description: Contexte : Le diagnostic biologique du paludisme est un volet essentiel de la prise en charge du paludisme. La technique de référence du diagnostic est la goutte épaisse associée au calcul de la densité parasitaire (DP). La DP est déterminée sur la base du nombre de parasites comptés dans un champ microscopique par rapport à un nombre donné de leucocytes. Or le nombre de globules blancs chez un patient varie en fonction de l’état physiologique et du contexte clinique. Notre étude avait pour objectif de déterminer l’impact de la numération leucocytaire sur le calcul de la densité parasitaire dans les cas de paludisme simple. Méthode : L’étude était transversale à visée analytique et s’était déroulée dans 2 hôpitaux du Bénin. Elle a porté sur une population de 476 enfants âgés de 6 à 59 mois. La goutte épaisse et l’hémogramme ont été systématiquement réalisés chez tous les enfants inclus. La densité parasitaire a été calculé selon 3 méthodes en utilisant d’abord un nombre pondéré de 6000/mm3 de leucocyte recommandé par le programme National de Lutte contre le Paludisme (PNLP) du Bénin, puis un nombre de leucocytes à 8000/mm3 recommandé par l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé et enfin le nombre de leucocytes réels du patient obtenu sur l’hémogramme. Résultats : A l’issue de notre étude, 313 enfants soit 65,76 % de notre population d’étude avait une GE positive. Le nombre de leucocytes chez ces derniers était en moyenne de 11580/mm3. En utilisant successivement le nombre moyen de 6000 leucocytes/mm3 proposé par le PNLP Bénin et celui de 8000 leucocytes/mm3 proposé par l’OMS, la moyenne des densités parasitaires était respectivement de 47943 et de 63936 trophozoïtes/µL contre 92290 trophozoïtes/µL lorsque le nombre réel de leucocytes des patients était utilisé pour le calcul de la DP. En utilisant une moyenne de 6000 leucocytes/mm3 pour le calcul de la DP, 60% des DP calculées avaient été sous-estimées et 6% étaient surestimées. L’utilisation de la moyenne de 8000 leucocytes/mm3 avait entrainé une sous-estimation de la DP dans 49% des cas et sa surestimation dans 15 % de cas. La différence entre les trois méthodes de calcul a été considérée comme statistiquement significative (p value <0.05). Conclusion : L’utilisation des coefficients 6000 ou 8000 pour l’estimation de la parasitémie pourrait entrainer une sous-estimation significative de la charge parasitaire.

description: A well known result of Iwaniec and Sarnak states that for at least one third of the primitive Dirichlet characters to a large modulus q, the associated L-functions do not vanish at the central point. When q is a large power of a fixed prime, we prove the same proportion already among the primitive characters of any given order. The set of primitive characters modulo q of a given order can be described as an orbit under the action of the Galois group of the corresponding cyclotomic field. We also prove a positive proportion of nonvanishing within substantially shorter orbits generated by intermediate Galois groups as soon as they are larger than roughly the square-root of the prime-power conductor.

description: Using Langevin Dynamic simulations, we study effects of the shear force on the rupture of a double stranded DNA molecule. The model studied here contains two single diblock copolymers interacting with each other. The elastic constants of individual segments of the diblock copolymer are considered to be different. We showed that the magnitude of the rupture force depends on whether the force is applied at $3'-3'-$ends or $5'-5'-$ends. Distributions of extension in hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds along the chain show the striking differences. Motivated by recent experiments, we have also calculated the variation of rupture force for different chain lengths. Results obtained from simulations have been validated with the analytical calculation based on the ladder model of DNA.

description: While dealing in [1] with the supersymmetry of a tridiagonal Hamiltonian H, we have proved that its partner Hamiltonian H(+) also have a tridiagonal matrix representation in the same basis and that the polynomials associated with the eigenstates expansion of H(+) are precisely the kernel polynomials of those associated with H. This formalism is here applied to the case of the Morse oscillator which may have a finite discrete energy spectrum in addition to a continuous one. This completes the treatment of tridiagonal Hamiltonians with pure continuous energy spectrum, a pure discrete one, or a spectrum of mixed discrete and continous parts.

description: We propose a superconducting circuit comprising a dc-SQUID with mechanically compliant arm embedded in a coplanar microwave cavity that realizes an optomechanical system with a degenerate or non-degenerate parametric interaction generated via the dynamical Casimir effect. For experimentally feasible parameters, this setup is capable of reaching the single-photon, ultra-strong coupling regime, while simultaneously possessing a parametric coupling strength approaching the renormalized cavity frequency. This opens up the possibility of observing the interplay between these two fundamental nonlinearities at the single-photon level.

description: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with encapsulated nanoparticles (NPs) enjoy a vastly expanded application potential in catalysis, filtration, and sensing. The selection of particular modified core-NPs has yielded partial successes in overcoming lattice mismatch. However, restrictions on the choice of NPs not only limit the diversity, but also affect the properties of the hybrid materials. Here, we show a versatile synthesis strategy using a representative set of seven MOF-shells and six NP-cores that are fine-tuned to incorporate from single to hundreds of cores in mono-, bi-, tri- and quaternary composites. This method does not require the presence of any specific surface structures or functionalities on the pre-formed cores. Our key point is to regulate the diffusion rate of alkaline vapors that deprotonate organic linkers and trigger the controlled MOF-growth and encapsulation of NPs. This strategy is expected to pave the way for the exploration of more sophisticated MOF-nanohybrids.

description: We show that discrete quasiprobability distributions defined via the discrete Heisenberg-Weyl group can be obtained as discretizations of the continuous $SU(N)$ quasiprobability distributions. This is done by identifying the phase-point operators with the continuous quantisation kernels evaluated at special points of the phase space. As an application we discuss the positive-P function and show that its discretization can be used to treat the problem of diverging trajectories. We study the dissipative long-range transverse-field Ising chain and show that the long-time dynamics of local observables is well described by a semiclassical approximation of the interactions.

description: Light harvesting by photosystem II (PSII) in plants is highly efficient and acclimates to rapid changes in the intensity of sunlight. However, the mechanisms of PSII light harvesting have remained experimentally inaccessible. Using a structure-based model of excitation energy flow in 200 nanometer (nm) x 200 nm patches of the grana membrane, where PSII is located, we accurately simulated chlorophyll fluorescence decay data with no free parameters. Excitation movement through the light harvesting antenna is diffusive, but becomes subdiffusive in the presence of charge separation at reaction centers. The influence of membrane morphology on light harvesting efficiency is determined by the excitation diffusion length of 50 nm in the antenna. Our model provides the basis for understanding how nonphotochemical quenching mechanisms affect PSII light harvesting in grana membranes.

description: VVS is a complex disorder affecting upward of 10% of reproductive age women and it is the most common diagnosis among women with persistent complaints of entry dyspareunia. Nevertheless, the etiology and optimal treatment for VVS remains unknown. A range of therapeutics is utilized for treatment of this condition with variable response rate. Surgical removal of vestibular mucosa is the most common treatment for tractable cases with a reported response rate as high as 80%. However, it is often difficult to compare effectiveness of studies for surgical treatment of VVS (i.e., postvestibulectomy) due to short duration of follow up and subjective measures of pain and quality of life. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate long term pain report, sexual function, and psychological distress among women who had undergone vestibulectomy for the treatment of refractory VVS at our tertiary pelvic pain clinic at the U. of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

description: We continue our study of Horava-Lifshitz type theories using the methods of the spectral geometry. In this work we construct the infrared action of gravity and matter coupled to gravity in the most general way respecting the foliation preserving diffeomorphisms. This is done with the help of the spectral action principle based on some generalized Dirac operator. The gravity part reproduces the infrared limit of the Horava-Lifshitz gravity, while the matter part gives the generalization of the earlier suggested models. Due to the fact that the same Dirac operator is used in the construction of both sectors, the parameters of the gravity and matter parts are related. We expect that this potentially could naturally exclude fine tunings needed to get some desired properties as well as open new possibilities for the experimental tests of the model.

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Curriculum and pedagogy not elsewhere classified

description: The pandemic disrupted and challenged higher education institutions across the United States to find an effective and feasible solution to deliver instruction without impacting students’ social interaction and performance. HyFlex model, which blends the best of the two modes of instruction namely, face-to-face, and online instruction, emerged as an effective solution during the pandemic and proved that it has the potential to stay relevant even in the post-pandemic world. The purpose of this study was to examine if the attendance patterns of students during group work in a HyFlex classroom affect their group performance. Evidence from literature studies on HyFlex has focused their investigation on understanding how attendance patterns affect students’ individual performance while there are limited studies that have looked into group performance. The guiding theory behind this study is social constructivism. The research question investigated the relationship between the extent to which teammates were remote and the group’s assignment grades. This study used a sample of 645 students enrolled in first-year undergraduate course which involved working on two significant group projects at a Midwestern university during Fall of 2021. There were 168 and 146 project groups across 18 sections of the course. Data were analyzed using the non-experimental Pearson correlational design method, where the two continuous variables included group remoteness (number of times students participated remotely in a group) and group performance (points received in group assignments for each project). The results of the study indicated a slightly negative correlation that was not statistically significant between group remoteness and group grade for Project 2 (r = -.068, p= .38) and Project 3 (r= -.095, p= 0.25). Even though the results were non-significant the negative correlation hints that the remote participation might affect the group grades. Based on the weak correlation between student participation and group grades, we can recommend that the Hyflex model can be adopted in the future for courses that involve working in groups even in the post-pandemic period.

description: Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is by far the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia, causing a 5-fold increase in stroke risk, a 3-fold increase in heart failure, and significant fatalities. The Wenxin Keli (WXKL), is a Chinese herbal extract, that is effective in atrial-selective peak INa reduction, making it useful in the treatment of atrial arrhythmias such as AF. This study aimed to outline and sum up current evidence from systematic reviews (SRs)/meta-analyses (MAs) that investigate the clinical efficacy of WXKL on AF. Methods: GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation), PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) checklist, and AMSTAR-2 (Assessing the Methodological Quality of Systematic Reviews-2) were examined for SRs/MAs of WXKL on AF. These databanks were utilized to evaluate the quality of evidence, reporting quality, and methodology quality from inception to December 2021.

description: The Peccei-Quinn mechanism suffers from the problem of the isocurvature perturbations. The isocurvature perturbations are suppressed if the Peccei-Quinn breaking scale is large during inflation. The oscillation of the Peccei-Quinn breaking field after inflation, however, leads to the formation of domain walls due to the parametric resonance effect. In this paper, we discuss the evolution of the Peccei-Quinn breaking field after inflation in detail, and propose a model where the parametric resonance is ineffective and hence domain walls are not formed. We also discuss consistency of our model with supersymmetric theory.

Thermoelectric generators as self-oscillating heat engines

description: In the previous paper of Alicki et.al. a model of a solar cell has been proposed in which the non-periodic source of energy - photon flux - drives the collective periodic motion of electrons in a form of plasma oscillations. Subsequently, plasma oscillations are rectified by the p-n junction diode into the direct current (work). This approach makes a solar cell similar to standard macroscopic heat motors or turbines which always contain two heat baths, the working medium and the periodically moving piston or rotor. Here, a very similar model is proposed in order to describe the operation principles of thermoelectric generators based either on bimetallic or semiconductor p-n junctions. Again plasma oscillation corresponds to a piston and sunlight is replaced by a hot bath. The mathematical formalism is based on the Markovian master equations which can be derived in a rigorous way from the underlying Hamiltonian models and are consistent with the laws of thermodynamics.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) crystalline colloidal monolayers sliding over a laser-induced optical lattice recently emerged as a new tool for the study of friction between ideal crystal surfaces. Here we focus in particular on static friction, the minimal sliding force necessary to depin one lattice from the other. If the colloid and the optical lattices are mutually commensurate, the colloid sliding is always pinned by static friction; but when they are incommensurate the presence or absence of pinning can be expected to depend upon the system parameters. If a 2D analogy to the mathematically established Aubry transition of one-dimensional systems were to hold, an increasing periodic corrugation strength $U_0$ should turn an initially free-sliding monolayer into a pinned state through a well-defined dynamical phase transition. We address this problem by the simulated sliding of a realistic model 2D colloidal lattice, confirming the existence of a clear and sharp superlubric-pinned transition for increasing corrugation strength. Unlike the 1D Aubry transition which is continuous, the 2D transition exhibits a definite first-order character. With no change of symmetry, the transition entails a structural character, with a sudden increase of the colloid-colloid interaction energy, accompanied by a compensating downward jump of the colloid-corrugation energy. The transition value for the corrugation amplitude $U_0$ depends upon the misalignment angle $θ$ between the optical and the colloidal lattices, superlubricity surviving until larger corrugations for angles away from the energetically favored orientation, which is itself generally slightly misaligned, as shown in recent work. The observability of the superlubric-pinned colloid transition is proposed and discussed.

description: Objective: The health sciences library is involved in outreach projects with diverse communities, organization and other academic entities. In exploring other outreach opportunities, we realized that there was potential for collaborating with community colleges in our area. Therefore, we decided to pursue collaboration opportunities with two community colleges in our area. The proposed project is in response to the health information needs identified in survey results from faculty and students at two different community colleges. Based on these results, the researchers will create an interactive tutorial in collaboration with the Institute on Aging, health sciences library, and the two community colleges participating in the surveys. Methods: A health sciences librarian conducted in person interviews with librarians and faculty of two community colleges. Then she created two separate surveys, one for the faculty and one for the students, to learn more about their health information needs and see how we could meet the health information needs found in the survey results. Surveys were sent to faculty to distribute to their students both in print and electronic format with consent forms. Results: To follow since we are still collecting surveys. Conclusions: To follow since we are waiting for more surveys to analyze and make conclusions.

description: This systematic review primarily aims to clarify the electrophysiological correlates of emotions (both perceived and felt) during music listening. A secondary aim is to ascertain the robustness of identified electrophysiological markers quantitatively by a meta-analysis. We aim to cover all types of electrophysiological measurements, which include electroencephalography (EEG), electrocorticography (ECoG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG). With that, outcomes will be discussed in terms of oscillatory and evoked neuronal activity.
Les politiques d'échelles de la campagne de Greenpeace Canada dans la forêt boréale du Québec : une analyse en political ecology

description: Depuis sa création en 1971, Greenpeace s’est constituée en véritable mouvement socioécologique. L’organisation a adopté dès sa formation un discours critique dénonçant les excès de l’ordre socioéconomique dominant ainsi qu’une forme d’organisation décentralisée. La croissance rapide de l’organisation a cependant transformé son fonctionnement. La prise de décision en son sein s’est centralisée et son discours s’est adapté à une audience plus large et plus variée, tout en tentant de conserver sa nature revendicatrice. Greenpeace est ainsi vite devenue l’organisation écologiste la plus connue à travers le monde. L’essence de la particularité de Greenpeace se retrouve donc d’une part dans son rôle en tant que mouvement de résistance, et de l’autre, dans le caractère lui-même dominant de son discours au sein du mouvement vert au sens large. Greenpeace se démarque ainsi par sa capacité à mener seule, ou presque, des changements à grande échelle tout en prétendant rester près de la base. Cette dualité qui caractérise Greenpeace ouvre cependant la porte à des dynamiques internes contradictoires et à des relations complexes avec les différents acteurs sociaux, économiques et institutionnels. Il semblerait que la double identité de Greenpeace, en tant que mouvement de résistance et organisation dominante, l’amène à défendre des causes complexes affectant des populations locales, mais en adoptant des discours grandement simplifiés et destinés à ses sympathisants à travers le monde. Son implication dans l’enjeu de la gestion de la forêt boréale du Québec témoigne bien de cette situation. L’incapacité de Greenpeace à offrir des solutions adaptées aux besoins des communautés locales l’attirerait les critiques des différentes parties prenantes impliquées dans l’enjeu et exposerait publiquement la contradiction entre ses deux impératifs identitaires. La perception du public que ceux-ci soient incompatibles remettrait en question la capacité de Greenpeace à mener des campagnes à grande échelle qui soient à la fois bénéfiques aux populations locales et, de ce fait, les identités qui lui sont inhérentes et qui sont à la base de son succès. Cette situation l’amènerait à modifier les stratégies qu’elle privilégie.
De l’invisibilité à la visibilité sur le web : analyse d’un blogue consacré aux femmes ayant fait le choix de ne pas avoir d’enfant

description: Cette thèse va porter tout particulièrement sur l’analyse d’un blogue consacré aux femmes qui, délibérément, ont fait le choix de ne pas avoir d’enfant, les « childfree ». Autour d’elles se développe tout un discours car elles vont à l’opposé des normes « socialement acceptables » préconisées par la société occidentale, qui prône un rôle de mère et d’épouse pour la femme dans un modèle familial ancestral pronataliste. Les « childfree » apparaissent dès lors comme des « outsiders » qui doivent en permanence justifier leur choix de vie face à cette norme de la parentalité. Il est intéressant de se pencher sur ce groupe marqué qui veut sortir de l’ombre et être reconnu en tant que tel, et qui s’exprime au travers de ce blogue « Maman, non merci » (http://mamannonmerci.blogspot.ca/) créé en février 2010 par Magenta Baribeau, cinéaste documentariste québécoise engagée, de 38 ans, sans enfant par choix.

description: Background: Vulvar Vestibulitis (VVS) is the most common cause of vulvo-vaginal pain in reproductive age women, affecting up to 15% of the general female population. Women with VVS have pain with intercourse, and sensitivity to touch on genital contact. Psychological characteristics such as anxiety and somatization are also common in the population. In this study, we sought to assess the relationship between self reported intercourse-related pain and psychological distress among women with VVS. We hypothesized that women who reported higher levels of intercourse related pain were more likely to have a higher level of psychological distress 1 year after their initial visit to the UNC Vulvar Pain Clinic.

Multiple scale theory of topology driven pattern on directed networks

description: Dynamical processes on networks are currently being considered in different domains of cross-disciplinary interest. Reaction-diffusion systems hosted on directed graphs are in particular relevant for their widespread applications, from neuroscience, to computer networks and traffic systems. Due to the peculiar spectrum of the discrete Laplacian operator, homogeneous fixed points can turn unstable, on a directed support, because of the topology of the network, a phenomenon which cannot be induced on undirected graphs. A linear analysis can be performed to single out the conditions that underly the instability. The complete characterization of the patterns, which are eventually attained beyond the linear regime of exponential growth, calls instead for a full non linear treatment. By performing a multiple time scale perturbative calculation, we here derive an effective equation for the non linear evolution of the amplitude of the most unstable mode, close to the threshold of criticality. This is a Stuart-Landau equation whose complex coefficients appear to depend on the topological features of the embedding directed graph. The theory proves adequate versus simulations, as confirmed by operating with a paradigmatic reaction-diffusion model.
