviours (SB) can be characterized by low energy expenditure in a reclining position (e.g., sitting) often associated with work and transport. Prolonged SB is associated with increased risk for chronic conditions, and due to technological advances, the working population is in office settings with high occupational exposure to SB. This study aims to assess SB among office workers, as well as barriers and strategies towards reducing SB in the work setting. Methods Using a mixed-methods approach guided by the socio-ecological framework, non-academic office workers from a professional school in a large public university were recruited. Of 180 eligible office workers, 40 enrolled and completed all assessments. Self- reported and objectively measured SB and activity levels were captured. Focus group discussion (FGD) were conducted to further understand perceptions, barriers, and strategies to reducing workplace SB. Environmental factors were systematically evaluated by trained research staff using an adapted version of the Checklist for Health Promotion Environments at Worksites (CHEW). Thematic analysis of FGD was conducted and descriptive analysis of quantitative data was performed. Results The sample was mostly Chinese (n = 33, 80 %) with a total of 24 (60 %) female participants. Most participants worked five days a week for about 9.5(0.5) hrs/day. Accelerometer data show that participants spend the majority of their days in sedentary activities both on workdays (76.9 %) and non-workdays (69.5 %). Self-report data confirm these findings with median sitting time of 420(180) minutes at work. From qualitative analyses, major barriers to reducing SB emerged, including the following themes: workplace social and cultural norms, personal factors, job scope, and physical building/office infrastructure. CHEW results confirm a lack of support from the physical infrastructure and information environment to reducing SB. Conclusions There is high SB among office workers in this sample. We identified multiple levels of influence for prolonged occupational SB, with a particular emphasis on workplace norms and infrastructure as important barriers to reducing SB and increasing PA. A larger, representative sample of the Singaporean population is needed to confirm our findings but it seems that any intervention aimed at reducing SB in the workplace should target individual, environmental, and organizational levels.

A requirement engineering framework for assessing health care information systems

description: Health care is increasingly being provided by collaborative teams that involve multiple health care providers at multiple locations. To date, most of that collaboration is on an ad-hoc basis via phone calls, faxes, and paper based documentation. However, Internet and wireless technologies provide an opportunity to improve this situation via electronic data sharing. These new technologies make possible new ways of working and collaboration but it can be difficult for health care organizations to understand how to adopt new technologies while still ensuring that their policies and objectives are being met. It is also important to have a systematic approach to validate that e-health processes deliver the performance improvements that are expected. Using a case study of a palliative care patient receiving home care from a team of collaborating healthcare providers and organizations, we introduce a framework for assessing health care information systems based on requirements engineering. Key concerns and objectives were identified and modeled. Business processes which will use the new health care information system are modeled in terms of these concerns and objectives to assess their impact and ensure that electronic data sharing is well regulated and effective. The work in the thesis is design-oriented research to show the utility of our proposed requirement engineering framework compared to existing evaluation approaches for healthcare IT. The approach is evaluated based on a set of criteria drawn from our literature review and a gap analysis of our case study for palliative care.
Vortex shedding from cylinders with step-changes in diameter in uniform and shear flows

description: Cylinders with a single step-change in diameter, symmetric double step-changes, and a free end were studied at Reynolds numbers between 40 and 1250, in uniform and shear flows. The diameter ratio of the step-cylinders was 0.51. Streamwise velocity measurements were taken with laser Doppler velocimetry, and observations were made using flow visualization. Spectral analysis showed that step-changes in diameter caused vortex shedding to occur in cells of constant frequency, with a change in frequency across the cell boundaries. In uniform flow, vortices behind the large cylinder near the step were shed in a cell with a lower frequency compared to the rest of the cylinder, while, in shear flow, cellular shedding was observed behind both the large and small cylinders. Flow visualization showed that the ends of vortices shed in-phase from two adjacent cells in the step region connected across the cell boundary, while those shed out-of-phase looped 180° and joined with vortices shed from the opposite side of the cylinder, in the same cell. Wavelet analysis of velocity signals showed that the two dominant shedding frequencies at the step could be detected in the signal either simultaneously, in which case the signal had a modulated appearance, or alternating, in which case the signal had a quasi-periodic appearance, whose frequency changed with time. The vortices shed from both cylinders were inclined with respect to the cylinder axes. Spanwise convection of the wakes occurred near the step, in the direction of the large cylinder, caused by flow over the step normal to the cylinder axis. Streamwise vortices were released from the sharp edges of the step, which aided in the formation of vortex loops. Most of the vortex shedding patterns behind the double-step cylinders and the cylinders with free ends were similar to those observed in the single-step case. In addition, the flow around each of the steps of the double-step cylinder influenced the other, an effect that increased as the step separation decreased. The increased flow over the tip of a finite cylinder, as compared to the step-cylinders, resulted in highly-inclined, cusp-like connections between the streamwise and shed vortices.

description: Semen is an important vector for sexual HIV-1 transmission. Although CXCR4-tropic (X4) HIV-1 may be present in semen, almost exclusively CCR5-tropic (R5) HIV-1 causes systemic infection after sexual intercourse. To identify factors that may limit sexual X4-HIV-1 transmission, we generated a seminal fluid–derived compound library and screened it for antiviral agents. We identified four adjacent fractions that blocked X4-HIV-1 but not R5-HIV-1 and found that they all contained spermine and spermidine, abundant polyamines in semen. We showed that spermine, which is present in semen at concentrations up to 14 mM, binds CXCR4 and selectively inhibits cell-free and cell-associated X4-HIV-1 infection of cell lines and primary target cells at micromolar concentrations. Our findings suggest that seminal spermine restricts sexual X4-HIV-1 transmission.

description: Neutrophils, migrating to the site of infection, are able to release serine proteases after being activated. These serine proteases comprise cathepsin G (CatG), neutrophil elastase protease 3 (PR3), and neutrophil serine protease 4 (NSP4). A disadvantage of the uncontrolled proteolytic activity of proteases is the outcome of various human diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, thrombosis, and autoimmune diseases. Activity-based probes (ABPs) are used to determine the proteolytic activity of proteases, containing a set of three essential elements: Warhead, recognition sequence, and the reporter tag for detection of the covalent enzyme activity–based probe complex. Here, we summarize the latest findings of ABP-mediated detection of proteases in both locations intracellularly and on the cell surface of cells, thereby focusing on CatG. Particularly, application of ABPs in regular flow cytometry, imaging flow cytometry, and mass cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) approaches is advantageous when distinguishing between immune cell subsets. ABPs can be included in a vast panel of markers to detect proteolytic activity and determine whether proteases are properly regulated during medication. The use of ABPs as a detection tool opens the possibility to interfere with uncontrolled proteolytic activity of proteases by employing protease inhibitors.

Design and synthesis of helical acetylenic carbo- and heterocyclic cyclophanes

description: The purpose of this research project was to synthesize new acetylenic cyclophanes. These cyclophanes have unusual and aesthetically pleasing structures, pose synthetic challenges, have peculiar reactivity, and often exhibit interesting spectroscopic and physical properties. In addition to the successful synthesis of a number of new cyclophanes, several new synthetic strategies and methods were developed. A one-pot preparation of arylbutadiynes 95 from chloroenyne 83 and arylhalides was accomplished. This method was used to prepare a variety of arylbutadiynes in 80--95% yields. A procedure was also developed for the in situ desilylation/dimerization of bulky silylalkynes. A molecular modeling study provided insight into the observed dimerization reaction products of alpha,o-dialkyne precursors. Termini separation distances (r) less than 7 A gave intermolecular coupling, while distances greater than 10 A gave intermolecular reactions. Mixtures of intra- and intermolecular reaction products were obtained when 7 < r > 10 A. The synthesis of two new C60 acetylenic cyclophanes revealed that the substitution pattern of the capping group controlled the conformation of the molecule. Cyclophane 113 with para-substituted capping groups adopted a helical (chiral) conformation and the isomeric meta-capped cyclophane 123 had a different molecular folding pattern with the potential to be planar. Two classes of unsaturated cyclophanes were synthesized as ligands for the preparation of chiral, non-racemic helical complexes: A tetramethoxybenzene-capped, C60 acetylenic cyclophane as a potential eta12-bis(arene) ligand, and phenanthrolinophanes as tetradentate pi-coordination ligands. Cyclophane 170 was successfully prepared, but metal complexes of 170 could not be prepared. Phenanthrolinophanes 200, 217, and 227 and their corresponding copper complexes were synthesized by a new, metal-templated procedure. Copper coordination was found to raise the helical isomerization barrier height by over 7 kcal/mol; however, isomerization still occurred at room temperature so enantiopure phenanthrolinophanes could not be isolated. The first pentacenes with functional groups on the A and E rings have also been synthesized. A highlight of the rapid, four-step synthesis of pentacenes 274 and 275 was the absence of any chromatographic purification. The commercial potential of these new pentacene compounds as organic semiconductors is being investigated in collaboration with the National Research Council of Canada.* *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams.

description: Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of eukaryotic genomes. However, the extent of their impact on genome evolution, function, and disease remain a matter of intense interrogation. The rise of genomics and large-scale functional assays has shed new light on the multi-faceted activities of TEs and implies that they should no longer be marginalized. Here, we introduce the fundamental properties of TEs and their complex interactions with their cellular environment, which are crucial to understanding their impact and manifold consequences for organismal biology. While we draw examples primarily from mammalian systems, the core concepts outlined here are relevant to a broad range of organisms.

Your reputation precedes you: the influence of expectations on usability and visual appeal in a web environment
Creators: name: Stojmenovic, Milica
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The purpose of this thesis was to examine the impact of expectation on the perceived and objective usability and visual appeal of a website. The problem is that many studies have been done on the relationship between usability and visual appeal but the results of these studies vary vastly. There are many factors that influence the results, including website domain, the type of task, if incentive is given, and metrics used to get the usability and visual appeal measures. However, no one has examined the impact of expectations on these two variables. A set of five preliminary studies was completed in order to get a website data set that significantly varied in levels of visual appeal and usability. This resulted in four website versions: (1) easy and pretty, (2) easy and ugly, (3) hard and pretty, and (4) hard and ugly. Five levels of expectations were implemented: (a) easy and pretty, (b) easy and ugly (c) hard and pretty (d) hard and ugly, and (e) the control - no expectations. Three main computer laboratory studies (in the form of user-based usability tests) were completed to determine the effect of textual and verbal expectations on visual appeal and usability.
