description: Genetic studies of complex diseases often collect multiple phenotypes relevant to the disorders. As these phenotypes can be correlated and share common genetic mechanisms, jointly analyzing these traits may bring more power to detect genes influencing individual or multiple phenotypes. Given the advancement brought by the multivariate phenotype approaches and the multimarker kernel machine regression, we construct a multivariate regression based on kernel machine to facilitate the joint evaluation of multimarker effects on multiple phenotypes. The kernel machine serves as a powerful dimension-reduction tool to capture complex effects among markers. The multivariate framework incorporates the potentially correlated multi-dimensional phenotypic information and accommodates common or different environmental covariates for each trait. We derive the multivariate kernel machine test based on a score-like statistic, and conduct simulations to evaluate the validity and efficacy of the method. We also study the performance of the commonly adapted strategies for kernel machine analysis on multiple phenotypes, including the multiple univariate kernel machine tests with original phenotypes or with their principal components. Our results suggest that none of these approaches has the uniformly best power, and the optimal test depends on the magnitude of the phenotype correlation and the effect patterns. However, the multivariate test retains to be a reasonable approach when the multiple phenotypes have none or mild correlations, and gives the best power once the correlation becomes stronger or when there exist genes that affect more than one phenotype. We illustrate the utility of the multivariate kernel machine method through the CATIE antibody study.

description: We provide a scheme for inferring causal relations from uncontrolled statistical data based on tools from computational algebraic geometry, in particular, the computation of Groebner bases. We focus on causal structures containing just two observed variables, each of which is binary. We consider the consequences of imposing different restrictions on the number and cardinality of latent variables and of assuming different functional dependences of the observed variables on the latent ones (in particular, the noise need not be additive). We provide an inductive scheme for classifying functional causal structures into distinct observational equivalence classes. For each observational equivalence class, we provide a procedure for deriving constraints on the joint distribution that are necessary and sufficient conditions for it to arise from a model in that class. We also demonstrate how this sort of approach provides a means of determining which causal parameters are identifiable and how to solve for these. Prospects for expanding the scope of our scheme, in particular to the problem of quantum causal inference, are also discussed.

description: This paper presents a projection regression model (PRM) to assess the relationship between a multivariate phenotype and a set of covariates, such as a genetic marker, age and gender. In the existing literature, a standard statistical approach to this problem is to fit a multivariate linear model to the multivariate phenotype and then use Hotelling’s T2 to test hypotheses of interest. An alternative approach is to fit a simple linear model and test hypotheses for each individual phenotype and then correct for multiplicity. However, even when the dimension of the multivariate phenotype is relatively small, say 5, such standard approaches can suffer from the issue of low statistical power in detecting the association between the multivariate phenotype and the covariates. The PRM generalizes a statistical method based on the principal component of heritability for association analysis in genetic studies of complex multivariate phenotypes. The key components of the PRM include an estimation procedure for extracting several principal directions of multivariate phenotypes relating to covariates and a test procedure based on wild-bootstrap method for testing for the association between the weighted multivariate phenotype and explanatory variables. Simulation studies and an imaging genetic dataset are used to examine the finite sample performance of the PRM.

description: Inflation has long been thought as the best way of producing primordial large-scale magnetic fields. To achieve fields strong enough to seed the galactic dynamo, most of the mechanisms operate outside conventional electromagnetic theory. The latter is typically restored after the end of the de Sitter phase. Breaking away from standard electromagnetism can lead to substantially stronger magnetic fields by the end of inflation, thus compensating for the their subsequent adiabatic depletion. We argue that the drastic magnetic enhancement during the de Sitter era may no longer be necessary because, contrary to the widespread perception, superhorizon-sized magnetic fields decay at a slower pace after inflation. The principle behind this claim is causality, which confines the post-inflationary electric currents inside the horizon. Without the currents there can be no magnetic-flux freezing on super-Hubble lengths. There, the magnetic decay-rate slows down, thus making it much easier to produce primordial fields of astrophysical interest. To quantify this qualitative statement, one can start from the current galactic-dynamo requirements and `reverse engineer' the magnetic strengths needed at the end of inflation, in order to produce astrophysically relevant residual seeds today. Our results suggest that, depending on the magnetic scale, mechanisms of inflationary magnetogenesis generating fields stronger than $10^{17}$ G by the end of the de Sitter phase, could successfully seed the galactic dynamo at present.

description: Significance testing one SNP at a time has proven useful for identifying genomic regions that harbor variants affecting human disease. But after an initial genome scan has identified a "hit region" of association, single-locus approaches can falter. Local linkage disequilibrium (LD) can make both the number of underlying true signals and their identities ambiguous. Simultaneous modeling of multiple loci should help. However, it is typically applied ad hoc: conditioning on the top SNPs, with limited exploration of the model space and no assessment of how sensitive model choice was to sampling variability. Formal alternatives exist but are seldom used. Bayesian variable selection is coherent but requires specifying a full joint model, including priors on parameters and the model space. Penalized regression methods (e.g., LASSO) appear promising but require calibration, and, once calibrated, lead to a choice of SNPs that can be misleadingly decisive. We present a general method for characterizing uncertainty in model choice that is tailored to reprioritizing SNPs within a hit region under strong LD. Our method, LASSO local automatic regularization resample model averaging (LLARRMA), combines LASSO shrinkage with resample model averaging and multiple imputation, estimating for each SNP the probability that it would be included in a multi-SNP model in alternative realizations of the data. We apply LLARRMA to simulations based on case-control genome-wide association studies data, and find that when there are several causal loci and strong LD, LLARRMA identifies a set of candidates that is enriched for true signals relative to single locus analysis and to the recently proposed method of Stability Selection.

description: Genetic association studies often collect data on multiple traits that are correlated. Discovery of genetic variants influencing multiple traits can lead to better understanding of the etiology of complex human diseases. Conventional univariate association tests may miss variants that have weak or moderate effects on individual traits. We propose several multivariate test statistics to complement univariate tests. Our framework covers both studies of unrelated individuals and family studies and allows any type/mixture of traits. We relate the marginal distributions of multivariate traits to genetic variants and covariates through generalized linear models without modeling the dependence among the traits or family members. We construct score-type statistics, which are computationally fast and numerically stable even in the presence of covariates and which can be combined efficiently across studies with different designs and arbitrary patterns of missing data. We compare the power of the test statistics both theoretically and empirically. We provide a strategy to determine genome-wide significance that properly accounts for the linkage disequilibrium (LD) of genetic variants. The application of the new methods to the meta-analysis of five major cardiovascular cohort studies identifies a new locus (HSCB) that is pleiotropic for the four traits analyzed.

description: Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) genes (CHRNA5/CHRNA3/CHRNB4) have been reproducibly associated with nicotine dependence, smoking behaviors, and lung cancer risk. Of the few reports that have focused on early smoking behaviors, association results have been mixed. This meta-analysis examines early smoking phenotypes and SNPs in the gene cluster to determine: (1) whether the most robust association signal in this region (rs16969968) for other smoking behaviors is also associated with early behaviors, and/or (2) if additional statistically independent signals are important in early smoking. We focused on two phenotypes: age of tobacco initiation (AOI) and age of first regular tobacco use (AOS). This study included 56,034 subjects (41 groups) spanning nine countries and evaluated five SNPs including rs1948, rs16969968, rs578776, rs588765, and rs684513. Each dataset was analyzed using a centrally generated script. Meta-analyses were conducted from summary statistics. AOS yielded significant associations with SNPs rs578776 (beta = 0.02, P = 0.004), rs1948 (beta = 0.023, P = 0.018), and rs684513 (beta = 0.032, P = 0.017), indicating protective effects. There were no significant associations for the AOI phenotype. Importantly, rs16969968, the most replicated signal in this region for nicotine dependence, cigarettes per day, and cotinine levels, was not associated with AOI (P = 0.59) or AOS (P = 0.92). These results provide important insight into the complexity of smoking behavior phenotypes, and suggest that association signals in the CHRNA5/A3/B4 gene cluster affecting early smoking behaviors may be different from those affecting the mature nicotine dependence phenotype.

description: In search of the past: the phenomenon of the Russian ballet in exile in the 20th century The paper investigates the phenomenon of the Russian ballet in exile in the twentieth century. It highlights that the art of the ballet is a little studied part of emigrational artistic culture, since there are still no records of the Russian ballet in exile and many texts, including personal archives, have not yet been studied. The paper attempts to prove that the Russian ballet art has successfully assimilated with the European culture by virtue of an outstanding activist Sergei Diaghilev and his ‘Russian Seasons’. Diaghilev worked and collaborated with such world-renowned masters of ballet as Pavlova A., Karsavina T., Kšesinskaja M., Preobrajenska O., Nižinskij V., Massine L., Lifar S. and others. Many of them have made a great leap into the future of the ballet, discovering new performance techniques. The innovative scenarios of Jean Cocteau, as well as the designs of a cubist painter Pablo Picasso for the ‘Russian Seasons’ ballets, have all contributed to the changes matching the spirit of the age.

description: Joint testing for the cumulative effect of multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms grouped on the basis of prior biological knowledge has become a popular and powerful strategy for the analysis of large scale genetic association studies. The kernel machine (KM) testing framework is a useful approach that has been proposed for testing associations between multiple genetic variants and many different types of complex traits by comparing pairwise similarity in phenotype between subjects to pairwise similarity in genotype, with similarity in genotype defined via a kernel function. An advantage of the KM framework is its flexibility: choosing different kernel functions allows for different assumptions concerning the underlying model and can allow for improved power. In practice, it is difficult to know which kernel to use a priori since this depends on the unknown underlying trait architecture and selecting the kernel which gives the lowest p-value can lead to inflated type I error. Therefore, we propose practical strategies for KM testing when multiple candidate kernels are present based on constructing composite kernels and based on efficient perturbation procedures. We demonstrate through simulations and real data applications that the procedures protect the type I error rate and can lead to substantially improved power over poor choices of kernels and only modest differences in power versus using the best candidate kernel.

description: Does multicompetence foster creativity? The case of accomplished multicompetent foreign language learners The purpose of this study was to analyse personality factors which can indicate creative abilities in 44 accomplished multicompetent foreign language learners. Four factors were tested: Openness to Experience, Creative Personality, Second Language Tolerance of Ambiguity, and Need for Autonomy. The analysis revealed that the factors of Openness to Experience, Creative Personality and Need for Autonomy are moderately high as compared to the norms, whereas Second Language Tolerance of Ambiguity is average. These results suggest that people who are creative, non-standard, independent and open to new experience can be successful foreign language learners. The results may contribute to the understanding of the relationship between multicompetence, creativity, and success in learning a foreign language.

description: Hip-hop subculture and its language. Language analysis on the example of Advanced Chemistry songs This paper presents a picture of youth culture using the language of hip-hop to fight for its own identity. At the beginning, youth culture as a whole is characterized, and then its elements: scene, code, identity and language. Primarily, the hip-hop subculture is emphasized, especially its language. The etymology of the word ‘hip-hop’ is given, as well as a brief outline of the origins of the subculture. The subject of the cultural and linguistic analysis is a song entitled Fremd im eigenen Land by a group from Heidelberg called Advanced Chemistry. The song takes the voice of young people who, in the language of rap, try to draw attention to the serious problems of immigrants in Germany, especially their identity. The analysis of the song also reveals its linguistic elements, along with examples at the structural, grammatical, and lexical level.

In this work we argue that this similarity could extend beyond hydrodynamics to transient dynamics through the presence of non-hydrodynamic modes. We review non-hydrodynamic modes in kinetic theory and gauge/gravity duality and discuss their signatures in trapped Fermi gases close to unitarity. Reanalyzing previously published experimental data, we find hints of non-hydrodynamic modes in cold Fermi gases in two and three dimensions.

Creators: name: Ostanov, Shuhrat
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: This article examines the socio-psychological characteristics of adolescents with destructive behavior, the specifics of aggressive behavior in adolescence, as well as a system of actions that lead destructive behavior in violation of accepted norms in society and manifest themselves in the form of unbalanced mental processes, maladaptation, violations of the process of self-realization or deviations in moral or aesthetic terms. We are talking about the study of factors influencing the destructive behavior of adolescents and young people.

Changes in socio-political lexis of the contemporary Russian language – borrowings
Creators: name: Michaluk, Maryna
Publisher: name: Polilog. Studia Neofilologiczne
Year: 2015

description: Changes in socio-political lexis of the contemporary Russian language – borrowings The article presents changes within socio-political lexis of the contemporary Russian language in the context of borrowings. The text characterizes the linguistic situation in Russia at the turn of the 21st century and presents causes of language borrowings. Among them general causes, common in different languages, were distinguished, and also characteristics specific for Russia only were included. The text also embraces the classification of socio-political lexis on the basis of spheres of application, which was illustrated with numerous examples. The examples are divided into the so-called old borrowings and new borrowings. The first group embraces the lexemes which were included into the language long time ago and today are not recognized as foreign elements. The other group includes the words which have appeared relatively recently.

description: Imputation in admixed populations is an important problem but challenging due to the complex linkage disequilibrium (LD) pattern. The emergence of large reference panels such as that from the 1,000 Genomes Project enables more accurate imputation in general, and in particular for admixed populations and for uncommon variants. To efficiently benefit from these large reference panels, one key issue to consider in modern genotype imputation framework is the selection of effective reference panels. In this work, we consider a number of methods for effective reference panel construction inside a hidden Markov model and specific to each target individual. These methods fall into two categories: identity-by-state (IBS) based and ancestry-weighted approach. We evaluated the performance on individuals from recently admixed populations. Our target samples include 8,421 African Americans and 3,587 Hispanic Americans from the Women’s Health Initiative, which allow assessment of imputation quality for uncommon variants. Our experiments include both large and small reference panels; large, medium, and small target samples; and in genome regions of varying levels of LD. We also include BEAGLE and IMPUTE2 for comparison. Experiment results with large reference panel suggest that our novel piecewise IBS method yields consistently higher imputation quality than other methods/software. The advantage is particularly noteworthy among uncommon variants where we observe up to 5.1% information gain with the difference being highly significant (Wilcoxon signed rank test P-value < 0.0001). Our work is the first that considers various sensible approaches for imputation in admixed populations and presents a comprehensive comparison.
Symmetry, distorted bandstructure, and spin-orbit coupling of (group-III) metal-monochalcogenide monolayers

description: The electronic structure of (group-III) metal-monochalcogenide monolayers exhibits many unusual features. Some, such as the unusually distorted upper valence band dispersion we describe as a 'caldera', are primarily the result of purely orbital interactions. Others, including spin splitting and wavefunction spin-mixing, are directly driven by spin-orbit coupling. We employ elementary group theory to explain the origins of these properties, and use a tight-binding model to calculate the phenomena enabled by them, such as band-edge carrier effective g-factors, optical absorption spectrum, conduction electron spin orientation, and a relaxation-induced upper valence band population inversion and spin polarization mechanism.

Testing Genetic Association With Rare Variants in Admixed Populations: Rare Variant Analysis in Admixed Populations

description: Recent studies suggest that rare variants play an important role in the etiology of many traits. Although a number of methods have been developed for genetic association analysis of rare variants, they all assume a relatively homogeneous population under study. Such an assumption may not be valid for samples collected from admixed populations such as African Americans and Hispanic Americans as there is a great extent of local variation in ancestry in these populations. To ensure valid and more powerful rare variant association tests performed in admixed populations, we have developed a local ancestry-based weighted dosage test, which is able to take into account local ancestry of rare alleles, uncertainties in rare variant imputation when imputed data are included, and the direction of effect that rare variants exert on phenotypic outcome. We used simulated sequence data to show that our proposed test has controlled type I error rates, whereas naïve application of existing rare variants tests and tests that adjust for global ancestry lead to inflated type I error rates. We showed that our test has higher power than tests without proper adjustment of ancestry. We also applied the proposed method to a candidate gene study on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Our results suggest that it is important to appropriately control for potential population stratification induced by local ancestry difference in the analysis of rare variants in admixed populations.

The Case-Only Test for Gene-Environment Interaction is Not Uniformly Powerful: An Empirical Example: Gene-Environment Interaction

description: The case-only test has been proposed as a more powerful approach to detect gene-environment (G×E) interactions. This approach assumes that the genetic and environmental factors are independent. While it is well known that Type I error rate will increase if this assumption is violated, it is less widely appreciated that gene-environment correlation can also lead to power loss. We illustrate this phenomenon by comparing the performance of the case-only test to other approaches to detect G×E interactions in a genome-wide association study of esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC) in Chinese populations. Some of these approaches do not use information on the correlation between exposure and genotype (standard logistic regression), while others seek to use this information in a robust fashion to boost power without increasing Type I error (two-step, empirical Bayes and cocktail methods). G×E interactions were identified involving drinking status and two regions containing genes in the alcohol metabolism pathway, 4q23 and 12q24. Although the case-only test yielded the most significant tests of G×E interaction in the 4q23 region, the case-only test failed to identify significant interactions in the 12q24 region which were readily identified using other approaches. The low power of the case-only test in the 12q24 region is likely due to the strong inverse association between the SNPs in this region and drinking status. This example underscores the need to consider multiple approaches to detect gene-environment interactions, as different tests are more or less sensitive to different alternative hypotheses and violations of the gene-environment independence assumption.
