Identification of PASK substrates and/or interacting proteins
Creators: name: Johnson, KariAnne Rencher
Publisher: name: University of Utah

Subjects: Biology

description: PAS kinase (PASK) is an evolutionary conserved serine/threonine kinase that appears to have a role in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism. It has previously been shown that mice lacking PASK (PASK"/_ mice) are resistant to the development of hepatic steatosis (lipid accumulation in the liver), glucose intolerance, insulin resistance and obesity when placed on a high fat diet. These results suggest that PASK could be a potential target for the treatment of type II diabetes and obesity, However, the function of PASK at the cellular level is unknown. The aim of this project is to identify substrates and/or interacting partners for PASK in order to better understand its biological significance and connection to metabolic diseases. In order to achieve this objective, FLAG and HA dually-tagged constructs expressing wild type (WT) or kinase inactive (KI) PASK were generated in a viral expression vector. HepG2 cells were then infected with viral particles encoding Nterminally tagged WT or N-terminally tagged KI PASK. Tandem affinity purification (TAP) was optimized for this cell line. After purification, PASK-associated proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. Thyroid hormone receptor associated protein 3 (THRAP3), a protein involved in mRNA splicing, was identified as a potential interacting protein. However, subsequent experiments failed to reproduce this interaction with PASK in co-immunoprecipitation experiments.

description: One objective of Speech Quality Assessment (SQA) is to estimate the ranks of synthetic speech systems. However, recent SQA models are typically trained using low-precision direct scores such as mean opinion scores (MOS) as the training objective, which is not straightforward to estimate ranking. Although it is effective for predicting quality scores of individual sentences, this approach does not account for speech and system preferences when ranking multiple systems. We propose a training framework of SQA models that can be trained with only preference scores derived from pairs of MOS to improve ranking prediction. Our experiment reveals conditions where our framework works the best in terms of pair generation, aggregation functions to derive system score from utterance preferences, and threshold functions to determine preference from a pair of MOS. Our results demonstrate that our proposed method significantly outperforms the baseline model in Spearman's Rank Correlation Coefficient.

description: Narrow-band invisibility in an otherwise opaque medium has been achieved by electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in atomic systems. The quantum EIT behaviour can be classically mimicked by specially engineered metamaterials via carefully controlled interference with a "dark mode". However, the narrow transparency window limits the potential applications that require a tunable wide-band transparent performance. Here, we present a macroscopic quantum superconducting metamaterial with manipulative self-induced broadband transparency due to a qualitatively novel nonlinear mechanism that is different from conventional EIT or its classical analogs. A near complete disappearance of resonant absorption under a range of applied rf flux is observed experimentally and explained theoretically. The transparency comes from the intrinsic bi-stability and can be tuned on/ off easily by altering rf and dc magnetic fields, temperature and history. Hysteretic in situ 100% tunability of transparency paves the way for auto-cloaking metamaterials, intensity dependent filters, and fast-tunable power limiters.

description: Il lavoro di tesi si concentra su uno specifico fenomeno: il cambiamento generalizzato degli assetti istituzionali che si sta verificando in differenti paesi, con specifico riferimento ai paesi europei, a seguito del quale le politiche per lo sviluppo sembrerebbero attualmente convergere. Nello specifico, hanno fatto la loro comparsa: un accresciuto ruolo dei governi locali nell’economie territoriali; l’adozione di strumenti che rafforzano i margini di azione di diversi attori a statuto differenti, la cui natura “quasi” contrattuale favorisce tra di essi la stipula di accordi non convenzionali; forme di partnership pubblico- pubblico e pubblico- privato per la individuazione e per la realizzazione di iniziative di sviluppo, nonché per la produzione di beni pubblici volti ad accrescere la competitività territoriale. L’interrogativo intorno a cui ruota il lavoro di tesi è se l’insieme di queste circostanze stia determinando una convergenza nelle modalità di regolazione politica dell’economia. Il campo di applicazione scelto per l’analisi è rappresentato da nazioni che sperimentano la persistenza di uno squilibrio nel loro sviluppo. In particolare si è scelto di focalizzare l’attenzione sul caso italiano, tedesco e inglese.
Dalla tesi emerge che le esperienze realizzate nei vari paesi europei sono toppo differenziate per permetterne di trarne delle conclusioni univoche in termini di una possibile convergenza delle politiche per lo sviluppo locale intraprese nei paesi esaminati.

description: We propose a simple technique to generate entanglement between distant cavities by using entanglement swapping involving atomic momenta. For the proposed scheme, we have two identical atoms, both initially in their ground state, each incident on far apart cavities with particular initial momenta. The two cavities are prepared initially in superposition of zero and one photon state. First, we interact each atom with a cavity in dispersive way. The interaction results into atom-field entangled state. Then we perform EPR state measurement on both atomic momenta state which is an analog of Bell measurement. The EPR state measurement is designed by passing the atoms through cavity beam splitters which transfers the atomic momentum state into superposition state. Finally, these atoms are detected by the detector. After the detection of the atoms, we can distinguish that cavities in one of the Bell states. This process leads to two distant cavity fields entanglement.

An Objective Definition for the Main Sequence of Star-Forming Galaxies

description: The Main Sequence (MS) of star-forming galaxies plays a fundamental role in driving galaxy evolution and in our efforts to understand it. However, different studies find significant differences in the normalization, slope and shape of the MS. These discrepancies arise mainly from the different selection criteria adopted to isolate star-forming galaxies, that may include or exclude galaxies with specific star formation rate (SFR) substantially below the MS value. To obviate this limitation of all current criteria, we propose an objective definition of the MS that does not rely at all on a pre-selection of star-forming galaxies. Constructing the 3D SFR-Mass-Number plot, the MS is then defined as the ridge line of the star-forming peak, as illustrated with various figures. The advantages of such definition are manifold. If generally adopted it will facilitate the inter-comparison of results from different groups using the same star formation rate (SFR) and stellar mass diagnostics, or to highlight the relative systematics of different diagnostics. All this could help understanding MS galaxies as systems in a quasi-steady state equilibrium and would also provide a more objective criterion for identifying quenching galaxies.

description: Research consumption has been traditionally limited to the reading of academic papers-a static, dense, and formally written format. Alternatively, pre-recorded conference presentation videos, which are more dynamic, concise, and colloquial, have recently become more widely available but potentially under-utilized. In this work, we explore the design space and benefits for combining academic papers and talk videos to leverage their complementary nature to provide a rich and fluid research consumption experience. Based on formative and co-design studies, we present Papeos, a novel reading and authoring interface that allow authors to augment their papers by segmenting and localizing talk videos alongside relevant paper passages with automatically generated suggestions. With Papeos, readers can visually skim a paper through clip thumbnails, and fluidly switch between consuming dense text in the paper or visual summaries in the video. In a comparative lab study (n=16), Papeos reduced mental load, scaffolded navigation, and facilitated more comprehensive reading of papers.

description: Повреждения ключично-акромиального сочленения (АКС), и в первую очередь вывихи ключицы в нем, превышают 10-12 % различных травм в области плечевого сустава. Социальную их важность обуславливает тот факт, что подавляющее большинство пациентов молодые, трудоспособные люди, в том числе и профессионально занимающиеся спортом, в возрасте от 25 до 45 лет. Процент неудовлетворительных исходов лечения вывихов акромиального конца ключицы (АКК) колеблется от 25 до 35 %. Технология многих вмешательств требуют сложного оборудования и имплантатов, трудно доступных в условиях хирургического отделения центральных районных больниц. Цель исследования – изучить и проанализировать исходы операций, примененных в центральной районной больнице больным с вывихами акромиального конца ключицы без использования дорогостоящих сложных конструкций фиксаторов. Материалы и методы исследования. В проведенное исследование вошли 106 пострадавших, лечившихся по поводу вывиха акромиального конца ключицы в Трубчевской ЦРБ за период с 1990 по 2019 г. Их возраст колебался от 18 до 62 лет, мужчин было 104 человека, женщин – 4. Причем наибольшее количество больных приходилось на самый активный возраст от 29 до 38 лет. При хирургическом лечении пострадавших с вывихами акромиального конца ключицы типа II-III по классификации Tossy использовали усовершенствованную классическую методику Уоткинса–Каплана. Выбор данной хирургической технологии был связан с причинами, важными в условиях сельской больницы: минимальным объемом необходимого материала, доступностью техники операции и низкой травматичностью вмешательства. После операции осуществлялась внешняя фиксация верхней конечности с помощью постинг-ортезов (бандажей с различной степенью жесткости), готовых к применению без дополнительных доработок. Результаты. Исходы оперативных вмешательств у 88 больных изучены от 4 месяцев до 23 лет. Анализ эффективности лечения, проведенный по шкале Constant Score, позволил оценить полученные результаты как хорошие и отличные. Неудовлетворительные исходы отсутствовали. Инфекционных осложнений не было. Несмотря на то, что большинство прооперированных имели рабочие специальности, все они вернулись к прежнему трудовому режиму в полном объеме. Заключение. Традиционная технология Уоткинса–Каплана, разработанная достаточно давно для оперативного лечения вывихов акромиального конца ключицы, приводит и в настоящее время во многих случаях к отличным и хорошим анатомо-функциональным исходам, позволяя использовать для фиксации простые и недорогие конструкции.

This thesis presents a first measurement of the nuclear modification in Cu+Cu collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV for production of open heavy flavor at forward rapidity. The nuclear modification factor,RAA, for production of single muons from heavy flavor decay at〈y〉=±1.65 has been measured in three different Cu+Cu centrality classes (0-20%, 20-40%, 40-94%). We also present the first measurement of transverse momentum spectra of invariant yields of production of heavy flavor in symmetric heavy ion collisions at forward rapidity.

description: Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is seen as a region of mass migration and population displacement caused by poverty, violent conflict, and environmental stress. However, empirical evidence is inconclusive regarding how SSA’s international migration progressed and reacted during its march to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This article attempts to study the patterns and determinants of SSA’s international migration and the cause and effects on sustainable development by developing a Sustainability Index and regression models. We find that international migration was primarily intra-SSA to low-income but high-population-density countries. Along with increased sustainability scores, international migration declined, but emigration rose. Climate extremes tend to affect migration and emigration but not universally. Dry extremes propelled migration, whereas wet extremes had an adverse effect. Hot extremes had an increasing effect but were insignificant. SSA’s international migration was driven by food insecurity, low life expectancy, political instability and violence, high economic growth, unemployment, and urbanisation rates. The probability of emigration was mainly driven by high fertility. SSA’s international migration promoted asylum seeking to Europe with the diversification of origin countries and a motive for economic wellbeing. 1% more migration flow or 1% higher probability of emigration led to a 0.2% increase in asylum seekers from SSA to Europe. Large-scale international migration and recurrent emigration constrained SSA’s sustainable development in political stability, food security, and health, requiring adequate governance and institutions for better migration management and planning towards the SDGs.

The effect of the dispersal kernel on isolation-by-distance in a continuous population

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Populations and Evolution (q-bio.PE)

description: Under models of isolation-by-distance, population structure is determined by the probability of identity-by-descent between pairs of genes according to the geographic distance between them. Well established analytical results indicate that the relationship between geographical and genetic distance depends mostly on the neighborhood size of the population, $N_b = 4πσ^2 D_e$, which represents a standardized measure of dispersal. To test this prediction, we model local dispersal of haploid individuals on a two-dimensional torus using four dispersal kernels: Rayleigh, exponential, half-normal and triangular. When neighborhood size is held constant, the distributions produce similar patterns of isolation-by-distance, confirming predictions. Considering this, we propose that the triangular distribution is the appropriate null distribution for isolation-by-distance studies. Under the triangular distribution, dispersal is uniform within an area of $4πσ^2$ (i.e. the neighborhood area), which suggests that the common description of neighborhood size as a measure of a local panmictic population is valid for popular families of dispersal distributions. We further show how to draw from the triangular distribution efficiently and argue that it should be utilized in other studies in which computational efficiency is important

description: The dual-bell nozzle offers the possibility to significantly improve the performances of space launchers that use a core-engine which remains active from sea level to almost vacuum conditions. The presence of an inflection point in the wall geometry determines the existence of two working modes: the full flow condition, which takes place at high altitude and exploits the full expansion ratio, and the separated condition, which takes place at low altitude and allows to limit the expansion ratio in the first part of the mission. The transition between the two modes is a critical issue and, despite several numerical and experimental studies, remains a limiting factor to the application of this technology. There are two problems which can be observed during the transition. The first one is represented by the fact that when the nozzle works in low-altitude mode the static pressure in the recirculation region is lower than the environment pressure: this leads to a premature transition to the high altitude mode which reduces the performance gain. The second problem is represented by the development of side-loads during the transition process: when the separation line moves from the inflection point to the end of the nozzle it loses its symmetry generating strong side loads. In this work a possible solution to the first problem is investigated by simulating the effects of a secondary flow injected in the wall normal direction. The secondary flow is injected just downstream of the inflection point and it represents an obstacle to the primary supersonic flow: as a result the separation line is kept fixed at the inflection point. In this way it is possible to enforce the low altitude working mode for values of nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) which would be characterised by the high-altitude working mode in absence of control. This solution can avoid the premature transition observed in dual-bell nozzles. An interesting point is that the secondary injection should be performed only for a small fraction of the mission: it should start at the altitude where the premature transition would occur and stop at the altitude where the full flow condition becomes more efficient than the low-altitude working mode. In order to investigate the physical effects related to this technology a parametric study is performed by means of RANS simulations. In particular, the requirement and the performance are evaluated in terms of secondary mass flow rate and extension of the low-altitude working mode range, respectively. The numerical results are compared with experimental data available in literature.

description: A smart city provides its people with high standard of living through advanced technologies and transport is one of the major foci. With the advent of autonomous vehicles (AVs), an AV-based public transportation system has been proposed recently, which is capable of providing new forms of transportation services with high efficiency, high flexibility, and low cost. For the benefit of passengers, multitenancy can increase market competition leading to lower service charge and higher quality of service. In this paper, we study the pricing issue of the multi-tenant AV public transportation system and three types of services are defined. The pricing process for each service type is modeled as a combinatorial auction, in which the service providers, as bidders, compete for offering transportation services. The winners of the auction are determined through an integer linear program. To prevent the bidders from raising their bids for higher returns, we propose a strategy-proof Vickrey-Clarke-Groves-based charging mechanism, which can maximize the social welfare, to settle the final charges for the customers. We perform extensive simulations to verify the analytical results and evaluate the performance of the charging mechanism.

description: We present a simple calculation of the flux of secondary positrons produced in the ISM that is based only on priors. Our calculated ISM flux agrees very well with that calculated with the elaborate GALPROP code. It confirms that secondary production of positrons in the ISM by the primary cosmic rays cannot explain the observed sub-TeV flux of CR positrons. Moreover, we show that once energy loss of positrons in source and in the ISM are included, secondary production inside the CR sources plus the ISM does explain the measured near-Earth flux of cosmic ray positrons.

description: We demonstrate that a sodium dimer, Na$_{2}$($1^3Σ_{u}^+$), residing on the surface of a helium nanodroplet, can be set into rotation by a nonresonant 1.0 ps infrared laser pulse. The time-dependent degree of alignment measured, exhibits a periodic, gradually decreasing structure that deviates qualitatively from that expected for gas phase dimers. Comparison to alignment dynamics calculated from the time-dependent rotational Schrödinger equation shows that the deviation is due to the alignment dependent interaction between the dimer and the droplet surface. This interaction confines the dimer to the tangential plane of the droplet surface at the point where it resides and is the reason that the observed alignment dynamics is also well-described by a 2D quantum rotor model.

description: Пожалуй, редко у какого жанра русской литературы есть такие глубокие традиции, как у философской поэзии. Ей отдали дань все великие и высокие поэты России, начиная с Тредиаковского и Ломоносова и далее Твардовским, Волошиным, Ахматовой. Особую дань философскому поэтическому размышлению отдали наши поэты нобелевские лауреаты: Бунин, Пастернак и Бродский. И в рамках этих традиций в поле зрения философской поэзии всегда были два космоса: внутренний мир поэта, со всеми перипетиями его бытия, и ойкумена, или та внешняя, освоенная человечеством часть реальности, которая включала и творения технического прогресса, и плоды научных изысканий, и созданные воображением миры. Именно такой охват философской, и одновременно поэтической тематики свойственен подборке стихов Михаила Пластова. Не больше, но и не меньше. Михаил Пластов автор 33 книг, в том числе и перевода феноменальной книги стихов великого Джеймса Кларка Максвелла, сотен статей, включая естественнонаучные, искусствоведческие, философские, публицистические, политические представляет на суд читателя подборку элегантных философских стихотворных миниатюр. А последнее слово всегда не за автором, не за редактором или издателем, а за читателем.

Screening tools for Predicting PSTD in Acutely Injured Adult Trauma Patients: a Systematic Review
Creators: name: Jensen, Stephanie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Introduction: Adult trauma patients are at risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Early intervention reduces the development of PTSD in traumatized patients, but few patients seek and obtain care. Valid and reliable PTSD screening tools are needed to identify patients at risk of developing PTSD and who would most benefit from early intervention. 
Methods: PubMed, PsychInfo, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from database inception through April 2020. Studies evaluating the predictive accuracy of PTSD screening tools among traumatically injured adult civilians when performed during acute hospitalization were included. Eligible studies had to compare screening test results with assessment of PTSD diagnosis (or likely diagnosis) at least one month later. Eligible outcomes included measures of predictive accuracy, such as sensitivity and specificity. The QUADAS-2 tool was used to assess the risk of bias of each study, and the strength of evidence was assessed following Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality guidelines.
Results: Twenty-nine studies were included evaluating the predictive accuracy of twenty-three screening tools. Most tools were assessed in a single study. Questionnaire-style tools had more favorable predictive ability than diagnostic interview assessments. The Injured Trauma Survivor Screen (ITSS), Posttraumatic Adjustment Screen (PAS), the PTSD checklist for DSM V (PCL-5), and the Richmond et al. tool demonstrated the most favorable predictive accuracy, with high sensitivity (75-100%), specificity (67-94%), and negative predictive value (89-100%). Common sources of bias were selection bias due to inappropriate exclusion criteria, using non-diagnostic tools to assess PTSD symptoms at follow-up, and high attrition rate. 
Discussion: Although sensitivity and specificity of the predictive tools varied widely, several emerged with favorable predictive accuracy. Further research is needed to define the ability of screening and intervention to prevent PTSD in injured trauma survivors. The results of this review can inform screening tool options for future intervention studies.

description: We present the frequency stability performances of a vapor cell Rb clock based on the pulsed optically pumping (POP) technique. The clock has been developed in the frame of a collaboration between INRIM and Leonardo SpA, aiming to realize a space-qualified POP frequency standard. The results here reported were obtained with an engineered physics package, specifically designed for space applications, joint to laboratory-grade optics and electronics. The measured frequency stability expressed in terms of Allan deviation is $1.2 \times 10^{-13}$ at 1 s and achieves the value of $6 \times 10^{-16}$ for integration times of 40000 s (drift removed). This is, to our knowledge, a record result for a vapor-cell frequency standard. In the paper, we show that in order to get this result, a careful stabilization of microwave and laser pulses is required.

The concept of security : uncertainty, evidence and value

subject: Decision making Moral and ethical aspects

description: Typically we think of security as a good like any other, something with a fairly determinate content which is enjoyed by individuals or groups. There have been many conceptions of what this good consists in but little agreement. In this thesis I conduct an analysis of the concept of security, arguing that while conceptions of security disagree about the content of this good, they all rely on an underlying thin concept: a mode of enjoying that content 'securely.' I provide an account what it means for an entity to enjoy a good securely from both a fact-relative and an evidence-relative perspective. From the fact-relative perspective I argue against a commonly held conception of secure enjoyment as protection from the interference of the powerful and instead suggest that it should be understood purely as the objective probability of enjoying the good in the future. From the evidence-relative perspective, I argue that we should understand the security of a good as the minimum degree of credence an agent may justifiably assign to enjoying that good. Securely enjoying a good therefore implies a reasonable guarantee of enjoying that good in the future, even in instances where the available evidence is limited or imprecise. I argue that the secure enjoyment of goods, from both a fact-relative and an evidence-relative perspective, has an important role to play in moral decision-making. In particular, the importance an agent places on the fact-relative security of a good models the agent's attitude towards outcome risks. Likewise, in situations where there are multiple credence functions compatible with the evidence, placing special weight on the secure expected utility of an act, appears to model the importance of avoiding an epistemic risk. In this respect, the value of security may amount to ensuring the achievement of a minimally decent future despite the limits of the available evidence.
РЕВИЗИОННАЯ ХИРУРГИЯ У ПАЦИЕНТОВ С ПСЕВДАРТРОЗОМ И ЗАБОЛЕВАНИЕМ СМЕЖНОГО СЕГМЕНТА ПРИ ДЕГЕНЕРАТИВНО-ДИСТРОФИЧЕСКИХ ЗАБОЛЕВАНИЯХ ПОЯСНИЧНОКРЕСТЦОВОГО ОТДЕЛА ПОЗВОНОЧНИКА

description: Цель исследования – провести сравнительный анализ результатов ревизионной операции при псевдартрозе и заболевании смежного сегмента после декомпрессивно-стабилизирующих вмешательств. Материал и методы. Всего 44 пациента с псевдоартрозом и заболеванием смежного сегмента, перенесшие ревизионную операцию с 2017 по 2020 г. Пациенты были разделены на две группы в зависимости от патологии. Группа 1 состояла из 20 пациентов с диагнозом «псевдоартроз» в возрасте от 36 до 68 лет (М ± SD = 55,6 : 9,9). Группа 2 включала 24 пациента в возрасте от 38 до 79 лет (М ± SD = 58,9 : 12,1) с диагнозом «заболевание смежного сегмента». Результаты. Среднее значение ВАШ и ODI в группе 1, измеренное до и после ревизионной операции, составляло 7,3 и 55,4 соответственно и улучшалось до 1,4 и 11,8 к окончательному наблюдению (p = 0,001). Среднее значение ВАШ и ODI в группе 2 составляло 6,7 и 48,4 соответственно и улучшалось до 17,2 и 2,7 к окончательному наблюдению (p = 0,001). Таким образом, среднее значение ВАШ и ODI улучшилось в обеих группах. Отмечается статистически значимое различие ВАШ между двумя группами (p < 0,001), но баллы ODI были значительно хуже в группе 2, чем в группе 1 (p = 0,002). Заключение. В нашем исследовании пациенты, перенесшие ревизионную операцию по поводу псевдоартроза, имели лучшие клинические и рентгенологические результаты, чем пациенты с заболеванием смежного сегмента. Пациенты с избыточным весом или ожирением и с предоперационной дегенерацией диска в соседнем сегменте должны быть полностью информированы о риске заболеваний смежного сегмента. ALIF является теоретически обоснованным и приемлемым вариантом в лечении псевдоартроза, достижения сагиттального баланса путем сохранения поясничного лордоза, тем самым снижая риск развития заболевания смежного сегмента.

description: We study the different rates of escape of points under iteration by holomorphic self-maps of $\mathbb C^*=\mathbb C\setminus\{ 0\}$ for which both 0 and $\infty$ are essential singularities. Using annular covering lemmas we construct different types of orbits, including fast escaping and arbitrarily slowly escaping orbits to either 0, $\infty$ or both. We also prove several properties about the set of fast escaping points for this class of functions. In particular, we show that there is an uncountable collection of disjoint sets of fast escaping points each of which has the Julia set as its boundary.
