description: Thermoelectric phenomena resulting from an interplay between particle flows induced by electric fields and temperature inhomogeneities are extremely insightful as a tool providing substantial knowledge about the microscopic structure of a given system. Tuning, e.g., parameters of a nanoscopic system coupled via tunneling mechanisms to two contacts one may achieve various situations where the electric current induced by an external bias voltage competes with the electric current excited by the temperature difference of the two contacts. Even more exciting physics emerges when the system's electronic degrees freedom split to form Majorana fermions which make the thermoelectric dynamics universal. Here we propose revealing this unique universal signatures of Majorana fermions in strongly nonequilibrium quantum dots via noise of the thermoelectric transport beyond linear response. It is demonstrated that whereas mean thermoelectric quantities are only universal at large bias voltages, the noise of the electric current excited by an external bias voltage and the temperature difference of the contacts is universal at any bias voltage. We provide truly universal, i.e. independent of the system's parameters, thermoelectric ratios between nonlinear response coefficients of the noise and mean current at large bias voltages where experiments may easily be performed to uniquely detect these truly universal Majorana thermoelectric signatures.

description: We present the results of an extensive exploration of the five-dimensional parameter space of the minimal $SU(5)$ supergravity model, including the constraints of a long enough proton lifetime ($τ_p>1\times10^{32}\y$) and a small enough neutralino cosmological relic density ($Ω_χh^2_0\le1$). We find that the combined effect of these two constraints is quite severe, although still leaving a small region of parameter space with $m_{\tilde g,\tilde q}<1\TeV$. The allowed values of the proton lifetime extend up to $τ_p\approx1\times10^{33}\y$ and should be fully explored by the SuperKamiokande experiment. The proton lifetime cut also entails the following mass correlations and bounds: $m_h\lsim100\GeV$, $m_χ\approx{1\over2}m_{χ^0_2}\approx0.15\gluino$, $m_{χ^0_2}\approx m_{χ^+_1}$, and $m_χ<85\,(115)\GeV$, $m_{χ^0_2,χ^+_1}<165\,(225)\GeV$ for $α_3=0.113\,(0.120)$. Finally, the {\it combined} proton decay and cosmology constraints predict that if $m_h\gsim75\,(80)\GeV$ then $m_{χ^+_1}\lsim90\,(110)\GeV$ for $α_3=0.113\,(0.120)$. Thus, if this model is correct, at least one of these particles will likely be observed at LEPII.

description: Constraints on the required flatness of the scalar potential $V(ϕ)$ for a cousin-model to extended inflation are studied. It is shown that, unlike earlier results, Induced-gravity Inflation can lead to successful inflation with a very simple lagrangian and $λ\sim 10^{-6}$, rather than $10^{-15}$ as previously reported. A second order phase transition further enables this model to escape the \lq big bubble' problem of extended inflation, while retaining the latter's motivations based on the low-energy effective lagrangians of supergravity, superstring, and Kaluza-Klein theories.

description: The condition of a building is an important factor for real estate valuation. Currently, the estimation of condition is determined by real estate appraisers which makes it subjective to a certain degree. We propose a novel vision-based approach for the assessment of the building condition from exterior views of the building. To this end, we develop a multi-scale patch-based pattern extraction approach and combine it with convolutional neural networks to estimate building condition from visual clues. Our evaluation shows that visually estimated building condition can serve as a proxy for condition estimates by appraisers.

Economic Growth

description: This paper presents an introductory long-term analysis and modelling of the implementation of Universal Basic Income using a modified Solow-Swan growth model with an extension on the labour and capital markets. It concludes that, given the right policy implementation, basic income could induce a long-term rise of the steady state equilibrium for production per capita and wages through an increase in demand and consumption, while also improving the long-term growth rate by supporting entrepreneurship and thus enhancing technological development. However, these positive aspects largely depend on the tax collection method and stickiness of high-incomes and large corporations to the domestic country, making the policy promising but unreliable without further analysis.

description: Indoor air quality (IAQ) plays a significant role in human health, and CO2 has a long history of use as an IAQ indicator. Formaldehyde is one of the most ubiquitous indoor pollutants with proven adverse health effects. However, formaldehyde sensors are generally expensive, and they are not as accurate as CO2 sensors. Thus, it is important to determine whether CO2 could be used as an indicator for formaldehyde in engineering applications. In this study, indoor CO2 and formaldehyde concentrations in actual Chinese residences under natural and mechanical ventilation were simulated by the Monte Carlo method. The Pearson correlation analyses were also performed. It was found that when emission rate of CO2 is constant, CO2 can act as a good indicator for formaldehyde when the formaldehyde emission rate (mg/h) divided by the emission rate of CO2 (L/h) is smaller than 0.14 and positive correlation occurred between them. However, when the emission rate of CO2 is varied, CO2 may not be used as an indicator for formaldehyde despite their positive correlation.

description: Using a non-parametric procedure developed by Kaiser \& Squires (1993), we analyse the statistical image distortions of faint field galaxies to $I\ls25.5$ in two distant X-ray luminous clusters 1455+22 ($z_{cl}=0.26$) and 0016+16 ($z_{cl}=0.55$) to derive two dimensional projected mass distributions for the clusters. The mass maps of 1455+22 and 0016+16 are presented at effective resolutions of 135 kpc and 200 kpc respectively (for $H_o$=50 kms sec$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$, $q_o=0.5$) with a mean signal to noise per resolution element of 17 and 14. We compare our 2-D mass distributions on scales up to $\sim$1 Mpc with those defined by the spatial distribution of colour-selected cluster members and from deep high resolution X-ray images of the hot intracluster gas. Despite the different cluster morphologies, one being cD-dominated and the other not, in both cases the form of the mass distribution derived from the lensing signal is strikingly similar to that traced by both the cluster galaxies and the hot X-ray gas. We find some evidence for a greater central concentration of dark matter with respect to the galaxies. The overall similarity between the distribution of total mass and that defined by the baryonic components presents a significant new observational constraint on the nature of dark matter and the evolutionary history of rich clusters.

description: Whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators are compelling optical devices, however they are nearly unexplored in the terahertz (THz) domain. In this letter, we report on THz WGMs in quartz glass bubble resonators with sub-wavelength wall thickness. An unprecedented study of both the amplitude and phase of THz WGMs is presented. The coherent THz frequency domain measurements are in excellent agreement with a simple analytical model and results from numerical simulations. A high finesse of 9 and a quality (Q) factor exceeding 440 at 0.47 THz are observed. Due to the large evanescent field the high Q-factor THz WGM bubble resonators can be used as a compact, highly sensitive sensor in the intriguing THz frequency range.

description: Introduction Epilepsy is a common disease with an incidence of 20-70 per 100 000 annually and prevalence of 0.5-1 % of the population. Data to date assessing psychopathology in refractory epilepsy patients is conflicting. In a subgroup of medically refractory epilepsy patients, surgical intervention is considered. Studies of outcome after neurosurgical resection of epileptogenic tissue or temporal lobectomy focus on frequency of seizures as their primary outcome measure. Neurosurgical intervention for epilepsy is associated with significant undesired psychiatric consequences including psychosis, major depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and suicide. Methods This study is prospective cohort study which examined a group of patients with medically refractory epilepsy, and also examined a cohort who proceeded to surgery before and after surgery. This study used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM IV (SCID I), to examine for an axis-1 psychiatric diagnosis. In addition, the study assessed the presence of personality disorder using the SCID-II. The Quality of life in Epilepsy (QOLIE-89) assessed social outcome. All patients admitted to the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit or who attended the Neurology OPD in Beaumont Hospital with treatment resistant epilepsy are considered a candidate for inclusion. All participants were assessed using the same instruments as those unwilling to participate. Those that proceeded to surgery were reassessed three to six-months after surgery using the same structured interview and standardised self rating questionnaires. Conclusions The findings of this study demonstrated the high prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity (49%) in patients with medically refractory epilepsy. In addition, the presence of a psychiatric disorder and the severity of the symptoms of psychiatric illness were correlated strongly with quality of life. Overall, this study has demonstrated that undergoing surgery for medically refractory epilepsy had an overall positive Impact on mental health with a significant reduction in the severity and prevalence of psychiatric symptoms and an improved quality of life.

description: Vehicle fleets support a diverse array of functions and are increasing rapidly in the world of today. For a vehicle fleet, maintenance plays a critical role. In this article, an evolutionary algorithm is proposed to optimize the vehicle fleet maintenance schedule based on the predicted remaining useful lifetime (RUL) of vehicle components to reduce the costs of repairs, decrease maintenance downtime and make them safer for drivers. The multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) is then enhanced to focus precisely on the preferred solutions. Moreover, stability is involved as another objective in the dynamic MOEA for handling the problem under changes in the environment. To implement the complete maintenance process, a simulator is developed that can define vehicles, predict the RUL of components and optimize the maintenance schedule in a rolling-horizon fashion. The results of the proposed MOEAs under different scenarios are reported and compared.
The 'totality' of psychosis: systematic comparison of the major psychotic diagnoses in the Cavan-Monaghan First Episode Psychosis Study (CAMFEPS)

description: Major psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia (SZ), bipolar disorder (BD) and major depressive disorder with psychotic features (MDDP) are global leading causes of disability-adjusted life years. Considerable advances in research into these disorders over the last few decades have resulted in more reliable operational diagnoses, improved treatment approaches and better outcomes. However, absence of neurobiological markers and high rates of cormorbidity mean that differentiating various psychotic disorders within the totality of psychosis and identifying boundaries between psychosis and normality remain unclear. While recent research on psychotic illness has focussed on the nosological, clinical and biological relationship between SZ and BD, little attention has been directed to the most common alternative psychotic diagnosis, major depressive disorder with psychotic features (MDDP). This thesis is based on a crossectional study within the Cavan-Monagahan First Episode Psychosis Study (CAMFEPS), a naturalistic study of patients characterised by substantive ethnic and socioeconomic homogeneity and stability. Its purpose is to systematically compare epidemiological, clinical and pathobiological characteristics of major DSM-IV psychotic diagnoses, including the BD specifier ‘with’ vs ‘without’ psychotic features, to better understand if these disorders are distinct entities or nodes on a continuum of psychotic illness. SZ, BD and MDDP emerged as the three major diagnostic groupings. The results indicated that each of these post hoc diagnoses share similar incident rates and can occur at any time over the adult lifespan in both males and females. While SZ and BD were primarily disorders of young adulthood, the first psychotic episode of MDDP was uniformly distributed across the adult lifespan; while the incidence of SZ was more common in males than in females, incidence o f BD and MDDP did not differ between the sexes. Relative to SZ, MDDP was characterised by similar negative symptoms, executive dysfunction, neurological soft signs, premorbid intellectual and social dysfunction, and quality of life; in contrast, BD was characterised by less prominent negative symptoms, executive dysfunction and neurological soft signs, and by better quality of life. These novel findings suggest that what we currently categorise as MDDP may be more closely aligned with SZ and BD than has been considered previously. They indicate that the intricacies of how psychosis is manifested vis-à-vis depression and mania may be occurring within a dimensional space, rather than validating categorical distinctions.
Possible Finiteness of the Higgs-Boson Mass Renormalization

description: It is shown by explicit calculation that the one-loop mass renormalization of the Higgs boson in the standard model is gauge-independent. It could even be rendered finite if the following mass relationships were satisfied: $m_t^2 \simeq m_H^2 = (2 M_W^2 + M_Z^2)/3$. Numerically, this would imply $m_t \simeq 84~GeV$ which is below the current experimental lower bound of 91 GeV, but since higher-order corrections are yet to be calculated, the above hypothesis could still have a chance of being realized.

description: The vast separation dividing the characteristic times of energy confinement and turbulence in the core of toroidal plasmas makes first-principles prediction on long timescales extremely challenging. Here we report the demonstration of a multiple-timescale method that enables coupling global gyrokinetic simulations with a transport solver to calculate the evolution of the self-consistent temperature profile. This method, which exhibits resiliency to the intrinsic fluctuations arising in turbulence simulations, holds potential for integrating nonlocal gyrokinetic turbulence simulations into predictive, whole-device models.

Day Surgery in Ireland: current barriers and determining a consensus driven best practice approach
Creators: name: Meshkat, Babak
Publisher: name: Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Recent reports have suggested that day case rates vary significantly across Irish hospitals. Aim: To gain an understanding of the structures and processes which currently facilitate or constrain optimisation of day surgery in Ireland and development of recommendations for future practice including how barriers may be overcome. Method: A two stage study was undertaken. The first stage aimed to develop an understanding of current day surgery practices. A national survey of private and public hospitals day surgery activity in Ireland was undertaken. This was followed by an in-depth chart review of 200 patient charts from two Irish teaching hospitals to outline current practices in elective surgical services. The second stage built on the first stage and aimed to develop statements of best practice for day surgery. A three round electronic Delphi process (eDelphi) aimed towards gaining consensus among experts in the field was undertaken. Results: The national survey demonstrated a wide range of practices in hospitals across the country. The single most important barrier to increased day surgery identified by respondents was custom and practices and a lack of pre-assessment. Through the chart review the lack of pre-assessment and its effects on the day surgery process were confirmed, as well as other reversible barriers. Using the eDelphi process, consensus was achieved on 40 statements of best practice covering the following areas: patient information, pre-admission/pre-assessment, documentation, management of day surgery, discharge protocols and monitoring of services.  Conclusion: The study is the first of its type in Ireland and has provided clarity on current day surgical practices. There is considerable variation in day surgery practices across Irish hospitals. Statements of best practice based on consensus of experts working in these services were developed and will support a national change in day surgery practices.

description: Nucleation rates for tunneling processes in Minkowski and de Sitter space are investigated, taking into account one loop prefactors. In particular, we con- sider the creation of membranes by an antisymmetric tensor field, analogous to Schwinger pair production. This can be viewed as a model for the decay of false (or true) vacuum at zero temperature, in the thin wall limit. Also considered is the spontaneous nucleation of strings, domain walls and monopoles during inflation. The instantons for these processes are spherical world-sheets or world-lines embedded in flat or de Sitter backgrounds. We find the contribution of such instantons to the semiclassical partition function, including one loop corrections due to small fluctuations around the spherical worldsheet. We sug- gest a prescription for obtaining the distribution of objects nucleated during inflation. This can be seen as an extension of the usual formula, valid in flat space, according to which the nucleation rate is twice the imaginary part of the free energy. In addition, we use the method of Bogolubov transformations to compute the rate of pair production by an electric field in 1+1 dimensional de Sitter space, and compare the results to those obtained using the instanton me- thod. Both results agree where they are expected to, not only in the exponen- tial dependence but also in the prefactor, confirming the validity of instanton techniques in de Sitter space. Throughout the paper, both the gravitational field and the antisymmetric tensor field are assumed external.

description: Mass measurements of gravitational microlenses require one to determine the microlens parallax $\pie$, but precise $\pie$ measurement, in many cases, is hampered due to the subtlety of the microlens-parallax signal combined with the difficulty of distinguishing the signal from those induced by other higher-order effects. In this work, we present the analysis of the binary-lens event OGLE-2017-BLG-0329, for which $\pie$ is measured with a dramatically improved precision using additional data from space-based $Spitzer$ observations. We find that while the parallax model based on the ground-based data cannot be distinguished from a zero-$\pie$ model at 2$σ$ level, the addition of the $Spitzer$ data enables us to identify 2 classes of solutions, each composed of a pair of solutions according to the well-known ecliptic degeneracy. It is found that the space-based data reduce the measurement uncertainties of the north and east components of the microlens-parallax vector $\pivec_{\rm E}$ by factors $\sim 18$ and $\sim 4$, respectively. With the measured microlens parallax combined with the angular Einstein radius measured from the resolved caustic crossings, we find that the lens is composed of a binary with components masses of either $(M_1,M_2)\sim (1.1,0.8)\ M_\odot$ or $\sim (0.4,0.3)\ M_\odot$ according to the two solution classes. The first solution is significantly favored but the second cannot be securely ruled out based on the microlensing data alone. However, the degeneracy can be resolved from adaptive optics observations taken $\sim 10$ years after the event.

description: SUMMARY P2Y12 receptor antagonists including clopidogrel, prasugrel or ticagrelor in addition toaspirin are the standard of care for the treatment in acute coronary syndrome andpercutaneous coronary intervention. The benefit of this therapy is based on the balance between the reduction of ischaemic events and minimising bleeding risk. Therefore, it isimportant to have strategies to both ensure the optimal inhibition of the P2Y12 receptor andthe effective prevention and treatment of bleeding events. These form the basis for our three studies. In the first study, we demonstrated in 241 patients after an acute coronary syndrome, thefeasibility of individualised P2Y12 receptor antagonist therapy based on rapid genotyping to identify common CYP2C19 polymorphisms associated with clopidogrel metabolism. Our findings show that this strategy, when combined with follow up point-of-care platelet function testing, almost eliminated high on-treatment platelet reactivity (2.9%) and allowed the more judicious use of prasugrel therapy, thereby minimising both thrombotic and bleeding risk. In the latter two studies, we examined in an ex-vivo and in-vivo model the biological efficacy of platelet transfusion in the restoration of platelet function in patients on P2Y12 receptor antagonists. In 35 patients receiving loading doses of clopidogrel and prasugrel for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) we demonstrated that increasing proportions of platelets are needed reverse stronger P2Y12 inhibition. In the ex-vivo model, we showed that in 33 cardiac surgery patients on P2Y12 receptor antagonists that were given platelet transfusion for perioperative bleeding, there was a 30% increase in platelet activation vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) phosphorylation platetet reactivity index (PRI), a sensitive marker of platelet activation. Platelet transfusion was also associated with changes in the rate and strength of clot formation as assessed by thromboelastograph (TEG). In conclusion, we demonstrated strategies to best identify patients outside the therapeutic window of P2Y12 receptor antagonism using rapid genetic and point-of-care platelet function platforms, allowing the tailored selection of treatment with the potential to avoid future adverse clinical events. For those presenting with bleeding events, we showed the biological efficacy of the strategy of platelet transfusion for the rapid reversal of P2Y12 therapy in both the ACS/PCI and the cardiac surgery setting.

description: Let G/K be a Riemannian symmetric space of the complex type, meaning that G is complex semisimple and K is a compact real form. Now let Γ be a discrete subgroup of G that acts freely and cocompactly on G/K. We consider the Segal--Bargmann transform, defined in terms of the heat equation, on the compact quotient Γ\G/K. We obtain isometry and inversion formulas precisely parallel to the results we obtained previously for globally symmetric spaces of the complex type. Our results are as parallel as possible to the results one has in the dual compact case. Since there is no known Gutzmer formula in this setting, our proofs make use of double coset integrals and a holomorphic change of variable.

description: A multiple columns and detections liquid chromatography system, including size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), for the analysis of macromolecules and micromolecules in ginseng root and leaf was developed. The columns were connected by two switching valves. Macromolecules were separated on a SEC column (TSK gel SuperMultipore PW-H column, 6 mm× 150 mm, 8 μm) by isocratic elution of 50 mM ammonium acetate aqueous solution, 0.3 mL/min of flow rate and detected by evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD). Micromolecules were analyzed on a Poroshell RP column (Agilent Poroshell 120 SB-Aq column, 4.6 mm × 50 mm, 2.7 µm) with gradient elution of water and acetonitrile, 0.6 mL/min of flow rate and detected by ultraviolet detection (UV). As a result, in the macromolecules chromatogram of ginseng root sample showed two main peaks while only one major peak for ginseng leaf. For micromolecules analysis, 17 compounds (3 nucleosides + 14 saponins) and 17 compounds (3 nucleosides + 1 flavonoid + 13 saponins) were found in ginseng root and leaf, respectively. The developed method is helpful for the quality evaluation of ginseng root and leaf.

description: Aims: The aim of this study was to determine association between inflammation, glucose control and type 2 diabetes (T2D) related complications. Methods: We determined cytokines, adipokines & Toll-like receptors (TLR) mRNA expression in monocytes (M) and neutrophils (N) using QPCR in a cohort of 146 subjects: non-diabetic controls [NGT; n=34, BMI 26 (24-30) kg/m2, HbA1c 5.6 (5.4-5.7)%] and compared them with T2D with four different profiles: good glycaemic control without complications [GC; n=27, BMI 32 (29-38) kg/m2, HbA1c 6.4 (6.0-6.9)%], good glycaemic control with complications [GCC; n=32, BMI 31 (28-35) kg/m2, HbA1c 6.9 (6.4-7.4)%], poor glycemic control without complications [PC; n=21, BMI 35 (31-37) kg/m2, HbA1c 10.2 (9.2-11)%] and poor glycaemic control with complications [PCC; n=32, BMI 34 (29-37) kg/m2, HbA1c 9.6 (8.9-10.8)%]. Data are expressed as median (Inter quartile range). Results: The highest expressions of IL-6, TNFα, Rantes & IFNβ mRNA in neutrophils, and IL-6 and IFNβ mRNA in monocytes were seen in GC, compared to NGT. In contrast, IL-1β mRNA expression was significantly decreased in monocytes from GCC, PC and PCC. Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), Lipocalin 2 and adiponectin mRNA in neutrophils, and RBP4 mRNA in monocytes were significantly overexpressed in GC, compared to NGT. In contrast, Lipocalin 2 and adiponectin mRNA were significantly suppressed in monocytes from PC and PCC. Similarly, TLRs mRNA 1-10, except TLR 2 in neutrophils, and TLR1, 3, 5, 7, 9 & 10 in monocytes were overexpressed from GC group compared to NGT. Conclusions: The overexpressed cytokine, adipokine & TLR mRNA levels in monocytes and neutrophils from GC group indicate an inflammatory milieu in T2D with good glycaemic control with no complications. In contrast, suppressed levels of inflammatory markers in PC, GCC & PCC indicate compromised innate immune state i.e. “burnt out” disease in poor glycaemic control, and in patients with complications.
