description: Objective: To assess the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and type-2-diabetes in patients with psychiatric disorders. Methods: A population-based study was conducted using the Swedish national health registries. Patients were identified from the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) in 20 primary care centers and were categorized in four diagnosis cohorts according to their first psychiatric diagnosis: bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, or other mood disorder. A control cohort of patients with no psychiatric disorders followed in the same primary care centers was also identified. Incident CVD and type-2-diabetes were defined as the presence of a diagnosis of CVD or diabetes during the follow-up period in patients without prior event. Results: The age and sex standardized incidence rate of CVD was 13.5 per 1000 patient-year in the patients with any psychiatric disorder versus 6.3 per 1000 patient-year in the controls. A similar trend was observed for incident diabetes (5.7 versus 3.4 per 1000 patient-year, respectively). The bipolar disorder and the schizophrenia cohorts showed the highest standardized incidence rates. Conclusion: Incidence of CVD and to a lesser extent type-2-diabetes was particularly high in patients with psychiatric disorders. This carries strong clinical implications for the prevention of CVD and type-2-diabetes in these patients.
title: Computer-Based Procedural Performance as a Function of Window Size and Format Type

description: The present experiment examined the effect of three levels of format (flowchart, menu, and extended text), two levels of window size (6-line and lg-line), two levels of procedural plan (Plan A and Plan B), and two levels of gender (male and female) on task completion speed and performance accuracy. A computer-based procedure display task was employed to measure subject performance on three dependent variables; the overall task completion time, the decision time between steps, and the performance accuracy on steps executed. Plans A and B were examined for equal cognitive complexity using a logical analysis prior to the start of the experiment. The plans had an equal amount of executable statements, some of which were termed "hard" and others that were "easy". The hard statements were those that had nested IF-THEN statements, while easy statements were direct commands. The results revealed that the flowchart format required the longest completion times and the menu format the shortest for subjects. Completion times were significantly longer for Plan B. A significant interaction occurred between the Format and Plan variables; Plan B took significantly longer to complete using the flowchart format. Subjects were found to have the longest decision times when using the extended text format and the shortest when using the menu format. Decision times were significantly longer for subjects who used the 18-line window across all three format types. Subjects performed the task with greater accuracy when using the 6-line window.

description: On 24 September 1910 the British Flight magazine published as its lead article (‘The New Arm’) a piece on the recent Grand Autumn Manoeuvre of the French Army in Picardy. For the first time in history, military aircraft had been deployed on both sides in a reconnaissance and artillery spotting role. The article stated that ‘the aeroplane, even in its present stage of development, has already resulted in an urgent need for the entire revision of all accepted schemes of tactics in warfare.’

description: LIGO's detection of gravitational waves marks a first step in measurable effects of general relativity on quantum matter. In its current operation, laser interferometer gravitational-wave detectors are already quantum limited at high frequencies, and planned upgrades aim to decrease the noise floor to the quantum level over a wider bandwidth. This raises the interesting idea of what a gravitational-wave detector, or an optomechanical system more generally, may reveal about gravity beyond detecting gravitational waves from highly energetic astrophysical events, such as its quantum versus classical nature. In this paper we develop a quantum treatment of gravitational waves and its interactions with the detector. We show that the treatment recovers known equations of motion in the classical limit for gravity, and we apply our formulation to study the system dynamics, with a particular focus on the implications of gravity quantization. Our framework can also be extended to study alternate theories of gravity and the ways in which their features manifest themselves in a quantum optomechanical system.

description: We apply the perturbative QCD factorization theorem developed recently for nonleptonic heavy meson decays to the radiative decay $B\to K^*γ$. In this formalism the evolution of the Wilson coefficients from the $W$ boson mass down to the characteristic scale of the decay process is governed by the effective weak Hamiltonian. The evolution from the characteristic scale to a lower hadronic scale is formulated by the Sudakov resummation. Besides computing the dominant contribution arising from the magnetic-penguin operator $O_7$, we also calculate the contributions of four-quark operators. By fitting our prediction for the branching ratio of the $B\to K^*γ$ decay to the CLEO data, we determine the $B$ meson wave function, that possesses a sharp peak at a low momentum fraction.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: Experiments were performed to determine the mechanism by which limpets attach to the substratum. Pressure measurements were made under the feet of three species of limpets as they were forcibly detached from the substratum. These measurements show that limpets actively decrease the pressure under their feet, and in almost every case this pressure decrease can account for all of their tenacity. The results are the same whether the pressure transducer is flush with the surface or connected to the surface

description: Nanoparticulate systems can passively target regional lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes (LNs) after interstitial administration. Highly sensitive non-invasive imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), can take advantage from particles’ lymphotropic properties to provide a reliable tool to monitor lymphatic function and LN morphology with high spatial resolution. In this work, we developed and characterised a bioerodible nanosystem with MRI contrast properties, based on poly(ethylene glycol)-alendronate stabilised gadolinium calcium phosphate nanoparticles (NPs). After foot paw injection in mice, the particles exhibited a distinct pattern of gradual uptake into the local lymphatics and a localised deposition in the popliteal LN. Less variability in the onset of the signal, intensity and localisation was observed compared to the commercially available tracer gadobutrol, suggesting that these NPs could be useful to monitor physiological and dysfunctional lymphatic conditions. Moreover, dissolution of the particles indicated that they would be rapidly cleared from the body after imaging. Nevertheless, our findings call for an improvement of the system that includes reduction of gadolinium leakage from the NPs, and decrease in size of the latter to increase their selective uptake by the LN.

description: We propose and develop to some extent a novel approach, which allows us to effectively describe, for relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the empirically observed deviation from unity of the intercept λ(i.e. the measured value corresponding to zero relative momentum {\bf p} of two registered identical pions or kaons) of the two-particle correlation function C(p,K). The approach is based on the use of two versions of the so-called q-deformed oscillators and the corresponding picture of ideal gases of q-bosons. By these techniques the intercept λis put into direct correspondence with the deformation parameter q. For fixed deformation strength, the model predicts dependence of the intercept λon the pion pair mean momentum {\bf K}.

description: Using numerical integrations, we find that the orbital eccentricity of Saturn's moon Iapetus undergoes prominent multi-Myr oscillations. We identify the responsible resonant argument to be $\varpi-\varpi_{g5}+Ω-Ω_{eq}$, with the terms being the longitudes of pericenter of Iapetus and planetary secular mode $g_5$, Iapetus's longitude of the node and Saturn's equinox. We find that this argument currently (on a $10^7$~yr timescale) appears to librate with a very large amplitude. On longer timescales, the behavior of this resonant angle is strongly dependent on the resonant interaction between Saturn's spin axis and the planetary mode $f_8$, with long-term secular resonance being possible if Saturn's equinox is librating relative to the node of the $f_8$ eigenmode. We present analytical estimates of the dependence of the resonant argument on the orbital elements of Iapetus. We find that this Iapetus-$g_5$ secular resonance could have been established only after the passage of Iapetus through the 5:1 mean-motion resonance with Titan, possibly in the last Gyr. Using numerical simulations, we show that the capture into the secular resonance appears to be a low-probability event. While the Iapetus-$g_5$ secular resonance can potentially help us put new constraints on the past dynamics of the Saturnian system, uncertainties in both the spin axis dynamics of Saturn and the tidal evolution rate of Titan make it impossible to make any firm conclusions about the resonance's longevity and origin.

‘Everything in war is very simple...’ The Great War French tank regulations and their implementation
Creators: name: Gale, Tim
Publisher: name: British Journal for Military History
Year: 2019

description: This article examines how the French army developed its tank doctrine during the Great War. How that doctrine came to be formulated and how it worked in practice will be discussed, as will the obstacles to devising such doctrine in the context of continuous and large-scale operations on the Western Front from 1916 to the end of the war. The three French tank designs, the Schneider, the St Chamond (both medium tanks) and the Renault light tank had to be tested and developed in the field, as was the doctrine used to employ them. As will be shown, despite developing sound tank doctrine on a tactical and operational level reasonably quickly, the French army would then discover that good doctrine was only part of the equation leading to military effectiveness, illustrating Clausewitz’s dictum that ‘everything in war is very simple, but the simplest thing is difficult’.

description: Temporal changes in terrestrial mollusc communities after a forest fire in the Sant Llorençdel Munt i l’Obac Natural Park.-We measured the abundance and diversity of terrestrial mollusks four years (short-term) and eighteenyears (long-term) since a forest fire occurred at Sant Llorenç del Munt i l’Obac Natural Park in summer2003. We also analyzed the influence of five postfire treatments on the snail diversity. In the long term,species diversity increased and community composition diversified, regardless of forest treatments. Onthe other hand, the total abundance of mollusks was significantly lower eighteen than four years afterthe fire. Over time, postfire changes in the habitat (e.g. increase in plant cover and leaf litter on the ground)have shaped changes in the diversity and abundance of the terrestrial gastropod community.

description: We study theoretically the photon statistics of the field emitted from two optically coupled semiconductor microcavities each containing a quantum well. The emission is determined by the interplay between exciton-photon coupling in each quantum well and internal interaction between the two optically coupled microcavities. A high degree of coherent control and tunability via the quantum well-cavity coupling strength and photon tunneling over the photon statistics of the transmitted field can be achieved. We demonstrate that the optical property of radiation emitted by one quantum well can be controlled by the properties of the second quantum well. This result has the potential to be used in quantum information processing. We show that the exciton-photon coupling influences the polariton resonances in the intensity spectrum of the transmitted field. The results obtained in this investigation has the potential to be used for designing efficient controllable all-optical switch and high sensitive optical sensor.

We find that the spin correlations of the $\tautau$ in $τ\to πν_τ, ρν_τ$ decays are discriminative between the Higgs boson signal and the Standard Model background. Observation of the predicted distinctive distribution can confirm the spin-0 nature of the Higgs resonance. The relative coupling strength of the Higgs boson to $b$ and $τ$ can also be experimentally determined.

Fura-2 measurement of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration in corpus allatum cells of larval Manduca sexta
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: Cytosolic free Ca2+ has been implicated in the regulation of the larval corpus allatum (CA) of the tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta since agents presumed to cause changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations affect both basal and neuropeptide-modulated synthesis/release of the juvenile hormones. To determine whether differences in cytosolic free [Ca2+] in CA cells were associated with different levels of gland activity, methods were developed for dissociating CA cells with the retention of biosynthetic activity and for uptake by the dissociated cells of the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator Fura-2. Digitized fluorescence microscopy of the Fura-2-loaded cells enabled measurement of intracellular Ca2+ levels in individual cells. Intracellular free Ca2+ levels were measured in CA cells from selected days during the fifth larval stadium and were found to be highest when the CA were biosynthetically active. Treatment of CA cells from day 6 with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin elevated the intracellular Ca2+ level, corroborating the involvement of elevated intracellular [Ca2+] in ionophore effects on juvenile hormone (JH) and JH acid synthesis. The results of the study are considered in relation to our knowledge of the role of Ca2+ in the function of endocrine gland cells.

description: Purpose: To investigate the validity of two Monte Carlo simulation absolute dosimetry approaches in the case of a small field dedicated `D'-shaped collimator used for the retinoblastoma treatment with external photon beam radiotherapy. Methods: The Monte Carlo code {\sc penelope} is used to simulate the linac, the dedicated collimator and a water phantom. The absolute doses (in Gy per monitor unit) for the field sizes considered are obtained within the approach of Popescu {\it et al.} in which the tallied backscattered dose in the monitor chamber is accounted for. The results are compared to experimental data, to those found with a simpler Monte Carlo approximation for the calculation of absolute doses and to those provided by the analytical anisotropic algorithm. Our analysis allows for the study of the simulation tracking parameters. Two sets of parameters have been considered for the simulation of the particle transport in the linac target. Results: The change in the tracking parameters produced non-negligible differences, of about 10\% or larger, in the doses estimated in reference conditions. The Monte Carlo results for the absolute doses differ from the experimental ones by 2.6\% and 1.7\% for the two parameter sets for the collimator geometries analyzed. For the studied fields, the simpler approach produces absolute doses that are statistically compatible with those obtained with the approach of Popescu {\it et al.} The analytical anisotropic algorithm underestimates the experimental absolute doses with discrepancies larger than those found for Monte Carlo results. Conclusions: The approach studied can be considered for absolute dosimetry in the case of small, `D'-shaped and off-axis radiation fields. However, a detailed description of the radiation transport in the linac target is mandatory for an accurate absolute dosimetry.

description: We discuss the possibility of reconstructing the newly formed proto-neutron star radius from the late time neutrino signal. A black-body emission is assumed for the neutron star cooling phase. We parametrize the neutrino time-integrated fluxes based on simulations of Roberts and Reddy. A likelihood analysis of the inverse-beta decay and elastic scattering events in Hyper-Kamiokande is performed in both three flavor and an effective one flavor scenario. We show that the precision achievable in the radius reconstruction strongly depends on a correlation with the pinching parameter and therefore the corresponding prior. Although this correlation hinders the precise measurement of the newly formed neutron star radius, it could help measure the pinching parameters with good accuracy in view of the current constraints on neutron star radius, or if the neutron star radius is precisely measured.

description: Inkjet printing allows for rapid prototyping and design iteration that traditional printing methods do not. The use of inkjet printing for electronic devices has seen increased use in recent years owing to its high precision and ability to quickly test new devices. However, nearly all of this work has been done on smooth substrates with surface roughnesses on the nano scale. To further explore the capabilities of inkjet printing on rough surfaces, electrically conductive ink was printed onto a variety of solids-loaded polymer composite substrates using varied filler particle sizes with surface roughnesses on the micron scale. This work examines the necessary parameters required to print on these rough surfaces and characterizes the electrical properties of deposited ink. Electrical conductivity was demonstrated on surfaces across five distinct substrates using varied particle sizes. Further, two functional devices in the form of a heater and a strain gauge were printed and tested on these substrates. These devices showed comparable performance to commercially available devices. These findings offer improved ability to use inkjet technology on a variety of substrates and have implications in multiple fields. This demonstration of basic conductivity and advanced functionality shows the potential to continue development of complex devices and integrate them into new substrates. The optimization of printing algorithms on these rough surfaces also has significant potential to improve printability on rough surfaces and further expand capabilities.

description: Two-body pion-radiating and weak decays of light axial-vector mesons and the rho are studied as a phenomenological application of the QCD Dyson-Schwinger equations. Models based on the rainbow-ladder truncation are capable of providing a good description and, in particular, yield the correct sign and magnitude of the a1 -> rho pi and b1 -> omega pi D/S ratios, with no additional mechanism necessary.

description: Oscillatory effects in magnetic susceptibility of free electrons in a strong magnetic field is well known phenomenon and is well captured by Lifshitz-Kosevich formula. In this paper we point out similar oscillatory effects in Stoner susceptibility which makes the system to oscillate between paramagnetic phase and ferromagnetic phase alternatively as a function of external magnetic field strength. This effect can happen in a material which is tuned near to its magnetic instability. We suggest an experimental set-up to observe this effect. We also suggest that our result can be exploited to control a quantum critical system around its quantum critical point to study its thermodynamical or transport properties.

description: We study a number of models, based on a non-Abelian discrete group, that successfully reproduce the simple and predictive Yukawa textures usually associated with U(2) theories of flavor. These models allow for solutions to the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems that do not require altering successful predictions for the charged fermions or introducing sterile neutrinos. Although Yukawa matrices are hierarchical in the models we consider, the mixing between second- and third-generation neutrinos is naturally large. We first present a quantitative analysis of a minimal model proposed in earlier work, consisting of a global fit to fermion masses and mixing angles, including the most important renormalization group effects. We then propose two new variant models: The first reproduces all important features of the SU(5)xU(2) unified theory with neither SU(5) nor U(2). The second demonstrates that discrete subgroups of SU(2) can be used in constructing viable supersymmetric theories of flavor without scalar universality even though SU(2) by itself cannot.

Safeguarding Florida's Coral Reefs: The Urgency of Assisted Gene Flow for Elkhorn Coral Conservation
Creators: name: CRC Genetics Working Group
Publisher: name: Coral Restoration Consortium
Year: 2025

description: The devastating 2023 heatwave is the latest in a series of disasters that has decimated the Florida population of elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata) to a critically low level, pushing this species to a precarious tipping point. Precautionary management currently forbids outplanting of corals from outside Florida. This precaution is intended to prevent the introduction of novel genes that could cause outbreeding depression and to preserve local adaptive variation in the Florida population. However, the multi-decadal decline of Florida’s elkhorn corals indicates a lack of adaptation to the shifting environmental conditions on Florida reefs. The potential risks of outbreeding depression associated with introducing new genetic variants from outside sources pale in comparison to the continuous demographic decline through successive heat waves, and the threat of inbreeding depression. Operational risks of Assisted Gene Flow (AGF) can be managed by introducing non-Florida alleles via outplanting of the existing lab-based juveniles rather than adults sourced from the wild. Further, the extent to which new genetic material is introduced should be proportional to Florida’s founder population. NOAA’s Florida Genetic Management Plan (F3P) can guide the introduction of non-Florida alleles versus the introduction of sexually produced offspring from the limited floridian parental stock. We conclude that assisted gene flow via lab-based crossing of Florida’s elkhorn with elkhorn from elsewhere in the Caribbean is a strategy with manageable risks and mission-critical benefits. AGF should be implemented urgently to introduce new genetic variants, thereby increasing the elkhorn coral’s genetic diversity, and enhancing the resilience of these populations to future stress. Without such intervention, coupled with the high probability of additional 2023-scale heatwaves, the grim prospect of completely losing all elkhorn corals from Florida’s reefs within this decade becomes increasingly probable.
Ultrasonic vocalizations of flying bats monitored by radiotelemetry

description: Ultrasonic vocalizations of flying bats were effectively monitored with radiotelemetry. We describe a device light enough to be carried by an 11 g bat for periods of up to 1 h. It transmitted signals adequate for fine frequency analysis within a range of approximately 3 m. Telemetry permitted the recording of constant-frequency pulses free from flight-induced Doppler shifts and without time delays. The difference in frequency between telemetered signals and the same signals detected by a remote microphone was used to calculate velocity and Doppler shifts. Pulse emission behavior of Pteronotus parnellii in flight was compared with simulated flight on a pendulum. The data showed significant differences in echo bandwidths, constant-frequency pulse durations and interpulse intervals. In flight, pulses and interpulse intervals tended to be shorter and bats maintained echo frequencies within a significantly narrower band. Phases of echolocation that characterized the approach to a target were clearly evident in flight, but not during pendulum swings. Differences in pulse durations and interpulse intervals may be correlated with the integration of wingbeat, respiration and vocalization. The absence of wing motion in simulated flight changes this integration.

description: Background: Oral corticosteroids (OCSs) are often used to achieve asthma control. OCS-related comorbidities increase the burden of disease for patients and healthcare providers. Most studies characterizing OCS use and risk of adverse events (AEs) are in non-asthma patients. We sought to systematically review the literature on the burden of OCS use among adults with asthma. Methods: We systematically reviewed the literature including MEDLINE (1946–May 2017), EMBASE (1974–May 2017), and the Cochrane Library (2005–May 2017) to identify studies that considered AEs due to OCS treatment of adults with asthma, their burden on healthcare utilization, and costs. Results: We retrieved 9,589 citations; and 15 studies were included. AEs were significantly higher among OCS-users compared with non-OCS users with pooled adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.68 (95% CI 1.15–2.46) for diabetes mellitus and 1.34 (95% CI 1.23–1.46) for hypertension. Among high dose OCS-users (>10 mg) compared with non-OCS users, the pooled adjusted ORs for development of any complication was 3.35 (95% CI 2.94–3.82), and bone and muscle complications 2.30 (95% CI 2.18–2.42). The risk of any complication increased with higher doses of OCS, with pooled adjusted OR from 2 studies of 2.26 (95% CI 1.37–3.72), 2.94 (95% CI 2.62–3.29) and 3.35 (95% CI 2.94–3.82) for low dose (<6 mg), medium dose (5–12 mg) and high dose (>10 mg) respectively compared with no OCS use. Conclusions: The use of OCS in the management of asthma is associated with a higher risk of complications. This risk is higher as the OCS dose increases.
A tracker solution to the cold dark matter cosmic coincidence problem

description: Recently, we introduced the notion of "tracker fields," a form of quintessence which has an attractor-like solution. Using this concept, we showed how to construct models in which the ratio of quintessence to matter densities today is independent of initial conditions. Here we apply the same idea to the standard cold dark matter component in cases where it is composed of oscillating fields. Combining these ideas, we can construct a model in which quintessence, cold dark matter, and ordinary matter all contribute comparable amounts to the total energy density today irrespective of initial conditions.

GEOMAGNETIC ORIENTATION OF LOGGERHEAD SEA TURTLES: EVIDENCE FOR AN INCLINATION COMPASS
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1993

description: Recent experiments have demonstrated that hatchling loggerhead sea turtles can orient using the earth's magnetic field. To investigate the functional characteristics of the loggerhead magnetic compass, we tested the orientation of hatchlings tethered inside a circular arena surrounded by a coil system that could be used to reverse the vertical and horizontal components of the ambient field. Hatchlings tested in darkness in the earth's magnetic field were significantly oriented in an eastward direction. Inverting the vertical magnetic field component resulted in an approximate reversal of orientation direction, whereas reversing both the vertical and horizontal components together did not. The hatchlings failed to orient in a horizontal field of earth-strength intensity. These results provide evidence that the magnetic compass of loggerheads is an inclination (axial) compass, functionally similar to that of birds.
