Oxidatively Stressed: Investigating how glutathione concentrations relate to negative symptoms and cognitive impairment in chronic schizophrenia
Creators: name: Yolland, Caitlin
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: There are still minimal treatment options for the negative and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. Oxidative stress is a potential contributing factor to the pathology of schizophrenia. For example, glutathione is an antioxidant which has been shown to be reduced in individuals with schizophrenia. The present thesis investigated the role of glutathione in chronic, treatment resistant schizophrenia through the measurement of cortical glutathione in the brain via magnetic resonance imaging. Additionally, this thesis provided meta-analytic evidence that antioxidant supplementation may help reduce negative symptoms and improve cognition in schizophrenia.

description: The adaptive immune system recognizes antigens via an immense array of antigen binding antibodies and T-cell receptors, the immune repertoire. The interrogation of immune repertoires is of high relevance for understanding the adaptive immune response in disease and infection (e.g., autoimmunity, cancer, HIV). Adaptive immune receptor repertoire sequencing (AIRR-seq) has driven the quantitative and molecular-level profiling of immune repertoires, thereby revealing the high-dimensional complexity of the immune receptor sequence landscape. Several methods for the computational and statistical analysis of large-scale AIRR-seq data have been developed to resolve immune repertoire complexity and to understand the dynamics of adaptive immunity. Here, we review the current research on (i) diversity, (ii) clustering and network, (iii) phylogenetic, and (iv) machine learning methods applied to dissect, quantify, and compare the architecture, evolution, and specificity of immune repertoires. We summarize outstanding questions in computational immunology and propose future directions for systems immunology toward coupling AIRR-seq with the computational discovery of immunotherapeutics, vaccines, and immunodiagnostics.

description: Today’s deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved tremendous performance in various domains such as computer vision, natural language processing, robotics, generative tasks etc. However, these high-performing DNNs require enormous amounts of compute, resulting in significant power consumption. Moreover, these often struggle in terms of visual understanding capabilities. To that effect, this thesis focuses on two aspects - enhancing efficiency of neural networks and improving their visual understanding. On the efficiency front, we leverage brain-inspired Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), which offer a promising alternative to traditional deep learning. We first perform a comparative analysis between models with and without leak, revealing that leaky-integrate-and-fire (LIF) model provides improved robustness and better generalization compared to integrate-and-fire (IF). However, leak decreases the sparsity of computation. In the second work, by introducing a Discrete Cosine Transform-based novel spike encoding scheme (DCT-SNN), we demonstrate significant performance improvements, achieving 2-14X reduction in latency compared to state-of-the-art SNNs. Next, a novel temporal pruning method is proposed, which dynamically reduces the number of timesteps during training, enabling SNN inference with just one timestep while maintaining high accuracy. The second focus of the thesis is on improving the visual understanding aspect of DNNs. The first work along this direction introduces a framework for visual syntactic understanding, drawing parallels between linguistic syntax and visual components of an image. By manipulating images to create syntactically incorrect examples and using a BERT-like autoencoder for reconstruction, the study significantly enhances the visual syntactic recognition capabilities of DNNs, evidenced by substantial improvements in classification accuracies on the CelebA and AFHQ datasets. Further, the thesis tackles unsupervised procedure learning from videos, given multiple videos of the same underlying task. Employing optimal transport (OT) and introducing novel regularization strategies, we develop the ‘OPEL’ framework, which substantially outperforms existing methods (27-46% average enhancement in F1-score) on both egocentric and third-person benchmarks. Overall, the dissertation advances the field by proposing brain-inspired models and novel learning frameworks that significantly enhance the efficiency and visual understanding capabilities of deep learning systems, making them more suitable for real-world applications.

description: Mesoamerica and the Caribbean form a region comprised by middle- and low-income countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic differently. Here, we ask whether the spread of COVID-19, measured using early epidemic growth rates (r), reproduction numbers (Rt), accumulated cases, and deaths, is influenced by how the ‘used territories’ across the regions have been differently shaped by uneven development, human movement and trade differences. Using an econometric approach, we found that trade openness increased cases and deaths, while the number of international cities connected at main airports increased r, cases and deaths. Similarly, increases in concentration of imports, a sign of uneven development, coincided with increases in early epidemic growth and deaths. These results suggest that countries whose used territory was defined by a less uneven development were less likely to show exacerbated COVID-19 patterns of transmission. Health outcomes were worst in more trade-dependent countries, even after controlling for the impact of transmission prevention and mitigation policies, highlighting how structural effects of economic integration in used territories were associated with the initial COVID-19 spread in Mesoamerica and the Caribbean.

description: This study employs the COSMO-RS method to screen 2106 ionic liquids as potential alternative solvents to the volatile n-dodecane used in the PUREX process for the separation of uranium and plutonium from spent nuclear fuel. The distribution coefficients of uranylnitrate in an ionic liquid/aqueous nitric acid biphasic system and the solubility of the ionic liquids in water were evaluated. Seventeen ionic liquids based on tetrafluoroborate (BF4) emerged as the most hydrophobic among those screened, with hexamethylguanidium tetrafluoroborate exhibiting the highest distribution coefficient. These ionic liquids demonstrated higher distribution coefficients than conventional n-dodecane, despite being more hydrophilic. The results suggest that ionic liquids can effectively serve as alternative solvents in the PUREX process, offering a promising replacement for n-dodecane.

The Influence of CaCl₂-Blended Acrylic Polymer on Steel Rebar Corrosion and Acid Attack Resistance of Mortar
Creators: name: Onuaguluchi, Obinna
name: Banthia, Nemkumar
Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2022

description: A realistic forecast of the impact of CaCl₂-blended acrylic polymer (CP) emulsions on steel reinforcement corrosion is difficult without a detailed study. This is traceable to the conflicting effects of cement additives on the chloride threshold value, pore solution chemistry, and matrix resistivity. Hence, in the study reported herein, the actual influence of 0.5–1.5 wt% CP on rebar corrosion was assessed via an accelerated corrosion test. The macrocell current, half-cell potential measurements (HCP), reinforcement cover crack propagation, and rebar deterioration were monitored. The resistance of mortar specimens to acid-induced degradation was also evaluated over time. The corrosion test results indicate that steel rebar corrosion initiation in the mortar expedited as the CP dosage in mixtures increased. Consequently, the time required for the CP-modified specimens to crack shortened. Moreover, non-uniform rebar section loss and surface crack width widening were also observed in CP-modified mortar specimens. However, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses of the plain Ref and 1.5% CP corrosion byproduct residues indicated that key phases such as akaganeite, goethite, lepidocrocite, hematite, and magnetite were quantitatively similar. Interestingly, the addition of 1.0–1.5% CP to mixtures enhanced the acid attack resistance of mortars. For now, these results indicate that CP should only be used as a chemical admixture in unreinforced cement composites.

Simulations of Graphene Oxide Dispersions as Discotic Nematic Liquid Crystals in Couette Flow Using Ericksen-Leslie (EL) Theory
Creators: name: Nikzad, Arash
name: Bhatia, Somesh

Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2022

description: The objective of this study was to simulate the flow of graphene oxide (GO) dispersions, a discotic nematic liquid crystal (DNLC), using the Ericksen-Leslie (EL) theory. GO aqueous suspension, as a lubricant, effectively reduces the friction between solid surfaces. The geometry considered in this study was two cylinders with a small gap size, which is the preliminary geometry for journal bearings. The Leslie viscosity coefficients calculated in our previous study were used to calculate the stress tensor in the EL theory. The behavior of GO dispersions in the concentration range of 15 mg/mL to 30 mg/mL, shown in our recent experiments to be in the nematic phase, was investigated to obtain the orientation and the viscosity profile. The viscosities of GO dispersions obtained from numerical simulations were compared with those from our recent experimental study, and we observed that the values are within the range of experimental uncertainty. In addition, the alignment angles of GO dispersions at different concentrations were calculated numerically using EL theory and compared with the respective theoretical values, which were within 1% error. The anchoring angles corresponding to viscosity values closest to the experimental results were between 114 and 118 degrees. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the effects of different ratios of the elasticity coefficients in EL theory. Using this procedure, the same study could be extended for other DNLCs in different geometries.
Medical tourism in Malaysia: an investigation of the destination branding factors and its influence on the behaviour of medical tourists

description: Biofilm formation in clinical settings poses significant challenges for infection management, as biofilms are associated with chronic infections and resistance to conventional antimicrobial therapies. This review discusses the multi-stage process of biofilm formation, including initial attachment, maturation, and dispersal mechanisms. It also highlights the pathogenicity of biofilms in various clinical scenarios, such as indwelling medical devices, chronic wound infections, and cystic fibrosis. The inherent resistance mechanisms of biofilm-associated microorganisms contribute to treatment difficulties, often leading to persistent infections. The review explores emerging therapeutic strategies, including disruption of biofilm formation, novel anti-biofilm agents, and combination therapies, aiming to improve treatment outcomes. Understanding biofilm dynamics is essential for developing effective diagnostic and management approaches to reduce the burden of biofilm-associated infections.

Bangla and the identity of the heritage language teacher
Creators: name: Afreen, Asma

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Research on language teacher identity in the field of heritage language (HL) teaching has received little attention, although identity is a central concern in HL education. Our research seeks to address this gap in the research on language teacher identity. Drawing on the Darvin and Norton’s (2015) conceptual framework of identity and investment, we investigate the extent to which Bangla HL teachers are invested in teaching Bangla, and how their investment provides insight into their identity as heritage language teachers. The study was conducted at the community-based Vancouver Bangla School, and the data, which focuses on our focal participant, Mili, were drawn from a year-long qualitative case study. Data sources include participant classroom observations, field notes, interview transcripts, a questionnaire, and educational resources used in the class, which were analyzed using thematic analysis. Findings indicate that Mili’s investment in teaching Bangla was deeply rooted in her ideological belief in the importance of HL maintenance for cultural continuity. However, she was also interested in the transcultural relationship between Bangla and English, and between Bangladeshi culture and Canadian culture. Her investment in teaching Bangla as a heritage language suggests that an HL teacher may serve as a cultural mentor, collaborator, innovator, and active community member. As a member of both the Canadian and Bangladeshi cultural community, she valued students’ Canadian cultural practices and helped students in negotiating their new transcultural identities as Bangladeshi-Canadians. Our study suggests that the identity of the HL teacher could be expressed as a transcultural identity that resists binaries and embraces hybridity.

description: Background Chemogenomic profiling is a powerful approach for understanding the genome-wide cellular response to small molecules. First developed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, chemogenomic screens provide direct, unbiased identification of drug target candidates as well as genes required for drug resistance. While many laboratories have performed chemogenomic fitness assays, few have been assessed for reproducibility and accuracy. Here we analyze the two largest independent yeast chemogenomic datasets comprising over 35 million gene-drug interactions and more than 6000 unique chemogenomic profiles; the first from our own academic laboratory (HIPLAB) and the second from the Novartis Institute of Biomedical Research (NIBR). Results Despite substantial differences in experimental and analytical pipelines, the combined datasets revealed robust chemogenomic response signatures, characterized by gene signatures, enrichment for biological processes and mechanisms of drug action. We previously reported that the cellular response to small molecules is limited and can be described by a network of 45 chemogenomic signatures. In the present study, we show that the majority of these signatures (66%) are also found in the companion dataset, providing further support for their biological relevance as conserved systems-level, small molecule response systems. Conclusions Our results demonstrate the robustness of chemogenomic fitness profiling in yeast, while offering guidelines for performing other high-dimensional comparisons including parallel CRISPR screens in mammalian cells.

description: It is essential to ensure the users comprehend the security information so that they can apply the advice it contains in practice. However, the security-centric descriptions generated by recent techniques do not always address users' concerns and they are generally too technical to be understood by ordinary users. The thesis presents how we study users’ understanding of cybersecurity texts and how we design the tool to automatically generate understandable descriptions to help the users comprehend the cybersecurity information and raise their security awareness. Our developed tool is designed with educational purposes in mind to help users increase their security knowledge.

description: In recent years, more and more countries see irrigation using reclaimed water as an opportunity to secure and enhance agricultural production. Despite the benefits of water reuse, the scientific community raised several concerns and challenges for human health and the environment. This includes chemical risks. Effluents from urban wastewater treatment plants usually contain a wide range of organic chemicals. Such chemicals remaining in the water after the treatment process may cause hazards for human health, contaminate surrounding soil and water resources, and even compromise drinking water sources. Once crops on irrigated sites are exposed to chemicals, the potential transport to and accumulation in the edible parts of fruits and vegetables need to be controlled to rule out their introduction into the food chain. Finally, problems concerning the release of wastewater-borne antibiotics into the environment are starting to gain attention. For these reasons, agricultural irrigation should face more stringent quality requirements in order to minimize chemical risks. Combinations of measures reducing chemicals at the source, technical and natural water treatment processes especially to remove chemicals with persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT), or persistent, mobile and toxic (PMT) properties, good agricultural practices, and supplementary preventive measures (e.g. knowledge transfer to the stakeholders involved) will be necessary to bring about and ensure safe irrigation in the future. While internationally many regulations and guidelines for water reuse have successfully been implemented, questions remain whether the current knowledge regarding chemical risks is sufficiently considered in the regulatory context. The introduction of a new regulation for water reuse, as attempted in the European Union, poses a good opportunity to better take chemicals risks into account. Quelle: https://link.springer.com

description: The mate-copying (MC) refers to an individual's assessment of mates value by observing information about the potential mate (Target) conveyed by other same-gender individuals (Model). As one of the strategies for choosing mates, MC provides individuals with an alternative way to learn social information about others, and can help individuals save the effort required to evaluate potential mates. As an alternative process of learning about others, MC might also be similar to universal social learning. That is, the effect of MC would influenced by the prediction error of the Model's attitude toward the target, as well as the trust in Model. In our previous studies, we have found a mediating effect of the trust in Model behavior (i.e., positive / negative attitudes of the Model toward Target) in the negative relationship between the prediction error and MC, and this effect is independent of the amount of information about the Model (e.g., how much the Model knows about the Target). To explore whether the previously effects implies trust in behavior or trust in Models affect MC, here we plan to further verify how the individual trust (manipulated by high / low similarity with the participants) in Models affects the participants’ MC decision.

description: Background Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by elevated serum IgG4 levels and tumefactive lesions that can involve nearly every organ system. Involvement of the prostate is rare but has been reported in limited cases. Case presentation A 28-year-old man of Asian descent with a history of sinusitis and priapism presented to hospital with rigors and voiding symptoms. He was diagnosed with IgG4-RD one month prior to presentation, following pathological analysis of a submandibular mass that demonstrated chronic sclerosing sialadenitis. On presentation, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, and prostate serum antigen levels were all within normal limits. Examination was notable for a large, firm prostate, and a foley catheter was inserted. Contrast CT of the abdomen was unremarkable. Further workup revealed elevated serum IgG4 levels (9.22 g/L) and he was subsequently started on prednisone 35 mg daily. Imaging to screen for systemic IgG4-RD involvement demonstrated paravertebral soft tissue involvement and he was given rituximab 1000 mg IV × 2 doses. MRI revealed diffuse prostatitis. Five days after starting prednisone and one day after his first dose of rituximab, he successfully passed trial of void and was discharged home. Conclusions IgG4-related prostatitis is a rare and underrecognized manifestation of IgG4-RD. Our case highlights the need to consider IgG4-related prostatitis as an etiology of urinary obstruction in young individuals. Resolution of symptoms following treatment with steroids may be diagnostic of IgG4-related prostatitis, and may potentially avoid the need for invasive diagnostic procedures such as prostate biopsy.

A new approach for the communication and production of three-dimensional computer assisted character animation
Creators: name: Murdoch, Steven
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: During the production stage of an animated film, character animators bridge the contrasting domains of art and technology to give characters life on-screen. However, current methods of sharing production knowledge with aspiring animators are limited and lack in-depth guidance. This thesis advocates for Agent-Oriented Goal Modelling as a framework to identify, reconcile and communicate character animation's multi-domain production knowledge using explicit language and modelling concepts. This research developed a practical approach to the communication and production of three-dimensional computer assisted character animation. The approach has been applied and revised within tertiary level student character animation projects.
