Mechanisms of toxicity

description: Protein deposition in the form of amyloid fibrils is the hallmark of more than 40 human pathologies, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). Misfolded protein oligomers formed as intermediates during the aggregation process have been strongly implicated in the onset and progression of these diseases. In this thesis, I describe our efforts to uncover molecular agents that can reduce the toxicity caused by protein aggregation via targeting the generation, the physiochemical properties or the membrane affinity of oligomeric species. We employed an integrative approach combining in vitro techniques, including chemical kinetics, atomic force microscopy, and biophysical measurements, and in vivo methods, including neuroblastoma cells and C. elegans models of AD and PD, to identify a range of small molecules and antibodies that can suppress the toxicity related to protein aggregation through a variety of mechanisms. In Chapter 3, we show that the deleterious effects of protein aggregation can be suppressed in AD and PD worms by interfering with the aggregation rates of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) and the α-synuclein protein (αS). In Chapter 4, we resolve the mechanism of action for a molecule that enhances the rate of Aβ42 aggregation in AD worms with the result that toxicity is reduced, and find that it potentiates the secondary nucleation microscopic step in vitro. In Chapter 5, we characterize molecules and antibodies that modify the physiochemical properties and self-association of oligomers comprised of several proteins into clusters with reduced diffusibility. In Chapter 6, we classify a family of molecules that protect the cell by displacing several types of oligomeric species from the membrane through a generic mechanism. These results demonstrate strategies by which one can target the aggregation process to alter its resulting toxicity, provide insight into modifying the properties of the most deleterious species associated with protein aggregation and suggest that the protection of the cell from the oligomer-induced cytotoxicity associated with numerous protein misfolding diseases is a promising strategy to combat protein misfolding diseases.

description: Due to growing expectations for quality and safety of food products and an increasing demand for more transparent food supply chains, pork production faces new challenges. In the course of this development, chain-wide communication has gained importance in agribusiness. Nonetheless, existing approaches focus primarily on information supply, whereas the use of information for managerial decision-making has only rarely been highlighted. This research gap is addressed in this paper on the basis of a large-scale empirical study of animal health management on Ger-man pig farms. By applying factor and multinomial logistic regression analyses, this study identifies determinants of the use of information as well as ways to improve information use on farms. It shows that factors like intrinsic motivation and farmer’s competence have a significant influence on information use.

description: This paper compares domestic dairy policies In both the United States (US) and the European Community (EC) and examines the Impact of these policies on each respective dairy Industry in order to explore domestic policy Interdependence. The EC and the US have Similar goals of improving farm income and use similar price support policies to achieve these goals These policies have historically encouraged overproduction, generated surpluses and government stocks, and resulted in large government expenditures. Both have followed a mixed surplus disposal strategy with one key difference--the EC has used export subsidies to dispose of part of Its surplus on the world market. In the mid 1980s, both the US and the EC took strong action to confront these problems. The EC's marketing quota and commitment to reducing its stockpiles ultimately affected the world market as its exports fell in 1989. As a result, US stocks virtually disappeared, US prices Increased substantially and US surplus disposal programs ended By recognizing the policy linkage of EC domestic policy through the international market on US stockpiles, policymakers can choose policy Instruments more precisely.

Identifying strategies to inform interventions for the secondary prevention of stroke in UK primary care

medication adherence

description: Stroke is a significant contributor to the global burden of disease in adults. With the risk of recurrent stroke high, preventative medicines aimed at risk factor reduction are the method of choice for addressing the challenge of increased morbidity and mortality and improving patient outcomes. Research in stroke has shown that adherence to medication is problematic and survivors face considerable practical and physical barriers to taking prescribed medicines. Understanding these challenges can inform the development of strategies to improve medication taking behaviour through delivery of interventions in the primary care setting. This thesis aims to identify potential strategies to inform interventions to improve medication taking in stroke. The research: identified key barriers and facilitators of medication adherence for the secondary prevention of stroke – firstly from within the primary care setting and then from the perspective of an online stroke forum; explored the appropriateness of the online forum as a method of data collection for conducting qualitative research compared with a traditional qualitative interview approach; investigated medication taking among community stroke survivors to characterise patients who receive help with medicines and estimate the proportion who have unmet needs and miss medicines; and examined attitudes from across the stroke spectrum towards a novel approach to medication taking for secondary prevention (i.e. fixed-dose combination polypill). Findings showed that survivors face considerable barriers to medicine taking, but that facilitators, particularly the caregiver role, can encourage good medication taking practice. The online forum has potential as a source of data to understand stroke survivors’ behaviour, and a novel strategy to taking stroke medicines has promise. These findings enhance current thinking around medicine taking behaviour in stroke and can inform the development of effective interventions to improve medication taking practices and address nonadherence among stroke survivors. Implications for clinical practice are discussed, and recommendations are provided for future research.

description: We describe the algorithm for selecting quasar candidates for optical spectroscopy in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Quasar candidates are selected via their non-stellar colors in "ugriz" broad-band photometry, and by matching unresolved sources to the FIRST radio catalogs. The automated algorithm is sensitive to quasars at all redshifts lower than z=5.8. Extended sources are also targeted as low-redshift quasar candidates in order to investigate the evolution of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) at the faint end of the luminosity function. Nearly 95% of previously known quasars are recovered (based on 1540 quasars in 446 square degrees). The overall completeness, estimated from simulated quasars, is expected to be over 90%, whereas the overall efficiency (quasars:quasar candidates) is better than 65%. The selection algorithm targets ultraviolet excess quasars to i^*=19.1 and higher-redshift (z>3) quasars to i^*=20.2, yielding approximately 18 candidates per square degree. In addition to selecting ``normal'' quasars, the design of the algorithm makes it sensitive to atypical AGN such as Broad Absorption Line quasars and heavily reddened quasars.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit den CO2-Emissionen eines Dezernats der TU Darmstadt im Jahr 2019. Hierzu wird das Greenhouse Gas Protocol verwendet. In die Bilanzierung fließen verschiedene Emissionsfaktoren, wie beispielsweise der Verbrauch von Strom und Wärme, der Pendelweg der Mitarbeitende sowie Dienstreisen und Verbrauch von Papier und IT-Geräten ein. Um die Emissionsfaktoren präzise zu identifizieren werden Umfragen zu der Arbeitsweise und der Mobilität innerhalb des Dezernats V an alle Mitarbeitende versendet und durchgeführt. Durch Mailkontakt mit den zuständigen Mitarbeitenden des Dezernats V und einigen Vor-Ort-Begehungen können weitere Emissionsfaktoren ermittelt werden. Fehlende Informationen werden abschließend so genau wie möglich abgeschätzt. Mit Hilfe einer Korrelationsmatrix werden aus den Umfrageergebnissen Abhängigkeiten identifiziert. Durch entsprechende Analysen können zudem Key Performance Indicator bestimmt werden. Diese können als Grundlage für die effiziente Erstellung zukünftiger CO2-Bilanzen genutzt werden. Im Jahr 2019 hat das gesamte Dezernat im Durchschnitt 195,751 kg CO2 eq ausgestoßen. Das Pendeln der Mitarbeitenden stellt mit 77,187 kg CO2 eq den anteilsmäßig größten Emissionsausstoß dar. An zweiter und dritter Stelle stehen die Emissionen aus Fernwärme mit 46,314 kg CO2 eq und Strom mit 39,513 kg CO2 eq. Der zweite Aspekt dieser Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit potenziellen Maßnahmen, um die CO2-Emissionen am Dezernat V zu senken. Die Mitarbeitenden des Dezernats V können in einer zweiten Umfrage die vorgestellten Maßnahmen bezüglich ihrer Umsetzbarkeit im Arbeitsalltag am Dezernat bewerten.

description: This research has explored the business model and business model innovation in the context of the healthy food venture (HFV). The HFV is defined as an organised initiative that aims to improve people’s health by encouraging healthy food consumption. This research has grown out of the need to find new ways of tackling the public health issues that stem from the way food is currently produced and consumed. Scholars increasingly suggest that business model innovation helps business practitioners to achieve specific value outcomes. Thought leaders increasingly call for new business models to solve the health problems stemming from the food system. However, the literature fails to offer theory and practical guidance about how to design and manage the business models of HFVs. The research seeks to answer two research questions: 1) what are the challenges faced by HFVs? and 2) how do HFVs innovate their business models? The purpose of this research is to help HFVs create multiple (both social and economic) value outcomes. One objective of the research is to contribute to the knowledge about healthy food intervention and more specifically, healthy food intervention through business models. Another objective of the research is to contribute to practice and offer practitioners tools that help them to operate successful HFVs. The research questions and objectives aligned with a qualitative approach. The researcher answered the research questions by studying a sample of HFVs using action research, autoethnography and traditional case study methodologies. The research has produced specific insights and tools that can help HFV practitioners and scholars. The insights highlight the multiplicity of value that is embedded within food. Its value richness creates both opportunities and challenges for HFVs. The research has developed a context-specific business model framework—the Business Model Blossom (BMB), and has also led to the development of a business model innovation language that complements the Business Model Blossom—the Negative Value Diagnostics (NVDs). Besides these specific insights and tools, the research has challenged the current business model literature as to the precision of the business model and business model innovation concepts. It has created future research opportunities for implementing and refining the Business Model Blossom and Negative Value Diagnostics with HFV practitioners, as well as practitioners from other industries.

description: There have been decades of attempts to evolve or revolutionise the traditional financial system, but not all such efforts have been transformative or even successful. From Chaum’s proposals in the 1980s for private payment systems to micropayments, previous attempts failed to take off for a variety of reasons, including non-existing markets, or issues pertaining to usability, scalability and performance, resilience against failure, and complexity of protocols. Towards creating more resilient payment systems, we investigated issues related to security engineering in general, and payment systems in particular. We identified that network coverage, central points of failure, and attacks may cripple system performance. The premise of our research is that offline capabilities are required to produce resilience in critical systems. We focus on issues related to network problems and attacks, system resilience, and scalability by introducing the ability to process payments offline without relying on the availability of network coverage; a lack of network coverage renders some payment services unusable for their customers. Decentralising payment verification, and outsourcing some operations to users, alleviates the burden of contacting centralised systems to process every transaction. Our secondary goal is to minimise the cost of providing payment systems, so providers can cut transaction fees. Moreover, by decentralising payment verification that can be performed offline, we increase system resilience, and seamlessly maintain offline operations until a system is back online. We also use tamper-resistant hardware to tackle usability issues, by minimising cognitive overhead and helping users to correctly handle critical data, minimising the risks of data theft and tampering. We apply our research towards extending financial inclusion efforts, since the issues discussed above must be solved to extend mobile payments to the poorest demographics. More research is needed to integrate online payments, offline payments, and delay-tolerant networking. This research extends and enhances not only payment systems, but other electronically-enabled services from pay-as-you-go solar panels to agricultural subsidies and payments from aid donors. We hope that this thesis is helpful for researchers, protocol designers, and policy makers interested in creating resilient payment systems by assisting them in financial inclusion efforts.

description: We study the effects of a dark energy component with equation of state p=w rho with constant w >= -1 on the formation of Cold Dark Matter (CDM) haloes. We find two main effects: first, haloes form earlier as w increases, and second, the amplitude of the dark-matter power spectrum gets reduced in order to remain compatible with the large scale Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies. These effects counteract. Using recipes derived from numerical simulations, we show that haloes are expected to be up to ~ 50% more concentrated in CDM models with quintessence compared to Lambda-CDM models, the maximum increase being reached for w ~ -0.6. For larger w, the amplitude of the power spectrum decreases rapidly and makes expected halo concentrations drop. Halo detections through weak gravitational lensing are highly sensitive to halo concentrations. We show that weak-lensing halo counts with the aperture-mass technique can increase by a factor of ~ 2 as w is increased from -1 to -0.6, offering a new method for constraining the nature of dark energy.

description: We demonstrate the emergence of selective $k$-photon interactions in the strong and ultrastrong coupling regimes of the quantum Rabi model with a Stark coupling term. In particular, we show that the interplay between the rotating and counter-rotating terms produces multi-photon interactions whose resonance frequencies depend, due to the Stark term, on the state of the bosonic mode. We develop an analytical framework to explain these $k$-photon interactions by using time-dependent perturbation theory. Finally, we propose a method to achieve the quantum simulation of the quantum Rabi model with a Stark term by using the internal and vibrational degrees of freedom of a trapped ion, and demonstrate its performance with numerical simulations considering realistic physical parameters.

Calculation of pure dephasing for excitons in quantum dots

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)

description: Pure dephasing of an exciton in a small quantum dot by optical and acoustic phonons is calculated using the ``independent boson model''. Considering the case of zero temperature the dephasing is shown to be only partial which manifests itself in the polarization decaying to a finite value. Typical dephasing times can be assigned even though the spectra exhibits strongly non-Lorentzian line shapes. We show that the dephasing from LO phonon scattering, occurs on a much larger time scale than that of dephasing due to acoustic phonons which for low temperatures are also a more efficient dephasing mechanism. The typical dephasing time is shown to strongly depend on the quantum dot size whereas the electron phonon ``coupling strength'' and external electric fields tend mostly to effect the residual coherence. The relevance of the dephasing times for current quantum information processing implementation schemes in quantum dots is discussed.

We also show that the abelian projection on the lattice is determined up to terms O(a^2) (a = lattice spacing).

description: We analyze the properties of deuteron-like structures in infinite, correlated nuclear matter, described by a realistic hamiltonian containing the Urbana $v_{14}$ two-nucleon and the Urbana TNI many-body potentials. The distribution of neutron-proton pairs, carrying the deuteron quantum numbers, is obtained as a function of the total momentum by computing the overlap between the nuclear matter in its ground state and the deuteron wave functions in correlated basis functions theory. We study the differences between the S- and D-wave components of the deuteron and those of the deuteron-like pair in the nuclear medium. The total number of deuteron type pairs is computed and compared with the predictions of Levinger's quasideuteron model. The resulting Levinger's factor in nuclear matter at equilibrium densityis 11.63. We use the local density approximation to estimate the Levinger's factor for heavy nuclei, obtaining results which are consistent with the available experimental data from photoreactions.

description: The starburst galaxies M82 and NGC253 have been proposed as the primary sources of cosmic rays with energies above $10^{18.7}$ eV. For energies $\agt 10^{20.3}$ eV the model predicts strong anisotropies. We calculate the probabilities that the latter can be due to chance occurrence. For the highest energy cosmic ray events in this energy region, we find that the observed directionality has less than 1% probability of occurring due to random fluctuations. Moreover, during the first 5 years of operation at Auger, the observation of even half the predicted anisotropy has a probability of less than $10^{-5}$ to occur by chance fluctuation. Thus, this model can be subject to test at very small cost to the Auger priors budget and, whatever the outcome of that test, valuable information on the Galactic magnetic field will be obtained.

description: The direct food subsidy is an important agricultural subsidy policy under current conditions, more efficient than grain price protection policy and other policies, and it is of great importance to the agricultural development, but this policy will not meet the interests of society in the long run. In this paper, we make an empirical study with the direct food subsidy policy in Shandong Province as an example, focusing on the analysis of the efficiency of policy implementation in different regions. Study suggests that direct food subsidy has made some achievements, but there are some problems in practice, such as low standard for direct food subsidy policy, less subsidy varieties, generally low efficiency of direct food subsidy policy, lack of unified policy implementation, serious waste of money and inefficient supervision during the subsidy policy implementation process. In order to improve the efficiency of direct food subsidy, it is necessary to raise standard for subsidy, and expand the scope of subsidy varieties; unify the policy, and make the policy suit local circumstances; improve the subsidy mechanism, regulate government behavior, and strengthen supervision.
Pharmacopornographic Subjectivity in the Work of Paul B. Preciado

Subjects: Gender

Pornography

description: This thesis examines ‘pharmacopornographic’ subjectivity in the work of contemporary Spanish philosopher, Paul B. Preciado, and represents the first extended study of his work. In Preciado’s writing, ‘pharmacopornographic’ describes the entwined influence and dominance of the pharmaceutical and pornographic industries, and the thesis analyses how they produce ‘pharmacopornographic’ subjects. This thesis explores Preciado’s writing on gender, sexuality, pornography, drugs and power between 2002 and 2014 and articulates an emergent trans-feminism. This research analyses how pharmacological and pornographic industries affect the design and production of genders and subjectivities. The thesis further refines Preciado’s assertion that contemporary, ‘pharmacopornographic’ regimes of power produce subjects rather than objects, or people, rather than things. Ultimately, this research is concerned with understanding the production of pharmacologically-determined subjectivity. The thesis articulates various subject positions, as a means of theorising pharmacopornographic subjectivity: ‘The Voyeur’, ‘The Sex Worker’, ‘The Biodrag King’ and ‘The Junkie’. These subject-position chapters are prefaced with a chapter exploring theoretical frameworks used to analyse Preciado’s work, and the thesis concludes with a chapter on accelerationism and the microprosthetic scale of Testo Junkie.

title: The Development and Running of an Italian Birth Cohort for an In-Depth Evaluation of Child Health Status and Health Care Utilization in the First Years of Life
Creators: name: Pansieri, Claudia
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: Background: The first 1,000 days of life are a unique period for the brain architecture. The development of perceptual, sensorimotor, social and language systems depend crucially on environmental stimulation. Multiple factors influence the acquisition of competencies, including health, nutrition, security and safety, responsive caregiving, and early learning. All are necessary for nurturing care and evolve through bi-directional interactions.

 Following children from born since adulthood researchers can identify individual trajectories through the different stages of growth that develop in function of the social and the historical context.

 Aim: The thesis aims to describe the development and running of a national birth cohort aiming to understand how the influences of environmental and nurture factors, that include also the social context, can affect child health.

 Methods: We performed an extensive review aiming for the identification of all the European Birth Cohorts focusing on those that started data collection at birth.

 All the information gathered from this review has been essential to defining and running NASCITA (NAscere e CREscere in ITAlia) a national birth cohort officially started on the 1st of April 2019. In this thesis, I will present the protocol, the management and the organization of this birth cohort and some preliminary results.

 Results: The enrollment of newborns began on April 1st, 2019. After six months from the start, the number of participating pediatricians was 160 and the number of children enrolled 2264. Most of the mothers (84%) were born in Italy and had a healthy pregnancy. The anthropometric measures of the newborns were showing an average of 3792 grams at birth and 59% of them were also breastfed at 6 months.

 Discussion: The only way to understand the epidemiology of diseases and to address related needs is through large epidemiological studies. In NASCITA we aim to perform an in-depth study of child development and health and the impact on them of nurturing care.
The OI Line Emission in Active Galactic Nuclei Revisited

description: UV, visible, and near-infrared spectroscopy is used to study the transitions of neutral oxygen leading to the emission of broad OI $λ$8446, $λ$11287 and $λ$1304 in Active Galactic Nuclei. From the strength of the former two lines, contrary to the general belief, we found that in six out of seven galaxies, L-beta fluorescence is not the only mechanism responsible for the formation of these three lines. Because OI $λ$13165 is almost reduced to noise level, continuum fluorescence is ruled out as an additional excitation mechanism, but the presence of OI $λ$7774 in one of the objects suggests that collisional ionization may have an important role in the formation of OI $λ$8446. The usefulness of the OI lines as a reliable reddening indicator for the broad line region is discussed. The values of E(B-V) derived from the OI $λ1304/λ$8446 ratio agree with those obtained using other reddening indicators. The observations point toward a break in the one-to-one photon relation between OI $λ$8446 and OI $λ$1304, attributable to several destruction mechanisms that may affect the latter line.
