Didymium annulisporum

description: Didymium annulisporum H.W. Keller & Schokn. (Fig. 3)
Myxocarps gregarious to scattered, sessile, primarily sporocarpous, 0.1–0.4 mm diam., subglobose to depressed, white, occasionally with straight or rarely branched plasmodiocarps 0.08–0.16 mm wide and up to 1.5 mm long; peridium appearing as a single, eggshell-like layer composed of a thin membranous, colourless layer charged with crystals, dehiscence usually basal; columella absent; capillitium arising mainly from and remaining attached to the base, consisting of sub-parallel, hyaline threads, 1 µm diam.; spores dark brown, subglobose, (9–)10(–11) µm diam., the surface uniformly covered by truncate processes, appearing echinulate with light microscopy.
 Comments:— From a macroscopic point of view, Didymium annulisporum resembles the very common D. difforme. Fruiting in small groups or scattered, sometimes oval to elongated, up to 0.5 mm wide and up to 1 mm long, white. Peridium eggshell-like, smooth or sometimes with small wrinkles, consisting of two tightly connected layers. Microscopically the traces of D. difforme are larger, dark purple-brown and covered with very small warts. D. comatum also has a peridium that falls off completely as a lid, but has a capillitium consisting of very thin elastic threads. D. quitense has a scarce net-shaped capillitium and D. saturnus has yellow-brown fruiting bodies and spores that are densely covered with warts. D. trachysporum can also look like this but it has purplish brown spores lighter in colour on one side and no equatorial ring around the tracks. D. annulisporum capillitium consists of stiff, dark coloured threads, with interconnections, sometimes with thickening, ending in thinning, transparent, often dichotomously branched points. The wires run more or less parallel from the base to the top (Neubert et al. 1995, Gotink et al. 2010).

Confinement with Kalb - Ramond Fields

description: We consider models with N U(1) gauge fields A_μ^n, N Kalb-Ramond fields B_{μν}^n, an arbitrary bare action and a fixed UV cutoff Λ. Under mild assumptions these can be obtained as effective low energy theories of SU(N+1) Yang Mills theories in the maximal abelian gauge. For a large class of bare actions they can be solved in the large N limit and exhibit confinement. The confining phase is characterized by an approximate ``low energy'' vector gauge symmetry under which the Kalb-Ramond fields B_{μν}^n transform. The same symmetry allows for a duality transformation showing that magnetic monopoles have condensed. The models allow for various mechanisms of confinement, depending on which sources for A_μ^n or B_{μν}^n are switched on, but the area law for the Wilson loop is obtained in any case.

description: We measure the rotation periods of 19 stars in the {\it Kepler} transiting planetary systems, $P_{\rm rot, astero}$ from asteroseismology and $P_{\rm rot, phot}$ from photometric variation of their lightcurve. Two stars exhibit two clear peaks in the Lomb-Scargle periodogram, neither of which agrees with the seismic rotation period. Other four systems do not show any clear peak, whose stellar rotation period is impossible to estimate reliably from the photometric variation; their stellar equators may be significantly inclined with respect to the planetary orbital plane. For the remaining 13 systems, $P_{\rm rot, astero}$ and $P_{\rm rot, phot}$ agree within 30\%. Interestingly, three out of the 13 systems are in the spin-orbit resonant state in which $P_{\rm orb, b}/P_{\rm rot, astero} \approx 1$ with $P_{\rm orb, b}$ being the orbital period of the inner-most planet of each system. The corresponding chance probability is ($0.2$-$4.7$) \% based on the photometric rotation period data for 464 {\it Kepler} transiting planetary systems. While further analysis of stars with reliable rotation periods is required to examine the statistical significance, the spin-orbit resonance between the star and planets, if confirmed, have important implications for the star-planet tidal interaction, in addition to the origin of the spin-orbit (mis-)alignment of transiting planetary systems.

title: Assessment of Lipid Extraction from Human Bone on Subsequent Demineralization

description: The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of various solvents m removal of lipids from human bone, and to determine the effects of lipid extraction on subsequent acid solubilization of the mineral components of bone. Specifically, the following processing steps were studied; 1) ground human bone was de fatted in various ethanol / water mixtures, and / or chloroform / methanol ( 2: 1, v:v ), 2) ground human bone which had lipids extracted ( in absolute ethanol ) and bone which had not had lipids extracted were demineralized using vanous concentrations of hydrochloric acid to assess the value of lipid extraction on subsequent demineralization. For most of the studies, ground bone was placed into columns and the various combinations of solvent systems allowed to flow through the bone matrix while lipid and calcium concentrations were monitored in the eluent solutions. The data demonstrate that chloroform / methanol ( 2:1, v:v ) removes bulk lipid more effectively than various combinations of ethanol / water mixtures. Lipid removal prior to demineralization with HCl improves subsequent demineralization of bone and the rate and extent of demineralization were significantly affected by the concentration of HCl used in the demineralization process. The process of demineralization was monitored using a calcium-specific electrode or by measuring the pH of the eluent solutions. All data were statistically evaluated.

The results indicate that the capacities of solvents for lipid extraction from human bone matrix did not differ significantly among the various solvents tested. However, lipid extraction using column extraction methods and chloroform / methanol mixtures required less volume than absolute ethanol. Generally, lipid extraction of bone prior to demineralization made the calcium more extractable than from non lipid extracted bone. Higher concentrations of HCl solution usually required less time for calcium extraction from bone matrix, although 0.3 N HCl extracted more calcium than 0.5 N HCL The present data indicate that pH values of eluent acidic solutions remain between pH 3.0 and 4.0 while the demineralization process occurs. This value declines to below or near pH 1.0 when demineralization is completed.

description: In the Western society, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), characterized by the excessive accumulation of fat in the liver, represents the most common cause of chronic liver disease. If left untreated, approximately 15%-20% of patients with NAFLD will progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), in which lobular inflammation, hepatocyte ballooning and fibrogenesis further contribute to a distorted liver architecture and function. NASH initiation has significant effects on liver-related mortality, as even the presence of early stage fibrosis increases the chances of adverse patient outcome. Therefore, adequate diagnostic tools for NASH are needed, to ensure that relevant therapeutic actions can be taken as soon as necessary. To date, the diagnostic gold standard remains the invasive liver biopsy, which is associated with several drawbacks such as high financial costs, procedural risks, and inter/intra-observer variability in histology analysis. As liver inflammation is a major hallmark of disease progression, inflammation-related circulating markers may represent an interesting source of non-invasive biomarkers for NAFLD/NASH. Examples for such markers include cytokines, chemokines or shed receptors from immune cells, circulating exosomes related to inflammation, and changing proportions of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) subtypes. This review aims at documenting and critically discussing the utility of such novel inflammatory markers for NAFLD/NASH-diagnosis, patient stratification and risk prediction.

description: We develop the tensor renormalization group (TRG) algorithm for statistical systems with open boundaries, which allows us to investigate not only the bulk but also the boundary property, such as the surface magnetization. We demonstrate that the tensors representing the boundary in our algorithm exhibit the fixed point structures just as bulk tensors in previous TRG algorithms. At criticality, the scale-invariant boundary fixed point tensors have the information of the conformal tower, which is described by the underlying boundary conformal field theory.

description: Background: The benefits of faith-based coping or using religious and spiritual beliefs as a stabilizing force for interpreting stressful or distressing events are largely unexplored among the exodus of Arabic-speaking refugee populations from Muslim-majority countries, particularly those resettled in Europe. The present study aimed to explore the manifestation of faith-based coping strategies among Arabic-speaking refugee adults seeking mental healthcare services in Berlin, Germany and explore how favorable faith-based coping strategies can be optimized from a mental health service-delivery and broader integration perspective. Methods: A total of 17 qualitative interviews were conducted with Arabic-speaking refugee adults (six females, 11 males) seeking mental health services at the Charite Universitaetsmedizin in Berlin. Research questions aimed to solicit comprehensive perspectives from refugee adults on their mental health, with an emphasis on faith-based coping, and how this facilitated or impeded their integration into German society. Interview transcripts were translated to English from Arabic and analyzed using MAXQDA (2018) to highlight thematic patterns using a grounded theory approach. Results: Findings were structured into four themes, including: (I) faith-based coping methods during flight, (II) changes in faith practices upon arrival, (III) faith-based coping methods to address distress during integration, and (IV) advice for German mental healthcare providers. Participants who demonstrated a stronger commitment to faith were more likely to utilize faith-based coping strategies when seeking mental health services and facing the challenges of displacement and integration. Examples of faith-based coping included prayer, supplication, reciting scripture, and seeking help from a local religious leader. Conclusion: The findings suggest how faith and faith practices play a significant role in the mental health and integration of refugee populations in Germany and provide insight on how mental healthcare can be delivered in a culturally-sensitive manner, providing alternatives to the social, cultural, and linguistic barriers posed by the German health system. These findings are particularly relevant for mental health professionals, non-governmental organizations, and humanitarian aid agencies providing mental healthcare to Arabic-speaking populations recently resettled in Western contexts.

Didymium atrichum

description: Didymium atrichum Henney & Alexop. (Fig. 4)
Sporocarps sessile, globose to plasmodiocarpous, scattered or clustered, 80–250 µm diam.; hypothallus conspicuous, gelatinous at first, slightly elevated when dry, sometimes resembling a short stalk; peridium membranous, sprinkled or covered with lime crystals; columella mostly absent, but sometimes rudimentary and then calcareous; capillitium absent; spore-mass black, spores mostly globose to subglobose, dark brown, 10–11 µm diam., spinulose or faintly reticulate under oil immersion, but conspicuously reticulate by SEM; phaneroplasmodium minute, milky white.
 Comments:— In some sporangia of D. atrichum a calcareous mass at the base suggests a rudimentary columella reminiscent of that found sometimes in D. trachysporum. This and the fact that the latter species often has a scanty capillitium and spores on which the warts are often arranged in lines to form an inconspicuous reticulation, suggests a possible relationship between the two species. It is closer to that of D. trachysporum in that both these species have lime crystals united laterally into flattened discs (Henney et al. 1980).
 D. atrichum has a very restricted distribution, since it was known previously only from North America and Africa. Because of the presence of crystalline lime on its peridium, this species is placed in the genus Didymium. The sporangia are produced either singly or in heaped clusters resembling pseudoaethalia, the often clustered sessile sporangia. The most distinctive taxonomic characters of this species are its rather small sessile sporophores 100–300 μm diam., the absence of a capillitium and spores that are faintly reticulate. The spores, using light microscopy appear minutely verrucose or faintly reticulate, but the scanning electron microscope reveals a conspicuous, sometimes broken reticulation (Henney et al. 1980, Stephenson et al. 2019).

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: In the framework of perturbative quantum field theory (QFT) we propose a new, universal (re)normalization condition (called 'master Ward identity') which expresses the symmetries of the underlying classical theory. It implies for example the field equations, energy-momentum, charge- and ghost-number conservation, renormalized equal-time commutation relations and BRST-symmetry. It seems that the master Ward identity can nearly always be satisfied, the only exceptions we know are the usual anomalies. We prove the compatibility of the master Ward identity with the other (re)normalization conditions of causal perturbation theory, and for pure massive theories we show that the 'central solution' of Epstein and Glaser fulfills the master Ward identity, if the UV-scaling behavior of its individual terms is not relatively lowered. Application of the master Ward identity to the BRST-current of non-Abelian gauge theories generates an identity (called 'master BRST-identity') which contains the information which is needed for a local construction of the algebra of observables, i.e. the elimination of the unphysical fields and the construction of physical states in the presence of an adiabatically switched off interaction.

description: We study the formation of planes of dwarf galaxies around Milky Way (MW)-mass haloes in the EAGLE galaxy formation simulation. We focus on satellite systems similar to the one in the MW: spatially thin or with a large fraction of members orbiting in the same plane. To characterise the latter, we introduce a robust method to identify the subsets of satellites that have the most co-planar orbits. Out of the 11 MW classical dwarf satellites, 8 have highly clustered orbital planes whose poles are contained within a $22^\circ$ opening angle centred around $(l,b)=(182^\circ,-2^\circ)$. This configuration stands out when compared to both isotropic and typical $Λ$CDM satellite distributions. Purely flattened satellite systems are short-lived chance associations and persist for less than $1~\rm{Gyr}$. In contrast, satellite subsets that share roughly the same orbital plane are longer lived, with half of the MW-like systems being at least $4~\rm{Gyrs}$ old. On average, satellite systems were flatter in the past, with a minimum in their minor-to-major axes ratio about $9~\rm{Gyrs}$ ago, which is the typical infall time of the classical satellites. MW-like satellite distributions have on average always been flatter than the overall population of satellites in MW-mass haloes and, in particular, they correspond to systems with a high degree of anisotropic accretion of satellites. We also show that torques induced by the aspherical mass distribution of the host halo channel some satellite orbits into the host's equatorial plane, enhancing the fraction of satellites with co-planar orbits. In fact, the orbital poles of co-planar satellites are tightly aligned with the minor axis of the host halo.

description: We find the classical supersymmetric vacuum states of a class of N = 1* field theories obtained by mass deforming superconformal models with simple gauge groups and N = 4 or N =2 supersymmetry. In particular, new classical vacuum states for mass-deformed N = 4 models with Sp(2N) and SO(N) gauge symmetry are found. We also derive the classical vacua for various mass-deformed N=2 models with Sp(2N) and SU(N) gauge groups and antisymmetric (and symmetric) hypermultiplets. We suggest interpretations of the mass-deformed vacua in terms of three-branes expanded into five-brane configurations.

description: The modern agricultural production is facing the problem of a growing society connected with the growing asking for food as well as different environmental threats. To solve this issue, agricultural production should be more sustainable and efficient which can be reached by using new technologies. In the paper the most important technologies, which were evaluated by different research methods to find how and when they could be used for a sustainable intensification of agriculture were highlighted by applying technology and market readiness models. By asking professionals from different fields of agriculture in practice as well as academia it was found that technologies that collect or utilize advanced data (sensors, drones) used for knowledge based management are more applicable for use, contrary to nanotechnologies where the costs of development and applications limits the readiness.

As it is known, in the bosonic case the Feynman-Siegel gauge is not universal within the level truncation method. We explore another gauge that is more suitable for calculation of the tachyon potential for fermionic string at level (2,6). We show that this new gauge has no restrictions on the region of its validity at least at this level.

description: We study the finite theta correction to the metric of the moduli space of noncommutative multi-solitons in scalar field theory in (2+1) dimensions. By solving the equation of motion up to order O(theta^{-2}) explicitly, we show that the multi-soliton solution must have the same center for a generic potential term. We examine the condition that the multi-centered configurations are allowed. Under this condition, we calculate the finite theta correction to the metric of the moduli space of multi-solitons and argue the possibility of the non right-angle scattering of two solitons. We also obtain the potential between two solitons.

description: We study the spontaneous breakdown of SO(10) symmetry in the IIB matrix model, a conjectured nonperturbative definition of type IIB superstring theory in ten dimensions. Our analysis is based on a Gaussian expansion technique, which was originally proposed by Kabat-Lifschytz and applied successfully to the strong coupling dynamics of the Matrix Theory. We propose a prescription for including higher order corrections, which yields a rapid convergence in a simple example. This prescription is then applied to the IIB matrix model up to the third order. We find that the `self-consistency equations' allow various symmetry breaking solutions. Among them, the solution preserving SO(4) symmetry is found to have the smallest free energy. The value of the free energy comes closer to the analytic formula obtained by Krauth-Nicolai-Staudacher as we increase the order. The extent of the space-time in the 4 directions is larger than the remaining 6 directions, and the ratio increases with the order. These results provide the first analytical evidence that four-dimensional space-time is generated dynamically in the IIB matrix model.

description: Platelets are critically involved in murine patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure. To date, the clinical significance of these findings in human preterm infants with PDA is still controversial. We discuss the available study data on the role of platelets for PDA closure in preterm infants: Several mostly retrospective studies have yielded conflicting results on whether thrombocytopenia contributes to failed spontaneous ductal closure. The same applies to investigations on the role of thrombocytopenia as a risk factor for unsuccessful ductus arteriosus closure by pharmacological treatment with cyclooxygenase inhibitors. Nonetheless, recent meta-analyses have concluded that thrombocytopenia constitutes an independent risk factor for both failed spontaneous and pharmacological PDA closure in preterm infants. However, the available investigations differ in regard to patient characteristics, diagnostic strategies, and treatment protocols. Several studies suggest that impaired platelet function rather than platelet number is critically involved in failure of ductus arteriosus closure in the preterm infant. A recent randomized-controlled trial on platelet transfusions in preterm infants with PDA failed to show any benefit for liberal vs. restrictive transfusion thresholds on PDA closure rates. Importantly, liberal transfusions were associated with an increased rate of intraventricular hemorrhage, and thus should be avoided. In conclusion, the available evidence suggests that thrombocytopenia and platelet dysfunction contribute to failure of spontaneous and pharmacological PDA closure in preterm infants. However, these platelet effects on PDA seem to be of only moderate clinical significance. Furthermore, platelet transfusions in thrombocytopenic preterm infants in order to facilitate PDA closure appear to cause more harm than good.

description: When the molecules of a gaseous system are far apart, say in microscale gas flows where the surface to volume ratio is high and hence the surface forces dominant, the molecule-surface interactions lead to the formation of a local thermodynamically non-equilibrium region extending few mean free paths from the surface. The dynamics of such systems is accurately described by Boltzmann equation. However, the multi-dimensional nature of Boltzmann equation presents a huge computational challenge. With the recent mathematical developments and the advent of petascale, the dynamics of full Boltzmann equation is now tractable. We present an implementation of the recently introduced multi-species discontinuous Galerkin fast spectral (DGFS) method for solving full Boltzmann on streaming multi-processors. The present implementation solves the inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation in span of few minutes, making it at least two order-of-magnitude faster than the present state-of-art stochastic method---direct simulation Monte Carlo---widely used for solving Boltzmann equation. Various performance metrics, such as weak/strong scaling have been presented. A parallel efficiency of 0.96--0.99 is demonstrated on 36 Nvidia Tesla-P100 GPUs.

description: Abstract

Background: The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in developing nations is increasing as a result of expanding urbanization, a growing economy, and shifting lifestyles. Hypertension, as a significant contributor to the burden of non-communicable diseases, is a global public health challenge. The global burden of hypertension is projected to be 1.56 billion in 2025; two-thirds of this will be occurring in developing countries. Hypertension disproportionately affects populations in low- and middle-income countries Wondimagegn Paulos Kumma, Bernt Lindtjørn, Eskindir Loha (2021). Methodology: The research approach used for the study was quantitative approach. The research design adopted for the study was one group pretest and post test research design.  The total size of sample comprises of 60 patients with hypertension, who fulfilled the sample selection criteria were selected for the study. Result: Effectiveness of cucumber juice on hypertension among patients with hypertension shows that the pretest mean score of systolic BP was 148.16±12.52 and the post test mean score was 124.76±10.41. The calculated paired ‘t’ test value of t= 12.836 was found to be statistically highly significant at p<0.001 level. The pretest mean score of diastolic BP was 96.43±7.22 and the post test mean score was 79.43±10.35. The calculated paired ‘t’ test value of t=9.925 was found to be statistically highly significant at p<0.001 level. Conclusion: The investigator analysed the data and it could be concluded that the administration of cucumber juice on hypertension was an effective method to reduce the blood pressure level among clients with hypertension and also is evident that the blood pressure level were influenced by the demographic variables age and medication/ treatment received for hypertension.

description: We study non-supersymmetric fermion mass and condensate deformations of the AdS/CFT Correspondence. The 5 dimensional supergravity flows are lifted to a complete and remarkably simple 10 dimensional background. A brane probe analysis shows that when all the fermions have an equal mass a positive mass is generated for all six scalar fields leaving non-supersymmetric Yang Mills theory in the deep infra-red. We numerically determine the potential, produced by the background, in the Schroedinger equation relevant to the study of O^++ glueballs. The potential is a bounded well, providing evidence of stability and for a discrete, confined spectrum. The geometry can also describe the supergravity background around an (unstable) fuzzy 5-brane.

description: 'Self-mutilation' has been the subject of attention within the sciences of psychiatry, psychoanalysis and psychology since Freud's time. Interest in selfmutilation spans the diversity of these sciences, producing among others, psychoanalytic, cognitive, behavioural and biological perspectives. This interest appears to be driven primarily by clinical imperatives, focusing on the patient that engages in self-mutilation and how best to treat him or, more often, her. One striking feature of this literature is the emotional responses that clinicians display toward these patients. One psychiatrist, for example, says that, 'the typical clinician (myself included) treating a patient who selfmutilates is often left feeling a combination of helpless, horrified, guilty, furious, betrayed, disgusted, and sad' (Frances, 1987:316). These reactions may be attributed to the disturbing nature of the behaviour itself: Favazza, for example, admits that 'the undeniable truth is that acts of SM [self-mutilation] are unnerving' (1998:265).

description: A persistent focus on the activities and achievements of the wealthiest and most Orthodox Jewish men, justified a rigorous reevaluation of overlooked historical source material in order to provide a basis for our understanding the distinctive role of Jewish women within the interconnected British cities of London and Sydney in the second half of the nineteenth century. The chapters are divided into subsections that focus on topics that were significant to Jewish women and girls. The experiences and thoughts of the wealthiest and most influential Jewish women, including women from the de Rothschild and Montefiore families, are presented aside the poorest and most disempowered Jewish females, such as girls, widows and orphans in order to present the widest range of perspectives. The dissertation begins by exploring Jewish women's involvement in the politics related to Jewish emancipation and women's enfranchisement, and the way that Jewish migration into London promoted changes to their social and religious networks and sparked interest in Australia as a destination for Jewish colonists. This provides a basis for understanding the nuances of British-Jewish women's role within the family and the way a preference for smaller families intersected with religious reforms and altered women's attitude toward attending the mikvah and following the laws of Niddah. The dissertation also investigates the distinctive culinary traditions and holiday observances of British-Jewish women, which varied somewhat from American and European women's traditions, as did their role in the synagogue. The educational achievement, employment opportunities, and the contributions of Jewish women as they volunteered in Jewish settings within Sydney and London are explored. These subjects enhance our understanding of women's daily lives and their desire for equality not only with Jewish men, but also with their non-Jewish neighbors. This dissertation provides a basis for future scholars to include the experiences of English and Australian Jewish women in trans-regional and cross-cultural histories and broadens our knowledge of female migrants from a numerically small religious group.

The Delay Time of Gravitational Wave -- Gamma-Ray Burst Associations

description: The first gravitational wave (GW) - gamma-ray burst (GRB) association, GW170817/GRB 170817A, had an offset in time, with the GRB trigger time delayed by $\sim$1.7 s with respect to the merger time of the GW signal. We generally discuss the astrophysical origin of the delay time, $Δt$, of GW-GRB associations within the context of compact binary coalescence (CBC) -- short GRB (sGRB) associations and GW burst -- long GRB (lGRB) associations. In general, the delay time should include three terms, the time to launch a clean (relativistic) jet, $Δt_{\rm jet}$; the time for the jet to break out from the surrounding medium, $Δt_{\rm bo}$; and the time for the jet to reach the energy dissipation and GRB emission site, $Δt_{\rm GRB}$. For CBC-sGRB associations, $Δt_{\rm jet}$ and $Δt_{\rm bo}$ are correlated, and the final delay can be from 10 ms to a few seconds. For GWB-lGRB associations, $Δt_{\rm jet}$ and $Δt_{\rm bo}$ are independent. The latter is at least $\sim$10 s, so that $Δt$ of these associations is at least this long. For certain jet launching mechanisms of lGRBs, $Δt$ can be minutes or even hours long due to the extended engine waiting time $Δt_{\rm wait}$ to launch a jet. We discuss the cases of GW170817/GRB 170817A and GW150914/GW150914-GBM within this theoretical framework and suggest that the delay times of future GW/GRB associations will shed light into the jet launching mechanisms of GRBs.

description: Objectives: Prediction of aortic hemodynamics after aortic valve replacement (AVR) could help optimize treatment planning and improve outcomes. This study aims to demonstrate an approach to predict postoperative maximum velocity, maximum pressure gradient, secondary flow degree (SFD), and normalized flow displacement (NFD) in patients receiving biological AVR. Methods: Virtual AVR was performed for 10 patients, who received actual AVR with a biological prosthesis. The virtual AVRs used only preoperative anatomical and 4D flow MRI data. Subsequently, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed and the abovementioned hemodynamic parameters compared between postoperative 4D flow MRI data and CFD results. Results: For maximum velocities and pressure gradients, postoperative 4D flow MRI data and CFD results were strongly correlated (R 2 = 0.75 and R-2 = 0.81) with low root mean square error (0.21 m/s and 3.8 mmHg). SFD and NFD were moderately and weakly correlated at R 2 = 0.44 and R 2 = 0.20, respectively. Flow visualization through streamlines indicates good qualitative agreement between 4D flow MRI data and CFD results in most cases. Conclusion: The approach presented here seems suitable to estimate postoperative maximum velocity and pressure gradient in patients receiving biological AVR, using only preoperative MRI data. The workflow can be performed in a reasonable time frame and offers a method to estimate postoperative valve prosthesis performance and to identify patients at risk of patient-prosthesis mismatch preoperatively. Novel parameters, such as SFD and NFD, appear to be more sensitive, and estimation seems harder. Further workflow optimization and validation of results seems warranted.

description: Radiation of dileptons and photons from high energy nuclear collisions provides information on the space-time evolution of the hot dense matter produced therein. We compute this radiation using relativistic hydrodynamics and a coarse-grained version of the microscopic event generator UrQMD, both of which provide a good description of the hadron spectra. The currently most accurate dilepton and photon emission rates from perturbative QCD and from experimentally-based hadronic calculations are used. Comparisons are made to data on central Pb-Pb and Pb-Au collisions taken at the CERN SPS at a beam energy of 158 A GeV. Both hydrodynamics and UrQMD provide very good descriptions of the photon transverse momentum spectrum measured between 1 and 4 GeV, but slightly underestimate the low mass spectrum of e+e- pairs, even with greatly broadened rho and omega vector mesons. Predictions are given for the transverse momentum distribution of dileptons.
