Smoking and smoking cessation interventions in the context of targeted lung cancer screening in the UK
Creators: name: Williams, Parris
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2024

description: Lung cancer screening (LCS) at risk people is a recently established intervention to reduce lung cancer mortality. However, an estimated 30-50% of attendees are likely to be current smokers, highlighting an opportunity to embed smoking cessation interventions. This thesis aims to identify effective strategies for delivering smoking cessation support within LCS. I present five results chapters addressing the current research gaps within these areas. First, I conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. This revealed moderate certainty of evidence supporting smoking cessation interventions embedded within LCS [Odds Ratio (OR): 2.11, 95% CI 1.53-2.90, p<0.001] and high certainty of evidence supporting more intensive interventions delivered within LCS [OR: 2.40, 95% CI 1.64-3.51, p< 0.001]. Secondly, I conducted a randomised controlled trial and discovered significantly higher three-month quit rates among participants who were randomised to receive telephone smoking cessation intervention (TSI) after attending an LCS compared to usual care (UC) intervention, [TSI: 21.1% vs UC: 8.9%, OR: 2.83, 95% CI 1.44-5.60]. Thirdly, I analysed long-term results from the two Quit Smoking Lung Health Intervention trials. I discovered significantly higher 12-month self-reported, and carbon monoxide (CO) verified quit rates among participants who were randomised to receive smoking cessation support (SCS) interventions compared to usual care [Self report: SCS: 20.0% vs UC: 12.8%, OR: 1.78, 95% CI 1.04-3.04], [CO verified: SCS: 12.0% vs UC: 4.7%, OR: 2.97, 95% CI 1.43-6.73]. In the fourth and fifth chapters, I present qualitative investigations into the participant experience of the intervention and barriers to accepting it. Patients reported they experienced supportive interventions, and how the LCS and past experiences influenced quit rates, as well as reporting several psychosocial barriers to accepting support. These studies justify and highlight the importance of ensuring lung cancer screening services are delivering evidence-based smoking cessation support within their screening programmes.

description: Coral reefs are at risk due to various global and local anthropogenic stressors that impact the health of reef ecosystems worldwide. The most recent climate models predict that climate change will increase the frequency and intensity of tropical storms. This increased storm occurrence and strength will likely compromise coral reef structures and habitats for reef-dwelling organisms, including across the Florida Keys Reef Tract (FKRT), the most extensive tropical reef system along the US coast. While several recent studies reveal the chronic impacts of tropical storms on corals, relatively little is known about the effects of major storm events on coral growth and how these effects vary over spatiotemporal scales. Here, I characterize the skeletal growth of two common Caribbean reef-building coral species, Siderastrea siderea and Pseudodiploria strigosa, before and after Hurricane Irma, to investigate the storm’s impact on coral skeletal growth on inner and outer reefs of the FKRT. Coral cores were extracted from both species at four inner and four outer reef sites in May 2015, before Hurricane Irma struck the Florida Keys in September 2017. Subsequently, 33 micro-cores were collected in May 2019, two years after the storm traversed our previously cored coral colonies. A three-way ANOVA model with storm, species, and reef location as the three factors was used to assess the impact of the storm on each of three growth parameters: skeletal density, linear extension, and calcification rates. Results reveal no difference in the coral annual skeletal growth parameters pre- and post-Hurricane Irma, although previously quantified differences in these growth parameters across species and location were observed.  However, analysis of the ‘yearly’ change in annual skeletal growth parameters showed significant differences in skeletal density across groups before and after Hurricane Irma, but not for linear extension and calcification rates. Our findings improve understanding of the  impacts of tropical storms on coral skeletal growth and offer new insights into how we can employ corals’ innate growth capacities to help conserve coral reefs under climate change.

description: Efficiently and precisely identifying drug targets is crucial for developing and discovering potential medications. While conventional experimental approaches can accurately pinpoint these targets, they suffer from time constraints and are not easily adaptable to high-throughput processes. On the other hand, computational approaches, particularly those utilizing machine learning (ML), offer an efficient means to accelerate the prediction of druggable proteins based solely on their primary sequences. Recently, several state-of-the-art computational methods have been developed for predicting and analyzing druggable proteins. These computational methods showed high diversity in terms of benchmark datasets, feature extraction schemes, ML algorithms, evaluation strategies and webserver/software usability. Thus, our objective is to reexamine these computational approaches and conduct a comprehensive assessment of their strengths and weaknesses across multiple aspects. In this study, we deliver the first comprehensive survey regarding the state-of-the-art computational approaches for in silico prediction of druggable proteins. First, we provided information regarding the existing benchmark datasets and the types of ML methods employed. Second, we investigated the effectiveness of these computational methods in druggable protein identification for each benchmark dataset. Third, we summarized the important features used in this field and the existing webserver/software. Finally, we addressed the present constraints of the existing methods and offer valuable guidance to the scientific community in designing and developing novel prediction models. We anticipate that this comprehensive review will provide crucial information for the development of more accurate and efficient druggable protein predictors.

description: The idea that a group of cooperating agents can solve problems more efficiently than when those agents work independently is hardly controversial, despite our obliviousness of the conditions that make cooperation a successful problem solving strategy. Here we investigate the performance of a group of agents in locating the global maxima of NK fitness landscapes with varying degrees of ruggedness. Cooperation is taken into account through imitative learning and the broadcasting of messages informing on the fitness of each agent. We find a trade-off between the group size and the frequency of imitation: for rugged landscapes, too much imitation or too large a group yield a performance poorer than that of independent agents. By decreasing the diversity of the group, imitative learning may lead to duplication of work and hence to a decrease of its effective size. However, when the parameters are set to optimal values the cooperative group substantially outperforms the independent agents.
A FALSE PROMISE? EVALUATING INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS AS A TOOL FOR SOCIOECONOMIC UPLIFT
Creators: name: Fisher, Araad

Year: 2022

description: The organizational union of competitive, commercialized athletics within American universities has been a topic of debate. While some call for the thorough integration of athletics into the academy, others disapprove. One could analyze this dynamic from the perspective that some obscurity exists around the purpose of college sports. Among the most adopted notions is that college athletics provide opportunities that bolster the “lifelong success of college athletes” (NCAA, 2015). Although socioeconomic status (SES) is a widespread measure for evaluating quality of life, literature exploring its relationships with college sports is limited. This study contributes to filling this literature gap by analyzing the relationship between athletic participation and generational SES changes among former NCAA Division I student-athletes and nonathletes. This research is significant for evaluating the impact of participation in college sports and answering a much-needed call for updated literature on this topic. The results do not definitively indicate that intercollegiate sports participation is a sufficient form of capital that may be used for SES mobility. This is especially true for racial minorities as their nonathlete counterparts experience higher rates of SES mobility and hold higher current SES standings despite coming from slightly lower SES backgrounds. Meanwhile, White athletes hold higher current SES standings despite experiencing lower rates of mobility than racial minorities. Disparities also exist across gender as female athletes came from higher SES backgrounds yet experienced less mobility and hold lower current standings compared to their male peers. The results of this study have significant implications in understanding the role of athletics within universities.

description: The North Wyke Farm Platform (NWFP) was established in 2010 to study and improve grassland livestock production at the farm-scale. The NWFP uses a combination of environmental sensors, routine field and lab-based measurements, and detailed management records to monitor livestock and crop production, emissions to water, emissions to air, soil health, and biodiversity. The rich NWFP datasets help researchers to evaluate the effectiveness of different grassland (and arable) farming systems, which in turn, contributes to the development of sustainable, resilient and net zero land management strategies. This document serves as a user guide to the sub-catchment high-resolution (within-field) and low-resolution (field-level) surveys collected on the NWFP. Most surveys are site-wide across all the NWFP fields, while some are specific to a given triplet or small group of NWFP catchments. Low resolution surveys are site wide and are carried out quarterly and routinely as a management tool. This document is associated with other dedicated user guides that detail the design, establishment and development of the NWFP, field events, and the quality control process of datasets.

“Performance Under Pressure: An Analysis of Field Goal Attempts in Pressure Situations”
Creators: name: Atkins, Grayson Ryan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Collegiate placekickers, especially kickers at FBS Power 5 institutions, across the country experience high levels of pressure when they are called upon to make a field goal attempt that could help their team win the game. This field goal within the presence of pressure can lead to an attempt resulting in an enormous celebration or a disastrous defeat due to a multitude of different factors, like the distance of the attempt, the amount of wind, if the opposing coach calls a timeout before the attempt to ice the kicker, etc. In this study, pressure kicks are defined as an attempt within the last five minutes of the fourth quarter or any kick in overtime to either make the game a one possession game if the team is losing by 9 to 11, if the team is down by less than three points, if the teams are tied or if the kicking team is leading by 6 to 8 to force the game into a two score game for the opposing team. Previous literature has determined that the largest predicting variable in the outcome of the attempt is the distance. Data was recording using the ESPN database and the WeatherStem database. 1,286 total kicks were observed from the 2019-2020 FBS Power 5 football season, with 98 of those attempts being “pressure” kicks. The distance and the amount of wind present were found to be the strongest predicting factors, while pressure was not a statistically significant variable. Based on the 98 observed pressure field goals, this model correctly predicted approximately 90% of the made field goal attempts in a pressure situation.

description: We consider an atom inside a ring cavity, where a plane-wave cavity field together with an external coherent laser beam induces a two-photon Raman transition between two hyperfine ground states of the atom. This cavity-assisted Raman transition induces effective coupling between atom's internal degrees of freedom and its center-of-mass motion. In~the meantime, atomic dynamics exerts a back-action to cavity photons. We investigate the properties of this system by adopting a mean-field and a full quantum approach, and show that the interplay between the atomic dynamics and the cavity field gives rise to intriguing nonlinear phenomena.

Magnetic field effects on free surfactant-stabilised liquid films

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2024

description: Adding nanomaterials to soap films provides opportunities to control the dynamics and stability of soap films using external stimuli, which could possibly lead to the development of new technologies, such as the use of soap bubbles as stimuli-responsive carriers. This work investigates the effects of electric/magnetic fields on soap films containing electrically/magnetically-responsive nanomaterial and also aims to provide solutions to general challenges in soap film research. First, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are investigated for electric field control of soap films using molecular dynamics and experiments. The molecular dynamics trajectories highlight that the polarity of surrounding liquid molecules affects the orientation of CNTs in electric fields, and the experiments indicate that low-strength electric fields are insufficient to influence soap films containing CNTs. An experimental investigation of soap films containing magnetite nanoparticles is then conducted. The interference colours arising from white-light illumination reveal that an inhomogeneous magnetic field affects the drainage dynamics of these magnetic soap films, resulting in either a stabilising or destabilising effect, depending on the composition of the film. Next, an interference relation for soap films that accounts for coherence effects is derived and applied to analyse the method widely-used to calculate soap film interference colours. Three methods are then developed for the open problem of mapping interference colours to film thickness. The proposed flood-fill-type algorithm leads to the most accurate thickness mapping and is expected to outperform recently proposed methods in the literature. Finally, a thin film model for magnetic soap films is derived. With a capillary suction boundary condition, this model is able to predict effects in qualitative agreement with marginal regeneration, which is a first for thin film modelling. Ultimately, this work facilitates effective methods for investigating soap films and is a key step towards precisely controlling the behaviour of soap films.

description: Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at the $L$-edge of transition metal elements is now commonly used to probe single magnon excitations. Here we show that single magnon excitations can also be measured with RIXS at the $K$-edge of the surrounding ligand atoms when the center heavy metal elements have strong spin-orbit coupling. This is demonstrated with oxygen $K$-edge RIXS experiments on the perovskite Sr$_2$IrO$_4$, where low energy peaks from single magnon excitations were observed. This new application of RIXS has excellent potential to be applied to a wide range of magnetic systems based on heavy elements, for which the $L$-edge RIXS energy resolutions in the hard X-ray region is usually poor.

description: Coupling individual quantum systems lies at the heart of building scalable quantum networks. Here, we report the first direct photonic coupling between a semiconductor quantum dot and a trapped ion and we demonstrate that single photons generated by a quantum dot controllably change the internal state of an $\textrm{Yb}^+$ ion. We ameliorate the effect of the sixty-fold mismatch of the radiative linewidths with coherent photon generation and a high-finesse fiber-based optical cavity enhancing the coupling between the single photon and the ion. The transfer of information presented here via the classical correlations between the $σ_z$-projection of the quantum-dot spin and the internal state of the ion provides a promising step towards quantum state-transfer in a hybrid photonic network.

description: Many-body localization in an $XY$ model with a long-range interaction is investigated. We show that in the regime of a high strength of disordering compared to the interaction an off-resonant flip-flop spin-spin interaction (hopping) generates the effective Ising interactions of spins in the third order of perturbation theory in a hopping. The combination of hopping and induced Ising interactions for the power law distance dependent hopping $V(R) \propto R^{-α}$ always leads to the localization breakdown in a thermodynamic limit of an infinite system at $α< 3d/2$ where $d$ is a system dimension. The delocalization takes place due to the induced Ising interactions $U(R) \propto R^{-2α}$ of "extended" resonant pairs. This prediction is consistent with the numerical finite size scaling in one-dimensional systems. Many-body localization in $XY$ model is more stable with respect to the long-range interaction compared to a many-body problem with similar Ising and Heisenberg interactions requiring $α\geq 2d$ which makes the practical implementations of this model more attractive for quantum information applications. The full summary of dimension constraints and localization threshold size dependencies for many-body localization in the case of combined Ising and hopping interactions is obtained using this and previous work and it is the subject for the future experimental verification using cold atomic systems.

description: The present work deals with a set of problems in isotope shifts of neutral barium spectral lines. Some well known transitions ($6s^2~^1S_0-6s6p~^{1,3}P^o_1$ and $6s^2~^1S_0-6p^2~^3P_0$) are first investigated. Values of the changes in the nuclear mean-square charge radius are deduced from the available experimental isotope shifts using our ab initio electronic factors. The three sets $\{ δ\langle r^2\rangle^{A,A'}\} $ obtained from these lines are consistent with each other. The combination of the available nuclear mean-square radii with our electronic factors for the $6s5d~^3D_{1,2} -6s6p~^{1}P^o_1$ transitions produces isotope shift values in conflict with the laser spectroscopy measurements of Dammalapati et al. (Eur. Phys. J. D 53, 1 (2009)).

description: We demonstrate sympathetic sideband cooling of a $^{40}$CaH$^{+}$ molecular ion co-trapped with a $^{40}$Ca$^{+}$ atomic ion in a linear Paul trap. Both axial modes of the two-ion chain are simultaneously cooled to near the ground state of motion. The center of mass mode is cooled to an average quanta of harmonic motion $\overline{n}_{\mathrm{COM}} = 0.13 \pm 0.03$, corresponding to a temperature of $12.47 \pm 0.03 ~μ$K. The breathing mode is cooled to $\overline{n}_{\mathrm{BM}} = 0.05 \pm 0.02$, corresponding to a temperature of $15.36 \pm 0.01~μ$K.

Flow in the pulmonary collateral circulation: novel measurements and clinical applications in cardiopulmonary disease
Creators: name: Rawal, Bhavin
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: The pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood at low pressure, supplying 99% of blood flow to the lungs. In health, the bronchial arteries account for less than 1% of cardiac output, carrying oxygenated blood at a pressure six times that of the pulmonary arteries. In various respiratory conditions, pulmonary vascular remodelling occurs, and the contribution of bronchial arteries and other systemic vessels increases significantly. This circulation, often overlooked in the literature, becomes apparent in several clinical conditions as vessel hypertrophy and proliferation, observable on cross-sectional imaging. This recruitment process redirects more systemic blood flow to the lungs, increasing the shunt fraction (Qp/Qs ratio), which compares pulmonary arterial blood flow (Qp) to systemic (bronchial) vessel blood flow (Qs). Studies suggest that the neurohumoral regulation of bronchial arteries is similar to other systemic vascular territories. In diseases causing systemic hypoxemia, alveolar hypoxia, pulmonary infarction, and chronic inflammation, bronchial artery hypertrophy and dilation deliver more oxygenated blood to ischemic lung tissue. Though studied in animal models and through invasive procedures, recent advancements in imaging technology have introduced non-invasive methods to assess this collateral circulation in humans. Pulmonary vascular remodelling can cause various clinical manifestations, including haemoptysis. Most patients with haemoptysis and hypertrophied bronchial arteries at Royal Brompton Hospital have chronic bronchopulmonary inflammation secondary to cystic fibrosis (CF). Research on quantitative imaging measures in pulmonary vascular disease due to chronic respiratory conditions is limited. Systematic assessment of the shunt fraction in CF patients with bronchial hypertrophy has not been conducted. MRI techniques have determined the Qp/Qs ratio in congenital heart disease patients, where differences in pulmonary and systemic circulation can be significant. In chronic respiratory conditions, this difference is likely small. This thesis evaluates MRI's precision and accuracy in calculating the shunt fraction, anticipating small shunts, marking the first systematic evaluation in respiratory patients.

description: Pulsars apparently missing from the galactic center could have been destroyed by asymmetric fermionic dark matter ($m_X = 1-100$ GeV) coupled to a light scalar ($m_ϕ= 5-20$ MeV), which mixes with the Higgs boson. We point out that this pulsar-collapsing dark sector can resolve the core-cusp problem and will either be excluded or discovered by upcoming direct detection experiments. Another implication is a maximum pulsar age curve that increases with distance from the galactic center, with a normalization that depends on the couplings and masses of dark sector particles. In addition, we use old pulsars outside the galactic center to place bounds on asymmetric Higgs portal models.
