description: Abstract: Cardiolipins (CLs) are tetra-acylated diphosphatidylglycerols found in bacteria, yeast, plants, and animals. In healthy mammals, CLs are unsaturated, whereas saturated CLs are found in blood cells from Barth syndrome patients and in some Gram-positive bacteria. Here, we show that unsaturated but not saturated CLs block LPS-induced NF-κB activation, TNF-α and IP-10 secretion in human and murine macrophages, as well as LPS-induced TNF-α and IL-1β release in human blood mononuclear cells. Using HEK293 cells transfected with Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and its co-receptor Myeloid Differentiation 2 (MD2), we demonstrate that unsaturated CLs compete with LPS for binding TLR4/MD2 preventing its activation, whereas saturated CLs are TLR4/MD2 agonists. As a consequence, saturated CLs induce a pro-inflammatory response in macrophages characterized by TNF-α and IP-10 secretion, and activate the alternative NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in human blood-derived monocytes. Thus, we identify that double bonds discriminate between anti- and pro-inflammatory properties of tetra-acylated molecules, providing a rationale for the development of TLR4 activators and inhibitors for use as vaccine adjuvants or in the treatment of TLR4-related diseases.

description: We investigate the extent to which a grocery retailer merger has different effects on the prices of national and store brands. Using retail scanner data, we retrospectively analyze a food retail acquisition in a large United States city. We focus on fluid milk and ready-to-eat cereal categories, which represent a relatively homogenous and a relatively differentiated product category, respectively. We use a difference-in-difference estimation framework to obtain the causal effect of the acquisition on prices for the acquiring retailer. Our findings provide evidence that store brands in differentiated product categories could allow a retailer to improve its market power.

description: We present a simple semi-numerical model designed to explore black hole growth and galaxy evolution. This method builds on a previous model for black hole accretion that uses a semi-numerical galaxy formation model and universal Eddington ratio distribution to describe the full AGN population by independently connecting galaxy and AGN growth to the evolution of the host dark matter halos. We fit observed X-ray luminosity functions up to a redshift of z ~ 4, as well as investigate the evolution of the Eddington ratio distributions. We find that the Eddington ratio distribution evolves with redshift such that the slope of the low-Eddington accretion rate distribution increases with cosmic time, consistent with the behavior predicted in hydrodynamical simulations for galaxies with different gas fractions. We also find that the evolution of our average Eddington ratio is correlated with observed star formation histories, supporting a picture in which black holes and galaxies evolve together in a global sense. We further confirm the impact of luminosity limits on observed galaxy and halo properties by applying selection criteria to our fiducial model and comparing to surveys across a wide range of redshifts.

description: We study the statistics and short-times dynamics of the classical and the quantum Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chain in thermal equilibrium. We analyze the distributions of single-particle configurations by integrating out the rest of the system. At low temperatures we observe a systematic increase in the mobility of the chain when transitioning from classical to quantum mechanics due to zero-point energy effects. We analyze the consequences of the quantum dispersion on the dynamics at short times of configurational correlation functions.

description: Electron transport in a new low-dimensional structure - the nuclear spin polarization induced quantum wire (NSPI QW) is theoretically studied. In the proposed system the local nuclear spin polarization creates the effective hyperfine field which confines the electrons with the spins opposite to the hyperfine field to the regions of maximal nuclear spin polarization. The influence of the nuclear spin relaxation and diffusion on the electron energy spectrum and on the conductance of the quantum wire is calculated and the experimental feasibility is discussed.

Gynecologic Surgical procedures
Hysterectomy

description: Funder: CMR Surgical
description: Abstract: Robot-assisted laparoscopy has been developed to overcome some of the important limitations of conventional laparoscopy. In particular, the provision of stable magnified three-dimensional vision, tremor filtering, motion scaling, and articulated instruments with robot-assisted surgery has the potential to enable more surgeons to perform more complex surgery compared with conventional laparoscopy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of a new robot-assisted surgical system (Versius, CMR Surgical, Cambridge, UK) for gynecologic procedures in a preclinical setting. Cadaveric sessions were conducted to evaluate the ability of the system to complete all surgical steps required for a robot-assisted total laparoscopy hysterectomy. A live animal (porcine) model was used to assess the system in performing oviduct removal as a surrogate for robot-assisted total laparoscopy hysterectomy. Procedures were performed by experienced gynecologic surgeons, supported by a surgical team. The precise surgical steps conducted to conclude that the procedures could be fully completed were systematically recorded, as well as instruments used and endoscope angle. In total, six gynecologic procedures were performed in cadavers by four surgeons; 16/17 procedures were completed successfully. Positioning of the ports and bedside units reflected the surgeons’ preferred laparoscopic setup and enabled good surgical access and reach, as exemplified by the high procedure completion rate. Oviduct removal procedures performed in pigs were all completed successfully by a single surgeon. This preclinical study of a new robot-assisted surgical system for gynecologic procedures demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of the system in cadaver and porcine models. Further studies are required to assess its clinical utility.
A maximal-entropy initial state of the Universe as a microscopic description of inflation

description: We propose that the initial state of the Universe was an isotropic state of maximal entropy. Such a state can be described in terms of a state of closed, interacting, fundamental strings in their high-temperature Hagedorn phase. The entropy density in this state is equal to the square root of the energy density in Planck units, while the pressure is positive and equal to the energy density. These relations imply a maximally large entropy density and, therefore, a state that cannot be described by a semiclassical spacetime geometry. If one nevertheless insists on an effective semiclassical description of this state, she can do so by ignoring the entropy. This leads to a partially equivalent description in which the pressure appears to be negative and equal in magnitude to the energy density, as if the energy-momentum tensor was that of a cosmological constant. From this effective perspective, the state describes a period of string-scale inflation. The bound state of strings ultimately decays, possibly by a process akin to Hawking radiation, and undergoes a transition into a phase of hot radiation. But, from the effective perspective, the same decay corresponds to the heating of the Universe at the end of inflation. Small quantum mechanical fluctuations in the initial state lead to scale-invariant temperature anisotropies in the hot radiation. The temperature anisotropies are interpreted in the effective description as arising from quantum fluctuations of the curvature and an effective inflaton field. The stringy microscopic description determines the parameters of the model of inflation, as well as the cosmological observables, in terms of the string length scale and coupling strength. Our framework is similar, conceptually, to a recent description of black holes in terms of a maximal entropy state of strings in the Hagedorn phase.

Acute myeloid leukemia

description: Abstract: Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common acute leukemia in adults and has an unacceptably low cure rate. In recent years, a number of new treatment strategies and compounds were developed for the treatment of AML. There were several randomized controlled clinical trials with the objective to improve patients’ management and patients’ outcome in AML. Unfortunately, these trials are not always directly comparable since they do not measure the same outcomes, and currently there are no core outcome sets that can be used to guide outcome selection and harmonization in this disease area. The HARMONY (Healthcare Alliance for Resourceful Medicine Offensive against Neoplasms in Hematology) Alliance is a public-private European network established in 2017 and currently includes 53 partners and 32 associated members from 22 countries. Amongst many other goals of the HARMONY Alliance, Work Package 2 focuses on defining outcomes that are relevant to each hematological malignancy. Accordingly, this pilot study will be performed to define a core outcome set in AML. Methods: The pilot study will use a three-round Delphi survey and a final consensus meeting to define a core outcome set. Participants will be recruited from different stakeholder groups, including patients, clinicians, regulators and members of the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations. At the pre-Delphi stage, a literature research was conducted followed by several semi-structured interviews of clinical public and private key opinion leaders. Subsequently, the preliminary outcome list was discussed in several multi-stakeholder face-to-face meetings. The Delphi survey will reduce the preliminary outcome list to essential core outcomes. After completion of the last Delphi round, a final face-to-face meeting is planned to achieve consensus about the core outcome set in AML. Discussion: As part of the HARMONY Alliance, the pilot Delphi aims to define a core outcome set in AML on the basis of a multi-stakeholder consensus. Such a core outcome set will help to allow consistent comparison of future clinical trials and real-world evidence research and ensures that appropriate outcomes valued by a range of stakeholders are measured within future trials.
Relativistic PT-symmetric fermionic theories in 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions

description: Relativistic PT-symmetric fermionic interacting systems are studied in 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions. The objective is to include non-Hermitian PT-symmetric interaction terms that give {\it real} spectra. Such interacting systems could describe new physics. The simplest non-Hermitian Lagrangian density is $L=L_0+L_{int}=\barψ(i\not\partial-m)ψ-g\barψγ^5ψ$. The associated relativistic Dirac equation is PT invariant in 1+1 dimensions and the associated Hamiltonian commutes with PT. However, the dispersion relation $p^2=m^2-g^2$ shows that the PT symmetry is broken in the chiral limit $m\to0$. For interactions $L_{int}=-g(\barψγ^5ψ)^N$ with N=2,3, if the associated Dirac equation is PT invariant, the dispersion relation gives complex energies as $m\to0$. Other models are studied in which x-dependent PT-symmetric potentials such as $ix^3$, $-x^4$, $iκ/x$, Hulthén, or periodic potentials are coupled to $ψ$ and the classical trajectories plane are examined. Some combinations of these potentials give a real spectrum. In 3+1 dimensions, the simplest system $L=L_0+L_{int}=\barψ(i\not\partial-m)ψ-g\barψγ^5ψ$ resembles the 1+1-dimensional case but the Dirac equation is not PT invariant because $T^2=-1$. This explains the appearance of complex eigenvalues as $m\to0$. Other Lorentz-invariant 2-point and 4-point interactions give non-Hermitian PT-symmetric terms in the Dirac equation. Only the axial vector and tensor Lagrangian interactions $L_{int}=-i\barψ\tilde B_μγ^5γ^μψ$ and $L_{int}=-i\barψT_{μν}σ^{μν}ψ$ fulfil both requirements of PT invariance of the associated Dirac equation and non-Hermiticity. Both models give complex spectra as $m\to0$. The effect on the spectrum of the additional constraint of selfadjointness of the Hamiltonian with respect to the PT inner product is investigated.

description: Despite decades-old efforts to inform and educate consumers about healthier lifestyles through established dietary guidelines, diet-related diseases are on the rise. At the same time, consumers have developed more favorable attitudes towards nutritional supplements as a perceived alternative way to improve diet quality. Thus, there is a need to understand the role of nutritional supplements in U.S. consumers’ diets, given that supplements might serve as a possible policy tool to improve dietary behavior. We use data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to estimate the impact of nutritional supplements intake on respondent’s body weight outcomes, while controlling for diet quality based on individual Healthy Eating Index (HEI-2010) scores. Our analysis applies a set of innovative Propensity Score Matching (PSM) estimators that account for potential selection bias and endogeneity of the self-reported behavior and diet-health outcomes. The empirical analysis demonstrates a negative association between nutritional supplement intake and BMI. Our findings suggest that health-conscious individuals overinvest in health by taking nutritional supplements instead of improving diet quality through more appropriate food choices. Nutritional supplements have been discussed as a disease-preventative input that may enhance the 2 diets and health of at-risk populations. The analysis in this paper suggests that consuming supplements should not be thought of as a replacement for a healthy food-based diet. Our study provides an important contribution to the literature on a key food policy issue and contributes new insight with regard to the relationship between dietary choices and health behavior

description: Forced migration has recently reached an all-time record. With the flows of forced migrants across Europe, and the states’ responses to the forcible movement of people focusing on ‘migration management’ on one hand while pushing for the agendas of resilience building on the other, it is vitally important to question the effectiveness of resilience strategies for those experiencing forced migration first-hand in the developed countries. This thesis provides a critical understanding of social resilience, as a process rather than an outcome, in the context of forced migrant families in the UK. In developing a framework based upon family migration this research advances contemporary discussions of forced migration and resilience in geography, as it investigates the experiences of participants in their social environment and employs both actor-oriented and constructivist social resilience approaches in doing so. To achieve this aim, the thesis draws on empirical research conducted in Plymouth, UK, a city in the South West of England with relatively little ethnic diversity yet operates as a dispersal centre for asylum seekers. The methods combined focus-groups with forced migration third sector, in-depth interviews with forced-migrant families from Arab countries, and participant observation in the case study. The findings highlight family changes during the process of forced migration and the subjective ways in which building resilience is managed and articulated in and through forced migrant families experiencing periods of acute stress and anxiety. They show the complex ways by which family practices and homemaking, knowledge, culture, and spirituality are associated with building and developing social resilience in families. The analysis stresses the importance of formal and informal connections in managing existing and new forms of bonding, and bridging capitals through the transitional process of resettlement. It emphasises the significance of power and agency in shaping the process of building resilience and managing its varied determinants, and in doing so it emphasises the importance of recognising family resilience as a non-linear and subjective process. The study introduces a visualised framework reflects its understanding of building social resilience as a complex, an ongoing in-the-making process. This study contributes to knowledge by enhancing understandings of the varied practices and performances of family, and of home as a temporal, multi-scalar, and multi-sited set of socio-spatial processes. It signifies the flaws in the perception of family that is held by immigration policies. Understanding family social resilience as a subjective process also adds to academic debates that challenge viewing social resilience as linear with a positive, upward trajectory.

description: Recently quantum tomography has been proposed as a fundamental tool for prototyping a few qubit quantum device. It allows the complete reconstruction of the state produced from a given input into the device. From this reconstructed density matrix, relevant quantum information quantities such as the degree of entanglement and entropy can be calculated. Generally orthogonal measurements have been discussed for this tomographic reconstruction. In this paper, we extend the tomographic reconstruction technique to two new regimes. First we show how non-orthogonal measurement allow the reconstruction of the state of the system provided the measurements span the Hilbert space. We then detail how quantum state tomography can be performed for multi qudits with a specific example illustrating how to achieve this in one and two qutrit systems.

description: The implementation of circuit quantum electrodynamics allows coupling distant qubits by microwave photons hosted in on-chip superconducting resonators. Typically, the qubit-photon interaction is realized by coupling the photons to the electric dipole moment of the qubit. A recent proposal suggests storing the quantum information in the electric quadrupole moment of an electron in a triple quantum dot. The qubit is expected to have improved coherence since it is insensitive to dipolar noise produced by distant voltage fluctuators. Here we experimentally realize a quadrupole qubit in a linear array of three quantum dots in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. A high impedance microwave resonator coupled to the middle dot interacts with the qubit quadrupole moment. We demonstrate strong quadrupole qubit--photon coupling and observe improved coherence properties when operating the qubit in the parameter space where the dipole coupling vanishes.

description: It is known that a coherently oscillating axion field is a candidate of the dark matter. In the presence of the oscillating axion, the photon can be resonantly produced through the parametric amplification. In the universe, there also exist cosmological magnetic fields which are coherent electromagnetic fields. In the presence of magnetic fields, an axion can be converted into a photon, and vice versa. Thus, it is interesting to investigate what happens for the axion-photon system in the presence of both the axion dark matter and the magnetic fields. This system can be regarded as a coupled system of the axion and the photon whose equations contain the Mathieu type terms. We find that the instability condition is changed in the presence of magnetic fields in contrast to the conventional Mathieu equation. The positions of bifurcation points between stable and unstable are shifted and new instability bands appear. This is because the resonantly amplified axion can be converted to photon, and vice versa.

description: The main challenge in the Standard Model calculation of the mass and width difference in $D^0 - \bar D^0$ mixing is to estimate the size of SU(3) breaking. We prove that mixing occurs in the Standard Model only at second order in SU(3) violation. We calculate SU(3) breaking due to phase space effects, and find that it can naturally give rise to a width difference $ΔΓ/ 2Γ\sim 1%$, potentially reducing the sensitivity of D mixing to new physics.

description: We calculate the $B\toπ,ρ$ transition form factors in the framework of perturbative QCD to leading power of $1/M_B$, $M_B$ being the $B$ meson mass. We explain the basic principle by discussing the pion electromagnetic form factor. It is shown that the logarithmic and linear singularities occurring at small momentum fractions of light meson distribution amplitudes do not exist in a self-consistent perturbative analysis, which includes $k_\perp$ and threshold resummations.

description: We present a spatially-resolved analysis of ionized and molecular gas in a nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5728, using the VLT/MUSE and ALMA data. We find ionized gas outflows out to ~kpc scales, which encounter the star formation ring at 1 kpc radius. The star formation rate of the encountering region is significantly high (~1.8 M$_{\rm sol}/yr/kpc^2$) compared to other regions in the ring. In contrast, the CO (2-1) emission is significantly weaker by a factor of ~3.5, indicating very high star formation efficiency. These results support the positive feedback scenario that the AGN-driven outflows compress the ISM in the ring, enhancing the star formation activity. In addition, we detect outflow regions outside of spiral arms, in which gas is likely to be removed from the spiral arms and no clear sign of star formation is detected. The overall impact of AGN outflows on the global star formation in NGC 5728 is limited, suggesting the feedback of the low-luminosity AGN is insignificant.

description: We present molecular dynamics simulations of a binary Lennard-Jones mixture at temperatures below the kinetic glass transition. The ``mobility'' of a particle is characterized by the amplitude of its fluctuation around its average position. The 5% particles with the largest/smallest mean amplitude are thus defined as the relatively most mobile/immobile particles. We investigate for these 5% particles their spatial distribution and find them to be distributed very heterogeneously in that mobile as well as immobile particles form clusters. The reason for this dynamic heterogeneity is traced back to the fact that mobile/immobile particles are surrounded by fewer/more neighbors which form an effectively wider/narrower cage. The dependence of our results on the length of the simulation run indicates that individual particles have a characteristic mobility time scale, which can be approximated via the non-Gaussian parameter.

description: Abstract: Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a pre-requisite for cervical cancer, which represents the third most common cancer among women worldwide. A causal relationship also exists between HPV and cancer in other areas of the female reproductive system including the vagina and vulva. Whilst the incidence of vaginal cancer in the UK has remained relatively stable over the past 25 years, vulval cancer rates are increasing. A body of literature exists on the epidemiology and aetiology of vaginal and vulval cancer, but little is known about the economic burden. The objective of this study was to quantify the costs of treating these cancers on the National Health Service (NHS) in England. Methods: Inpatient and outpatient episodes were derived from Hospital Episode Statistics (HES). Health Resource Group (HRG) tariffs and National Reference Costs were used to estimate the cost of treating pre-cancerous and invasive vaginal and vulval lesions in England. Results: The study showed that for the 5 years from 2009/2010 to 2014/2015 the total cost associated with pre-cancerous and invasive vaginal and vulval lesions was over £14 million per year on average (95% of which was attributed to inpatient costs). Vulval cancer accounted for the largest proportion; an estimated 60% of the total cost (£8.82 million). On average 4316 patients per year in England were admitted to hospital and 912 patients attended outpatient settings for pre-cancerous and invasive disease of the vagina and vulva. Conclusion: The results indicate that vaginal and vulval cancer cost the English health care system over £14 million per year. Given the causal role of HPV in a proportion of these cancers, preventative measures such as the national HPV immunisation programme have the potential to reduce the economic burden. To ensure optimal use of NHS resources, it is important that future economic evaluations of such preventative measures consider the full burden of HPV related disease.

description: We give a Shor-Preskill type security-proof to the quantum key distribution without public announcement of bases [W.Y. Hwang et al., Phys. Lett. A 244, 489 (1998)]. First, we modify the Lo-Chau protocol once more so that it finally reduces to the quantum key distribution without public announcement of bases. Then we show how we can estimate the error rate in the code bits based on that in the checked bits in the proposed protocol, that is the central point of the proof. We discuss the problem of imperfect sources and that of large deviation in the error rate distributions. We discuss when the bases sequence must be discarded.

description: Many-body systems undergoing quantum phase transitions reveal substantial growth of non-classical correlations between different parties of the system. This behavior is manifested by characteristic divergences of the von Neumann entropy. Here we show, that very similar features may be observed in one-dimensional systems of a few strongly interacting atoms when the structural transitions between different spatial orderings are driven by a varying shape of an external potential. When the appropriate adaptation of the finite-size scaling approach is performed in the vicinity of the transition point, few-fermion systems display a characteristic power-law invariance of divergent quantities.
