description: A main distinguishing feature of non-Hermitian quantum mechanics is the presence of exceptional points (EPs). They correspond to the coalescence of two energy levels and their respective eigenvectors. Here, we use the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model as a testbed to explore the strong connection between EPs and the onset of excited state quantum phase transitions (ESQPTs). We show that for finite systems, the exact degeneracies (EPs) obtained with the non-Hermitian LMG Hamiltonian continued into the complex plane are directly linked with the avoided crossings that characterize the ESQPTs for the real (physical) LMG Hamiltonian. The values of the complex control parameter $α$ that lead to the EPs approach the real axis as the system size $N\rightarrow \infty$. This happens for both, the EPs that are close to the separatrix that marks the ESQPT and also for those that are far away, although in the latter case, the rate the imaginary part of $α$ reduces to zero as $N$ increases is smaller. With the method of Padé approximants, we can extract the critical value of $α$.

description: Neurodegenerative disorders are characterised by irreversible neuronal loss, to which the exact mechanism remains unknown. One feature of neurodegenerative disease; Trans Synaptic degeneration (TSD) plays a key role in many CNS diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Optic Neuritis. Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DTMRI) allows us to measure and visualise the orientation and anisotropy of MRI parameters in vivo. These measurable parameters can be used to characterise tissue integrity in the brain and white matter and thus show microstructural changes that are occurring throughout the disease process. This study looks to investigate which MRI parameters are measuring demyelination and whether demyelination is the initial pathological change that is occurring in glaucoma. These aims will be addressed in two phases, firstly a meta - analysis will be conducted in order to identify which MRI parameter /s is directly measuring demyelination and axonal loss. Followed by a comprehensive analysis comparing adjusted retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness and MRI parameter values in the visual pathway in glaucoma patients. The clinical study will therefore allow us to identify which MRI parameter/s recognized from phase 1 are directly responsible for micro structural changes that are seen.

description: OBJECTIVES: This review aimed to systematically evaluate the characteristics of technology-based interventions (TBIs) and their effectiveness on anxiety, depression, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among patients with prostate cancer. METHODS: We identified eligible research reports published in English language between January 1, 2000, and September 15, 2018, from CINAHL; Embase; "Library and Information Science Abstracts"; "Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts"; "Library and Information Science Source"; PsychINFO; and PubMed. We abstracted randomized control trials and quasi-experimental studies that measured the outcomes related to anxiety, depression, or HRQoL. We extracted the data using the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions guideline. RESULTS: Among the six randomized control trials and four quasi-experimental studies that met our inclusion criteria, the TBIs aimed to provide informational, psychosocial, self-care management, and communication support. About 60-92% of the participants in six studies completed all required contents and 77-94% of the participants in four studies logged onto the TBI platform. Compared with the patients in usual care, the TBI users reported a significant reduction in anxiety (N=1 study) and depression (N=2 studies) and improvement in HRQoL (N=2 studies). We also identified the limitations of the existing TBI trials. CONCLUSIONS: We found insufficient evidence to support the effectiveness of TBIs in improving health outcomes (anxiety, depression, and HRQOL) among patients with prostate cancer. Future research needs to (1) use rigorous randomized control trials, (2) be sufficiently powered to examine the effects of TBIs, and (3) examine how the effect of TBIs on health outcomes vary by actual intervention use, intervention components, and duration.

description: The association between T-cell large granular lymphocytes (T-LGL) and ITP is uncertain. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of T-LGL in patients with ITP and to describe its association with ITP disease severity. We analyzed flow cytometry results for T-LGL (using a threshold of 0.3 x109 or greater cells/L) or positive T-cell receptor clonality in patients with ITP and nonimmune thrombocytopenia. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the association between T-LGL and ITP, response to ITP treatments (rituximab and splenectomy) and response to T-LGL treatment. Among ITP patients, 14.3% (13/91) had evidence of a T-LGL population compared to 10.3% (3/29) of patients with non-immune thrombocytopenia. ITP patients with T-LGL had lower nadir platelet counts (2 vs. 47 × 109/L) and received more ITP treatments (median 6 vs. 3) than ITP patients without T-LGL. Response to rituximab was observed in 14.3% (1/7) of ITP patients with T-LGL and 54.5% (6/11) without T-LGL. Response to splenectomy was observed in 25% (2/8) with T-LGL and 56.2% (9/16) without T-LGL. Four patients with ITP and T-LGL received treatment for T-LGL with methotrexate; none had an improvement in platelet count levels. T-LGL may appear in patients with ITP, and the meaning of this finding remains unclear; however, for some patients, the presence of abnormal T-LGL may indicate a more severe form of ITP that tends to be less responsive to therapy. In this cohort, treatment of T-LGL with methotrexate did not improve platelet counts in the few patients who were treated.

description: Photonic cluster states are a crucial resource for optical quantum computing. Recently a quantum dot single photon source has been demonstrated to produce strings of photons in a linear cluster state, but high photon loss rates make it impossible to characterize the entanglement generated by conventional methods. We present a benchmarking method for such sources that can be used to demonstrate useful long-range entanglement with currently available collection/detection efficiencies below 1%. Measurement of the polarization state of single photons in different bases can provide an estimate for the three-qubit correlation function . This value constrains correlations spanning more than three qubits, which in turn provide a lower bound for the localizable entanglement between any two qubits in the large state produced by the source. Finite localizable entanglement can be established by demonstrating > 2/3. This result enables photonic experiments demonstrating computationally useful entanglement with currently available technology.

description: The complete gravitational collapse of a body in general relativity will result in the formation of a black hole. Although the black hole is classically stable, quantum particle creation processes will result in the emission of Hawking radiation to infinity and corresponding mass loss of the black hole, eventually resulting in the complete evaporation of the black hole. Semiclassical arguments strongly suggest that, in the process of black hole formation and evaporation, a pure quantum state will evolve to a mixed state, i.e., there will be "information loss." There has been considerable controversy over this issue for more than 40 years. In this review, we present the arguments in favor of information loss, and analyze some of the counter-arguments and alternative possibilities.

description: Purpose of Review: "Target bias" is the difference between an estimate of association from a study sample and the causal effect in the target population of interest. It is the sum of internal and external bias. Given the extensive literature on internal validity, here, we review threats and methods to improve external validity. Recent Findings External bias may arise when the distribution of modifiers of the effect of treatment differs between the study sample and the target population. Methods including those based on modeling the outcome, modeling sample membership, and doubly robust methods are available, assuming data on the target population is available. Summary The relevance of information for making policy decisions is dependent on both the actions that were studied and the sample in which they were evaluated. Combining methods for addressing internal and external validity can improve the policy relevance of study results.

description: Вопросы по совершенствованию использования земельных долей в праве общей собственности на землях сельскохозяйственного назначения в контексте нормативно-правого анализа зависит от механизма управления земельными ресурсами сельскохозяйственного назначения. В настоящее время, в мире инновационных технологий, меняется отношение к землям сельскохозяйственного назначения. На сегодня в Тюменской области около 150 тыс. га формально не используются, однако 33 тыс. га пригодны для производства в сельском хозяйстве. Поэтому необходимо: инвестирование в сельскохозяйственное производство, увеличение количества рабочих мест, применение передовых агропромышленных технологий, создание эффективной системы менеджмента и маркетинга. Использование земельных долей заключается в том, что в связи с не востребованностью большого количества сельскохозяйственных угодий происходит значительные потери сельскохозяйственной продукции, что, приводит к не поступлению платежей в муниципальные бюджеты.

Moreover, the $C^0$ mass at infinity is independent of choice of $C^0$-asymptotically flat coordinate chart, and the $C^0$ local mass has controlled distortion under Ricci-DeTurck flow when coupled with a suitably evolving test function.

description: Context: According to numerical simulations, stars are not always kept at their birth galactocentric distances but migrate. The importance of this radial migration in shaping galactic light distributions is still unclear. However, if it is indeed important, galaxies with different surface brightness (SB) profiles must display differences in their stellar population properties. Aims: We investigate the role of radial migration on the light distribution and the radial stellar content by comparing the inner colour, age and metallicity gradients for galaxies with different SB profiles. We define these inner parts avoiding the bulge and bar regions and up to around three disc scale-lengths (type I, pure exponential) or the break radius (type II, downbending; type III, upbending). Methods: We analyse 214 spiral galaxies from the CALIFA survey covering different SB profiles. We make use of GASP2D and SDSS data to characterise their light distribution and obtain colour profiles. The stellar age and metallicity profiles are computed using a methodology based on full-spectrum fitting techniques (pPXF, GANDALF, and STECKMAP) to the IFS CALIFA data. Results: The distributions of the colour, stellar age and stellar metallicity gradients in the inner parts for galaxies displaying different SB profiles are unalike as suggested by Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Anderson-Darling tests. We find a trend in which type II galaxies show the steepest profiles of all and type III the shallowest, with type I galaxies displaying an intermediate behaviour. Conclusions: These results are consistent with a scenario in which radial migration is more efficient for type III galaxies than for type I systems with type II galaxies presenting the lowest radial migration efficiency. In such scenario, radial migration mixes the stellar content flattening the radial stellar properties and... [abriged]

description: To infer potential causal relationships between 3D chromatin structure, enhancers, and gene transcription, we mapped each feature in a genome-wide fashion across eight narrowly spaced time points of macrophage activation. Enhancers and genes connected by loops exhibit stronger correlations between histone H3K27 acetylation and expression than can be explained by genomic distance or physical proximity alone. At these looped enhancer-promoter pairs, changes in acetylation at distal enhancers precede changes in gene expression. Changes in gene expression exhibit a directional bias at differential loop anchors; gained loops are associated with increased expression of genes oriented away from the center of the loop, and lost loops are often accompanied by high levels of transcription within the loop boundaries themselves. These results are consistent with a reciprocal relationship where loops can facilitate increased transcription by connecting promoters to distal enhancers, whereas high levels of transcription can impede loop formation.

description: Mrk 1216 is a nearby, early-type galaxy with a small effective radius of 2.8 kpc and a large stellar velocity dispersion of 308 km/s for its K-band luminosity of 1.4x10^11 L_sun. Using integral-field spectroscopy assisted by adaptive optics from Gemini North, we measure spatially resolved stellar kinematics within ~450 pc of the galaxy nucleus. The galaxy exhibits regular rotation with velocities of \pm 180 km/s and a sharply peaked velocity dispersion profile that reaches 425 km/s at the center. We fit axisymmetric, orbit-based dynamical models to the combination of these high angular resolution kinematics, large-scale kinematics extending to roughly three effective radii, and Hubble Space Telescope imaging, resulting in a constraint of the mass of the central black hole in Mrk 1216. After exploring several possible sources of systematics that commonly affect stellar-dynamical black hole mass measurements, we find a black hole mass of (4.9\pm1.7)x10^9 M_sun and a H-band stellar mass-to-light ratio of 1.3\pm0.4 M_sun/L_sun (1-sigma uncertainties). Mrk 1216 is consistent with the local black hole mass - stellar velocity dispersion relation, but is a factor of ~5-10 larger than expectations from the black hole mass - bulge luminosity and black hole mass - bulge mass correlations when conservatively using the galaxy's total luminosity or stellar mass. This behavior is quite similar to the extensively studied compact galaxy NGC 1277. Resembling the z~2 quiescent galaxies, Mrk 1216 may be a passively evolved descendant, and perhaps reflects a previous era when galaxies contained over-massive black holes relative to their bulge luminosities/masses, and the growth of host galaxies had yet to catch up.

description: Abstract The United States (U.S.) West Coast power system is strongly influenced by variability and extremes in air temperatures (which drive electricity demand) and streamflows (which control hydropower availability). As hydroclimate changes across the West Coast, a combination of forces may work in tandem to make its bulk power system more vulnerable to physical reliability issues and market price shocks. In particular, a warmer climate is expected to increase summer cooling (electricity) demands and shift the average timing of peak streamflow (hydropower production) away from summer to the spring and winter, depriving power systems of hydropower when it is needed the most. Here, we investigate how climate change could alter interregional electricity market dynamics on the West Coast, including the potential for hydroclimatic changes in one region (e.g., Pacific Northwest (PNW)) to â€œspill overâ€ and cause price and reliability risks in another (e.g., California). We find that the most salient hydroclimatic risks for the PNW power system are changes in streamflow, while risks for the California system are driven primarily by changes in summer air temperatures, especially extreme heat events that increase peak system demand. Altered timing and amounts of hydropower production in the PNW do alter summer power deliveries into California but show relatively modest potential to impact prices and reliability there. Instead, our results suggest future extreme heat in California could exert a stronger influence on prices and reliability in the PNW, especially if California continues to rely on its northern neighbor for imported power to meet higher summer demands.
Beautiful wastelands: teachers talk texts in 'Bog Standard' schools

description: 'Wasteland': A place where life struggles to flourish A contaminated, unwanted, dangerous place A place for adaptation and creativity in survival A bog standard school is an ordinary school where the grass is always greener at the one next door. Australia has plenty of bog standard schools, many of them, but not always, public schools. Caro (2013) lifted the term out of the Australian vernacular, which in turn had appropriated it from the British (Crystal, 2005), to describe the ordinary if perhaps uninspiring local school which parents dismiss, and at times, outright reject, when weighing up where best to send their young lings (Butler, 2015). The problem for parents as much as for policy makers in Australia is that most schools, of course, are bog standard schools. They are ordinary in as much as school itself is an ordinary feature present in child and teenage life. However, within the ordinariness of bog standard schools are the extraordinary details of distinct human lives. From four schools and four English teachers come distinctive limning portraits of these wasteland schools in the Australian state of New South Wales. This thesis analyses teacher text choices in Grades 9 and 10 English: the pivotal teenage years of identity, struggle, belonging and resistance. In exploring site-specific phenomena and through comparisons of experiences, decisions, and values,stories emerge of teacher identities and their perceptions of their students' coming-of-age within a racialised, unequal, class broken Greater Sydney (Sawyer, 2017). These crystalised stories, collected and analysed through an emergent theorisation of narrative inquiry (Clandinin & Connelly, 1990; Caine, Estefan & Clandinin, 2013) and Arendtian philosophy (1958), provide new insights into the ways micro and macro forces are attempting to shape and mould English teachers as neoliberalised agents of the State (Connell, 2013). As such, this work sits alongside those pieces of research coming from America (Apple,1986/89; Apple, 2018) and the United Kingdom (Ball, 2003; Ball, 2015; Goodwyn, 2016) on English teacher work and identities amidst increasingly precarious times.

description: Потребление энергии во всем мире значительно увеличилось за последние несколько десятилетий и прогнозируется, что эта тенденция в будущем может только усугубляться, в случае, если государства и недропользователи не будут комплексно подходить к решению данной проблемы. Нерациональное использование традиционных источников энергии влечет за собой серьезные экологические и экономические проблемы. Наиболее очевидные негативные последствия это глобальное потепление, плохое качество воздуха и неблагоприятные последствия для здоровья. В целях уменьшения влияния указанных негативных воздействий, а также для получения дополнительной экономической выгоды для бизнес-структур, необходимо разрабатывать и использовать нетрадиционные источники энергии, делать их более самодостаточными, а также более рационально подходить к использованию любого рода углеводородного сырья. Одной из серьезных проблем недроспользователей всего мира и в частности РФ, является отсутствие на должном уровне рационального использования попутного нефтяного газа (ПНГ). При этом, разные страны и недропользователи сами разрабатывают и внедряют экономические механизмы, стимулирующие воспроизводство и рациональное использование минерально-сырьевых в районах нефтедобычи. И если у нас в России на крупных месторождениях указанный вопрос достаточно проработан, то на остальных месторождениях эта проблема остается.

description: Functional connectivity (FC) has become a leading method for resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) analysis. However, the majority of the previous studies utilized pairwise, temporal synchronization-based FC. Recently, high-order FC (HOFC) methods were proposed with the idea of computing "correlation of correlations" to capture high-level, more complex associations among the brain regions. There are two types of HOFC. The first type is topographical profile similarity-based HOFC (tHOFC) and its variant, associated HOFC (aHOFC), for capturing different levels of HOFC. Instead of measuring the similarity of the original rs-fMRI signals with the traditional FC (low-order FC, or LOFC), tHOFC measures the similarity of LOFC profiles (i.e., a set of LOFC values between a region and all other regions) between each pair of brain regions. The second type is dynamics-based HOFC (dHOFC) which defines the quadruple relationship among every four brain regions by first calculating two pairwise dynamic LOFC "time series" and then measuring their temporal synchronization (i.e., temporal correlation of the LOFC fluctuations, not the BOLD fluctuations). Applications have shown the superiority of HOFC in both disease biomarker detection and individualized diagnosis than LOFC. However, no study has been carried out for the assessment of test-retest reliability of different HOFC metrics. In this paper, we systematically evaluate the reliability of the two types of HOFC methods using test-retest rs-fMRI data from 25 (12 females, age 24.48 ± 2.55 years) young healthy adults with seven repeated scans (with interval = 3-8 days). We found that all HOFC metrics have satisfactory reliability, specifically (1) fair-to-good for tHOFC and aHOFC, and (2) fair-to-moderate for dHOFC with relatively strong connectivity strength. We further give an in-depth analysis of the biological meanings of each HOFC metric and highlight their differences compared to the LOFC from the aspects of cross-level information exchanges, within-/between-network connectivity, and modulatory connectivity. In addition, how the dynamic analysis parameter (i.e., sliding window length) affects dHOFC reliability is also investigated. Our study reveals unique functional associations characterized by the HOFC metrics. Guidance and recommendations for future applications and clinical research using HOFC are provided. This study has made a further step toward unveiling more complex human brain connectome.

description: This thesis undertakes a comparative investigation of media responses to Chinese President Xi’s maiden UN General Assembly Speech (28 September 2015), at a key moment when China is striving for recognition as a global superpower. China has increasingly focused on enhancing its national image and soft power at the principal institutional venue of world politics. The thesis will seek to find out how Chinese and US news frames differ in reflecting China’s national image at the United Nations. To do so, it will ask the following questions. (1) What were Chinese media’s intended frames in terms of assertives, directives and commissives? (2) What were the locally constructed frames in US media in terms of assertives, directives and commissives? (3) To what degree is there congruence or lack thereof between Chinese intended frames and locally constructed US media frames? To answer these questions framing theory will be employed in the examination of rhetorical structures in news frames in three Chinese newspapers’ and three American newspapers’ reportage of President Xi’s speech. President Xi’s speech will include the three possible types of speech acts, assertives that are essentially statements of belief; directives that call for compliance; and commissives that are promises and offers (Onuf, 2012). An imbalance weighted to the side of directives in reportage would be indicative of the view of the reporting media of a greater assertiveness in Chinese behaviour.

description: We investigate the effect of non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) on the formation of binary stars using a suite of three-dimensional smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics simulations of the gravitational collapse of one solar mass, rotating, perturbed molecular cloud cores. Alongside the role of Ohmic resistivity, ambipolar diffusion and the Hall effect, we also examine the effects of magnetic field strength, orientation and amplitude of the density perturbation. When modelling sub-critical cores, ideal MHD models do not collapse whereas non-ideal MHD models collapse to form single protostars. In super-critical ideal MHD models, increasing the magnetic field strength or decreasing the initial density perturbation amplitude decreases the initial binary separation. Strong magnetic fields initially perpendicular to the rotation axis suppress the formation of binaries and yield discs with magnetic fields ~10 times stronger than if the magnetic field was initially aligned with the rotation axis. When non-ideal MHD is included, the resulting discs are larger and more massive, and the binary forms on a wider orbit. Small differences in the super-critical cores caused by non-ideal MHD effects are amplified by the binary interaction near periastron. Overall, the non-ideal effects have only a small impact on binary formation and early evolution, with the initial conditions playing the dominant role.

description: BACKGROUND: In sub-Saharan Africa couple HIV testing and counseling (CHTC) has been associated with substantial increases in safe sex, especially when at least one partner is HIV infected. However, this relationship has not been characterized in an Option B+ context. SETTING: The study was conducted at the antenatal clinic at Bwaila District Hospital in Lilongwe, Malawi in 2016 under an Option B+ program. METHODS: Ninety heterosexual couples with an HIV-infected pregnant woman (female-positive couples) and 47 couples with an HIV-uninfected pregnant woman (female-negative couples) were enrolled in an observational study. Each couple member was assessed immediately before and 1 month after CHTC for safe sex (abstinence or consistent condom use in the last month). Generalized estimating equations were used to model change in safe sex before and after CHTC and to compare safe sex between female-positive and female-negative couples. RESULTS: Mean age was 26 years among women and 32 years among men. Before CHTC, safe sex was comparable among female-positive couples (8%) and female-negative couples (2%) [risk ratio (RR): 3.7, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.5 to 29.8]. One month after CHTC, safe sex was higher among female-positive couples (75%) than among female-negative couples (3%) (RR: 30.0, 95% CI: 4.3 to 207.7). Safe sex increased substantially after CTHC for female-positive couples (RR 9.6, 95% CI: 4.6 to 20.0), but not for female-negative couples (RR: 1.2, 95% CI: 0.1 to 18.7). CONCLUSIONS: Engaging pregnant couples in CHTC can have prevention benefits for couples with an HIV-infected pregnant woman, but additional prevention approaches may be needed for couples with an HIV-uninfected pregnant woman.

description: Blood platelets are crucial to prevent excessive bleeding following injury to blood vessels. Platelets are crucial for the formation of clots and for clot strength. Platelet activation involves aggregation, attachment to fibrin and clot retraction. Most assays that address platelet function measure platelet aggregation, not clot retraction. Here, we describe a 96-well-based clot retraction assay that requires a relatively short runtime and small sample volume. The assay involves continuous optical density monitoring of platelet-rich plasma that is activated with thrombin. The data can be analyzed using time-series analytical tools to generate quantitative information about different phases of clot formation and clot retraction. The assay demonstrated good repeatability and reproducibility and was robust to different calcium concentrations. Impairment of platelet bioenergetics, actin polymerization, fibrin interaction, and signaling significantly affected clot retraction and was detected and showed good agreement with light transmission aggregometry, suggesting that clot retraction is predictive of platelet function. Using this microplate clot retraction assay, we showed a significant difference in platelets stored in autologous plasma compared with platelet additive solution after 7 days of room temperature storage. Platelets are cell fragments in the blood that are necessary for clot formation. They are crucial to preventing excessive bleeding following trauma. To form clots, platelets clump (aggregate) and attach to fibrin protein and cells inside the blood vessels to form strong web-like structures. Platelets also contract to pull the edges of the wound close. Most measurements of platelet function involve aggregation. This paper focuses on platelet contraction. Here, we describe a new assay to measure platelets contraction that is repeatable and reproducible. The assay uses standard and common laboratory equipment and can be performed by most laboratory personnel and has the potential to detect clinical pathologies of clot formation. The assay could be developed for bedside patient care where platelet function could be assessed rapidly and assist in the diagnosis of coagulation and platelet disorders.
