description: (A-C) Cultured human podocytes were infected with lentiviral particles encoding pre-hsa-miR-143-3p, pre-hsa-miR-145-5p, or scrambled control allele (Sc), and analyzed for protein expression levels of KLF5, KRAS, KLF4, NEDD4L, Sp1 and PLCE1, putative target molecules for miR-143-3p and/or miR-145-5p by Western blotting. Podocytes expressing hsa-miR-145-5p and hsa-miR-143-3p had lower expression levels of KLF5 and KRAS, respectively, suggesting that KLF5 and KRAS are the target molecules of hsa-miR-145-5p and hsa-miR-143-3p, respectively. Expression levels of KLF4, NEDD4L, Sp1 and PLCE1 in podocytes expressing hsa-miR-143-3p and miR-145-5p were comparable with control podocytes expressing Sc, respectively, suggesting that these molecules are not target molecules of hsa-miR-143-3p/145-5p. Blots of KRAS and KLF5 were quantified by densitometry (B and C, respectively). (D-H) Cultured human podocytes were infected with lentiviral vectors encoding ShRNA for KLF5 (Sh-KLF5), ShRNA for KRAS (Sh-KRAS), or non-targeting sequences (Sh-Ctrl). Next, the expression levels of WT1 mRNA were examined by RT-qPCR (D and E), and those of WT1 protein was analyzed by Western blotting (F) and quantified by densitometry (G and H). In podocytes with Sh-KLF5, expression levels of WT1 mRNA (D) and protein (F, G) were higher than control podocytes with Sh-Ctrl. In podocytes with Sh-KRAS, WT1 mRNA expression levels were higher (E) compared with control podocytes, and WT1 protein expression levels were equivalent (F, H). These results suggest that KLF5 and KRAS decrease rather than increase WT1 expression in podocytes, the opposite of what was expected. In panel B, C, D, E, G, and H, values are normalized to those of β-actin and presented as mean ± SD for four samples. Values are shown relative to podocytes with Sc in panel B and C, and to podocytes with Sh-Ctrl in panel D, E, G, H, respectively. **, p < 0.01; *, p < 0.05; NS, not significant.

description: We propose a single-photon router using a single atom with an inversion center coupled to quantum multichannels made of coupled-resonator waveguides. We show that the spontaneous emission of the atom can direct single photons from one quantum channel into another. The on-demand classical field perfectly switches-off the single-photon routing due to the quantum interference in the atomic amplitudes of optical transitions. Total reflections in the incident channel are due to the photonic bound state in the continuum. Two virtual channels, named as scatter-free and controllable channels, are found, which are coherent superpositions of quantum channels. Any incident photon in the scatter-free channel is totally transmitted. The propagating states of the controllable channel are orthogonal to those of the scatter-free channel. Single photons in the controllable channel can be perfectly reflected or transmitted by the atom.

description: Abstract Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a widespread and commonly used approach to test substantive hypotheses in the social and behavioral sciences. When performing hypothesis tests, it is vital to rely on a sufficiently large sample size to achieve an adequate degree of statistical power to detect the hypothesized effect. However, applications of SEM rarely consider statistical power in informing sample size considerations or determine the statistical power for the focal hypothesis tests performed. One reason is the difficulty in translating substantive hypotheses into specific effect size values required to perform power analyses, as well as the lack of user-friendly software to automate this process. The present paper presents the second version of the R package semPower which includes comprehensive functionality for various types of power analyses in SEM. Specifically, semPower 2 allows one to perform both analytical and simulated a priori, post hoc, and compromise power analysis for structural equation models with or without latent variables, and also supports multigroup settings and provides user-friendly convenience functions for many common model types (e.g., standard confirmatory factor analysis [CFA] models, regression models, autoregressive moving average [ARMA] models, cross-lagged panel models) to simplify power analyses when a model-based definition of the effect in terms of model parameters is desired.
Zukunft Friedhof – Bedeutung und Potenziale als öffentlicher Raum: Bedürfnisse und Herausforderungen der zukünftigen Nutzung von Friedhöfen aus planerischer und sozialräumlicher Perspektive
Creators: name: Geiger, Beat

description: Friedhöfe sind Teil des öffentlichen Raumes. Sie befinden sich heute häufig in umfassend erschlossenen Lagen und bilden daher einen zentralen Bestandteil des Siedlungsgefüges. Als abgegrenzter Raum für die Toten ist der Friedhof vor allem mit Leid und Trauer verbunden. Zugleich ist er ein Ort des Abschieds sowie der Erinnerung. Der Friedhof ist deshalb ein ebenso bedeutsamer Ort für die Lebenden. Friedhöfe sind zweckbestimmte Orte für die Totenruhe. Neben dieser Nutzung haben sie jedoch weitere gesellschaftliche, kulturelle und stadtklimatische Funktionen. Im Zusammenhang mit der durch die Schweizer Raumplanung angestrebten Siedlungsentwicklung nach innen und der damit verbundenen verdichteten Bauweise geraten unbebaute Flächen in Städten zunehmend unter Druck. Mit der Verdichtung bestehender Siedlungen gehen Diskussionen über den Umgang mit Friedhofsflächen einher. Die Auseinandersetzungen sind neben raumplanerischen Überlegungen auch zurückzuführen auf Veränderungen in der Sepulkralkultur. Wurden bis weit in das 20. Jahrhundert grosse Grünflächen für Sargbestattungen benötigt, entscheiden sich inzwischen immer mehr Menschen für eine Beisetzung in einem Urnen- oder Gemeinschaftsgrab. Die entstehenden Freiflächen bieten Potenziale für neue Nutzungsmöglichkeiten, wodurch sich neue Bedürfnisse und Ansprüche an den öffentlichen Raum ergeben. Der Raum Friedhof ist seit jeher ein strukturierter sowie durch soziale Normen, soziales Handeln und gesellschaftliche Werte regulierter Raum. Er erfüllt nicht nur funktionale Eigenschaften, sondern nimmt auch sozialräumlich betrachtet bedeutsame Funktionen ein. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Masterthesis wird untersucht, welche Bedürfnisse heute an den öffentlichen Raum Friedhof bestehen und wie sich diese in Zukunft entwickeln werden. Des Weiteren wird erarbeitet, welche Aspekte es aus einer planerischen und sozialräumlichen Perspektive zu berücksichtigen gilt, damit die Weiterentwicklung der Friedhöfe sowie die Nutzung der vorhandenen Potenziale unter Einbeziehung der Bevölkerung gelingen.

description: The accretion of hydrogen-rich material onto carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (CO WDs) is crucial for understanding type Ia supernova (SN Ia) from the single-degenerate model, but this process has not been well understood due to the numerical difficulties in treating H and He flashes during the accretion. For the CO WD masses from 0.5 to $1.378\,{M}_\odot$ and accretion rates in the range from $10^{-8}$ to $10^{-5}\,{M}_\odot\,\mbox{yr}^{-1}$, we simulated the accretion of solar-composition material onto CO WDs using the state-of-the-art stellar evolution code of {\sc MESA}. For comparison with the steady-state models (e.g \citet{nskh07}), we firstly ignored the contribution from nuclear burning to the luminosity when determining the Eddington accretion rate and found that the properties of H burning in our accreting CO WD models are similar to those from the steady-state models, except that the critical accretion rates at which the WDs turn into red giants or H-shell flashes occur on their surfaces are slightly higher than those from the steady-state models. However, the super-Eddington wind is triggered at much lower accretion rates, than previously thought, when the contribution of nuclear burning to the total luminosity is included. This super-Eddington wind naturally prevents the CO WDs with high accretion rates from becoming red giants, thus presenting an alternative to the optically thick wind proposed by \cite{hkn96}. Furthermore, the super-Eddington wind works in low-metallicity environments, which may explain SNe Ia observed at high redshifts.

description: Responding to the need for recruitment and retention of a diverse geoscience population, we developed a capstone homework assignment for use in introductory-level geoscience courses. In this article we present “Geologic Issues: Community Impacts and Science Communication,” a place- and problem-based assignment designed using research on student learning and interest, as well as research that suggests underrepresented minority students are more likely to be attracted to science disciplines if they perceive that science can be used to help their communities. The assignment combines a socially relevant problem in a location of personal interest for each student with a short letter-writing assignment designed to help students recognize the value and applicability of the geosciences to their lives. This assignment was successfully implemented in two very different settings—a highly selective four-year college and an open-access two-year college—and to diverse populations of students in small and moderate-sized classes. Students who participated in the study reported positive influences this assignment made on their perceptions of geoscience. For example, the assignment helped them (a) realize that geoscience was pertinent to their community (100% of students); (b) feel more confident in using and communicating science (95% of students); and (c) potentially see themselves as geoscientists because of interest, perception of the value of geoscience, and learning that geoscientists can work in their communities. These results are independent of academic setting, gender, and racial and ethnic diversity, indicating that all groups of students participating in the study benefitted from the assignment.

description: Abstract Background Few measurements of fatigue and quality of life have been performed during neoadjuvant chemotherapy of early breast cancer. This study evaluates fatigue and quality of life experienced by early breast cancer patients during neoadjuvant chemotherapy and their association with different clinical parameters. Methods Fifty-four stage I–III patients’ responses to the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI) and to the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B) were analyzed by a linear covariance pattern model. Chemotherapy regimen, age, baseline fatigue level, body-mass-index and cancer stage were added to the model to estimate their impact on both outcomes. Results All fatigue dimensions worsened in clinically relevant levels. Physical fatigue worsened the most, mental fatigue the least. For quality of life, physical and functional well-being worsened the most. Only emotional well-being improved during chemotherapy. Physical well-being worsened more during standard than during dose-dense chemotherapy, and more during anthracycline than during taxane cycles. Age, body-mass-index and cancer stage had no impact. The higher the fatigue levels at baseline, the less they worsened during chemotherapy. Conclusions Further actions to reduce fatigue and improve quality of life during neoadjuvant chemotherapy of early breast cancer are needed. Focus should be laid on the physical dimension. Future research should also investigate the impact of different chemotherapy sequences and densities on fatigue and quality of life. Study registration The study was registered in the German Clinical Trials Register in May 2019 (DRKS00016761).

description: The Training in Environmental Research and Academic Success (TIERA) program was created to increase recruitment and retention of environmental science majors at the University of Texas at El Paso, where ∼80% of students self-declare Hispanic origin, providing a unique opportunity to increase diversity in the future STEM workforce. Through curriculum redesign at freshman and sophomore levels, experiential learning and research mentoring were implemented and evaluated. Incoming freshmen coenrolled in Introduction to Environmental Science (lecture and lab) and a special section of university seminar to form a TIERA-learning community. Students started problem-based learning and research experiences in the spring of their freshman year, focusing on training in hypothesis testing, field methods, data collection, and teamwork. Students then registered for research courses in both semesters during their sophomore year. Under the supervision of a faculty mentor, they were immersed in ongoing research projects and ultimately presented a poster at a university-wide undergraduate research symposium. Students gave positive responses about the learning community approach, including the friendship and support the cohort-based classes provided, increased opportunities to interact with peers, an understanding of the goals and structure of the program, and the diversity of research and career opportunities in environmental science. Survey results show that experiential learning and one-on-one mentoring improved students’ technical, professional, and soft skills; increased their awareness of and interest in solving environmental issues; and increased their likelihood to pursue a STEM career. The enrollment for the program increased steadily from 66 to 102 over four years. Over the same period, the retention rate nearly doubled from 43% to 80%, and the average time it took a student to graduate decreased by almost two years. Learning communities and mentored research experiences are transferable to other institutions.
Light-induced pitch transitions in photosensitive cholesteric liquid crystals: Effects of anchoring energy

description: We experimentally study how the cholesteric pitch, $P$, depends on the equilibrium one, $P_0$, in planar liquid crystal (LC) cells with both strong and semistrong anchoring conditions. The cholesteric phase was induced by dissolution in the nematic LC the right-handed chiral dopant 7-DHC (7-dehydrocholesterol, provitamin $D_3$) which transforms to left-handed tachysterol under the action of UV irradiation at the wavelength of 254 nm. By using the model of photoreaction kinetics we obtain dependencies of isomers concentrations and thus the equilibrium pitch on UV irradiation dose. The cholesteric pitch was measured as a function of irradiation time using the polarimetry method. In this method, the pitch is estimated from the experimental data on the irradiation time dependence of the ellipticity of light transmitted through the LC cells. It is found that the resulting dependence of the twist parameter, $2 D/P$ ($D$ is the cell thickness), on the free twisting number parameter, $2 D/P_0$, shows the jump-like behaviour and agrees well with the known theoretical results for the anchoring potential of the Rapini-Papoular form.

description: What is the extent to which college and university geoscience faculty report using education practices that contribute to more inclusive learning environments and engage a diverse population of students? In the 2016 National Geoscience Faculty Survey, faculty answered questions about their practices in a specific introductory or major course they had taught in the previous two years, and about how they share and learn about the content and methods used in their teaching. Based on factor analysis, 22 of the survey questions divided into four categories associated with inclusive teaching practices: geoscientist representations, curricular choices, learning strategies, and career pathways. The self-reported use of practices across these four categories varies greatly, with some used by as many as 71% of faculty respondents whereas others by only 8%. These data provide new information on the current state of teaching practices in the geosciences with regard to inclusive practices, and establish a baseline to which responses from future surveys may be compared. Univariate general modeling combined with ANOVA tests on the responses to the questions shows that education practices differ based on variables such as teaching style, communication with colleagues, years of teaching experience, faculty type, institution type, class size, and course type (introductory or major). These differences suggest opportunities for focused geoscience faculty development around education practices that support the success of a diverse population of undergraduate students and the enhancement of inclusive learning environments in the geosciences.

description: We use unitarity techniques to compute the two-loop non-planar corrections to the Sudakov form factor and the four-point amplitude in ABJM theory. We start by reconstructing non-planar integrals from two-particle cuts in three dimensions. This causes ambiguities, due to the one-loop four-point amplitude being subleading in dimensional regularization. We provide a prescription to circumvent them and show that it leads to the correct results, as checked against the recent Feynman diagram computation. For the amplitude we point out an alternative basis of integrals, including a non-planar double-box with a numerator inspired by color-kinematics duality. We reproduce the result using a combination thereof with the coefficients fixed by generalized unitarity. For BLG theory we propose that this gives the form of the amplitude satisfying color-kinematics duality. Finally, we compute the complete two-loop amplitude of three-dimensional N = 8 SYM, and the corresponding four-point amplitude in N = 16 supergravity as a double copy.

description: A sample of 43 Mississippi school counselors was surveyed regarding resources they use in career counseling, as well as resources they believe are effective in informing students about STEM careers, particularly the geosciences. Participants were asked a number of questions about their knowledge and perceptions about STEM majors and careers. The purpose of these questions was to determine what differences, if any, exist between perceptions about geoscience careers or majors (including geology, meteorology, and geoscience) and other STEM fields (including biology and engineering). As in previous studies, significant gaps were detected in participants’ perceptions about geology and meteorology careers compared to biology and engineering careers. These included perceptions about whether a career offers opportunities to help people, help the environment, or make a lot of money, and whether it is easy to find a job in that field. Participants’ self-assessed knowledge of geoscience careers was also lower than their self-assessed knowledge about biology and engineering careers. The results suggest that greater efforts are required to increase awareness of the geosciences at the high school level. Finally, participants indicated the best way to provide them information about geoscience careers was through guest speakers, followed by websites. To help determine how school counselors could help further efforts to enhance diversity in the geosciences, responses were explored based on the percentage of minority students at the participants’ schools. The results indicated few differences could be explained by school demographics.

description: Abstract The emotional experiences you have with a romantic partner shape how satisfied you are in your relationship. Engaging in attempts to make a romantic partner feel better is linked with better relationship outcomes. However, it is not yet clear which specific processes people use to regulate their partners’ emotions, nor which processes are most strongly linked with relationship satisfaction. In the current study of 277 individuals (55% female), we tested the extent to which eight extrinsic emotion regulation processes (expressive suppression, downward social comparison, humor, distraction, direct action, reappraisal, receptive listening, and valuing) predict relationship satisfaction. Six of the eight processes showed significant positive correlations with relationship satisfaction, with the strongest associations for valuing ( r  = .43), humor ( r  = .33), and receptive listening ( r  = .27). Relative weights were significant only for valuing, humor, and receptive listening, suggesting that these are the most important predictors of relationship satisfaction. Results are discussed in terms of the distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic regulation processes and the potential importance of motives for regulation.

description: We have studied quasi one-dimensional few-particle systems consisting of one to six ultracold fermionic atoms in two different spin states with attractive interactions. We probe the system by deforming the trapping potential and by observing the tunneling of particles out of the trap. For even particle numbers we observe a tunneling behavior which deviates from uncorrelated single-particle tunneling indicating the existence of pair correlations in the system. From the tunneling timescales we infer the differences in interaction energies of systems with different number of particles which show a strong odd-even effect, similar to the one observed for neutron separation experiments in nuclei.

description: Observations of the redshifted 21 cm line with upcoming radio telescopes promise to transform our understanding of the cosmic reionization. To unravel the underlying physical process, we investigate the 21 cm structures of three different ionizing sources, Population (Pop) III stars, the first galaxies, and the first quasars, by using radiative transfer simulations that include both ionization of neutral hydrogen and resonant scattering of Lya photons. We find that Pop III stars and quasars produce a smooth transition from an ionized and hot state to a neutral and cold one, owing to their hard spectral energy distribution with abundant ionizing photons, in contrast to the sharp transition in galaxies. Furthermore, Lya scattering plays a dominant role in producing the 21 cm signal as it determines the relation between hydrogen spin temperature and gas kinetic temperature. This effect, also called Wouthuysen-Field coupling, depends strongly on the ionizing source. It is the strongest around galaxies, where the spin temperature is highly coupled to that of the gas, resulting in extended absorption troughs in the 21 cm brightness temperature. On the other hand, in the case of Pop III stars, the 21 cm signal shows both emission and absorption regions around a small HII bubble. For quasars, a large emission region in the 21 cm signal is produced, and the absorption region decreases as the size of the HII bubble becomes large due to the limited traveling time of photons. We predict that future surveys from large radio arrays such as MWA, LOFAR and SKA may be able to detect the 21 cm signals of primordial galaxies and quasars, but not likely Pop III stars due to its small angular diameter.

description: Knowing when a physical system has reached sufficient size for its macroscopic properties to be well described by many-body theory is difficult. We investigate the crossover from few to many-body physics by studying quasi one-dimensional systems of ultracold atoms consisting of a single impurity interacting with an increasing number of identical fermions. We measure the interaction energy of such a system as a function of the number of majority atoms for different strengths of the interparticle interaction. As we increase the number of majority atoms one by one we observe the fast convergence of the normalized interaction energy towards a many-body limit calculated for a single impurity immersed in a Fermi sea of majority particles.

description: Metric Temporal Logic (MTL) and Timed Propositional Temporal Logic (TPTL) are prominent extensions of Linear Temporal Logic to specify properties about data languages. In this paper, we consider the class of data languages of non-monotonic data words over the natural numbers. We prove that, in this setting, TPTL is strictly more expressive than MTL. To this end, we introduce Ehrenfeucht-Fraisse (EF) games for MTL. Using EF games for MTL, we also prove that the MTL definability decision problem ("Given a TPTL-formula, is the language defined by this formula definable in MTL?") is undecidable. We also define EF games for TPTL, and we show the effect of various syntactic restrictions on the expressiveness of MTL and TPTL.

description: Поддержание энергетического гомеостаза организма, по современным данным, осуществляется при активном участии дофаминергических нейронов центральной нервной системы (ЦНС). Синтез и обмен дофамина (ДА) происходит как в головном мозге, так и в периферических тканях. Нарушение синтеза и метаболизма ДА рассматривается в качестве звена порочного круга, формирующегося при развитии индуцированного диетой ожирения. По современным данным, ряд эссенциальных и токсичных микроэлементов, таких как Cd, Al, As, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, активно участвует в обмене ДА в мозге, периферических органах и тканях. Одним из способов оценить эту взаимосвязь является сравнение изменений в микроэлементном статусе организма при потреблении гиперкалорийных рационов животными с нормальным и нарушенным транспортом ДА. В роли последних могут выступать животные с нокаутом гена транспортера ДА (DAT), осуществляющего реабсорбцию ДА с последующим запасанием в составе секреторных гранул. Цель работы – исследование в сравнительном аспекте содержания ряда эссенциальных и токсичных элементов в головном мозге, печени и почках крыс, различающихся по аллельным вариантам гена DAT, в условиях потребления сбалансированного и имеющего избыточную удельную энергетическую ценность рациона. Материал и методы. Исследования проводили на 30 самцах крыс нокаутной линии DAT-KO (гомозиготы DAT-/и гетерозиготы DAT+/-) возрастом 8–10 нед и 13 самцах крыс аутбредной линии Вистар (DAT+/+) того же возраста. Животные были разделены на 6 групп и получали на протяжении 62 дней полусинтетический рацион, содержащий эссенциальные элементы в составе солевой смеси, или высокожировой высокоуглеводный рацион (ВУВЖР) с 30% содержанием жира и 20% раствором фруктозы вместо питьевой воды. Содержание 16 микроэлементов (Fe, Mg, Cu, Mn, Co, Se, Zn, Cr, V, Cs, Ag, Al, Cd, As, Pb, Ni) в печени, почках и головном мозге крыс с нокаутом гена транспортера дофамина DAT: гомозигот (DAT-/-) и гетерозигот (DAT+/-), а также крыс «дикого типа» (DAT+/+) линии Вистар определяли методом масс-спектрометрии с индуктивно-связанной плазмой. Результаты и обсуждение. В печени нокаут DAT приводил к возрастанию содержания As, Cd, Co и Cs и снижению Fe; в почках – к повышению уровней Pb, As, Cd и Se, в головном мозге – к возрастанию содержания большинства изученных микроэлементов, включая Pb, As, Cs, Al и Cu. Заключение. На фоне потребления ВУВЖР влияние нокаута DAT на содержание ряда элементов было более выражено по сравнению с потреблением контрольного рациона. Выявленные изменения содержания микроэлементов у нокаутных по DAT крыс рассматриваются в аспекте влияния обмена ДА в ЦНС и в периферических тканях на статус микроэлементов.

description: Presented here is a study of a viscoelastic wave equation with supercritical source and damping terms. We employ the theory of monotone operators and nonlinear semigroups, combined with energy methods to establish the existence of a unique local weak solution. In addition, it is shown that the solution depends continuously on the initial data and is global provided the damping dominates the source in an appropriate sense.

description: Актуальность изучения псориатической болезни обусловлена недостаточной эффективностью существующих этиотропных и патогенетических методов лечения, что подтверждает факт необходимости поиска новых подходов в изучении псориаза, в том числе с позиции этиопатогенеза. В литературе имеются сведения о сочетании атопического дерматита и псориаза, что не исключает общность причин и механизмов, приводящих к повреждению кожного покрова. Цель работы – изучить и провести сравнительный анализ спектра сенсибилизации пациентов с псориазом и атопическим дерматитом к пищевым, пыльцевым и грибковым аллергенам. Материал и методы. Проведено проспективное исследование пациентов с псориазом (1-я группа, n=20) и атопическим дерматитом (2-я группа, n=20) в возрасте от 18 до 57 лет. Выполнено специфическое аллергологическое обследование (сбор аллергологического анамнеза, определение спектра сенсибилизации к пищевым, пыльцевым и грибковым аллергенам методом prick-тестирования). Статистическую обработку данных проводили методами вариационного анализа с использованием t-критерия для качественных признаков. Результаты и обсуждение. Статистически значимых различий сенсибилизации к аллергенам животного происхождения между обследованными группами не выявлено. В группе пациентов с псориазом сенсибилизация к рису и сое отмечена статистически значимо чаще в сравнении с группой пациентов с атопическим дерматитом: 33,3% (6/18) против 5,2% (1/19), р=0,03 и 66,7% (10/15) против 29,4% (5/17), р=0,04. Сенсибилизация к аллергенам пыльцы растений статистически значимо чаще выявлялась у пациентов с атопическим дерматитом, чем у пациентов с псориазом (72,5 против 54,4%, p=0,02). Отмечено, что в группе пациентов с псориазом в сравнении с группой пациентов с атопическим дерматитом чаще отмечена сенсибилизация к грибкам рода Candida albicans, Alternaria alternata, Penicillium notatum, однако различия не достигали уровня статистической значимости. Заключение. В проведенном исследовании определена сенсибилизация к пищевым, пыльцевым и грибковым аллергенам у пациентов не только с атопическим дерматитом, но и с псориазом. Так, при атопическом дерматите чаще определяется сенсибилизация к пищевым и пыльцевым аллергенам, а при псориазе – к пищевым и грибковым аллергенам. Предварительное prick-тестирование ориентирует в плане применения в дальнейшем других методов специфической аллергологической диагностики: элиминационных и провокационных тестов, а также назначения персонализированной терапии.

description: The ${}_{ΛΛ}^{\ \ 4}$H bound state and the $S$-wave hypertriton(${}_Λ^{ \, 3}$H)-$Λ$ scattering in spin singlet and triplet channels below the hypertriton breakup momentum scale are studied in halo/cluster effective field theory at leading order by treating the ${}_{ΛΛ}^{\ \ 4}$H system as a three-cluster ($Λ$-$Λ$-deuteron) system. In the spin singlet channel, the amplitude is insensitive to the cutoff parameter $Λ_c$ introduced in the integral equation, and we find that there is no bound state. In this case, the scattering length of the hypertriton-$Λ$ scattering is found to be $a_0^{} = 16.0\pm 3.0$ fm. In the spin triplet channel, however, the amplitude obtained by the coupled integral equations is sensitive to $Λ_c$, and we introduce the three-body contact interaction $g_1^{} (Λ_c)$. After phenomenologically fixing $g_1^{} (Λ_c)$, we find that the correlation between the two-$Λ$ separation energy $B_{ΛΛ}$ from the $_{ΛΛ}^{\ \ 4}$H bound state and the scattering length $a_{ΛΛ}^{}$ of the $S$-wave $Λ$-$Λ$ scattering is significantly sensitive to the value of $Λ_c$.

description: Проблема соединительнотканной дисплазии в настоящее время особенно актуальна в связи со значительным увеличением количества лиц с характерными признаками отклонений в строении соединительной ткани. Возникающий в процессе онтогенеза недостаток отдельных микронутриентов в организме может определять высокий риск ухудшения гомеостаза соединительной ткани. В последнее время появились данные об определяющей роли дефицита магния в прогрессировании этого заболевания. Цель исследования – обоснование необходимости коррекции содержания магния в организме лиц с соединительнотканной дисплазией на основании изучения патогенетического значения дефицита магния при данной патологии. Материал и методы. Использовали электронные ресурсы порталов PubMedNCBI, MEDLINE, Научной электронной библиотеки eLIBRARY.RU, КиберЛенинки и Академии Google. Результаты и обсуждение. Анализ полученных данных позволил выделить принципиально новые положения об основных механизмах влияния магния на метаболизм всех компонентов соединительной ткани. Доказано, что дефицит магния является предиктором ухудшения гомеостаза соединительной ткани, увеличения количества диспластических признаков и прогредиентного нарастания степени их выраженности. Патогенетически обосновано назначение пациентам с дисплазией соединительной ткани сбалансированной диеты, включающей продукты с высоким содержанием магния, с учетом рекомендуемой суточной нормы его потребления в зависимости от возраста пациентов. Заключение. Ежедневное введение в рацион суточной нормы магния будет способствовать повышению механических свойств и функциональности соединительной ткани и должно быть рекомендовано при дисплазии соединительной ткани для профилактики развития осложнений, сохранения качества жизни и улучшения прогноза при данном заболевании.
