description: Objective: The Self-Report Symptom Inventory (SRSI) is a new symptom validity test that, unlike other symptom over-reporting measures, contains both genuine symptom and pseudosymptom scales. We tested whether its pseudosymptom scale is sensitive to genuine psychopathology and evaluated its discriminant validity in an instructed feigning experiment that relied on carefully selected forensic inpatients (n = 40). Method: We administered the SRSI twice: we instructed patients to respond honestly to the SRSI (T1) and then to exaggerate their symptoms in a convincing way (T2). Results: On T1, the pseudosymptom scale was insensitive to patients’ actual psychopathology. Two patients (5%) had scores exceeding the liberal cut point (specificity = 0.95) and no patient scored above the more stringent cut point (specificity = 1.0). Also, the SRSI cut scores and ratio index discriminated well between honest (T1) and exaggerated (T2) responses (AUCs were 0.98 and 0.95, respectively). Conclusions: Given the relatively few false positives, our data suggest that the pseudosymptom scale of the SRSI is a useful measure of symptom over-reporting in forensic treatment settings.

description: We present a design for an acoustic metamaterial that mimics the behaviour of the active cochlea. This material is composed of a size-graded array of cylindrical subwavelength resonators, has similar dimensions to the cochlea and is able to reproduce the frequency separation of audible frequencies. Non-linear amplification is introduced to the model in order to replicate the behaviour of the cochlear amplifier. This formulation takes the form of a fluid-coupled array of Hopf resonators. We seek solutions based on a modal decomposition, so as to retain the physically-derived coupling between resonators.

description: This thesis examines the ways regendering, or ‘genderswapping’, is performed as an adaptational creative choice for fans and creators. Regendered works, such as the TV series Elementary, illustrate the complexity of representation, and the ongoing imbalanced landscape of media. I develop a more cohesive understanding of the fannish counterpublic and its complex approaches to creativity and gender by grounding the research and data collection in fan studies, gender studies, and literary theory. This thesis uses interviews, surveys, and observations of fannish communities, and close readings of regendered texts and media, to develop two theories of regendered effects. One: the position of regendered work within fannish counterpublics is one centred on the conflicts and tensions between lived experiences and the media landscape, performed through the creative forms that characterise their communities. Fannish experiences of gender and sexuality influence their reception of those works, and how they practice regendering as a creative process. Two: these works then reinforce that counterpublic by correcting the gender imbalance of the initial work, and re-othering the expectations of that work. I then apply these theories to specific fanfic texts, revealing the interplay between the fan, the audience, the canon, and gendered expectations of behaviour and sexuality.

description: We study two-dimensional spinful insulating phases of matter that are protected by time-reversal and crystalline symmetries. To characterize these phases we employ the concept of corner charge fractionalization: Corners can carry charges that are fractions of even multiples of the electric charge. The charges are quantized and topologically stable as long as all symmetries are preserved. We classify the different corner charge configurations for all point groups, and match them with the corresponding bulk topology. For this we employ symmetry indicators and (nested) Wilson loop invariants. We provide formulas that allow for a convenient calculation of the corner charge from Bloch wavefunctions and illustrate our results using the example of arsenic and antimony monolayers. Depending on the degree of structural buckling, these materials can exhibit two distinct obstructed atomic limits. We present density functional theory calculations for open flakes to support our findings.

description: Background: Restricted and repetitive behaviours and interests are one of the two core diagnostic features of autism. Frequent, severe restricted and repetitive behaviours and interests can cause significant difficulties for individuals with autism. These behaviours can impede participation in activities at home and in the community and affect social interaction. To date, there is little research into the effects of restricted and repetitive behaviours and interests in the school environment. This study aimed to document the effects of restricted and repetitive behaviours on participation for children with autism. Method and Results: The data used in this study has been collected through the Cooperative Research Centre for Living with Autism’s (Autism CRC) Longitudinal Study of Australian children with Autism (LASA). Caregivers of children on the spectrum aged 9–10 years (n = 131) completed the Participation and Environment Measure for Children and Youth school section and the Developmental Behavioural Checklist- Parent Version. Caregivers reported on frequency of child's participation and level of involvement in school activities and the amount and frequency of restricted and repetitive behaviours. Analysis was performed using a series of Mann-Whitney U tests at PEM-CY item‐level which revealed that children with elevated lower order restricted and repetitive behaviours participate less in getting together with peers outside of class. Conclusion: Lower order restricted and repetitive behaviours affect participation in socialising with peers. This is concerning as limited or absent peer relationships can negatively influence health and mental health. Further investigation is warranted through multi informant designs that seek the perspectives of the child and education specialists.

description: We demonstrate that the unbounded fan-out gate is very powerful. Constant-depth polynomial-size quantum circuits with bounded fan-in and unbounded fan-out over a fixed basis (denoted by QNCf^0) can approximate with polynomially small error the following gates: parity, mod[q], And, Or, majority, threshold[t], exact[q], and Counting. Classically, we need logarithmic depth even if we can use unbounded fan-in gates. If we allow arbitrary one-qubit gates instead of a fixed basis, then these circuits can also be made exact in log-star depth. Sorting, arithmetical operations, phase estimation, and the quantum Fourier transform with arbitrary moduli can also be approximated in constant depth.

title: Does human papillomavirus use a 'Hit and Run' mechanism in head and neck cancer pathogenesis?

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: human papillomavirus
subject: oropharyngeal cancer
subject: hit-and-run
subject: tumorigenesis

description: Several viruses are known to be associated with the development of certain cancers, including human papillomavirus (HPV), an established causative agent for a range of anogenital and head and neck cancers. However, much of the available data has analysed causality based on the presence of the virus, or its genetic material, in the sampled tumours. While this approach is a great tool as a starting point to identify possible links, it does not consider the early stages of tumorigenesis, nor the possibility of loss of the viral genetic material during the development of the tumour. Although some cancers were found to be addicted to the continued expression of viral oncogenes, this might not be the case for all virally initiated cancers. Here, we hypothesize that the absence of viral genes from the tumour does not necessarily exclude the viral aetiology. The hit-and-run theory suggests that the viruses have a triggering role in the cancer formation, and the viral genome can be entirely lost after the host cell accumulates numerous mutations. If this mechanism occurs, it will imply that many cancers not associated with viruses might, in fact, have arisen firstly as virus-positive cancers that have lost viral DNA. In this study, we tested this theory in an HPV-driven oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) tumour model. HPV OPCs are oncogenic addicted to the presence of the HPV oncogene, E7, where the genetic removal of this oncogene regresses tumours in vivo. Remarkably, E7 deleted tumours recurred overtime and develop new mutations not previously seen in HPV-positive OPC tumours. Importantly, a number of these new mutations are found to be already present in several HPV-negative OPC tumours. This finding suggests that previously designated HPV-negative OPCs could possibly have begun its carcinogenic journey as an HPV positive tumour and over time lose key viral oncogene(s) to accumulate new mutations for its continual maintenance.

description: Managing pathogen spillover at the wildlife-livestock interface is a key step towards improving global animal health, food security and wildlife conservation. However, predicting the effectiveness of management actions across host–pathogen systems with different life histories is an on-going challenge since data on intervention effectiveness are expensive to collect and results are system-specific. We developed a simulation model to explore how the efficacies of different management strategies vary according to host movement patterns and epidemic growth rates. The model suggested that fast-growing, fast-moving epidemics like avian influenza were best-managed with actions like biosecurity or containment, which limited and localized overall spillover risk. For fast-growing, slower-moving diseases like foot-and-mouth disease, depopulation or prophylactic vaccination were competitive management options. Many actions performed competitively when epidemics grew slowly and host movements were limited, and how management efficacy related to epidemic growth rate or host movement propensity depended on what objective was used to evaluate management performance. This framework may be a useful step in advancing how we classify and prioritise responses to novel pathogen spillover threats, and evaluate current management actions for pathogens emerging at the wildlife-livestock interface.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Dynamic and integrative approaches to understanding pathogen spillover’.

description: We address the problem of detecting race conditions in programs that use semaphores for synchronization. Netzer and Miller showed that it is NP-complete to detect race conditions in programs that use many semaphores. We show in this paper that it remains NP-complete even if only two semaphores are used in the parallel programs. For the tractable case, i.e., using only one semaphore, we give two algorithms for detecting race conditions from the trace of executing a parallel program on p processors, where n semaphore operations are executed. The first algorithm determines in O(n) time whether a race condition exists between any two given operations. The second algorithm runs in O(np log n) time and outputs a compact representation from which one can determine in O(1) time whether a race condition exists between any two given operations. The second algorithm is near-optimal in that the running time is only O(log n) times the time required simply to write down the output.

description: A search for a right-handed gauge boson $W_{\mathrm{R}}$, decaying into a boosted right-handed heavy neutrino $N_{\mathrm{R}}$, in the framework of Left-Right Symmetric Models is presented. It is based on data from proton-proton collisions with a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider during the years 2015, 2016 and 2017, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 80 fb$^{-1}$. The search is performed separately for electrons and muons in the final state. A distinguishing feature of the search is the use of large-radius jets containing electrons. Selections based on the signal topology result in smaller background compared with to expected signal. No significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed and lower limits are set in the $W_{\mathrm{R}}$ and $N_{\mathrm{R}}$ mass plane. Mass values of the $W_{\mathrm{R}}$ smaller than 3.8-5 TeV are excluded for $N_{\mathrm{R}}$ in the mass range 0.1-1.8 TeV.

Subjects: subject: Masculinity
subject: Fictional narratives
subject: Teaching genre

description: The Teaching Men project investigates masculinity, narrative and teaching by considering one central question; (How) are male teachers influenced by fictional narratives in the construction of masculinities within education? The exploration of this question is executed using three distinct yet corresponding research activities. Firstly by developing a methodological system of narrative analysis that is able to account for the influence of a fictional text alongside a reading of interview data. Secondly by focusing on a specific cohort of male teachers in order to measure the influence of a fictional text, illustrating possibilities of how masculinity can be enacted within education. Finally by assessing how the narrative nature of critical reflective practice enables the integration of fictional texts, and the literary tropes they contain, both widening and restricting perceptions of teachers and teaching. The work of the project demonstrates how fictional narratives and their encompassing ideologies can become a powerful force in the shaping of our professional identities, in this case as male teachers. The Teaching Men project has two parallel research streams. The first stream focuses on a collection of 22 fictional narratives drawn from the teacher text genre. Each text describes the world of teachers and teaching from differing perspectives, in differing forms including, literary texts; dramatic works such as plays or musicals; feature films; and television and radio series. The teacher text genre is both popular and prolific; therefore three key criteria have been established to determine inclusion within the project.

description: The problem of searching for a model-based scene interpretation is analyzed within a probabilistic framework. Object models are formulated as generative models for range data of the scene. A new statistical criterion, the truncated object probability, is introduced to infer an optimal sequence of object hypotheses to be evaluated for their match to the data. The truncated probability is partly determined by prior knowledge of the objects and partly learned from data. Some experiments on sequence quality and object segmentation and recognition from stereo data are presented. The article recovers classic concepts from object recognition (grouping, geometric hashing, alignment) from the probabilistic perspective and adds insight into the optimal ordering of object hypotheses for evaluation. Moreover, it introduces point-relation densities, a key component of the truncated probability, as statistical models of local surface shape.

description: Soft constraints extend classical constraints to represent multiple consistency levels, and thus provide a way to express preferences, fuzziness, and uncertainty. While there are many soft constraint solving formalisms, even distributed ones, by now there seems to be no concurrent programming framework where soft constraints can be handled. In this paper we show how the classical concurrent constraint (cc) programming framework can work with soft constraints, and we also propose an extension of cc languages which can use soft constraints to prune and direct the search for a solution. We believe that this new programming paradigm, called soft cc (scc), can be also very useful in many web-related scenarios. In fact, the language level allows web agents to express their interaction and negotiation protocols, and also to post their requests in terms of preferences, and the underlying soft constraint solver can find an agreement among the agents even if their requests are incompatible.

title: Motor unit discharge characteristics in response to serotonin receptor blockade in healthy humans
Creators: name: Prenzler, Michael J
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: central nervous system
subject: motoneuron activity
subject: muscle activation
subject: Motor unit discharge

description: All motor commands from the brain ultimately synapse on the motoneurones in the spinal cord to regulate the timing and amplitude of muscle contractions. The input-output relationship between command signals and motoneuron activation is relatively simple, whereby increases in the firing rate of the command signal cause a greater output response of the motoneuron. However, a complex parallel neuromodulation system is also present, where brainstem pathways release serotonin, otherwise known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the central nervous system (CNS) to regulate the gain of motoneuron activity. The purpose of this project was to determine if serotonergic effects associated with muscle activation are dependent on the mode of contraction being performed. Healthy young adults were recruited into this study, where motor unit activity was extracted from high density electromyography (HDEMG) collected from the tibialis anterior during isometric dorsiflexion. Three modes of contractions were assessed: a rapid contraction to 30% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), a slow ramped contraction to 30% MVC, and a sustained fatiguing contraction at 30% MVC that was held to failure. Each participant was tested under normal conditions (placebo) and a condition where 5-HT2A receptors were blocked in the CNS using cyproheptadine. The main finding of the project was that a blockade of 5-HT2A receptors suppressed discharge rate of motor units during a fatiguing isometric 30% MVC contraction of the tibialis anterior muscle. In contrast, there were no drug-related differences when examining the effects of 5-HT2A antagonism for shorter contraction times that were based on rapid contractions or slow ramped contractions to achieve a steady state. It is likely that the prolonged contraction evoked more release of 5-HT into the CNS compared to the shorter duration contractions, and cyproheptadine reduced the ability of 5-HT to excite motoneurons. This project provides a valuable foundation for future research that assessed pharmacological 3 intervention and motor function, as well as research that uses HDEMG to assess motor unit activity for submaximal contractions.

description: Crater ellipticity determination is a complex and time consuming task that so far has evaded successful automation. We train a state of the art computer vision algorithm to identify craters in Lunar digital elevation maps and retrieve their sizes and 2D shapes. The computational backbone of the model is MaskRCNN, an "instance segmentation" general framework that detects craters in an image while simultaneously producing a mask for each crater that traces its outer rim. Our post-processing pipeline then finds the closest fitting ellipse to these masks, allowing us to retrieve the crater ellipticities. Our model is able to correctly identify 87\% of known craters in the longitude range we hid from the network during training and validation (test set), while predicting thousands of additional craters not present in our training data. Manual validation of a subset of these "new" craters indicates that a majority of them are real, which we take as an indicator of the strength of our model in learning to identify craters, despite incomplete training data. The crater size, ellipticity, and depth distributions predicted by our model are consistent with human-generated results. The model allows us to perform a large scale search for differences in crater diameter and shape distributions between the lunar highlands and maria, and we exclude any such differences with a high statistical significance. The predicted test set catalogue and trained model are available here: https://github.com/malidib/Craters_MaskRCNN/.

description: Cultural learning is a unique human capacity essential for a wide range of adaptations. Researchers have argued that folktales have the pedagogical function of transmitting the essential information for the environment. The most important knowledge for foraging and pastoral society is folk-zoological knowledge, such as the predator-prey relationship among wild animals, or between wild and domesticated animals. Here, we analysed the descriptions of the 382 animal folktales using the natural language processing method and descriptive statistics listed in a worldwide tale-type index (Aarne-Thompson-Uther type index). Our analyses suggested that first, the predator-prey relationship frequently appeared in a co-occurrent animal pair within a folktale (e.g., cat and mouse or wolf and pig), and second, the motif of 'deception', describing the antagonistic behaviour among animals, appeared relatively higher in 'wild and domestic animals' and 'wild animals' than other types. Furthermore, the motif of 'deception' appeared more frequently in pairs, corresponding to the predator-prey relationship. These results corresponded with the hypothesis that the combination of animal characters and what happens in stories represented relationships in the real world. The present study demonstrated that the combination of quantitative methods and qualitative data broaden our understanding of the evolutionary aspects of human cultures.

description: “Huygens”, the IBM P6 system in Amsterdam and current incarnation of the Dutch National supercomputer for the academic community, was one of the DEISA systems and is now a PRACE Tier-1 system in the PRACE 2IP project. In the PRACE preparatory phase it also was a prototype system. An informal “PRACE_HOME” storage space on Huygens provides a “next stop” for PRACE Tier-0 produced data that have to be preserved for a longer time. The experience feedback presented is tied with the project of a Dutch investigator, Harm Jonker. The simulation produces an important amount of output data to be preserved, and some issues were encountered with the data preservation.

subject: Vitamin D deficiency

description: Metabolic syndrome, which is highly prevalent worldwide, is a clustering of several cardio-metabolic risk factors and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. The exact causes of metabolic syndrome are not yet fully acknowledged; however, the most significant risk factors are: being overweight/obese, genetics, aging and inactivity. Moreover, there is evidence suggesting that vitamin D deficiency might be associated with the incidence of chronic diseases such as metabolic syndrome; nevertheless, available data are conflicting regarding this association. Vitamin D deficiency is becoming a re-emerging public health problem globally which could be a consequence of modern lifestyles. In Iran, both metabolic syndrome and vitamin D deficiency are growing public health problems. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and vitamin D deficiency and their trends based on a cohort study among Iranian adults. This study was also designed to examine the association of metabolic syndrome and its components with vitamin D status.
Identifying School Climate Predictors of School Absenteeism

description: Attendance is a crucial component of the education system and may be addressed utilizing Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) models. To effectively utilize such models, clear demarcations between tiers must exist to classify students appropriately. Additionally, relevant risk and protective factors must be identified as targets for intervention and prevention efforts at each tier. Little research exists that identifies school climate factors, and other student-based contextual factors such as academic mindset and social emotional learning, that impact absenteeism. The present study aimed to identify suitable tier demarcations as well as school climate and student-based contextual factors relevant at each tier. Ensemble analysis was utilized and included chi-squared automatic interaction detection (CHAID), support vector machines, and neural network analyses. Confusion matrices identified CHAID as the best classifier. CHAID analyses were then conducted at varying levels of absenteeism severity (3+%, 5+%, 10+%, 15+%, 20+%) for 128,381 students (Mage = 13.98; SD = 2.48). Models favored specificity over sensitivity and may be more useful for interpreting protective factors than risk factors for absenteeism. Homogeneity of predictors and overall model classification accuracy, keeping in consideration the practicality of policy implementation, suggest the 5+% and 15+% severity cutoffs as suitable demarcations for tier cutoffs in MTSS models. Pathways revealed specific school climate and academic mindset items present at all levels of absenteeism severity. Social emotional learning items became relevant at higher levels of absenteeism. Findings reveal the importance of examining and integrating school climate with other student-based contextual factors. Results have implications for intervention and prevention efforts at the school level.

description: Science projects are data publishers. The scale and complexity of current and future science data changes the nature of the publication process. Publication is becoming a major project component. At a minimum, a project must preserve the ephemeral data it gathers. Derived data can be reconstructed from metadata, but metadata is ephemeral. Longer term, a project should expect some archive to preserve the data. We observe that pub-lished scientific data needs to be available forever ? this gives rise to the data pyramid of versions and to data inflation where the derived data volumes explode. As an example, this article describes the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) strategies for data publication, data access, curation, and preservation.

subject: Larix principis-rupprechtii, Forest age, Soil nutrient content, Enzyme activity

description: In this study, three different ages of Larix principis-rupprechtii forests in 5, 10 and 20 years were selected as the research objects, and the changes in soil nutrient and soil enzyme activities in different growth stages were analyzed. The results showed that the contents of organic matter and available phosphorus in the soil of different growth stages showed a significant downward trend with the increase of soil depth. For different forest ages in the same soil layer, the soil available phosphorus content declined with the increase of the forest age. The organic matter content of 40-60 cm in 20 years of forest age was the lowest in July, which was 4.17 g/kg, significantly lower than that in other soil layers. Besides, the soil available phosphorus content of 5 years of forest age reached the maximum in July, with an average of 4.44 mg/kg, which was higher than the available phosphorus content in soil in May and September, but the difference between the three months was not significant. The changes of ammonium nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen content in soil with different forest ages were consistent with the changes in the soil depth, showing a downward trend. In the new leaf stage, the ammonium nitrogen content of the L. principis-rupprechtii forest land in 5 years of age at 20-40 cm and 40-60 cm of the soil depth was 13.47 mg/kg and 9.09 mg/kg, respectively, which was 46.9% and 64.2% lower than that at 0-20 cm (25.36 mg/kg) of the soil depth. The soil nitrate nitrogen content of 20 years of forest age was 19.24 mg/kg, which was 25.8% lower than that of 10 years of forest age, showing significant difference (P < 0.05). In addition, with the increase of the age of L. principis-rupprechtii, soil catalase (CAT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and urease (Ure) decreased, and the decline of ALP was slow, while CAT and Ure decreased significantly. In summary, it is concluded that the soil fertility of forest land declined with the increase of forest age on the basis of change trend of soil nutrient and soil enzyme activity in the surveyed forest age.
