description: Population studies often estimate mammography use using women's self- reports. In one North Carolina county, we compared self-report surveys with a second method-counting mammograms per population-for 1987 and 1989. Estimates from self-reports (35% in 1987, 55% in 1989) were considerably higher than those from mammogram counts (20% in 1987, 36% in 1989). We then confirmed 66% of self-reports in the past year. Self-reported use is more accurate regarding whether a woman has had a mammogram than when she had it, but self- reports accurately measure change over time.

description: This study reports six new types of cleaning interactions among tropical reef fish species at São Tomé Island, and confirms previously reported interactions for this area. Spicara melanurus was recorded as a cleaner for the first time, and Abudefduf saxatilis was confirmed in this role, following reports from the Southwest Atlantic. Individuals belonging to the family Labridae were the most commonly-observed cleaners, involved in over 85% of recorded interactions. Juveniles of Bodianus speciosus played a key role as cleaners, interacting with at least seven client species. In addition, some of the client fishes, including Paranthias furcifer and Acanthurus monroviae, interacted with at least four cleaner fish species. All cleaner fish species reported in this study were facultative; obligate cleaners appear to be absent from this region.

description: Gravitational waves are perturbations in the spacetime that propagate at the speed of light. The study of such phenomenon is interesting because many cosmological processes and astrophysical objects, such as binary systems, are potential sources of gravitational radiation and can have their emissions detected in the near future by the next generation of interferometric detectors. Concerning the astrophysical objects, an interesting case is when there are several sources emitting in such a way that there is a superposition of signals, resulting in a smooth spectrum which spans a wide range of frequencies, the so-called stochastic background. In this paper, we are concerned with the stochastic backgrounds generated by compact binaries (i.e. binary systems formed by neutron stars and black holes) in the coalescing phase. In particular, we obtain such backgrounds by employing a new method developed in our previous studies.

Pregnancy-induced hypertension in North Carolina, 1988 and 1989.
Creators: name: Savitz, D A
name: Zhang, J
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: INTRODUCTION: Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) is a highly prevalent pregnancy complication with adverse effects on maternal and infant health. Epidemiologic research concerning its etiology is limited. METHODS: Birth records from North Carolina for the period 1988 through 1989 included an indication of the presence of PIH. The risk of PIH was examined in relation to several maternal characteristics and exposures, including reproductive history, demographic characteristics, and tobacco use during pregnancy. Risk ratio estimates, adjusted for confounders, were calculated contrasting PIH among exposed vs unexposed women. RESULTS: The overall risk of PIH was 43.1 per 1000 births, with multiple pregnancies, nulliparity, and advanced maternal age associated with markedly increased risks. Tobacco use was inversely associated with PIH, and Blacks and Whites were at virtually equal risk. CONCLUSIONS: Problems in diagnosis and classification impede research in this area, with birth certificates limited in quality and breadth of information. Nonetheless, several patterns emerged that are worthy of further epidemiologic evaluation using more sophisticated designs.

description: Context. Observations suggest that exoplanets such as HD 189733b form clouds in their atmospheres which have a strong feedback onto their thermodynamical and chemical structure, and overall appearance. Aims. Inspired by mineral cloud modelling efforts for Brown Dwarf atmospheres, we present the first spatially varying kinetic cloud model structures for HD 189733b. Methods. We apply a 2-model approach using results from a 3D global radiation-hydrodynamic simulation of the atmosphere as input for a detailed, kinetic cloud formation model. Sampling the 3D global atmosphere structure with 1D trajectories allows us to model the spatially varying cloud structure on HD 189733b. The resulting cloud properties enable the calculation of the scattering and absorption properties of the clouds. Results. We present local and global cloud structure and property maps for HD 189733b. The calculated cloud properties show variations in composition, size and number density of cloud particles which are strongest between the dayside and nightside. Cloud particles are mainly composed of a mix of materials with silicates being the main component. Cloud properties, and hence the local gas composition, change dramatically where temperature inversions occur locally. The cloud opacity is dominated by absorption in the upper atmosphere and scattering at higher pressures in the model. The calculated 8μm single scattering Albedo of the cloud particles are consistent with Spitzer bright regions. The cloud particles scattering properties suggest that they would sparkle/reflect a midnight blue colour at optical wavelengths.

description: BACKGROUND: Obesity is more prevalent among Black women than Black men, but there is little information on the correlates of obesity in Blacks. This study describes the relations of sociodemographic factors and health behaviors to body mass index in a southern, Black population. METHODS: In 1988, a community probability sample of 1784 Black adults, aged 25 to 50, was examined in Pitt County, NC. RESULTS: More women than men were at least 20% overweight (57% vs 36%). The relation of socioeconomic status (a composite of education and occupation) to age-adjusted body mass index level was inverse in women but not in men. Body mass index did not differ with either current energy intake or energy expenditure. Smokers and drinkers had lower age-adjusted levels than non-smokers and abstainers. CONCLUSIONS: Since the excess body mass index levels associated with low socioeconomic status in women could not be explained after controlling for adverse health behaviors, further epidemiologic study of risk factors for obesity in Black women is recommended.
Parity effect in a mesoscopic Fermi gas

description: We develop a quantitative analytic theory that accurately describes the odd-even effect observed experimentally in a one-dimensional, trapped Fermi gas with a small number of particles [G. Zürn et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 175302 (2013)]. We find that the underlying physics is similar to the parity effect known to exist in ultrasmall mesoscopic superconducting grains and atomic nuclei. However, in contrast to superconducting nanograins, the density (Hartree) correction dominates over the superconducting pairing fluctuations and leads to a much more pronounced odd-even effect in the mesoscopic, trapped Fermi gas. We calculate the corresponding parity parameter and separation energy using both perturbation theory and a path integral framework in the mesoscopic limit, generalized to account for the effects of the trap, pairing fluctuations, and Hartree corrections. Our results are in an excellent quantitative agreement with experimental data and exact diagonalization. Finally, we discuss a few-to-many particle crossover between the perturbative mesoscopic regime and non-perturbative many-body physics that the system approaches in the thermodynamic limit.

Publisher: name: Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR)
Year: 2017

description: This paper deals with the sipunculan species collected from 17 stations between 15 and 70 m depths in the Aegean and Levantine Seas. A total of eight sipunculan species were found in the area, six species in the Aegean Sea and four species in the Levantine Sea. The population densities of sipunculans at stations ranged from 10 to 300 ind.m-2. The maximum density was estimated to be 160 ind.m-2 in the Aegean Sea and 300 ind.m-2 in the Levantine Sea. The most dominant species in the area was Onchnesoma steenstrupii steenstrupii, comprising 84.1 and 89.4% of the total number of specimens in the Aegean and Levantine Seas, respectively. Two major sipunculan assemblages were found in the area and the main environmental factors controlling these assemblages were depth, sediment grain size and the concentration of orthophosphate-phosphorus. Pearson correlations between abundances of the eight sipunculan species and abiotic variables indicated that the number of individuals of Phascolion (Phascolion) strombus strombus and Sipunculus (Sipunculus) nudus were significantly correlated with the gravel and coarse sand percentages of the sediment. The present study included two alien sipunculan species; Apionsoma (Apionsoma) misakianum and Aspidosiphon (Aspidosiphon) mexicanus in the Levantine Sea. Brief descriptions of the species and their distributional characteristics are given.
Derivative of the light frequency shift as a measure of spacetime curvature for gravitational wave detection

description: The measurement of frequency shifts for light beams exchanged between two test masses nearly in free fall is at the heart of gravitational wave detection. It is envisaged that the derivative of the frequency shift is in fact limited by differential forces acting on those test masses. We calculate the derivative of the frequency shift with a fully covariant, gauge-independent and coordinate-free method. This method is general and does not require a congruence of nearby beams' null geodesics as done in previous work. We show that the derivative of the parallel transport is the only means by which gravitational effects shows up in the frequency shift. This contribution is given as an integral of the Riemann tensor --the only physical observable of curvature-- along the beam's geodesic. The remaining contributions are: the difference of velocities, the difference of non-gravitational forces, and finally fictitious forces, either locally at the test masses or non-locally integrated along the beam's geodesic. As an application relevant to gravitational wave detection, we work out the frequency shift in the local Lorentz frame of nearby geodesics.

Year: 1992

description: OBJECTIVES: Antisocial and criminal behavior are increasing among US youth, especially among females. Thus, questions arise concerning whether youthful female deviant behavior eventually will have negative behavioral and emotional consequences for the later children of these women. METHODS: Associations between the severity of early female antisocial behavior (including both drug-related and non-drug related offenses) and the later behavioral and emotional health of the children of these women were examined among 1425 mother-child pairs of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. RESULTS: Multiple linear regression procedures indicated a significant positive relationship between the severity of the mothers' early non-drug-related offenses and the later severity of the children's scores on the Antisocial, Hyperactive, Anxious/Depressed, Headstrong, Peer Conflict/Social Withdrawal, Immature Dependency, and Total Problem subscales of the Behavior Problem Index. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated an association between the antisocial behavior of female youth and the later behavioral and emotional problems of the children of these women. Future research needs to determine the mechanisms underlying the intergenerational transmission of these types of problems so that effective preventive and therapeutic public health practices may be designed and implemented.

description: In this study, the effect of high stocking density and high salinity levels on haematological and serum protein profile of 65 Mugil cephalus was evaluated. After acclimation, fish were divided into three groups. The group A (n = 15), representing the control, was transferred into a 800 L tank at a density of 3.4 kg.m-3 (low density) and it was maintained to 35 of salinity. Group B (n = 35) was placed into 800 L tank at a density of 8.4 kg.m-3 (high density) and it was maintained to 35 of salinity. Group C (n = 15) was transferred into 800 L tank at a density of 3.4 kg.m-3 (low density) and subjected to 45 of salinity. Haematological and protein profiles were determined following blood sampling. Both experimental conditions influenced the values of red blood cells, haemoglobin, haematocrit, white blood cells, thrombocytes, serum total protein, albumin , α-globulins (P < 0.05). The values of β-globulins statistically changed (P < 0.05) under high salinity levels condition. In group B, the disappearance of prealbumin and γ-globulin fraction occurred. Statistical lower levels of prealbumin and γ-globulins (P < 0.05) were found in group C than control group. These results highlighted that high stocking density and salinity levels represent stressful conditions that lead to many physiological perturbations in mullet resulting in an impairment of mullet's oxygen-carrying capacity and immunity.

description: Skeletal deformities are commonly encountered in both cultured and wild fish. These deformations are usually rare in wild populations and generally reflect an imbalance in the environment that the organism living in. Spinal malformations are the most frequent type of deformity seen in fish, essentially spinal curvatures, and may be caused by numerous factors, including pollutants and chemicals, abiotic environmental conditions, water flow rate, bacterial factors, nutrition deficiencies, swimming activity and swim bladder malformations. Many researchers report that all of these factors cause malformations in different regions of the axial skeleton, which negatively affects the biological performance and marketing image of the fish. This study documents, for the first time, vertebral column curvatures (lordosis, kyphosis and scoliosis) in wild Trachinus draco collected from North Tunisian waters (Bizerte bay). Different regions of the vertebral column are affected by these kinds of spinal deformations as detected by digital radiography (X-ray) and gross dissection to reveal different spinal curvatures. Three basic types of spinal deformities, assorted by the direction of their curvature, were observed: kyphosis (dorsal curvature), lordosis (ventral curvature), and scoliosis (lateral curvature). Out of a total of 200 fish, 12 showed different types of deformities (9 males and 3 females), no significant difference between sexes (p = 0.074). Factors potentially causing spinal deformities of Trachinus draco are discussed on the basis of the literature trying to establish any correlation causing these anomalies and providing new data which could be used as an input for further studies.

description: A first attempt to estimate population densities of Holothuria atra and H. pardalis in relation to the spatial arrangement of individuals was made around Clipperton atoll. Seven sites of 120 m2 each with four transects were examined, counting the individuals per holothurian group: in total 1711 of which 1199 H. atra and 512 H. pardalis. The Morisita index of aggregation was applied to identify the spatial arrangement of individuals: random, uniform or clumped. Holothuria atra was found all around the atoll and densities varied between 0.03 to 4.78 ind m-2. It showed a clumped distribution on the eastern side of the atoll, and random and uniform patterns on the western side. Its broad distribution was attributed to its being a 'habitat generalist species', its tolerance to high temperatures, and its ability reproduce both sexually and asexually. Holothuria pardalis was found in only one site with 4.27 ind m-2 and a clumped distribution. The correlation of the Morisita index and density values of both species revealed that high densities were associated with a high degree of aggregation. This result led us to hypothesize that the clumped distribution of holothurians might provide protection against predators. Other ecological factors causing aggregations are discussed.

description: This research describes and discusses bone changes observed in a disarticulated adult lumbar vertebra, recovered in one of the multiple assemblages of commingled remains identified in the hospital cemetery of the Third Order of Our Lady of Carmo, which operated between 1801 and 1869. Bone lesions are described in detail through macroscopic observation and multiscale X-ray nano-CT. The lower surface and lateral aspects of the vertebral body show multiple destructive foci with well-defined contours, including a “cavity” that measures approximately 2.5 cm in diameter. The formation of osteophytes, especially on the left side, along with new bone is also observable. The changes are compatible with a probable case of vertebral tuberculosis. Malignant tumours were ruled out through the differential diagnosis, one cannot completely exclude pyogenic vertebral osteomyelitis, as it may cause similar erosive foci. This case clearly demonstrates that disarticulated human remains originating from secondary deposition should not be excluded from palaeopathological studies. They can provide important information about the health status of populations. The inability of analysing the distribution pattern of lesions throughout the skeleton was the biggest limitation to a more accurate diagnosis. Future research, contextualising and complementing the palaeopathological findings and commingled remains analysis with metagenomic analysis and historical data, will offer a comprehensive view of the epidemiological profile of 19th-century Porto, including pathogen/disease prevalence.

Gravitomagnetic response of an irrotational body to an applied tidal field

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The deformation of a nonrotating body resulting from the application of a tidal field is measured by two sets of Love numbers associated with the gravitoelectric and gravitomagnetic pieces of the tidal field, respectively. The gravitomagnetic Love numbers were previously computed for fluid bodies, under the assumption that the fluid is in a strict hydrostatic equilibrium that requires the complete absence of internal motions. A more realistic configuration, however, is an irrotational state that establishes, in the course of time, internal motions driven by the gravitomagnetic interaction. We recompute the gravitomagnetic Love numbers for this irrotational state, and show that they are dramatically different from those associated with the strict hydrostatic equilibrium: While the Love numbers are positive in the case of strict hydrostatic equilibrium, they are negative in the irrotational state. Our computations are carried out in the context of perturbation theory in full general relativity, and in a post-Newtonian approximation that reproduces the behavior of the Love numbers when the body's compactness is small.

description: OBJECTIVES: We sought to describe prenatal care use in the United States and in three European countries where accessibility to prenatal care has been reported to be better than it is in the United States. METHODS: We analyzed the 1980 US National Natality Survey, the 1981 French National Natality Survey, a 1979 sample of Danish births, and a survey performed from 1979 to 1980 in one Belgian province. RESULTS: The proportion of women who began prenatal care late (after 15 weeks) is highest in the United States (21.2%) and lowest in France (4.0%). This contrasts with the median number of visits, which is greater in the United States (11) than in Denmark (10) or in France (7). Across all maternal ages, parities, and educational levels, late initiation of prenatal care is more frequent in the United States, and median number of visits in the United States is equal to or higher than that in the other countries. CONCLUSIONS: In countries that offer nearly universal access to prenatal care, women begin care earlier during pregnancy and have fewer visits than women in the United States.

description: The marine cryptogenic species Aplysia dactylomela was recorded in the Mediterranean Sea in 2002 for the first time. Since then, this species has rapidly colonized the eastern Mediterranean, successfully establishing stable populations in the area. Aplysia dactylomela is a heterobranch mollusc found in the Atlantic Ocean, and commonly known as the spotted sea hare. This species is a voracious herbivorous with generalist feeding habits, possessing efficient chemical defence strategies. These facts probably promoted the acclimatation of this species in the Mediterranean ecosystems. Here, we report three new records of this species in the Balearic Islands and Catalan coast (NE Spain). This data was available due to the use of citizen science platforms such as GROC (Catalan Opisthobranch Research Group). These are the first records of this species in Spain and the third in the western Mediterranean Sea, thus reinforcing the efficient, fast, and progressive colonization ability of this sea hare. We have demonstrated that citizen science is a valuable tool for the early awareness of new colonizations as well as for monitoring the advance and settlement of new populations of cryptogenic species.

description: Motivated by their application to holographic RG flows and hairy black holes in Einstein-scalar systems, we present a collection of superpotentials driving the dynamics of $\mathcal{N}=2$ and $\mathcal{N}=1$ four-dimensional supergravities. These theories arise as consistent truncations of the electric/magnetic families of $\textrm{CSO}(p,q,r)_{c}$ maximal supergravities, with ${p+q+r=8}$, discovered by Dall'Agata et al. The $\mathcal{N}=2$ and $\mathcal{N}=1$ truncations describe $\textrm{SU}(3)$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{2} \times \textrm{SO}(3)$ invariant sectors, respectively, and contain AdS$_4$ solutions preserving $\mathcal{N}=1,2,3,4$ supersymmetry within the full theories, as well as various gauge symmetries. Realisations in terms of non-geometric type IIB as well as geometric massive type IIA backgrounds are also discussed. The aim of this note is to provide easy to handle superpotentials that facilitate the study of gravitational and gauge aspects of the $\textrm{CSO}(p,q,r)_{c}$ maximal supergravities avoiding the technicalities required in their construction.

description: An exceptionally high density of gelatinous organisms was observed in May 2015, off the coasts of Doğanbey, central Aegean Sea. Eight gelatinous species were found in the accumulation, with salps being the main component. The hydromedusae Solmaris corona and Aequorea forskalea, the siphonophore Nanomia bijuga and the ctenophore Leucothea sp. are recorded for the first time from the Aegean Sea. The hydromedusa S. corona, the siphonophores Hippopodius hippopus and N. bijuga, the salp Salpa maxima and the ctenophore Leucothea sp. are first records for the Turkish coasts. We suggest that the various life histories and different ecological traits of the gelatinous components in the accumulation are indicators of an apparent bloom, i.e., the organisms bloomed/increased their abundances in response to different processes and were aggregated only subsequently at the coast, due to strong southwesterly winds and north-eastward currents originating a few days prior to our observations. The offshore area facing Doğanbey is characterized by a large gyre coupled with one of the most vigorous upwelling zones in the Mediterranean Sea, therefore creating favourable conditions for the aggregation of salps and the presence of siphonophores.

description: The present study aims to investigate the effects of pollution on the oxidative status of the natural species Venerupis decussata in the southern coast of Tunisia coast. Clams were collected each month during summer 2014 from two contrasting sites (S1: Zarrat coast region and S2: Boughrara lagoon). The concentration of copper (Cu), lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in digestive gland of clams collected from the S2 was significantly higher from those of S1. We found an increase in malondialdehyde and advanced oxidation protein products levels in digestive gland homogenates of clams from S2 compared to S1. An increase in glutathione, non-protein thiol, metallothionein and vitamin C levels was also observed. Alteration of the antioxidant system in clams sampled from S2 was also confirmed by the significant increase of catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities. Further, a decrease of neurotoxicity biomarker, acetylcholinesterase activity, was also observed in clams collected from Boughrara lagoon. The principal component analysis of biomarker responses made a distinction between clams deployed in S2 and those from the reference site S1. These spatial differentiations were confirmed by histopathological observations and DNA damage variations. We can consider these parameters as the appropriate responses to evaluate the effects of pollutants on clams, in particular V. decussata, which can be used for the bio-surveillance in the coastal and lagoon regions.

description: OBJECTIVES. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is known to be positively related to moderate alcohol consumption from studies in selected populations. This study describes the association in a representative sample of the US adult population. METHODS. Stratification and multivariate regression analyses were used to examine HDL cholesterol levels and alcohol consumption. RESULTS. Fewer women than men reported consumption of alcohol at any frequency. Similar percentages of Whites and Blacks reported alcohol consumption. Age-adjusted mean HDL cholesterol levels were higher among alcohol drinkers than among nondrinkers in all sex-race strata. Mean HDL cholesterol levels of Whites and Blacks of both sexes increased consistently with increased frequency of consumption of beer, wine, and liquor. With age, education, body mass index, smoking, and physical activity controlled for, there were higher age-adjusted HDL cholesterol levels with increasing reported quantities of alcohol consumed. Daily or weekly use of alcohol led to an increase of 5.1 mg/dL in mean HDL cholesterol level, whereas consumption of 1 g of alcohol led to an increast of 0.87 mg/dL. CONCLUSION. Even if there is a causal association between alcohol consumption and higher HDL cholesterol levels, it is suggested that efforts to reduce coronary heart disease risks concentrate on the cessation of smoking and weight control.

description: The tropical Atlantic fangtooth moray Enchelycore anatina (Lowe, 1838) (Muraenidae) has naturally extended its range into the Mediterranean in the last decades. The record of a third specimen of the fangtooth moray, in the coastal waters of southeast Adriatic Sea, results in listing the species as established in the Adriatic Sea. The caught specimen was male with gonads in post spawning stage, indicating successful maturation and possible reproduction of the species in these waters.
Tuning target selection algorithms to improve galaxy redshift estimates

description: We showcase machine learning (ML) inspired target selection algorithms to determine which of all potential targets should be selected first for spectroscopic follow up. Efficient target selection can improve the ML redshift uncertainties as calculated on an independent sample, while requiring less targets to be observed. We compare the ML targeting algorithms with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) target order, and with a random targeting algorithm. The ML inspired algorithms are constructed iteratively by estimating which of the remaining target galaxies will be most difficult for the machine learning methods to accurately estimate redshifts using the previously observed data. This is performed by predicting the expected redshift error and redshift offset (or bias) of all of the remaining target galaxies. We find that the predicted values of bias and error are accurate to better than 10-30% of the true values, even with only limited training sample sizes. We construct a hypothetical follow-up survey and find that some of the ML targeting algorithms are able to obtain the same redshift predictive power with 2-3 times less observing time, as compared to that of the SDSS, or random, target selection algorithms. The reduction in the required follow up resources could allow for a change to the follow-up strategy, for example by obtaining deeper spectroscopy, which could improve ML redshift estimates for deeper test data.

description: The present study which determined the fecundity of the four-spot megrim, Lepidorhombus boscii in the Aegean Sea was carried out between May 2009 and April 2010. In total 1864 individuals were collected, from which 1283 (68.83%) were females and 521 (27.95%) males while 60 (3.22%) failed to be determined in terms of sexuality with sex ratio (♀:♂) of 1:0.41. Gonadosomatic indices of females and males were observed to be maximum in April and February, respectively. Eyed-side ovarian lobes were significantly heavier than blind-side ovarian ones (paired t-test; df = 33, t = -8.755, P < 0.05). Total fecundity ranges from 29 977 to 282 937 oocytes per female, with an average value of 89 132 ± 58 703. The total fecundity increased exponentially with length (F = 5943.8 × e 0.1152×L) and linearly with weight (F = 731.87 × W + 8484.8).
