description: Possible changes in access to natural resources can affect a regional economy. An understanding of the flow of business expenditure in the regional economy, including both purchases and sales transactions performed by businesses, is one of the key factors in determining the impacts of these changes. This paper aims to fill gaps in our understanding of the flow of financial transactions by analysing the expenditure and sales pattern of industries involved in irrigated agriculture, providing inputs and services to agriculture, and those engaged in tourism and recreational activities in the Barwon- Darling region. This study is based on a survey, conducted as a part of a larger project, addressing issues important for planning activities of the Barwon-darling River Management Committee. The results of the study will assist natural resource planners and managers to gain insights into the direction of flow-on impacts of different planning options.

description: The research aimed to analyze Klotho protein level in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute myocardial infarction with various phenotypes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Patients included in the study were divided into groups: the main group – patients with acute myocardial infarction and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (n = 60) and the comparison group – patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (n = 54). Somatically healthy individuals (n = 30) were examined as a control group. According to the results of the study, it was revealed that in patients with acute myocardial infarction and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Klotho protein level was statistically lower compared to the group of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and in somatically healthy individuals. It was also found that in patients with emphysematous, chronic bronchitis and mixed phenotypes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Klotho protein level has statistically significant differences. The lowest level of studied protein was in patients with chronic bronchitis phenotype. Klotho protein level in the group of patients with acute myocardial infarction with emphysematous, chronic bronchitis and mixed phenotypes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was statistically lower than in the group of patients with the chronic obstructive pulmo-nary disease with corresponding phenotypes. It was also revealed the presence of correlations of Klotho protein level and phenotypes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in all the examined patients, with a greater strength of correla-tions in patients with comorbid pathology.
Key words: Klotho protein, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute myocardial infarction, phenotype.

description: In this article, the dynamics of an unbalanced two-ion crystal comprising the 'target' and the 'sensor' ions confined in a Penning trap has been studied. First, the low amplitude regime is addressed. In this regime, the overall potential including the Coulomb repulsion between the ions can be considered harmonic and the axial, magnetron and reduced-cyclotron modes split up into the so-called 'stretch' and 'common' modes, that are generalizations of the well-known 'breathing' and 'center-of-mass' motions of a balanced crystal made of two ions. By measuring the frequency modes of the crystal and the sensor ion eigenfrequencies using optical detection, it will be possible to determine the target ion's free-cyclotron frequency. The measurement scheme is described and the non-harmonicity of the Coulomb interaction is discussed since this might cause large systematic effects.

We incorporate our results on induced gluon bremsstrahlung together with the effects of nuclear shadowing and multiple scattering in a two component soft+hard description of heavy ion reactions at RHIC energies. We demonstrate that good agreement between data and theory can be achieved in the measured moderate p_T <= 5 GeV window at root(s)=130 AGeV and we extend our predictions for the high p_T part of the hadronic spectra. We focus on the perspectives of using jet tomographic methods for probing not only the density and geometry of the quark-gluon plasma but also its parton composition at various center of mass energies.

description: The increasing rate of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pathogenic bacteria is a global threat to human and veterinary medicine. Beyond antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) might be an alternative to inhibit the growth of bacteria, including AMR pathogens, on different surfaces. Biofilm formation, which starts out as bacterial adhesion, poses additional challenges for antibiotics targeting bacterial cells. The objective of this study was to establish a real-time method for the monitoring of the inhibition of (a) bacterial adhesion to a defined substrate and (b) biofilm formation by AMPs using an innovative thermal sensor. We provide evidence that the thermal sensor enables continuous monitoring of the effect of two potent AMPs, protamine and OH-CATH-30, on surface colonization of bovine mastitis-associated Escherichia (E.) coli and Staphylococcus (S.) aureus. The bacteria were grown under static conditions on the surface of the sensor membrane, on which temperature oscillations generated by a heater structure were detected by an amorphous germanium thermistor. Bacterial adhesion, which was confirmed by white light interferometry, caused a detectable amplitude change and phase shift. To our knowledge, the thermal measurement system has never been used to assess the effect of AMPs on bacterial adhesion in real time before. The system could be used to screen and evaluate bacterial adhesion inhibition of both known and novel AMPs.

description: Circ-PDCD11 (hsa_circ_0019853, 461 bp) has been characterized as an oncogenic circRNA in breast cancer, while its function in other cancers is unclear. In this study, we explored the role of circ-PDCD11 in lung cancer. Plasma samples were obtained from patients with lung large-cell carcinoma (LLCC, n = 40), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC, n = 40), lung adenocarcinoma (LA, n = 40) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC, n = 40) as well as healthy controls (Control, n = 40). Paired tumor and nontumor tissue samples were obtained from all patients. Expression of circ-PDCD11 in these samples was determined by RT-qPCR. The role of plasma circ-PDCD11 in the diagnosis of LLCC was analyzed with ROC curve. A five-year follow-up was performed to analyze the role of plasma circ-PDCD11 in the prognosis of LLCC. Plasma circ-PDCD11 was specifically upregulated in LLCC but not in other lung cancer types, compared to the controls. Increased circ-PDCD11 expression in tumor tissues compared to nontumor tissues was only observed in LLCC patients but not in other lung cancer types. Increased plasma circ-PDCD11 levels effectively separated LLCC patients from patients with other types of cancers. High plasma circ-PDCD11 levels were closely correlated with poor survival of LLCC patients. Plasma circ-PDCD11 levels were closely correlated with tumor metastasis, but not tumor size of LLCC. CircRNA circ-PDCD11 is highly expressed specifically in LLCC and predicts poor survival.

description: The presence of short-lived ($\sim$\,Myr) radioactive isotopes in meteoritic inclusions at the time of their formation represents a unique opportunity to study the circumstances that led to the formation of the Solar System. To interpret these observations we need to calculate the evolution of radioactive-to-stable isotopic ratios in the Galaxy. We present an extension of the open-source galactic chemical evolution codes NuPyCEE and JINAPyCEE that enables to track the decay of radioactive isotopes in the interstellar medium. We show how the evolution of isotopic ratio depends on the star formation history and efficiency, star-to-gas mass ratio, and galactic outflows. Given the uncertainties in the observations used to calibrate our model, our predictions for isotopic ratios at the time of formation of the Sun are uncertain by a factor of 3.6. At that time, to recover the actual radioactive-to-stable isotopic ratios predicted by our model, one can multiply the steady-state solution (see Equation~1) by $2.3^{+3.4}_{-0.7}$. However, in the cases where the radioactive isotope has a half-life longer than $\sim$\,200\,Myr, or the target radioactive or stable isotopes have mass- and/or metallicity-depended production rates, or they originate from different sources with different delay-time distributions, or the reference isotope is radioactive, our codes should be used for more accurate solutions. Our preliminary calculations confirm the dichotomy between radioactive nuclei in the early Solar System with $r$- and $s$-process origin, and that $^{55}$Mn and $^{60}$Fe can be explained by galactic chemical evolution, while $^{26}$Al cannot.

description: The discovery of radio pulsars over a half century ago was a seminal moment in astronomy. It demonstrated the existence of neutron stars, gave a powerful observational tool to study them, and has allowed us to probe strong gravity, dense matter, and the interstellar medium. More recently, pulsar surveys have led to the serendipitous discovery of fast radio bursts (FRBs). While FRBs appear similar to the individual pulses from pulsars, their large dispersive delays suggest that they originate from far outside the Milky Way and hence are many orders-of-magnitude more luminous. While most FRBs appear to be one-off, perhaps cataclysmic events, two sources are now known to repeat and thus clearly have a longer-lived central engine. Beyond understanding how they are created, there is also the prospect of using FRBs -- as with pulsars -- to probe the extremes of the Universe as well as the otherwise invisible intervening medium. Such studies will be aided by the high implied all-sky event rate: there is a detectable FRB roughly once every minute occurring somewhere on the sky. The fact that less than a hundred FRB sources have been discovered in the last decade is largely due to the small fields-of-view of current radio telescopes. A new generation of wide-field instruments is now coming online, however, and these will be capable of detecting multiple FRBs per day. We are thus on the brink of further breakthroughs in the short-duration radio transient phase space, which will be critical for differentiating between the many proposed theories for the origin of FRBs. In this review, we give an observational and theoretical introduction at a level that is accessible to astronomers entering the field.

description: Combining amoxicillin with the immunostimulatory toll-like receptor 4 agonist monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) represents an innovative approach for enhancing antibacterial treatment success. Exploiting pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data from an infection model of Streptococcus pneumoniae infected mice, we aimed to evaluate the preclinical exposure-response relationship of amoxicillin with MPLA coadministration and establish a link to survival. Antibiotic serum concentrations, bacterial numbers in lung and spleen and survival data of mice being untreated or treated with amoxicillin (four dose levels), MPLA, or their combination were analyzed by nonlinear mixed-effects modelling and time-to-event analysis using NONMEM® to characterize these treatment regimens. On top of a pharmacokinetic interaction, regarding the pharmacodynamic effects the combined treatment was superior to both monotherapies: The amoxicillin efficacy at highest dose was increased by a bacterial reduction of 1.74 log10 CFU/lung after 36 h and survival was increased 1.35-fold to 90.3% after 14 days both compared to amoxicillin alone. The developed pharmacometric pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic disease-treatment-survival models provided quantitative insights into a novel treatment option against pneumonia revealing a pharmacokinetic interaction and enhanced activity of amoxicillin and the immune system stimulator MPLA in combination. Further development of this drug combination flanked with pharmacometrics towards the clinical setting seems promising.
Effect of the Hydration Shell on the Carbonyl Vibration in the Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu Peptide

description: The vibrational spectrum of the Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu peptide in solution, computed from first-principles simulations, shows a prominent band in the amide I region that is assigned to stretching of carbonyl groups. Close inspection reveals combined but slightly different contributions by the three carbonyl groups of the peptide. The shift in their exact vibrational signature is in agreement with the different probabilities of these groups to form hydrogen bonds with the solvent. The central carbonyl group has a hydrogen bond probability intermediate to the other two groups due to interchanges between different hydrogen-bonded states. Analysis of the interaction energies of individual water molecules with that group shows that shifts in its frequency are directly related to the interactions with the water molecules in the first hydration shell. The interaction strength is well correlated with the hydrogen bond distance and hydrogen bond angle, though there is no perfect match, allowing geometrical criteria for hydrogen bonds to be used as long as the sampling is sufficient to consider averages. The hydrogen bond state of a carbonyl group can therefore serve as an indicator of the solvent’s effect on the vibrational frequency.

description: The paper investigates the significance of risk, external and internal transaction costs in the agriculture of the Tatarstan Republic. The analysis is conducted for two categories of organ-isational forms, independent farms and members of agroholdings. Although average prices do not differ among organisational forms, the results indicate that external transaction costs are more pronounced in independent farms, whereas agroholding membership entails higher in-ternal transaction costs, thereby making agroholdings more vulnerable to inefficiency than independent farms. In addition, the estimation suggests that this higher inefficiency results from the more enhanced risk management in agroholding members. Since this strategy leads to a more intensive factor use, members of business groups are able to allocate inputs so as to increase production at the same time.

description: Die Bestimmung optimaler Versuchspläne für Cross-over Experimente bezieht sich in bisherigen Arbeiten vielfach auf die Analyse von Daten, die mittels einfacher linearer Modelle analysiert werden können. Im Fokus der Arbeit stehen Ereigniszeiten als Zielgröße. Diesen Ereigniszeiten wird zum einen unterstellt, dass sie einer Typ-I Zensierung unterliegen und zum anderen durch das Cox-Modell angepasst werden können. Die berücksichtigte Response-Funktion wird durch einen funktionalen Zusammenhang eines direkten Behandlungseffekts, eines einfachen Carry-over sowie eines Block- und Periodeneffekts beschrieben. Die Modellparameter des Cox-Modells lassen sich mittels der Maximum-Likelihood-Methode schätzen, was auf die Informationsmatrix der direkten Behandlungseffekte schließen lässt. Diese Informationsmatrix dient als Grundlage bei der Suche nach optimalen Versuchsplänen. Im Gegensatz zu Zielgrößen, die mittels eines einfachen linearen Modells erklärt werden können, besteht das zentrale Problem der Arbeit darin, dass die Güte von Versuchsplänen unter der Annahme von Zensierungen von den wahren Modellparametern abhängt. Dies hat zur Folge, dass nur lokal optimale Versuchspläne bestimmt werden können. In der Dissertation werden Versuchspläne gesucht, die möglichst optimal sein sollen, wenn die Unterschiede zwischen den Behandlungen nur schwer erkennbar sind. Weiter werden verschiedene Annahmen an die Modellparameter gestellt, die zu Aussagen über asymptotische Effizienzeigenschaften von Versuchsplänen führen. Für endliche Stichprobengrößen werden anknüpfend anhand von Simulationsstudien die Effizienzen bestimmter Blockdesigns untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit dienen als Grundlage, um Handlungsempfehlungen zur Durchführung von Cross-over Experimenten mit Ereigniszeiten geben zu können. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse weisen insbesondere darauf hin, dass in vielen Situationen optimale Versuchspläne für einfache lineare Modelle hoch effizient sein können.

description: By identifying Hamiltonian flows with geodesic flows of suitably chosen Riemannian manifolds, it is possible to explain the origin of chaos in classical Newtonian dynamics and to quantify its strength. There are several possibilities to geometrize Newtonian dynamics under the action of conservative potentials and the hitherto investigated ones provide consistent results. However, it has been recently argued that endowing configuration space with the Jacobi metric is inappropriate to consistently describe the stability/instability properties of Newtonian dynamics because of the non-affine parametrization of the arc length with physical time. To the contrary, in the present paper, it is shown that there is no such inconsistency and that the observed instabilities in the case of integrable systems using the Jacobi metric are artefacts.

description: Eutrophication of inland waters is an environmental issue that is becoming more common with climatic variability. Monitoring of this aquatic problem is commonly based on the chlorophyll-a concentration monitored by routine sampling with limited temporal and spatial coverage. Remote sensing data can be used to improve monitoring, especially after the launch of the MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) on Sentinel-2. In this study, we compared the estimation of chlorophyll-a (chl-a) from different bio-optical algorithms using hyperspectral proximal remote sensing measurements, from simulated MSI responses and from an MSI image. For the satellite image, we also compare different atmospheric corrections routines before the comparison of different bio-optical algorithms. We used in situ data collected in 2019 from 97 sampling points across 19 different lakes. The atmospheric correction assessment showed that the performances of the routines varied for each spectral band. Therefore, we selected C2X, which performed best for bands 4 (root mean square error—RMSE = 0.003), 5 (RMSE = 0.004) and 6 (RMSE = 0.002), which are usually used for the estimation of chl-a. Considering all samples from the 19 lakes, the best performing chl-a algorithm and calibration achieved a RMSE of 16.97 mg/m3. When we consider only one lake chain composed of meso-to-eutrophic lakes, the performance improved (RMSE: 10.97 mg/m3). This shows that for the studied meso-to-eutrophic waters, we can reliably estimate chl-a concentration, whereas for oligotrophic waters, further research is needed. The assessment of chl-a from space allows us to assess spatial dynamics of the environment, which can be important for the management of water resources. However, to have an accurate product, similar optical water types are important for the overall performance of the bio-optical algorithm.

We find the metallicity of the cluster to be [Fe/H]= -1.58 +/- 0.28 and the age of the cluster to be 3-4 Gyr, slightly older than but consistent with previous age estimates. H VIII seems to be more metal-poor than most intermediate-age globular clusters in the Local Group, and appears most similar to the anomalous Small Magellanic Cloud clusters Lindsay 113 and NGC 339.

description: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) cell sheets combined with biomechanically competent scaffolds might facilitate ACL tissue engineering. Since thermoresponsive polymers allow a rapid enzyme-free detachment of cell sheets, we evaluated the applicability of a thermoresponsive poly(glycidyl ether) (PGE) coating for cruciate ligamentocyte sheet formation and its influence on ligamentocyte phenotype during sheet-mediated colonization of embroidered scaffolds. Ligamentocytes were seeded on surfaces either coated with PGE or without coating. Detached ligamentocyte sheets were cultured separately or wrapped around an embroidered scaffold made of polylactide acid (PLA) and poly(lactic-co-ε-caprolactone) (P(LA-CL)) threads functionalized by gas-phase fluorination and with collagen foam. Ligamentocyte viability, protein and gene expression were determined in sheets detached from surfaces with or without PGE coating, scaffolds seeded with sheets from PGE-coated plates and the respective monolayers. Stable and vital ligamentocyte sheets could be produced within 24 h with both surfaces, but more rapidly with PGE coating. PGE did not affect ligamentocyte phenotype. Scaffolds could be colonized with sheets associated with high cell survival, stable gene expression of ligament-related type I collagen, decorin, tenascin C and Mohawk after 14 d and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. PGE coating facilitates ligamentocyte sheet formation, and sheets colonizing the scaffolds displayed a ligament-related phenotype.

description: The vacuum energy response of a quantum field theory is studied as a function of complex external fields coupled to the symmetry-breaking observables of the theory. It is found that the energy density is insensitive to spontaneous symmetry breaking effects along a special direction in the complex plane. In particular, in the case of vector-like gauge theories such as QCD, the change in energy generated by coupling to pure-gluonic parity-odd operators is always a growing function of the external fields along the real axis, independent of the mode in which symmetry is realized. In light of this, although there is little doubt that parity is not spontaneously broken in massive QCD, the validity of the Vafa and Witten proof is, however, questionable.

description: This paper analyses the income and structural effects of the Single Payment Scheme (SPS). In particular, we analyze how the income distributional effects and farm restructuring are impacted by the SPS by accounting for entitlement tradability, cross-compliance and CAP 'greening' requirements, different SPS implementation models, and the entitlement stock. Our results suggest that the SPS implication details are highly important: farmers’ benefits can range from 100% of the SPS value to a negative policy incidence, and farm structural change may be hindered by the SPS.

description: We study the effect of enforcing exact conservation of charges in statistical models of particle production for systems as large as those relevant to relativistic heavy ion collisions. By using a numerical method developed for small systems, we have been able to approach the large volume limit keeping the exact canonical treatment of all relevant charges, namely baryon number, strangeness and electric charge. Hence, we hereby give the information needed in a hadron gas model whether the canonical treatment is necessary or not in actual cases. Comparison between calculations and experimental particle multiplicities is shown. Also, a discussion on relative strangeness chemical equilibrium is given.

description: This paper examines the determinants of rice-cultivation adoption in inland-valley bottom areas in Ghana. In West African countries, surging import of rice has shown farmers a new and potentially huge income source. Around the second largest urban area in Ghana, Kumsi, there are inland-valley bottoms which are suitable for rain-fed rice cultivation. The puzzle is that not much part of these inland-valley bottoms has been utilized for rice production. In 2001, in four villages around Kumasi, we conducted a detailed household survey both on lowland-rice and upland-maize farmers. We found that the profit from lowland-rice cultivation was significantly lower than that from upland-maize farming. This paper also examines our predictions made from the profit comparisons in 2001 survey by the results of rice-farmer census conducted in 2011 in the same four villages.

description: The vocal extent measure (VEM) represents a new diagnostic tool to express vocal capacity by quantifying the dynamic performance and frequency range of voice range profiles (VRPs). For VEM calculation, the VRP area is multiplied by the quotient of the theoretical perimeter of a circle with equal VRP area and the actual VRP perimeter. Since different diseases affect voice function to varying degrees, pathology-related influences on the VEM should be investigated more detailed in this retrospective study, three years after VEM implementation. Data was obtained in a standardized voice assessment comprising videolaryngostroboscopy, voice handicap index (VHI-9i), and acoustic-aerodynamic analysis with automatic calculation of VEM and dysphonia severity index (DSI). The complete dataset comprised 1030 subjects, from which 994 adults (376 male, 618 female; 18-86 years) were analyzed more detailed. The VEM differed significantly between pathology subgroups (p<0.001) and correlated with the corresponding DSI values. Regarding VHI-9i, the VEM reflected the subjective impairment better than the DSI. We conclude that the VEM proved to be a comprehensible and easy-to-use interval-scaled parameter for objective VRP evaluation in all pathology subgroups. As expected, exclusive consideration of the measured pathology-related influences on the VEM does not allow conclusions regarding the specific underlying diagnosis.

description: We explore the electroluminescence efficiency for a quantum mechanical model of a large number of molecular emitters embedded in an optical microcavity. We characterize the circumstances under which a microcavity enhances harvesting of triplet excitons via reverse intersystem-crossing (R-ISC) into singlet populations that can emit light. For that end, we develop a time-local master equation in a variationally optimized frame which allows for the exploration of the population dynamics of chemically relevant species in different regimes of emitter coupling to the condensed phase vibrational bath and to the microcavity photonic mode. For a vibrational bath that equilibrates faster than R-ISC (in emitters with weak singlet-triplet mixing), our results reveal that significant improvements in efficiencies with respect to the cavity-free counterpart can be obtained for strong coupling of the singlet exciton to a photonic mode, as long as the singlet to triplet exciton transition is within the inverted Marcus regime; under these circumstances, we show the possibility to overcome the detrimental delocalization of the polariton states across a macroscopic number of molecules. On the other hand, for a vibrational bath that equilibrates slower than R-ISC (i.e., emitters with strong singlet-triplet mixing), we find that while enhancemnents in photoluminiscence can be obtained via vibrational relaxation into polaritons, this only occurs for small number of emitters coupled to the photon mode, with delocalization of the polaritons across many emitters eventually being detrimental to electroluminescence efficiency. These findings provide insight on the tunability of optoelectronic processes in molecular materials due to weak and strong light-matter coupling.

description: Reducing Emissions through Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) is one of the few interventions to mitigate global warming being pur- sued at a global scale. Its implementation requires knowledge of the willingness to accept land use change contracts and its effectiveness re- quires its application over large areas. In this paper we use data from Sumatra, Indonesia, to contrast two approaches to the elicitation of the supply curve for carbon sequestration: a reverse uniform auction and a budgetary analysis of opportunity costs. The analysis of the supply curves highlights that individual preferences, namely time and risk preferences, but not the opportunity costs, play a significant role in determining the price villagers are willing to accept land use con- tracts that promote high carbon sequestration systems. The results also indicate that there are significant gains from trade to be made through the implementation of this program, as the price requested by land users in the setting we study is much lower than current carbon prices. Finally, we analyse possible targeting techniques, concluding that a combination of geographic and self selection targeting would be the most efficient way to implement this policy.

description: Aligned grains present a foreground for cosmic microwave emission studies. We review basic physical processes involved in grain alignment and discuss the niches for different alignment mechanisms. We show that mechanisms which were favored for decades do not look so promising right now, while the radiative torque mechanism ignored for more than 20 years looks quite attractive. We discuss alignment of small rotating grains that are thought to be responsible for 10-90 GHz anomalous foreground and polarization arising from magnetic grains.

description: The generic supersymmetric standard model is a model built from a supersymmetrized standard model field spectrum the gauge symmetries only. The popular minimal supersymmetric standard model differs from the generic version in having R-parity imposed by hand. We review an efficient formulation of the model and some of the recently obtained interesting phenomenological features, focusing on one-loop contributions to fermion electric dipole moments.
