description: Σκοπός της μελέτης ήταν η διερεύνηση της συμβολής της αξονικής τομογραφίας και του μαγνητικού συντονισμού των ογκόμορφων εξεργασιών μεσοθωρακίου. Εξετάσθηκαν 108 ασθενείς και τα απεικονιστικά ευρήματα συσχετίστηκαν με την ιστολογική εικόνα των όγκων. Σε 43 ασθενείς η εξεργασία ήταν καλοήθεις ενώ σε 65 κακοήθης. Η καλοήθεια ή κακοήθεια της εξεργασίας συσχετίστηκε με 14 ποιοτικούς και ποσοτικούς παράγοντες φύλο, ηλικία, ιστορικό, εντόπιση όγκων, μέγεθος όγκων, σχήμα, περίγραμμα, απεικόνιση, παρουσία εμπλουτισμού, τύπος-βαθμός εμπλουτισμού, παρουσία επασβεστώσεων, διήθηση μεγάλων αγγειών, παρουσία πλευριτικής συλλογής και η παρουσία διογκωμένων λεμφαδενών. Στη στατιστική ανάλυση βρέθηκε ότι δεν υπήρχε συσχέτιση ανάμεσα στην καλοήθεια/κακοήθεια της εξεργασίας και το ιστορικό, το μέγεθος, την ηλικία και το φύλο, ενώ υπήρχε συσχέτιση με τους υπόλοιπους παράγοντες. Ισχυροί προγνωστικοί παράγοντες για κακοήθεια ήταν το σχήμα και το λοβωτό περίγραμμα. Ενώ ισχυροί προγνωστικοί παράγοντες για καλοήθεια ήταν ο έντονος εμπλουτισμός και η παρουσία επασβεστώσεων
description: The purpose of our study was to determine the contribution of CT and MRI in the evaluation of tumorlike lesions of the mediastinum. 108 patients with mediastinal tumors were studied and the imaging finding were correlated with lesions histology. 43 tumors were benign and 65 malignant. Tumor characterization as benign or malignant was correlated with 14 quantitative and qualitative factors for the overall outcome of the disease. These factors were : patients' gender, patients' age, patients' history, tumor localization, tumor size, tumor shape, tumor contour, presence of enhancement, pattern and degree of enhancement, the "appearance" of the tumor, presence of calcification, invasion of great vessels, pleural effusions, enlargement of mediastinal lumph nodes. The statistical analysis(SPSS statistical program) leaded to the following conclusions : these was no statistical correlation between the benignacy/malignancy of the tumor and the history size, age, gender of the patient. Statistically important correlation was found with all the remaining factors. Two important predictive factors for malignancy(irregular shape-lobular contour) and enhancement-calcification) were demostrated

description: A k-digraph is an orientation of a multi-graph that is without loops and contains at most k edges between any pair of distinct vertices. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers in non-decreasing order to be a sequence of numbers, called marks (k-scores), attached to vertices of a k-digraph. We characterize irreducible mark sequences in k-digraphs and uniquely realizable mark sequences in 2-digraphs.

description: A representation of a specialization of a q-deformed class one lattice gl(\ell+1}-Whittaker function in terms of cohomology groups of line bundles on the space QM_d(P^{\ell}) of quasi-maps P^1 to P^{\ell} of degree d is proposed. For \ell=1, this provides an interpretation of non-specialized q-deformed gl(2)-Whittaker function in terms of QM_d(\IP^1). In particular the (q-version of) Mellin-Barnes representation of gl(2)-Whittaker function is realized as a semi-infinite period map. The explicit form of the period map manifests an important role of q-version of Gamma-function as a substitute of topological genus in semi-infinite geometry. A relation with Givental-Lee universal solution (J-function) of q-deformed gl(2)-Toda chain is also discussed.

description: We study the temporal evolution of the circuit complexity after the local quench where two harmonic chains are suddenly joined, choosing the initial state as the reference state. We discuss numerical results for the complexity for the entire chain and the subsystem complexity for a block of consecutive sites, obtained by exploiting the Fisher information geometry of the covariance matrices. The qualitative behaviour of the temporal evolutions of the subsystem complexity depends on whether the joining point is inside the subsystem. The revivals and a logarithmic growth observed during these temporal evolutions are discussed. When the joining point is outside the subsystem, the temporal evolutions of the subsystem complexity and of the corresponding entanglement entropy are qualitatively similar.

Monoclonal antibodies(α-SMA, MMP2, MMP9, TIMP1, TIMP2 and TGFβ) were used. A similar such multifactor study has never before been mentioned in the international bibliography. In this study were found statistically importnant correlations between the fibrosis stage and the expression pecentage of aSMA, TIMP1 and TGFβ(p<0,001). The findings of this study suggest that the use of the immunohistochemical merkers a-SMA, TIMP1 and TGFβ in the lives tissue, in conjuction with certain serum markers, may play a definite role in the future, in assessing progress of liver fibrosis

description: Η παρούσα μελέτη έχει ως σκοπό την διερεύνηση της αντοχής στη μουπιροσίνη σε στελέχη σταφυλοκόκκων. Για το λόγο αυτό εξετάστηκαν 362 στελέχη σταφυλοκκόκων από τα οποία 146 ήταν S.aureus και 216 CONS. Η ανθεκτικότητα στη μουπιροσίνη ελέγχθηκε με τη μέθοδο του E-test. Συνολικά βρέθηκαν 38(10,49%) με υψηλή ανθεκτικότητα και 8(2,2%) με χαμηλή. Ο έλεγχος για τη δυνατότητα μεταβίβασης της αντοχής σε μικρόβια-λήπτες έγινε με τη μέθοδο σύζευξης σε φίλτρα. Ολα τα στελέχη με υψηλή ανθεκτικότητα με μια εξαίρεση μεταβίβασαν την αντοχή. Με τη δοκιμασία PCA ανευρέθει το γονίδιο mupA στα στελέχη με υψηλή αντοχή. Με την πλασμιδιακή ανάλυση φάνηκε ότι όλα τα στελέχη με υψηλού βαθμού αντοχή είχαν κοινό πλασμίδιο. Η γενετική συγγένεια των ανθεκτικών στελεχών μελετήθηκε με την PEGE. Τα στελέχη S. aureus με υψηλή αντοχή ανήκαν σε ένα κλώνο, ενώ το ανθεκτικά στελέχη S. epidermidis σε περισσότερους. Το γεγονός αυτό σε συνδυασμό με την ύπαρξη ενός κοινού κλώνου ανάμεσα στα ευαίσθητα και στα ανθεκτικά στελέχη ενισχύει την υπόθεση της μεταφοράς γονιδίων αντοχής μεταξύ στελεχών
description: The aim of this study was the research of mupirocin resistant staphylococcus strains and their spread. For these purposes and 216 CONS were collected MIC of mupirocin was determined using E-test strips. The results demonstrated that 38(10,49%) isolates were high-level mupirocin resistant and 8(2,2%) were low-level resistant. Transfer of high-level mupirocin resistance were also examined by filter-mating. High-level mupirocin resistance was transferred from all high-level resistant strains with one exception. PRC was performed to detect the mupA gene, which was detected in all of the high-level resistant isolates. Plasmid analysis revealed that high-level mupirocin resistant strains and their transconjugants posseced a common plasmid. The genetic relationship of staphylocicci exhibiting resistance to mupirocin was studied by PFGE. The results revealed that the S. aureus isolates with high-level mupirocin resistance belonged to the same PFGE type. The S. epidermidis resistance strains were of different types. The existance of a common PFGE type between sensitive and resistant strains suggests that resistance were transferred among strains
Understanding claims-making activities about social problems : the case of homelessness

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: UNDERSTANDING CLAIMS-MAKING ACTIVITIES ABOUT SOCIAL PROBLEMS: THE CASE OF HOMELESSNESS IN CANADA. Liberal Democracy proposes to combine the best of all worlds; individual freedom, economic growth, equal opportunity to achieve wealth, health and happiness. In Canada, we have experienced this liberal democracy for many decades and have witnessed the growth of the modern welfare state. Increases in prosperity and growth have been tremendous, yet we are still faced with the stark reality of poverty and the huge discrepancy between rich and poor. Nowhere is this more clearly illustrated than in the housing sector. Homelessness, the ultimate housing inequality, has not been eradicated. Instead, it continues to be a pervasive and growing phenomenon. This leads to the conclusion that Canada's welfare state has not contributed successfully to eliminating and preventing homelessness. This research examines the way society deals with social problems and their emergence. The focus is on the emergence of homelessness as a social problem. It illustrates that conventional approaches to the analysis of social problems limit actions and solutions society undertakes to resolve them. A new framework for analysis is proposed; a process oriented analysis of claims-making activities as a way of understanding social problems. This thesis documents the process of recognition of homelessness as a public policy issue in Canada. It examines the role of 'process' in the development of public policy issues because the way a society views, defines and re-defines a social problem often determines the policy response. One of the key components of understanding the public policy response to homelessness lies within the process of public recognition of homelessness as a social problem. This research contends that the way in which a problem is identified and comes to be defined and the actors involved affects the types of solutions implemented. Indeed, it is this concept of process which is crucial in the emergence, life or death of a social problem as a public issue.
Commutator Equations in Finite Groups

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Group Theory (math.GR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The problem of finding the number of ordered commuting tuples of elements in a finite group is equivalent to finding the size of the solution set of the system of equations determined by the commutator relations that impose commutativity among any pair of elements from an ordered tuple. We consider this type of systems for the case of ordered triples and express the size of the solution set in terms of the irreducible characters of the group. The obtained formulas are natural extensions of Frobenius' character formula that calculates the number of ways a group element is a commutator of an ordered pair of elements in a finite group. We discuss how our formulas can be used to study the probability distributions afforded by these systems of equations, and we show explicit calculations for dihedral groups.
The metamorphosis of the Conservative Party under Thatcher
Creators: name: Henriksson, Tracey
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In the postwar era, there has been a change in the nature of the British Conservative Party caused by the adoption of classical liberal ideas antithetical to its principles. This trend rapidly accelerated during the leadership of the Party by Margaret Thatcher who appeared oblivious to the fundamental incompatibility of liberalism and conservatism. She attempted to weld them together in her economic and social policies creating strong internal tensions within what was dubbed "Thatcherism". This clash became more pronounced as her reign as British Prime Minister continued and was part of the reason for her eventual downfall at the hands of her own party. To illustrate the conversion of the Conservative Party to a more liberal standpoint we will consider two modern day political thinkers and the popularity of their positions. This approach is taken because their philosphies parallel the thinking of the postwar Conservative Party before Thatcher and under Thatcher's leadership. Michael Oakeshott, who fits into the conservative tradition and Friedrich Hayek, who embodies liberalism. Oakeshott's philosophy is in sharp contrast at important points to the ideas of Hayek, a self-confessed and proud liberal, whose ideas nevertheless found favour within the Conservative Party while many integral parts of conservatism, of which Oakeshott is a representative, were pushed aside. The stridency and harshness with which Thatcher preached the doctrine of economic liberalism and ideology and also tried to retain certain conservative ideals such as, authority, nationalism and militarism constituted a serious and damaging tension within her programme as well as demonstrating the depth of the change that had occurred in the Conservative Party. This thesis seeks to point out these changes and illustrate the adverse effects caused by attempting to turn the Conservative Party into a promoter of classical liberal ideology and thereby partially explain the increasing shakiness of Thatcherism in the 1980's. Even though its leader never lost faith in its convictions or her determination to translate them into concrete policies .

description: Multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) instruments, such as the Two-degree Field (2dF) facility of the Anglo-Australian Observatory (AAO), have facilitated large-scale redshift surveys. Yet despite their acclaim, instrument design has been suspected of introducing subtle selection effects into surveys. Investigation into these selection effects has been overshadowed by instrument complexity. We identify the field configuration algorithm (FCA) used to select targets for observation as mainly responsible for such effects. A FCA can imprint artificial structure on observed target distributions, which may accrue over large angular scales, potentially to the detriment of statistical analyses applied to such surveys. We present here a new FCA developed for 2dF that is based on simulated annealing (SA), a generic method commonly used to solve constrained optimisation problems. We generate synthetic fields and utilise mock 2dF volumes to contrast the behaviour of previous strategies with the SA FCA. The angular two-point correlation function and other sensitive techniques reveal that the new FCA achieves unprecedented sampling uniformity and target yield with improved target priority handling and observational flexibility over current FCAs. The SA FCA is generic enough to be used by current 2dF-like and potentially next-generation MOS instruments with little modification.

The LDOS map has both intravalley contributions centered near zero momentum and reciprocal lattice vectors and intervalley contributions displaced by the wavevector K'-K which connects graphene's two distinct Dirac points. Using graphene's Dirac equation chiral quasiparticle continuum model, we obtain analytic results which explain the qualitative differences between these two LDOS map features. We comment on the sensitivity of both N(q,omega) features to the mix of atomic length scale and smooth disorder sources present in a particular graphene sample.

description: Galaxy flybys are as common as mergers in low redshift universe and are important for galaxy evolution as they involve the exchange of significant amounts of mass and energy. In this study we investigate the effect of minor flybys on the bulges, disks, and spiral arms of Milky Way mass galaxies for two types of bulges - classical bulges and boxy/peanut pseudobulges. Our N-body simulations comprise of two disk galaxies of mass ratios 10:1 and 5:1, where the disks of the galaxies lie in their orbital plane and the pericenter distance is varied. We performed photometric and kinematic bulge-disk decomposition at regular time steps and traced the evolution of the disk size, spiral structure, bulge sersic index, bulge mass, and bulge angular momentum. Our results show that the main effect on the disks is disk thickening, which is seen as the increase in the ratio of disk scale height to scale radius. The strength of the spiral structure A2/A0 shows small oscillations about the mean time-varying amplitude in the pseudobulge host galaxies. The flyby has no significant effect on non-rotating classical bulge, which shows that these bulges are extremely stable in galaxy interactions. However, the pseudobulges become dynamically hotter in flybys indicating that flybys may play an important role in accelerating the rate of secular evolution in disk galaxies. This effect on pseudobulges is a result of their rotating nature as part of the bar. Also, flybys do not affect the time and strength of bar buckling.

description: The scaling properties of DNA knots of different complexities were studied by atomic force microscope. Following two different protocols DNA knots are adsorbed onto a mica surface in regimes of (i) strong binding, that induces a kinetic trapping of the three-dimensional (3D) configuration, and of (ii) weak binding, that permits (partial) relaxation on the surface. In (i) the gyration radius of the adsorbed DNA knot scales with the 3D Flory exponent $ν\approx 0.58$ within error. In (ii), we find $ν\approx 0.66$, a value between the 3D and 2D ($ν=3/4$) exponents, indicating an incomplete 2D relaxation or a different polymer universality class. Compelling evidence is also presented for the localization of the knot crossings in 2D.

description: The main issue of the thesis is the evolution of the Greek educational system in Albania between 1925-1935 and the italian influence upon it. In four chapters one can find information and numerical data about the greek schools and the teachers, cinsiderally shrinking by the years. There are also information about the problems that the schools faced because of the albanian restrictive policy, about the albanian decision to close down all private schools in 1993, and the decision taken by the greek minority in Albania to ask for the protection of the League of Nations. The thesis concludes with the final recommentations of the Permanent Court of International Justice at the Hague providing for the re-establishment of the greek schools by the albanian state

description: The interactions of autonomous microswimmers play an important role for the formation of collective states of motile active matter. We study them in detail for the common microswimmer-design of two-faced Janus spheres with hemispheres made from different materials. Their chemical and physical surface properties may be tailored to fine-tune their mutual attractive, repulsive or aligning behavior. To investigate these effects systematically, we monitor the dynamics of a single gold-capped Janus particle in the external temperature field created by an optically heated metal nanoparticle. We quantify the orientation-dependent repulsion and alignment of the Janus particle and explain it in terms of a simple theoretical model for the induced thermoosmotic surface fluxes. The model reveals that the particle's angular velocity is solely determined by the temperature profile on the equator between the Janus particle's hemispehres and their phoretic mobility contrast. The distortion of the external temperature field by their heterogeneous heat conductivity is moreover shown to break the apparent symmetry of the problem.

Weapons of propaganda : national character and history in the pamphlets of Ulrich von Hutten and his contemporaries
Creators: name: Hendry, Gayle Maureen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis investigates the interrelationship between nationalism, technological advance and the development of propaganda in the early sixteenth century. It focuses on the function and contemporary impact of pamphlets written by Ulrich von Hutten (1488-1523). It examines the formative influences on Hutten and considers the ways in which he moulded his chosen genres to solicit the adherence of his target audience. Hutten developed two major themes in order to encourage national sentiment and direct hostility against identified enemy groups. The development and use of the themes of national character and history are explored in Hutten's pamphlets with special consideration of the labels, rhetorical devices, and argumentation employed, as well as the cultural patterns and prevailing prejudices that are manipulated. Hutten's work is compared in detail with pamphlets by two other major authors, Eberlin von Günzburg and Hartmut von Cronberg, and a briefly survey is made of other contemporary pamphlets. The reception of both Hutten's nationalist thought and his propagandistic methods is discussed, as well as possible reasons for the diverse response of other authors. Both the potential and the limitations of Hutten's propaganda is revealed in the reactions of other pamphleteers. The thesis emphasizes Hutten's importance as a pioneer and methodologist of early nationalist propaganda, and the relevance of his and his supporters' work in the evolution of nationalism.
Der Einbezug der Sozialen Arbeit in die Planungsprozesse der Stadtplanung: Eine qualitativ-interpretative Untersuchung
Creators: name: Mathis, Deborah
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Durch die Raumbezogenheit sozialer Probleme, beispielsweise Verdrängungsprozessen und damit einhergehenden Inklusions- und Exklusionserfahrungen, gewinnen die Planungsprozesse der Stadtplanung als zentraler Regelmechanismus der (sozial-)räumlichen Entwicklung für eine raumbezogene Soziale Arbeit zunehmend an Bedeutung. Ihr fehlender Einbezug in die Planungsprozesse der Stadtplanung wird dadurch als Problemstellung im Fachdiskurs der Sozialen Arbeit thematisiert. Dabei wird allgemein von den „Planungsprozessen der Stadtplanung“ gesprochen. Doch bei der Stadtplanung als kommunale Planungsebene handelt es sich um unterschiedliche Planungsstufen mit unterschiedlichen Planungsinstrumenten, die aufeinander aufbauen und ineinandergreifen. Um das Phänomen des fehlenden Einbezugs der Sozialen Arbeit in die Planungsprozesse der Stadtplanung mit seinen Ausprägungen zu verstehen, befasst sich die vorliegende Masterthesis mit der Stadtplanung und untersucht das Phänomen im Kontext seiner Entstehung. Untersucht wird, welches die prägenden Einflüsse auf den Einbezug der Sozialen Arbeit in die Planungsprozesse der Stadtplanung sind. Die Grounded Theory als qualitativinterpretative Forschungsmethode nach Strauss und Corbin ermöglicht es, eine argumentative Herleitung aus den Experteninterviews als Datenquelle abzuleiten und die Forschungsfrage zu beantworten. Die empirischen Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Einbezug der Sozialen Arbeit eine Frage der Planungsstufe der Stadtplanung ist und die Problemstellung sich nicht auf alle Stadtplanungsprozesse verallgemeinern lässt. Der Einbezug der Sozialen Arbeit wird durch das handlungsorientierte sozialräumliche Planungsverständnis und die ihr zugeschriebene Zuständigkeit bei der Bearbeitung der raumbezogenen sozialen Probleme sowie durch die hierarchische Organisationstruktur der Stadtverwaltung beeinflusst. Besonders prägend ist die professionelle Autonomie, welche die Soziale Arbeit durch einen Expertenstatus bei der sozialräumlichen Entwicklung erhält – oder eben nicht erhält.

description: We give a brief expository discussion on the holographic correspondence of correlation functions in the large J limit of AdS/CFT conjecture. We first review our proposals on the interpretation of the so-called GKPW relation in the large J limit or BMN limit, which are based upon a tunneling picture in relating the AdS bulk to its boundary. Some concrete results, explicitly confirming our picture, are summarized. We then proceed to comment on various issues related to this subject, such as extension of the present picture to nonconformal Dp-brane backgrounds, the correlators of deformed Wilson loops, spinning-string/spin-chain correspondence, and the inclusion of higher string-loop effects. In particular, as for the deformation of Wilson loops, we present a typical tunneling world-sheet solution which can be used for direct derivation of the expectation values of deformed Wilson loops following our picture.

A series approximation to the Kirchhoff integral for Gaussian and exponential roughness covariance functions

description: The Kirchhoff integral is a fundamental integral in scattering theory, appearing in both the Kirchhoff approximation, as well as the small slope approximation. In this work, a functional Taylor series approximation to the-eps-converted-to.pdf Kirchhoff integral is presented, under the condition that the roughness covariance function follows either an exponential or Gaussian form--in both the one-dimensional and two-dimensional cases. Previous approximations to the Kirchhoff integral [Gragg et al. J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 2001, Drumheller and Gragg J. Acoust. Soc. Am., 2001] assumed that the outer scale of the roughness was very large compared to the wavelength, whereas the proposed method can treat arbitrary outer scales. Assuming an infinite outer scale implies that the root mean square (rms) roughness is infinite. The proposed method can efficiently treat surfaces with finite outer scale, and therefore finite rms height. This series is shown to converge independently of roughness or acoustic parameters, and converges to within roundoff error with a reasonable number of terms for a wide variety of dimensionless roughness parameters. The series converges quickly when the dimensionless rms height is small, and slowly when it is large.

description: The functional properties of dry-heated soy protein-polysacharide mixtures were studied. The conjugates adsorb to an appreciable extent at the emulsion droplet surface confering stability against floculation, creaming and coalescence even in the presence of other surfactants. Especially the spi-dextran conjugate prevented aggregation phenomena and creaming instability following heating of the emulsions in boiling water. With the dry-heated for a week spi-dextran mixtures stable salad dressings can be prepared especially when xanthan is added in the emulsion continuous phase

description: We present a computer simulation study on the crystalline phases of hard ellipsoids of revolution. For aspect ratios greater than or equal to 3 the previously suggested stretched-fcc phase [D. Frenkel and B. M. Mulder, Mol. Phys. 55, 1171 (1985)] is replaced by a novel crystalline phase. Its unit cell contains two ellipsoids with unequal orientations. The lattice is simple monoclinic. The angle of inclination of the lattice, beta, is a very soft degree of freedom, while the two right angles are stiff. For one particular value of beta, the close-packed version of this crystal is a specimen of the family of superdense packings recently reported [Donev et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 255506 (2004)]. These results are relevant for studies of nucleation and glassy dynamics of colloidal suspensions of ellipsoids.

Poplar lace bug Monosteira unicostata (Mulsant et Rey, 1852) (Heteroptera: Tingidae) – new poplar pest in Donbass

description: The paper gives data on the distribution of a new dangerous poplar pest – the poplar lace bug Monosteira unicostata (Mulsant et Rey, 1852) (Heteroptera: Tingidae), first recorded in Donbass in 2021. Currently, the spread of the pest in the region is local and focal in nature. The species attacks the leaves of black poplar (Populus nigra L.) and white poplar (P. alba L.) mainly in the lower part of the crown and on the root shoots. The feeding of the bug leads to yellowing of the leaves, contamination with excrement and premature defoliation. Further growth of the pest population may have a significant negative impact on the phytosanitary condition of plantations. Taking into account the possibility of feeding on fruit trees, poplar lace bug should be considered as a potentially dangerous horticultural pest, which requires organizing monitoring of the state of its populations in the region.
