description: Abstract Background Approximately 50% of rare diseases have symptom onset during childhood. A high level of nursing care and an often uncertain prognosis put caregivers of the affected children at high risk for psychological distress. At the same time, their caregivers have limited access to appropriate psychological care. The aim of this study was to evaluate a web-based psychological support program for caregivers of children with chronic rare diseases (WEP-CARE). Methods German-speaking parents (recruited between May 2016 and March 2018) caring for children aged 0–25 years with a rare disease showing clinically relevant anxiety symptoms, were assigned to either the WEP-CARE ( n  = 38) or treatment as usual ( n  = 36) condition within a randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome measure was parental anxiety, assessed with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire (GAD-7). Secondary outcomes were fear of disease progression, depression, coping, quality of life and user satisfaction. The group differences were tested through repeated-measures analyses of variance. The WEP-CARE group was additionally followed up three months after the treatment. Results A significant time-group interaction was found for anxiety ( F (1,35) = 6.13, p  = .016), fear of disease progression ( F (1,331) = 18.23, p  < .001), depression ( F (1,74) = 10.79, p  = .002) and coping ( F (1,233) = 7.02, p  = .010), suggesting superiority of the WEP-CARE group. Sustainability of the treatment gains regarding anxiety, fear of disease progression and coping was confirmed at the 6-month follow-up assessment ( p  < .01). A significant interaction effect could not be found for quality of life ( F (1,2) = 0.016; p  = .899). Both participating parents and therapists were satisfied with WEP-CARE. Conclusions Our results underline the efficacy and feasibility of WEP-CARE for parents of children with various rare diseases.
Collapse of the magnetic moment under pressure of AFe$_2$ (A = Y, Zr, Lu and Hf) in the cubic Laves phase

description: The electronic structures of four Laves phase iron compounds (e.g. YFe$_2$, ZrFe$_2$, LuFe$_2$ and HfFe$_2$) have been calculated by the state-of-the-art full potential electronic structure code. The magnetic moments collapse under hydrostatic pressure. This feature is found to be universal in these materials. Its electronic origin is provided by the sharp peaks in the density of states near the Fermi level. It is shown that a first order quantum phase transition can be expected under pressure in Y(Zr, or Lu)Fe$_2$, while a second order one in HfFe$_2$. The bonding characteristics are discussed to elucidate the equilibrium lattice constant variation. The large spontaneous volume magnetostriction gives one of the most important character of these compounds. Invar anomalies in these compounds can be partly explained by the current work when the fast continuous magnetic moment decrease at the decrease of the lattice constant was properly considered. This work may remind the experimentalists of these "old" compounds and exploration of the quantum properties under high pressures are greatly encouraged.

description: Background: Mindfulness based stress reduction is an evidence-based intervention to reduce fatigue and other psychological distress symptoms in patients. This study explores the extent that National Cancer Institute (NCI) designated comprehensive cancer centers include MBSR programs on their website to evaluate accessibility of MBSR programs for the patients with cancer, survivors, and their families.
Methods: I identified 51 NCI Comprehensive Cancer Centers. To examine the extent NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers promote MBSR programs for patient on their website, I utilized search engine and went through different supportive care tabs. I also identified MBSR program or other mindfulness intervention by the hospital system connected to the Cancer Center.
Results: Only three out of 51 (5.9%) comprehensive cancer centers promoted and included MBSR programs exclusively oncology patients, survivors, and their families. Nine out of 51 (17.7%) centers offer MBSR program through their hospital system. As a result, total of 12/52 (23.5%) of cancer centers offered MBSR program directly through cancer center of through the affiliated centers.
Discussion: It is clear that the MBSR can improve cancer related fatigue and various psychological symptoms like depression and anxiety for the patients struggling with cancer, and it is important for the cancer centers to promote MBSR, especially during COVID-19 where you cannot meet in-person to manage these symptoms. The alternative approach to online MBSR during this pandemic can be offering mindfulness-based mobile apps.
Climate change, social vulnerability, and child nutrition in South Asia
Creators: name: McMahon, Kathryn
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: Despite recent advancements in global economic and food security, climate change threatens to undermine child nutritional health, particularly for marginalized populations in tropical low- and middle-income countries, where temperatures are already high and community resources for responding to climate shocks are often few. Climate change in these places can damage crop yields, increase heat stress and infectious disease, and destabilize the economy, all of which puts children’s nutritional health at risk. This is a major concern because adequate nutrition is central to the physical and cognitive development of children under five years old, and undernutrition in early life can cause damage that lasts well into adulthood. South Asia is at particular risk for climate-driven undernutrition due to a combination of extreme weather, existing nutritional deficits, and a lack of sanitation access. Previous studies have established that precipitation extremes in particular threaten to increase rates of undernutrition in this region, but the existing literature lacks adequate consideration of temperature anomalies, mediating social factors, and developmentally relevant timing of exposure to climate shocks. We combine high-resolution temperature and precipitation data with household demographics and child anthropometry, using an approach that incorporates three key developmental periods and a rigorous fixed effects design. We find that temperature and precipitation extremes in the first year of life significantly increase the likelihood of stunting (height-for-age z < -2) for the majority of South Asian children. The detrimental effects of extreme precipitation are especially concentrated in under-resourced households, such as those lacking access to proper sanitation and education for women, while anomalous heat is particularly harmful for children in Pakistan. These results indicate that nutritional status in South Asia is highly responsive to climate exposures, and ongoing nutritional improvements in South Asia are likely to be handicapped as climate change leads to more frequent and intense climate shocks.

description: It has recently been suggested that a deficit in time processing may be considered a cognitive marker of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, the neural correlates of this cognitive deficit in PTSD remain unknown. Voxel-based morphometry and supra-second perceptual time processing data from 8 participants with PTSD and 19 healthy controls have been examined. In line with previous investigations, PTSD patients overestimated the duration of the displayed stimuli. Moreover, their time estimation was more variable than that of controls. Critically, compared to controls, a higher grey matter volume was reported in most of neural regions of PTSD canonically associated with supra-second perceptual timing. These data provide preliminary evidence that the abnormal neuroplasticity of this neural network may be responsible for the altered experience of time in PTSD. We provide preliminary evidence that abnormal grey matter volume of neural regions canonically associated with supra-second perceptual timing may be responsible for the altered experience of time in PTSD. We provide preliminary evidence that abnormal grey matter volume of neural regions canonically associated with supra-second perceptual timing may be responsible for the altered experience of time in PTSD.

description: We consider the effects of long-range temporal correlations in many-particle systems, focusing particularly on fluctuations about the typical behaviour. For a specific class of memory dependence we discuss the modification of the large deviation principle describing the probability of rare currents and show how superdiffusive behaviour can emerge. We illustrate the general framework with detailed calculations for a memory-dependent version of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process as well as indicating connections to other recent work.

description: Dissociative disorders (DDs) are characterized by interruptions of identity, thought, memory, emotion, perception, and consciousness. Patients with DDs are at high risk for engaging in dangerous behaviours, such as self-harm and suicidal acts; yet, only between 28% and 48% of individuals with DDs receive mental health treatment. Patients that do pursue treatment are often misdiagnosed, repeatedly hospitalized, and experience disbelief from providers about their trauma history and dissociative symptoms. Lack of dissociation-specific treatment can result in poor quality of life, severe symptoms requiring utilization of hospitalization and intensive outpatient treatment, and high rates of disability. Given the extensive and debilitating symptoms experienced by individuals with DDs and the infrequent utilization of treatment, the current study explored barriers to accessing and continuing mental health treatment for individuals with dissociative symptoms and DDs. A total of 276 participants with self-reported dissociative symptoms were recruited via online social media platforms. Participants completed a survey which featured 35 possible barriers to accessing treatment and 45 possible reasons for discontinuing treatment, along with open text boxes for adding barriers/reasons that were not listed. Results showed 97% of participants experienced one or more barriers to accessing treatment (M = 9 barriers) and 92% stopped treatment with a provider due to at least one of the reasons captured in the survey (e.g. limited insurance coverage, poor therapeutic alliance, disbelief from providers, etc.; M = 7 barriers). The most frequently endorsed barriers were structural barriers, such as those related to finances, insurance, and lack of provider availability. It is imperative more service providers are trained to treat dissociation and that insurers and health care systems recognize the need for specialized, dissociation-focused treatment. Most dissociative individuals reported barriers to accessing and continuing mental health treatment.It is imperative more clinicians are trained to treat dissociation and that insurers and health care systems recognize the need for specialized, dissociation treatment.

description: In this article, we present planning and scheduling techniques that we developed for optimizing the operations of space telescopes. The latter are satellites whose mission is to observe celestial objects such as planets, exoplanets, stars, or galaxies. After a survey of some existing mission planning tools, we present three case studies that we tackled using a constraint-based optimization and operations research approach, with for each case study the lessons that we learned. Based on these, we propose future work directions related to the development of generic mission planning tools, to the management of uncertain events, and to the definition of a global mission planning concept for several telescopes.

description: We reformulate perturbation theory for neutrino oscillations in matter with an expansion parameter related to the ratio of the solar to the atmospheric $Δm^2$ scales. Unlike previous works, we use a renormalized basis in which certain first-order effects are taken into account in the zeroth-order Hamiltonian. We show that the new framework has an exceptional feature that leads to the neutrino oscillation probability in matter with the same structure as in vacuum to first order in the expansion parameter. It facilitates immediate physical interpretation of the formulas, and makes the expressions for the neutrino oscillation probabilities extremely simple and compact. We find, for example, that the $ν_e$ disappearance probability at this order is of a simple two-flavor form with an appropriately identified mixing angle and $Δm^2$. More generally, all the oscillation probabilities can be written in the universal form with the channel-discrimination coefficient of $0,~\pm1$ or simple functions of $θ_{23}$. Despite their simple forms they include all order effects of $θ_{13}$ and all order effects of the matter potential, to first order in our expansion parameter.

This advance now makes possible the practical use of computer vision in civil drones or aircraft, replacing human pilots. The question that naturally arises is then to provide a way to certify those types of systems at a given level of safety. The aim of the article is, firstly, to understand the gap between todays computer vision systems and the current certification standards; secondly, to identify the key activities that must be fulfilled in order to make computer-vision systems certifiable and, thirdly, to explore some recent works related to these key activities.

description: With an increasing diversification in transportation options, it is important to understand who uses certain transportation modes, and why they select that mode. By being able to determine what method of transportation certain groups of people choose, and for what reason, cities can begin to understand what factors would need to change in order to incentivize different behaviors and alter existing transportation habits. Such changes in travel behavior are of increasing interest with the environmental issues posed by transportation and automobile use, awareness of a lack of equity in transportation availability, and the concern over land use in urban areas.
For this study, I focus on non-motorized transportation such as walking, biking and I consider several demographic and socio-economic characteristics to understand how a person chooses non-motorized modes in their daily travel. Characteristics that may influence whether a user selects a motorized or a non-motorized form of transportation mode choice include the educational attainment, gender, age, employment status, student status, and disability status of the traveler, the distance, duration, purpose, and day of the trip, and the number of people, the number of kids, the income, and whether there is a vehicle in the household. This study uses data collected from a household travel survey of the Twin Cities region in Minnesota to identify which specific characteristics may be useful in predicting the motorization of an individual’s mode choice.

description: Maria Montessori was a visionary who created classrooms known as the prepared environment which allows for exploration, concrete learning experiences, and freedom of choice within limits. This research project was designed to create an extension of the prepared environment outdoors to support meaningful learning opportunities. Children can learn directly from the world around them while connecting with nature. The purpose of this thesis was to inspire, encourage, build teachers' confidence, and highlight the importance and benefits of outdoor learning in Montessori settings. In addition, the creation of an outdoor prepared environment is designed to address the perceived barriers to outdoor learning. The culminating project is a website (www.montessorioutside.com) intended to support teachers in creating an outdoor prepared environment and to get children learning outdoors. The words of Maria Montessori are inspiring: “There is no description, no image in any book that is capable of replacing the sight of real trees, and all the life to be found around them, in a real forest. Something emanates from those trees which speaks to the soul, something no book, no museum is capable of giving” (Montessori, 1994, pp. 19-20).
How Do Gender Biases in the Automotive Industry Affect the Experiences of Females Employed at Dealerships?

description: The automotive industry, as studies suggest, has denied females decades of opportunities, advancement, and respect. Studies show males tend to perceive female customers and employees as less knowledgeable. However, the experiences of females employed in automobile dealerships are not adequately explored in existing literature. Research should consider dealerships in the industry’s gender debate because dealerships are the preferred car-buying method. Therefore, this study investigates the experiences of females employed in automobile dealerships using qualitative and quantitative methods in a survey of over 100 participants. My survey reveals that participants feel strongly regarding whether or not gender biases exist in automobile dealerships; most participants either strongly agreed or strongly disagreed as to the existence of gender biases in their dealerships. Based on the skewed results, I segmented participants into three distinct groups and analyzed data among the three. Researchers should pursue further studies examining female perception of gender biases in dealerships.

description: The numerical study of anyonic systems is known to be highly challenging due to their non-bosonic, non-fermionic particle exchange statistics, and with the exception of certain models for which analytical solutions exist, very little is known about their collective behaviour as a result. Meanwhile, the density matrix renormalisation group (DMRG) algorithm is an exceptionally powerful numerical technique for calculating the ground state of a low-dimensional lattice Hamiltonian, and has been applied to the study of bosonic, fermionic, and group-symmetric systems. The recent development of a tensor network formulation for anyonic systems opened up the possibility of studying these systems using algorithms such as DMRG, though this has proved challenging both in terms of programming complexity and computational cost. This paper presents the implementation of DMRG for finite anyonic systems, including a detailed scheme for the implementation of anyonic tensors with optimal scaling of computational cost. The anyonic DMRG algorithm is demonstrated by calculating the ground state energy of the Golden Chain, which has become the benchmark system for the numerical study of anyons, and is shown to produce results comparable to those of the anyonic TEBD algorithm and superior to the variationally optimised anyonic MERA, at far lesser computational cost.

description: The purpose of this article is to take stock of the progress made in remote sensing thanks to the recent development of deep learning techniques. This assessment is made by means of a systematic presentation of the various activities carried out at ONERA in remote sensing imagery using deep learning methods. It covers a large part of the observation problems: filtering, object detection, land-use classification, change detection, and biomass estimation. In light of these activities, we highlight the practical challenges of deep learning, mainly physical feature definition and training database construction. Some directions for future research are also given, such as the development and use of dedicated remote sensing platforms, hybrid supervised/ unsupervised strategies, and the further exploitation of multimodal/multitemporal data.

description: The International Classification of Diseases eleventh edition (ICD-11) has recently included prolonged grief disorder (PGD), a diagnosis characterized by severe, persistent, and disabling grief. The text revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 (DSM-5-TR) is scheduled to include a similar but distinct diagnosis, also termed PGD. Concerns have been raised that these new diagnoses are qualitatively different from both prior proposed diagnoses for pathological grief and each other, which may affect the generalizability of findings obtained with different criteria sets. We conducted a content overlap analysis of PGDICD-11, PGDDSM-5-TR, and previous proposals for pathological grief diagnoses (i.e. PGD 2009; complicated grief (CG), PGD ICD-11 beta draft, persistent complex bereavement disorder (PCBD) per DSM-5). Using the Jaccard’s Index, we established the degree of content overlap between core and accessory symptoms of PGDICD-11, PGDDSM-5-TR, and prior proposals for pathological grief diagnoses. Main findings are that PGDICD-11 and PGDDSM-5-TR showed moderate content overlap with each other and with most prior proposed diagnoses for pathological grief. PGDICD-11 and PGDDSM-5-TR showed the strongest content overlap with their direct predecessors, PGDICD-11 beta draft and PCBD, respectively. Limited content overlap between PGDICD-11 and PGDDSM-5-TR and preceding criteria sets may threaten generalizability of past research on phenomenological characteristics of pathological grief to current criteria sets. Similarly, findings obtained with instruments to assess PGDICD-11 may not generalize to PGDDSM-5-TR and vice versa. Researchers should aim to determine under which circumstances criteria sets for PGD yield similar or distinct characteristics. Convergence of criteria sets for PGD remains an important goal for the future. Content overlap analyses showed moderate overlap between symptoms of PGD per DSM-5-TR and ICD-11 and between these diagnoses and prior criteria sets.We should establish when new criteria sets for PGD behave similarly or differently.Convergence of PGD criteria sets is needed.

description: For a measure preserving automorphism $T$ of a probability space, we provide conditions on the tail function of $g\colonΩ\to\mathbb R$ and $g-g\circ T$ which guarantee limit theorems among the weak invariance principle, Marcinkievicz-Zygmund strong law of large numbers and the law of iterated logarithm to hold for $f:=m+g-g\circ T$, where $(m\circ T^i)\_{i\geqslant 0}$ is a martingale differences sequence.

description: One of the most puzzling facts about cuprate high-temperature superconductors in the lightly doped regime is the coexistence of uniform superconductivity and/or antiferromagnetism with many low-energy charge-ordered states in a unidirectional charge density wave or a bidirectional checkerboard structure. Recent experiments have discovered that these charge density waves exhibit different symmetries in their intra-unit-cell form factors for different cuprate families. Using a renormalized mean-field theory for a well-known, strongly correlated model of cuprates, we obtain a number of charge-ordered states with nearly degenerate energies without invoking special features of the Fermi surface. All of these self-consistent solutions have a pair density wave intertwined with a charge density wave and sometimes a spin density wave. Most of these states vanish in the underdoped regime, except for one with a large d-form factor that vanishes at approximately 19% doping of the holes, as reported by experiments. Furthermore, these states could be modified to have a global superconducting order, with a nodal-like density of states at low energy.

Exploratory Analysis of the Variability of Viral and Bacterial Indicators of Fecal Contamination in Private Wells

description: Private wells are not currently subject to the same maintenance laws and regulations as municipal water,
and as such, pose a large public health threat to those relying on well water as their primary drinking
source. Viral indicators are necessary for the detection of all waterborne pathogens and the holistic
monitoring of private wells. This study uses the Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) approach of modern
spatiotemporal geostatistics to utilize private well sampling data on male-specific coliphage and somatic
coliphage (two viral fecal indicators), and total coliforms (a bacterial fecal indicator) in order to model
these fecal indicators across space/time in southern North Carolina, and ultimately compare their
predictive power. This exploratory analysis reveals a considerable difference between the detection rate
and variability in the viral fecal indicators compared to that of the bacterial fecal indicator. The detection
rate of viral indicators is 58.5% greater than that of the bacterial indicator, and the distance over which
viral indicators are autocorrelated is about 10 times greater than that of bacterial indicators. These
findings show that viral indicators are easier to detect and may persist longer in their environment than
their bacterial counterparts, and as a result, each viral indicator measurement is informative about the
contamination of neighboring private wells over distances 10 times greater than their bacterial
counterparts. However, this analysis also reveals that space/time patterns in this dataset are subject to the
confounding effects of natural processes such as precipitation or proximity to flood zones, and future
iterations of this work should include regression analyses to control for these effects.

Strip cropping
Biologico,
Valutazione di sostenibilità

description: Problema La coltivazione a strisce (o strip cropping) è poco utilizzata in Italia. Le conoscenze pratiche e scientifiche devono essere sviluppate al fine di applicarla in modo appropriato, particolarmente in aree dove le aziende agricole sono molto diverse per dimensioni, topografia dei campi agricoli e disponibilità di attrezzature. L'applicazione dello strip cropping può essere di particolare rilevanza per gli agricoltori interessati a coltivare specie minori e cultivar locali che costituiscono produzioni tipiche e sono espressione della cultura alimentare locale. Soluzione Identificare le migliori combinazioni di specie vegetali, in modo che le pratiche agricole necessarie per una coltura non interferiscano negativamente con quelle dell'altra. Definire le larghezze ottimali delle strisce e dei campi, tenendo conto della larghezza delle macchine (specialmente per la lavorazione e la raccolta) al fine di ridurre le capezzagne improduttive e il tempo di lavoro.
