description: In order to theoretically identify the factors governing superconductivity in multi-layer cuprates, a three-layer Hubbard model is studied with the two-particle self-consistent (TPSC) approach so as to incorporate electron correlations. The linearized Eliashberg equation is then solved for the gap function in a matrix form to resolve the role of outer CuO$_2$ planes (OPs) and inner plane (IP). We show that OPs dominate IP in the $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconductivity, while IP dominates in the antiferromagnetism. This comes from an electron correlation effect in that the correlation makes the doping rates different between OPs and IP (i.e., a self-doping effect), which occurs in intermediate and strong correlation regimes. Namely, the antiferromagnetic fluctuations in IP are stronger due to a stronger electron correlation, which simultaneously reduces the quasiparticle density of states in IP with a suppressed $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave superconductivity. Intriguingly, while the off-diagonal (inter-layer) elements in the gap function matrix are tiny, {\it inter-layer pair scattering} processes are in fact at work in enhancing the superconducting transition temperature $T_{\text{c}}$ through the inter-layer Green's functions. This actually causes the trilayer system to have higher $T_{\text{c}}$ than the single-layer in a weak- and intermediate-coupling regimes. This picture holds for a range of the on-site Hubbard repulsion $U$ that contains those estimated for the cuprates. The present result is qualitatively consistent with nuclear magnetic resonance experiments in multi-layer cuprates superconductors.

description: Ethnobotanical reports from Latvia show that Tanacetum vulgare, Calluna vulgaris, Quercus robur, Artemisa absinthium, and Artemisia vulgaris contain phenolic compounds that have antioxidant properties, which can be beneficial in the treatment and prophylaxis of many diseases. The aim of this study was to characterize the phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties of these plants. Plant extracts were prepared using ethanol or acetone and then freeze-dried. Their total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and total tannin content (TTC) were determined and characterized by HPLC. Their antioxidant properties were determined using a DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging assay. C. vulgaris herb and T. vulgare leaf extracts contained the highest amounts of flavonoids, but the bark of Q. robur had mostly tannins and phenolic acids. A. absinthium and A. vulgaris had the lowest amounts of polyphenols. When compared using extraction solvents, all acetone extracts had more TPC, more TFC, and better antioxidant activity. All plants contained chlorogenic acid, which contributes to antioxidant properties. The analysed plant extracts could be used in future studies to develop medicinal products with antioxidant properties.
Mechano-regulation of intraocular pressure through eNOS

Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, and is characterized by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) caused by increased resistance to aqueous humor outflow. The majority of outflow resistance is generated near the inner wall endothelium of Schlemm’s canal (SC). The inner wall experiences a basal-to-apical directed flow as aqueous humor crosses the outflow pathway. As IOP increases, the outflow pathway responds in a pressure-dependent manner, resulting in the expansion of the trabecular meshwork (TM) and the collapse of SC. This effectively reduces the cross-sectional area of the SC lumen and increases the shear stress experienced by SC cells, reaching levels known to activate endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in vascular endothelia. Our central hypothesis examines the role of eNOS as part of a dynamic mechano-regulatory feedback system to regulate the outflow resistance sites through nitric oxide (NO) production to maintain IOP homeostasis. We firstly demonstrated the physiological role of NO and eNOS in regulating aqueous humor outflow through the use of NO-donor and NOS-inhibitors. We also demonstrated that spatial variations in eNOS expression in the SC correlates with regions of greater outflow in the TM. Furthermore, we developed NO-sensitive biosensors to detect changes in NO production in response to elevated IOP, showing that NO production was pressure-dependent. Finally, we demonstrated that targeted delivery of NO to the outflow resistance sites in the TM results in a ~3-fold increase in outflow facility. Taken together, these studies reveal that eNOS plays a crucial regulatory role in conventional outflow physiology by modulating outflow resistance through NO production. This mechano-regulatory feedback mechanism appears to be altered in glaucoma, and thus leads to ocular hypertension and pathogenesis of the disease. Therefore, targeting the NO-regulatory machinery within the outflow pathway may provide a promising therapeutic target for treating glaucoma.

description: We develop a dynamical theory for the origin of nuclear rings in barred galaxies. In analogy with the standard theory of accretion discs, our theory is based on shear viscous forces among nested annuli of gas. However, the fact that gas follows non circular orbits in an external barred potential has profound consequences: it creates a region of reverse shear in which it is energetically favourable to form a stable ring which does not spread despite dissipation. Our theory allows us to approximately predict the size of the ring given the underlying gravitational potential. The size of the ring is loosely related to the location of the Inner Lindblad Resonance in the epicyclic approximation, but the predicted location is more accurate and is also valid for strongly barred potentials. By comparing analytical predictions with the results of hydrodynamical simulations, we find that our theory provides a viable mechanism for ring formation if the effective sound speed of the gas is low ($\cs\lesssim1\kms$), but that nuclear spirals/shocks created by pressure destroy the ring when the sound speed is high ($\cs\simeq10\kms$). We conclude that whether this mechanism for ring formation is relevant for real galaxies ultimately depends on the effective equation of state of the ISM. Promising confirmation comes from simulations in which the ISM is modelled using state-of-the-art cooling functions coupled to live chemical networks, but more tests are needed regarding the role of turbulence driven by stellar feedback. If the mechanism is relevant in real galaxies, it could provide a powerful tool to constrain the gravitational potential, in particular the bar pattern speed.

description: Hydrophobic interactions provide driving forces for protein folding, membrane formation, and oil-water separation. Motivated by information theory, the poorly understood nonpolar solute interactions in water are investigated. A simple heuristic model of hydrophobic effects in terms of density fluctuations is developed. This model accounts quantitatively for the central hydrophobic phenomena of cavity formation and association of inert gas solutes; it therefore clarifies the underlying physics of hydrophobic effects and permits important applications to conformational equilibria of nonpolar solutes and hydrophobic residues in biopolymers.

L'objectif global de cette initiative est de généraliser l'acquisition de données de sondeurs multifaisceaux sur les transits des navires de la flotte, en vue de a) compléter les couvertures bathymétriques existantes à moyenne et haute résolution et contribuer à la cartographie bathymétrique globale des océans, b) établir un protocole d'acquisition et traitement des données des transits valorisées, et c) faciliter les travaux de recherche à travers le partage publique des données acquises lors de ces transits. Les données sont destinées à un usage de cartographie moyenne résolution (modèle numérique de terrain au pas de grille d'une centaine de mètres). L'acquisition de données se fait dans un mode contraint : - la vitesse du navire est celle fixée par le transit, sans ajustement vis-à-vis de la qualité des données ou leur résolution. - le sondeur multifaisceaux est placé dans un mode automatique. L'acquisition n'est pas nécessairement suivie en continu par un opérateur spécialisé. - les profils de célérité utilisés pour l'acquisition des données et le calcul des sondes sont établis à partir de tables globales, sans mesure in-situ de température et salinité lors de l'acquisition (de type sondes de température). Les données sont pré-traitées et validées et sont destinées à être mise à disposition à court terme dans la base de données des navires océanographiques du Sismer. L'acquisition est limitée aux eaux internationales, pour lesquelles aucune demande d'autorisation n'est nécessaire. Cette initiative se fait également en interaction avec le projet Seabed2030.
EARLY DIAGNOSING PARKINSON'S DISEASE VIA A DEEP LEARNING MODEL BASED ON AUGMENTED FACIAL EXPRESSION DATA
Publisher: name: IEEE Signal Processing Society
Year: 2024

description: It is crucial to promptly diagnose potential Parkinson's disease (PD) patients in order to facilitate early treatment and prevent disease progression. In recent years, there has been growing interest in using facial expressions for in-vitro PD diagnosis due to the distinct "masked face" characteristics of PD patients and the cost-effectiveness of this approach. However, current facial expression-based PD diagnosis methods are hindered by limited training data on PD patients' facial expressions and weak prediction models. To address these issues, we propose a new PD diagnosis method that utilizes facial expression data augmentation and deep neural network prediction. Our approach involves two stages: 1) generating virtual facial expression images depicting six basic emotions (anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise) through multi-domain adversarial learning to expand the original training data; 2) training a deep neural network prediction model using a combination of the augmented training data from PD patients and facial expression images of normal individuals from public datasets. Qualitative and quantitative experiments confirm the efficacy of our multi-domain adversarial learning-based facial expression synthesis and demonstrate the promising performance of our proposed approach for PD diagnosis.

Shoulder implant alignment
Creators: name: Bhuta, Asim
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is used to treat patients with glenohumeral joint osteoarthritis. Despite high success rates, complications occur and many patients undergo revision surgeries. The top three most frequent complications are: instability/dislocation of the joint, glenoid loosening and rotator cuff insufficiency. It is believed that these complications occur in most part due to alignment of the implant. In this thesis a two part investigation was conducted to test the effects of joint replacement humeral head version (-15° to 15°) and tilt (-10° to 10°) and glenoid version and tilt (-15° to 15°). The first part investigates the effect of the humeral head alignment on range of motion and activities of daily living using a collision detection modelling method. The second part investigates the effect of both humeral head and glenoid variations on the joint reaction and muscle forces to describe the risk of the three most frequent complications using the United Kingdom National Shoulder Model. This thesis shows that increasing humeral head posterior version decreased the ability to perform activities of daily living (up to 32% at 15°) mostly due to bone-implant collision, increased the risk of the rocking-horse mechanism (by up to 37% at 15°) and increased subscapularis activity (by up to 14% at 15°). Similarly, increasing inferior tilt of the glenoid to 10° produced the best outcomes: vertical rocking-horse mechanism decreased by 19% and no significant differences in muscle forces were observed. In conclusion, normal alignment of the humeral head following surgical guidelines is recommended to increase the chances of implant survival. Posterior versions of the humeral head should be avoided more so than other small mal-alignments. Increasing glenoid inferior tilt to 10° produced favourable results but after combining the results from this thesis and from the literature, it is concluded that all glenoid mal-alignments should be avoided and highlights the need for more effective surgical tools to accurately position the shoulder replacement.

description: This paper describes a mixed direct-iterative method for boundary integral formulations of dielectric solvation models. We give an example for which a direct solution at thermal accuracy is nontrivial and for which Gauss-Seidel iteration diverges in rare but reproducible cases. This difficulty is analyzed by obtaining the eigenvalues and the spectral radius of the iteration matrix. This establishes that the nonconvergence is due to inaccuracies of the asymptotic approximations for the matrix elements for accidentally close boundary element pairs on different spheres. This difficulty is cured by checking for boundary element pairs closer than the typical spatial extent of the boundary elements and for those pairs performing an `in-line' Monte Carlo integration to evaluate the required matrix elements. This difficulty are not expected and have not been observed when only a direct solution is sought. Finally, we give an example application of these methods to deprotonation of monosilicic acid in water.

description: Deep learning (DL) defines a new data-driven programming paradigm where the internal system logic is largely shaped by the training data. The standard way of evaluating DL models is to examine their performance on a test dataset. The quality of the test dataset is of great importance to gain confidence of the trained models. Using an inadequate test dataset, DL models that have achieved high test accuracy may still lack generality and robustness. In traditional software testing, mutation testing is a well-established technique for quality evaluation of test suites, which analyzes to what extent a test suite detects the injected faults. However, due to the fundamental difference between traditional software and deep learning-based software, traditional mutation testing techniques cannot be directly applied to DL systems. In this paper, we propose a mutation testing framework specialized for DL systems to measure the quality of test data. To do this, by sharing the same spirit of mutation testing in traditional software, we first define a set of source-level mutation operators to inject faults to the source of DL (i.e., training data and training programs). Then we design a set of model-level mutation operators that directly inject faults into DL models without a training process. Eventually, the quality of test data could be evaluated from the analysis on to what extent the injected faults could be detected. The usefulness of the proposed mutation testing techniques is demonstrated on two public datasets, namely MNIST and CIFAR-10, with three DL models.

In contrast to protoneutron stars with noninteracting quark phase, the stars with interacting quark phase have smaller maximum star masses than those of neutrino-free stars. The strong field makes the overall equation of state softer compared to the field-free case favoring the evolution of a protoneutron star more towards a neutron star than a black hole.

description: This paper tests a dielectric model for variation of hydration free energy with geometry of complex solutes in water. It works out some basic aspects of the theory of boundary integral methods for these problems. One aspect of the algorithmic discussion lays the basis for multigrid methods of solution, methods that are likely to be necessary for similarly accurate numerical solution of these models for much larger solutes. Other aspects of the algorithmic work show how macroscopic surfaces such as solution interfaces and membranes may be incorporated and also show how these methods can be transferred directly to periodic boundary conditions. This dielectric model is found to give interesting and helpful results for the variation in solvation free energy with solute geometry. However, it typically significantly over-stabilizes classic attractive ion-pairing configurations. On the basis of the examples and algorithmic considerations, we make some observations about extension of this continuum model incrementally to reintroduce molecular detail of the solvation structure.

Inflammation and immunity in severe acute malnutrition
Creators: name: Jones, Kelsey David
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Background: Malnutrition is responsible for 45% of child deaths because it is associated with an increased vulnerability to major infectious disease. The mechanisms behind this association are undefined. It occurs despite the fact that malnourished children have increased levels of enteric and systemic inflammatory activation. Methods: Case-control study of inflammatory activation and response to ex vivo pathogen challenge determined relationships between existing and potential inflammatory function and nutrition. Randomised controlled trial of a gut-specific immunomodulatory agent assessed for functional redundancy in enteric inflammation. Randomised controlled trial of nutritional rehabilitation strategies with enhanced n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid provision assessed for potentially beneficial effects on inflammation. Results: SAM was not associated with abnormalities in systemic cytokine response to innate immune challenge in an ex vivo model compared to control children, but more severe intestinal inflammation, and kwashiorkor may be. Children with SAM and stunting have clear evidence of enteric inflammation, and have evidence of cytokine-mediated inhibition of the GH-IGF-1 axis, which may play a role in linear growth failure. Treatment of children with SAM and stunting with mesalazine appeared to be safe, and there was limited evidence of an impact on enteric inflammation. Stunting is associated with LC-PUFA deficiency, but acute malnutrition is not. Production and administration of a ready-to-use therapeutic food with elevated n-3 PUFA was technically feasible, but was not associated with positive outcomes in growth, recovery or immune function compared to standard treatment. Provision of pre-formed DHA in RUTF may be essential to preserve optimal tissue levels during nutritional rehabilitation. Conclusions: Further strategies targeting inflammatory activation as part of the management of SAM should be trialled. The relationship between systemic and enteric inflammation and nutrition deserves further study.

Structural meso and microscale finite element based approaches for the prediction of bone architecture and fracture
Creators: name: Villette, Claire Charlotte
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: From the earliest records on skeletal research, there has never been a doubt about the interrelation between structure and function of bone. Today, there is a consensus on bone functional adaptation and optimisation to its mechanical environment. However, it is rare for bone to be modelled using a structural mechanics as opposed to a continuum mechanics approach. Yet, there is a need for a considered compromise between the high resolution of microscale continuum models and the computational e ciency associated with macroscale continuum models. This thesis aims at developing novel translational and cost-e ective computational methods for the prediction of bone architecture and fracture, based on a structural representation of bone where cortex and trabecular bone tissue are represented using idealised shell and truss or beam elements, respectively. The PhD project approaches this topic from four di erent yet complementary viewpoints, including mesoscale predictive modelling of bone structure using phenomenological rules for bone remodelling, simulations of bone fracture, manufacture of physical mesoscale bone models, and implementation of a surrogate model for bone remodelling at the microscale poroelastic scale. The methods implemented as part of this thesis allow for the prediction of bio delic inner structural architecture in an entire long bone such as the femur or the tibia based on loading associated with daily living activities, rigorously computed using musculoskeletal simulations. Reorientation of trabecular elements is e ciently predicted using metamodelling or poroelastic mechanisms. The approaches presented here also allow for prediction of bone fracture onset and progression until complete structural failure, as well as assessment of the in uence of subject-speci c activity regimes and bone outer geometry on structural organisation and failure behaviour. Physical models are produced using selective laser sintering based on the modelling results, for applications in testing of protective equipment mitigating trauma. Informed recommendations are drawn from this work. The importance of multiple physical activities, speci cally sit-to-stand, to direct femoral architecture is established. The superiority of elasto-plastic over purely elastic bone material formulation for fracture prediction is assessed and the addition of a separate shear strain criterion is shown ine ectual. The strong in uence of the manner of load application in side fall simulations is also highlighted. These methods provide a number of tools to support investigations in various domains of skeletal biomechanics including rehabilitation, implant and prosthetic design, study of clinical conditions such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, design of sca olds for tissue engineering, and development of injury mitigation measures.

description: A crossing family is a collection of pairwise crossing segments, this concept was introduced by Aronov et. al. (1994). They prove that any set of $n$ points (in general position) in the plain contains a crossing family of size $\sqrt{n/12}$. In this paper we present a generalization of the concept and give several results regarding this generalization.

description: We present a general analysis of the cooling produced by losses on condensates or quasi-condensates. We study how the occupations of the collective phonon modes evolve in time, assuming that the loss process is slow enough so that each mode adiabatically follows the decrease of the mean density. The theory is valid for any loss process whose rate is proportional to the $j$th power of the density, but otherwise spatially uniform. We cover both homogeneous gases and systems confined in a smooth potential. For a low-dimensional gas, we can take into account the modified equation of state due to the broadening of the cloud width along the tightly confined directions, which occurs for large interactions. We find that at large times, the temperature decreases proportionally to the energy scale $mc^2$, where $m$ is the mass of the particles and $c$ the sound velocity. We compute the asymptotic ratio of these two quantities for different limiting cases: a homogeneous gas in any dimension and a one-dimensional gas in a harmonic trap.

description: EGRET (20 MeV to 30 GeV) on board the Compton GRO has observed high-energy emission from about 40-50 Active Galactic Nuclei. Theoretical models of this emission based on the upscattering of thermal disk photons by cooling, relativistic electrons can successfully account for the EGRET observations, but they predict a considerably greater X-ray flux than that actually observed in a majority of these sources. This inconsistency may be an indication that the particles are energized during the Compton scattering process, since the X-ray emission is produced by the lowest energy electrons, whose density may be relatively small due to the acceleration. Such a situation may arise as a result of resistive field generation in electromagnetic acceleration schemes, which we here explore. A key feature of this model is the assumed existence of a current associated with the azimuthal component B_phi of the underlying magnetic field by a slight imbalance in the energy distributions of outwardly moving, relativistic electrons and protons produced at the disk surface via shock acceleration. The generation of an electric field (via magnetic field line reconnection) is thus required to maintain the current in the presence of a resistivity induced by the radiative drag on the relativistic electrons. We show that the resulting spectrum can exhibit a significant deficit of X-rays compared with gamma-rays. In addition, due to the uni-directional flow of the current associated with B_phi, this model would predict that the electrons are energized relative to the protons in the outflow only on one side of the disk. They should be decelerated on the reverse side. As such, we would anticipate that any given blazar should have a ~50% probability of being gamma-bright, which appears to be consistent with the observed ratio.

description: The MnmE-MnmG complex of Escherichia coli uses either ammonium or glycine as a substrate to incorporate the 5-aminomethyl or 5-carboxymethylaminomethyl group into the wobble uridine of certain tRNAs. Both modifications can be converted into a 5-methylaminomethyl group by the independent oxidoreductase and methyltransferase activities of MnmC, which respectively reside in the MnmC(o) and MnmC(m) domains of this bifunctional enzyme. MnmE and MnmG, but not MnmC, are evolutionarily conserved. Bacillus subtilis lacks genes encoding MnmC(o) and/or MnmC(m) homologs. The glycine pathway has been considered predominant in this typical gram-positive species because only the 5-carboxymethylaminomethyl group has been detected in tRNALysUUU and bulk tRNA to date. Here, we show that the 5-methylaminomethyl modification is prevalent in B. subtilis tRNAGlnUUG and tRNAGluUUC. Our data indicate that B. subtilis has evolved MnmC(o)- and MnmC(m)-like activities that reside in non MnmC homologous protein(s), which suggests that both activities provide some sort of biological advantage.

description: Background/Aim: This study aimed to develop a protocol that combines cone-beamcomputed tomography (CBCT), software, and 3D printing to design 3D replicas fortooth autotransplantation. The goal was to evaluate the impact of this approach onthe extraoral time of the donor teeth and the total surgical time, thereby enhancingsurgical efficiency and outcomes.Materials and Methods: A non-randomized trial (protocol 10.1186/ISRCTN13563091)was conducted at Riga Stradins University, enrolling 46 patients (13–22 years old)who required molar extraction and possessed a non-erupted third molar. The patientswere sequentially assigned to a 3D replica group (24 patients) or a control group (22patients). The primary outcome measured was the extra-alveolar time of the donortooth, and the secondary outcome was the total duration of surgery. Both were assessedusing a sample size capable of detecting a 10-min difference. A generalizedlinear model adjusted for various factors was used to test for significant time differences(p < .05) between the groups.Results: Forty-six patients were included in this analysis. The effect of using 3D replicaswas not statistically significant and was associated with a decrease in the extraoraltime of the donor tooth in seconds (β = −9.35, 95% CI [−40.86, 22.16]). For the totalsurgical time in minutes, the use of 3D replicas had a statistically significant impact,reducing the operation duration in minutes (β = −13.42, 95% CI [−24.50, −2.34]). Noearly complications were observed in either group, with all teeth present at 3–4 weekspost-surgery.Conclusions: The integration of 3D printing technology can enhance the efficiency ofautotransplantation surgeries, primarily by reducing surgical time.

description: In our endeavour towards the development of effective anticancer therapeutics, a novel series of isoxazole-piperazine hybrids were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against human liver (Huh7 and Mahlavu) and breast (MCF-7) cancer cell lines. Within series, compounds 5l-o showed the most potent cytotoxicity on all cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 0.3–3.7 μM. To explore the mechanistic aspects fundamental to the observed activity, further biological studies with 5m and 5o in liver cancer cells were carried out. We have demonstrated that 5m and 5o induce oxidative stress in PTEN adequate Huh7 and PTEN deficient Mahlavu human liver cancer cells leading to apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at different phases. Further analysis of the proteins involved in apoptosis and cell cycle revealed that 5m and 5o caused an inhibition of cell survival pathway through Akt hyperphosphorylation and apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through p53 protein activation.

description: With print circulations in decline and the print advertising market shrinking, newspapers in many countries are under pressure. Some—like Finland’s Taloussanomat and Canada’s La Presse—have decided to stop printing and go online-only. Others, like the Sydney Morning Herald, are debating whether to follow. Those newspapers that have made the switch often paint a rosy picture of a sustainable and profitable digital future. This study examines the reality behind the spin via a case study of The Independent, a general-interest UK national newspaper that went digital-only in March 2016. We estimate that, although its net British readership did not decline in the year after it stopped printing, the total time spent with The Independent by its British audiences fell 81%, a disparity caused by huge differences in the habits of online and print readers. This suggests that when newspapers go online-only they may move back into the black, but they also forfeit much of the attention they formerly enjoyed. Furthermore, although The Independent is serving at least 50% more overseas browsers since going online-only, the relative influence on that growth of internal organizational change and external factors—such as the “Trump Bump” in news consumption—is difficult to determine.
