description: Vectorial illustration has great advantages, since it is not resolution dependent, being always avaliable to edition and programmable. This study aims to create vectorial illustrations (In Adobe Illustrator), with capacity to be edit and adapted to taxonomical studies. The major structures for fish identification (photophores, finrays and lateral line), will be programmed with the Blend tool and further deposit in a symbol inventary to create editable patterns. The species used in this study were mesopelagic fishes from the families Myctophidae and Sternoptychidae, being this families important in trophic chain, connecting the zooplancton to top predators. Even being very abundant and with a high biodiversity, few identification guides are avaliable. In this study we create a guide for this species, using the vector libraries, leaving also this libraries avaliable for other researchers to complement with new species as more campaings are made and new species identified.

description: L’uro-CT est un examen de routine dans les services de radiodiagnostic. Le scanner étant une modalité d’imagerie irradiante, il est essentiel de protéger les patients en optimisant les paramètres d’acquisition afin de diminuer la dose au maximum. Un paramètre déterminant pour la dose au patient est la longueur scannée. Bien que des dépassements de longueur scannée aient été référencés dans d’autres pays, il n’existe, à notre connaissance, pas encore d’étude sur la situation en Suisse. L’objectif de notre travail est, d’une part, de déterminer la fréquence et l’amplitude des dépassements de la longueur scannée au-delà des limites anatomiques pour les uro-CT et d’estimer la dose excédentaire. D’autre part, nous aimerions tester la pertinence d’un repère anatomique osseux afin d’aider les techniciens en radiologie médicale à déterminer correctement la marge supérieure des reins. L’étude sera réalisée rétrospectivement et portera sur l’étude de 50 examens tomodensitométriques du système urinaire dans le cadre de la recherche de lithiases urinaires. D’une part, la longueur scannée excédentaire moyenne ainsi que l’excès de dose moyenne induite par la longueur scannée excédentaire seront calculés. D’autre part, l’utilisation de la vertèbre T11 comme repère anatomique osseux sera évaluée en mesurant sa position moyenne par rapport au sommet des reins.

description: Dans le monde de la santé et ce depuis plusieurs années, de nombreuses études ont prouvé l’efficacité de l’hypnose en tant qu’outil thérapeutique. L’hypnose a su se frayer un chemin dans le domaine de la radiologie. En radiothérapie, elle est envisageable à chaque étape du parcours du patient1 atteint d’un cancer dans le but d’améliorer leur qualité de vie. En découvrant de nouvelles ressources en lui, le patient peut apprendre à gérer ses angoisses, à diminuer les effets secondaires liés aux séances de radiothérapie et même à mieux dormir. De par son large champ d’application, les techniques d’hypnose intéressent les techniciens en radiologie médicale (TRM). En Suisse romande, nombreux sont les techniciens ayant reçu une formation en hypnose thérapeutique. Les patients soulignent le besoin, le désir d’avoir accès à des techniques de médecine complémentaire telle que l’hypnose. Pour autant, est-elle souvent appliquée par les TRM lorsqu’elle est indiquée? L’objectif de notre recherche est donc d’identifier les différents facteurs influençant la pratique de l’hypnose par les TRM en radiothérapie. Pour répondre à notre objectif, nous avons choisi de réaliser des entretiens avec des techniciens en radiologie travaillant dans un service de radiothérapie et ayant suivi une formation en hypnose thérapeutique. Nous estimons que les thèmes abordés durant l’entretien permettront, s’il y avait analyses de données, d’identifier les raisons qui pourraient expliquer l’utilisation, ou non, de l’hypnose par les TRM en radiothérapie.

LP based upper and lower bounds for Cesàro and Abel limits of the optimal values in problems of control of a discrete-time stochastic system, convergence of the occupational measures set and averaging of a hybrid control system
Creators: name: Gamertsfelder, Lucas
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2024

subject: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The aim of this thesis is twofold. Firstly, we aim at the development of a linear programming based approach to evaluating the Cesàro and Abel limits of optimal values in problems of control of a discrete-time stochastic system in the case when these limits may depend on initial conditions. Secondly, we aim at establishing that, under certain controllability type conditions, the set of random occupational measures generated by the state-control trajectories of the system converges (in a certain sense) to the convex and weak* compact set of stationary measures and that this convergence allows one to use an averaging technique for finding near-optimal controls of hybrid systems that evolve in continuous time and that are subject to abrupt random changes of parameters.
The thesis consists of four chapters. Chapter 1 is the introduction. In Chapter 2, we address the first aim. That is, we use a linear programming (LP) based approach for analysing optimal values in problems of control of a discrete-time stochastic system considered on long or infinite time horizons in the general non-ergodic case. In Chapters 3 and 4 we address the second aim of the thesis. More specifically, in Chapter 3 we establish that, under certain controllability conditions, the set of occupational measures generated by the state-control trajectories of this system converges to the set of stationary measures. In Chapter 4, we use the results of Chapter 3 to develop an averaging technique allowing one to find a near-optimal control of a hybrid system that evolves in continuous time and that is subject to abrupt random changes in parameters synchronised with and controlled by a discrete-time stochastic control system.

description: This webpage provides related study participant information leaflets/consent forms, study instruments, and completed CONSORT (2010 checklist of information to include when reporting a pilot or feasibility trial*) and STROBE (checklist of items that should be included in reports of observational studies) checklists. Abstract Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one cause of death globally. Whilst initiatives such as Ireland’s ‘Chronic Disease Management Programme’ have helped in the fight against CVD, a more intensive approach may be required to meet high-risk patients’ needs. The High-Risk Prevention Programme (HRPP), led by the Irish Heart Foundation, University College Dublin (UCD), and Ireland’s Health Service Executive (HSE) aims to design, deliver, and evaluate an intensive, six-week behaviour change programme among people at high risk of CVD living in Irish communities. In this paper, we aim to describe the HRPP intervention and the approach that will be used to evaluate it. Methods: The HRPP has been informed by an inclusive co-design process involving health provider and patient input, has been operating since February 2021 and will run until February 2023. Six general practices have agreed to take part in the project, and it is planned that 400 patients at high risk of CVD will participate. Participating patients attend either a practice nurse or health promotion coordinator-led six-week one-to-one consultation programme focusing on self-management of health issues. Feasibility, acceptability, and likely effectiveness will be assessed by means of a process evaluation involving a quantitative survey (patient health and health behaviours assessments) at baseline and 12 months, and in-depth qualitative interviews with patients, practice nurses and general practitioners. Conclusions: Project findings will inform whether a general practice-based intervention to prevent CVD among at-risk patients is feasible, acceptable in practice, has a positive impact, and what outcome measures might form the focus of future research.

description: We demonstrate that activation-induced manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with quantitative determination of the longitudinal relaxation time (qAIM-MRI) reveals the severity of Parkinson’s disease (PD) in mice. We first show that manganese ion-accumulation depends on neuronal activity. A highly active region was then observed by qAIM-MRI in the caudate-putamen in PD-model mice that was significantly correlated to the severity of PD, suggesting its involvement in the expression of PD symptoms.

description: Objectif : Le but de ce travail est de déterminer et d’analyser le rôle de la sage-femme dans l’accompagnement des pères à la suite d’un deuil périnatal. Méthodologie : Cette revue partielle de littérature s’appuie sur huit articles sélectionnés sur les bases de données CINAHL et PubMed, grâce à la stratégie de recherche. Le corpus est constitué de sept études qualitatives et d’une étude quantitative, analysées selon les grilles de Côté & Turgeon (2002) ainsi que Fortin & Gagnon (2016). La synthèse des résultats a été mise en lien avec la Théorie socio-écologique du deuil des Hommes ainsi que le modèle de soin « Woman-centred care ». Résultats : Divers facteurs influencent le processus de deuil des pères. Parmi eux, on peut compter l'environnement hospitalier, la reconnaissance légale et sociale ainsi que l’expérience propre du deuil. La prise en soin optimale de cette population cible se base sur l’individualisation et la continuité des soins ainsi que sur les attitudes soignantes appropriées. De plus, la reconnaissance de l’enfant décédé ainsi que les rituels effectués autour de la perte de grossesse jouent un rôle dans l’accompagnement sage-femme. Conclusion : Ce travail met en évidence la complexité de l’accompagnement des pères endeuillés ainsi que le rôle central de la sage-femme tout au long du processus de deuil. De nombreuses recommandations pour la pratique sage-femme sont énoncées.

description: The Marketplace covers a wide range of different tools and there are useful training materials. However, it may be hard to navigate: it's not so accessibly for lay SSH users. Only eight tools in the Marketplace are currently presented in Spanish. Besides, most tools include minimal or none descriptions. These descriptions do not include key information such as level of complexity. We propose 1) to identify current problems in user experience, 2) to provide and design a prototype with icons for different levels of difficulty, and 3) to provide a sample of clear descriptions in Spanish for less tech-savvy users.

description: This study aimed to present the first results of genetic analysis of the selection experiment for production traits of a synthetic breed, Cunistar-MDL (Minimum Disease Level), achieved in a private farm in Côte d’Ivoire. Production parameters studied were weight at birth (W0), individual weight at weaning or at 30 days (W30), individual weight at 60 days (W60), and individual weight at 90 days (W90). Average daily gain before weaning (ADG0-30) and daily average gain after weaning (ADG30-6O) were also analyzed. The results revealed that total
number of animals born alive per calving was 7.50. Mortality rate before weaning was 16.91 %, while mortality rate after weaning was 2.00 %. The average weight of the litter at birth was 156.80 grams. At weaning, kits had an average weight of 530.62 grams. In general, all traits measured were significantly influenced by non genetic factors as sex, birth year, birth season and mother's age. Heritability values ranged from 0.56 for weight at 90
days (W90) to 0.81 for weight at 30 days (W30). For growth they varied between 0.33 for average daily gain before weaning (ADG0-30) and 0.57 for average daily gain after weaning (ADG30-60). Phenotypic correlations between weights at different age ranged from -0.09 (correlation between W0 and W60) to 0.83 (correlation between W60 and W90). Genetic correlations ranged from -0.43 (correlation between W0 and W60) to 0.84 (correlation between W60 and W90). For growth in both periods (pre-weaning and post-weaning), phenotypic and genetic correlations were moderate and positives.

description: In many different applications of group decision-making, individual ranking agents or judges are able to rank only a small subset of all available candidates. However, as we argue in this article, the aggregation of these incomplete ordinal rankings into a group consensus has not been adequately addressed. We propose an axiomatic method to aggregate a set of incomplete rankings into a consensus ranking; the method is a generalization of an existing approach to aggregate complete rankings. More specifically, we introduce a set of natural axioms that must be satisfied by a distance between two incomplete rankings; prove the uniqueness and existence of a distance satisfying such axioms; formulate the aggregation of incomplete rankings as an optimization problem; propose and test a specific algorithm to solve a variation of this problem where the consensus ranking does not contain ties; and show that the consensus ranking obtained by our axiomatic approach is more intuitive than the consensus ranking obtained by other approaches.

description: A simple method of electrochemical bromination of a series of cyclic and acyclic enes (styrene and substituted styrenes, stilbene, indene, and cyclooctene) in a biphasic water–chloroform mixture mediated by bromide/bromine redox system is reported. Aqueous 25% NaBr/H2SO4 is used as the electrolyte. Regio- and stereoselective dibromination of enes is achieved. Moderate to excellent yields of the product (83–98%) is obtained depending on the substrate. Electrolyte reuse has also been demonstrated successfully using HBr in the dibromination of styrene.

description: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease affecting the cartilage of over 15% of Canadians. Synovial fluid mesenchymal progenitor cells (sfMPCs) are present in joints and are thought to contribute to healing. OA sfMPCs have a greater proliferative ability but decreased chondrogenic potential. However, little is known about the factors influencing/regulating the differences between normal and OA sfMPCs. Recently, our lab has shown that sfMPC chondrogenic differentiation in vitro is favorably biased toward a similar osmotic environment as they experience in vivo. The current study now examines the expression and functionality of a variety of ion channels in sfMPCs derived from normal individuals and early OA patients. Results indicated that there is differential ion channel regulation at the functional level and expression level in early OA sfMPCs. All ion channels were upregulated in early OA compared to normal sfMPCs with the exception of KCNMA1 at the mRNA level. At the protein level, TRPV4 was over expressed in early OA sfMPCs, while KCNJ12 and KCNMA1 were unchanged between normal and early OA sfMPCs. At the functional level, the inward rectifying potassium channel was under expressed in early OA sfMPCs, however the membrane potential was unchanged between normal and early OA sfMPCs. In the synovial environment itself, a number of differences in ion concentration between normal and early OA synovial fluid were observed. These findings suggest that normal and OA progenitor cells demonstrate functional differences in how they interact with the synovial ion environment.

description: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease affecting the cartilage of over 15% of Canadians. Synovial fluid mesenchymal progenitor cells (sfMPCs) are present in joints and are thought to contribute to healing. OA sfMPCs have a greater proliferative ability but decreased chondrogenic potential. However, little is known about the factors influencing/regulating the differences between normal and OA sfMPCs. Recently, our lab has shown that sfMPC chondrogenic differentiation in vitro is favorably biased toward a similar osmotic environment as they experience in vivo. The current study now examines the expression and functionality of a variety of ion channels in sfMPCs derived from normal individuals and early OA patients. Results indicated that there is differential ion channel regulation at the functional level and expression level in early OA sfMPCs. All ion channels were upregulated in early OA compared to normal sfMPCs with the exception of KCNMA1 at the mRNA level. At the protein level, TRPV4 was over expressed in early OA sfMPCs, while KCNJ12 and KCNMA1 were unchanged between normal and early OA sfMPCs. At the functional level, the inward rectifying potassium channel was under expressed in early OA sfMPCs, however the membrane potential was unchanged between normal and early OA sfMPCs. In the synovial environment itself, a number of differences in ion concentration between normal and early OA synovial fluid were observed. These findings suggest that normal and OA progenitor cells demonstrate functional differences in how they interact with the synovial ion environment.

description: This study investigates the potential health risk assessment of heavy metals consumption through wild plants (WPs) irrigated with wastewater and fresh water in the Bannu district, Pakistan. Therefore, soil and WP samples were collected and analyzed for heavy metals by atomic absorption spectrophotometer (Varian FAAS-240). Wastewater irrigated soil showed an elevated level for Cd (5.05–14.50 mg/Kg) and Ni (99.35–104.85 mg/Kg), while Cd (3.35–4.84 mg/Kg) concentration in the fresh water irrigated soil also surpassed the maximum allowable limits (MAL) set by the World Health Organization. Similarly, selected wastewater irrigated plants and fresh water irrigated plants also exceeded the MAL set by the Food and Agriculture Organization for Cd, Pb, and Cr (except for Cr in Vicia sativa). Heavy metal concentrations through WPs consumption were evaluated for the health risk index (HRI). The HRI value for each selected WPs was <1. However, total HRI values through WPs consumption was >1. Therefore, WPs consumption of the study area may pose a potential threat to the local community.

description: We elucidated the role of collecting duct kinin B2 receptor (B2R) in the development of salt-sensitivity and angiotensin II (ANG II)-induced hypertension. To this end, we used a Cre-Lox recombination strategy to generate mice lacking Bdkrb2 gene for B2R in the collecting duct (Hoxb7-Cretg/+:Bdkrb2flox/flox). In 3 groups of control (Bdkrb2flox/flox) and 3 groups of UBBdkrb2−/− mice, systolic blood pressure (SBP) responses to high salt intake (4 or 8% NaCl; HS) were monitored by radiotelemetry in comparison with standard salt diet (0.4% NaCl) prior to and during subcutaneous ANG II infusion (1000 ng/min/kg) via osmotic minipumps. High salt intakes alone for 2 weeks did not alter SBP in either strain. ANG II significantly increased SBP equally in control (121 ± 2 to 156 ± 3 mmHg) and UBBdkrb2−/− mice (120 ± 2 to 153 ± 2 mmHg). The development of ANG II-induced hypertension was exacerbated by 4%HS in both control (125 ± 3 to 164 ± 5 mmHg) and UBBdkrb2−/− mice (124 ± 2 to 162 ± 3 mmHg) during 2 weeks. Interestingly, 8%HS caused a more profound and earlier ANG II-induced hypertension in UBBdkrb2−/− (129 ± 2 to 166 ± 3 mmHg) as compared to control (128 ± 2 to 158 ± 2 mmHg) and it was accompanied by body weight loss and increased mortality. In conclusion, targeted inactivation of B2R in the renal collecting duct does not cause salt-sensitivity; however, collecting duct B2R attenuates the hypertensive actions of ANG II under conditions of very high salt intake.

description: Objective: To assess the synergistic effects of gene polymorphisms of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) on essential hypertension (EH) in Kazakhs in Xinjiang. Methods: A cross-sectional case-control association study was conducted in 52 1 hypertensive and 623 normotensive subjects of Kazakh ethnicity on eight common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) interspersed over five genes of the RAAS. SNPs were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Interactions among the SNPs were analyzed by the multifactor dimensionality reduction method (MDR). Results: In single-locus analysis, subjects with AGT -6G, ACE D, and CYP11B2 -344C had increased susceptibility to EH (OR: 1.249; 1.425; 1.201). When subgrouped by sex, males with the t allele of REN Taq I had decreased risk for EH (OR: 0.529), and those with AGT -6G and CYP11B2 -344 C had increased risk for EH (OR: 1.498; 1.449). In females, carrying ACE D increased the risk for EH. (OR: 1.327). In six AGT haplotypes, H1 was protective, while H3 increased susceptibility to EH (OR: 0.683; 2.025). Interaction analysis by MDR showed that there was a strong synergistic effect between ACE I/D and CY11B2 (T-344C) and a moderate interaction between both ACE I/D and CY11B2 T-344C and AGT A-6G. Conclusions: There was a strong synergistic effect between ACE I/D and CY11B2 T-344C and a moderate effect between both ACE I/D and CY11B2 T-344C and AGT A-6G. AGT -6G, ACE D, and CY11B2 -344C increased susceptibility to EH. REN Taq I, AGT -6G, CY11B2 -344 C and ACE D were associated with male and female EH, respectively. H1 and H3 of AGT were protective and risk haplotypes, respectively.

description: Ushbu maqolada dostonning oltinchi musofir tomonidan aytilgan hikoya ancha tarbiyaviy ahamiyatga molikdir. Bu hikoya ikki qarama-qarshi harakterlarni ko`rsatadi. Ular bir hil sharoitda ish tutadilar. Ana shu sharoitda bu harakterlar o`rtasidagi ziddiyat aniq ko`rinadi. Shunungdek, bu asarda ertak motivlari asosida berilgan hikoyadagi Muqbil ijobiy timsol bo'lib, ma'nosi ham iqbolli, bahtli degani. Mudbir esa salbiy timsol bo'lib, ishi orqaga ketuvchi , bahtsiz, yolg'on gapiruvchi kimsadir. Bu hikoyada Muqbil o'zining yahshi amallari va halollik, to'g'ri so'zligi bilan kamol topadi, Mudbir esa o'zining xudbinligi, qora niyatliligi bilan zavol topadi.
description: The story told in this article by the sixth alien of the epic has a much greater educational significance. This story shows two opposing characters. They behave in the same conditions. It is in these conditions that the conflict between these characters is clearly visible. It should be noted that in this work, the alternation in the story given based on the fairy tale, Mukbil is a positive embodiment, and also means wise, happy. And Mudbir is a negative symbol, which means one whose work is backward, unhappy, deceitful. In this story, Mukbil thrives thanks to his good deeds and honesty, the right word, while Mudbir will ruin his life thanks to his selfishness, blackness.
