description: We study unitary pseudonatural transformations (UPTs) between fibre functors Rep(G) -> Hilb, where G is a compact quantum group. For fibre functors F_1, F_2 we show that the category of UPTs F_1 -> F_2 and modifications is isomorphic to the category of finite-dimensional *-representations of the corresponding bi-Hopf-Galois object. We give a constructive classification of fibre functors accessible by a UPT from the canonical fibre functor, as well as UPTs themselves, in terms of Frobenius algebras in the category Rep(A_G), where A_G is the Hopf *-algebra dual to the compact quantum group. As an example, we show that finite-dimensional quantum isomorphisms from a quantum graph X are UPTs between fibre functors on Rep(G_X), where G_X is the quantum automorphism group of X.

description: Human Campylobacter jejuni infections inducing campylobacteriosis including post-infectious sequelae such as Guillain-Barré syndrome and reactive arthritis are rising worldwide and progress into a global burden of high socioeconomic impact. Intestinal immunopathology underlying campylobacteriosis is a classical response of the innate immune system characterized by the accumulation of neutrophils and macrophages which cause tissue destruction, barrier defects and malabsorption leading to bloody diarrhea. Clinical studies revealed that enteritis and post-infectious morbidities of human C. jejuni infections are strongly dependent on the structure of pathogenic lipooligosaccharides (LOS) triggering the innate immune system via Toll-like-receptor (TLR)-4 signaling. Compared to humans, mice display an approximately 10,000 times weaker TLR-4 response and a pronounced colonization resistance (CR) against C. jejuni maintained by the murine gut microbiota. In consequence, investigations of campylobacteriosis have been hampered by the lack of experimental animal models. We here summarize recent progress made in the development of murine C. jejuni infection models that are based on the abolishment of CR by modulating the murine gut microbiota and by sensitization of mice to LOS. These advances support the major role of LOS driven innate immunity in pathogenesis of campylobacteriosis including post-infectious autoimmune diseases and promote the preclinical evaluation of novel pharmaceutical strategies for prophylaxis and treatment.

description: Endogenous oxytocin has been associated with different aspects of social cognition in healthy subjects and patients with schizophrenia. In this pilot study, we investigated the relationship between plasma oxytocin and oxytocin level changes induced by empathy-eliciting, attachment-related movie scenes with correlates of cognitive and emotional empathy in patients and healthy controls. The Multifaceted Empathy Test (MET) and the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) were administered to patients with schizophrenia (N = 35, 12 females) and healthy controls (N = 35, 12 females) to estimate dimensions of cognitive and emotional empathy. Peripheral basal oxytocin concentrations and oxytocin responses to movie-based emotional stimuli were assessed using radioimmunoassay with sample extraction. In patients, induced oxytocin level changes were inversely correlated with MET cognitive empathy regarding negative emotional states. Controlling for non-social cognition and age revealed a significant negative association between basal oxytocin levels and MET cognitive empathy for positive emotions. In healthy subjects, oxytocin reactivity was inversely correlated with the IRI subscale "fantasy". Oxytocin was not related to any measure of emotional empathy. A hyper-reactive oxytocin system might be linked to impaired cognitive empathy as a part of a dysfunctional regulative circuit of attachment-related emotions and interpersonal stressors or threats by attribution of meaning. Healthy adults with a disposition to identify with fictional characters showed lower oxytocin reactivity, possibly indicating familiarity with movie-based stimuli. The oxytocinergic system may be involved in maladaptive coping mechanisms in the framework of impaired mentalizing and associated dysfunctional responses to interpersonal challenges in schizophrenia.
Experimental demonstration of pitfalls and remedies for precise force deconvolution in frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy

description: Frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy provides an outstanding precision of the measurement of chemical bonding forces. However, as the cantilever oscillates with an amplitude A that is usually on the order of atomic dimensions or even larger, blurring occurs. To extract a force versus distance curve from an experimental frequency versus distance spectrum, a deconvolution algorithm to recover the force from the experimental frequency shift is required. It has been recently shown that this deconvolution can be an ill-posed inversion problem causing false force-distance curves. Whether an inversion problem is well- or ill-posed is determined by two factors: the shape of the force-distance curve and the oscillation amplitude used for the measurement. A proper choice of the oscillation amplitude as proposed by the in ection point test of Sader et al. [Nat. Nanotechnol. 13, 1088 (2018)] should avoid ill-posedness. Here, we experimentally validate their in ection point test by means of two experimental data sets: force-distance spectra over a single carbon monoxide molecule as well as a Fe trimer on Cu(111) measured with a set of deliberately chosen amplitudes. Furthermore, we comment on typical pitfalls which are caused by the discrete nature of experimental data and provide MATLAB code which can be used by everyone to perform this test with their own data.

description: Alternatipathes Molodtsova and Opresko, 2017 (emended)
 Alternatipathes Molodtsova & Opresko, 2017: 358 (see synonymy therein).
 Diagnosis. Corallum attached to substrate; monopodial, unbranched or with a few basal branches, and pinnulate. When present, pinnate branches of first order develop from lowermost pinnules of stem. Pinnules simple, arranged alternately (including lowermost pair) in two lateral rows. Length of pinnules on stem and branches decreasing in a distal direction, forming a triangularly shaped outline. Striatum absent. Spines conical, smooth, simple (or rarely forked), with acute to slightly rounded apex and flared base. Spines larger on polypar side of pinnule. Polyps 2–7 mm in transverse diameter.
 Type species. Umbellapathes bipinnata Opresko, 2005.
 Remarks. The diagnosis of the genus has been emended to account for the larger polyps found in the new species described below.
 The genus Alternatipathes was established by Molodtsova and Opresko (2017) based on corallum morphology (alternating pinnules and stem lacking a fluted region referred to as a striatum) and the results of mt DNA sequencing studies using cox3-cox1 (Brugler et al. 2013), which indicated that Umbellapathes bipinnata Opresko, 2005, and an undescribed Umbellapathes species (USNM 1204042, see Brugler et al. 2013, figures 2 and 3) were genetically distant from both Bathypathes and Schizopathes. More recent DNA sequencing studies using the mt gene regions, cox3-cox1 and nad5-nad1 (Chery et al. 2018) support the separation of A. bipinnata from Schizopathes; however, several unbranched specimens morphologically similar to Alternatipathes grouped with Schizopathes. Further study is needed to determine the parameters that separate Alternatipathes from Schizopathes.
 Species assigned to the genus. Umbellapathes bipinnata Opresko, 2005, Bathypathes alternata Brook, 1889, Alternatipathes venusta Opresko & Wagner, 2020, and Alternatipathes mirabilis n. sp.
 Distribution. The genus occurs in the Pacific, Indian, Atlantic and Southern Oceans at depths usually exceeding 2500 m and often greater than 4000 m. Information regarding occurrences in the Southern Ocean (mostly Bellingshausen/Amundsen Abyssal plains) are based on unpublished R/V Eltanin records at the NMNH [e.g., USNM 1114499 (R/V Eltanin sta. 673); USNM 78806 and USNM 83545 (R/V Eltanin sta. 1140); and USNM 78811 (R/V Eltanin sta. 1640)].

description: The problem of plane-wave diffraction on semi-infinite orthorhombic electromagnetic (photonic) crystals of general kind is considered. Boundary conditions are obtained in the form of infinite system of equations relating amplitudes of incident wave, eigenmodes excited in the crystal and scattered spatial harmonics. Generalized Ewald-Oseen extinction principle is formulated on the base of deduced boundary conditions. The knowledge of properties of infinite crystal's eigenmodes provides option to solve the diffraction problem for the corresponding semi-infinite crystal numerically. In the case when the crystal is formed by small inclusions which can be treated as point dipolar scatterers with fixed direction the problem admits complete rigorous analytical solution. The amplitudes of excited modes and scattered spatial harmonics are expressed in terms of the wave vectors of the infinite crystal by closed-form analytical formulae. The result is applied for study of reflection properties of metamaterial formed by cubic lattice of split-ring resonators.

description: This thesis deals with the experience of old age for working-class old people in England in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It covers a time period from the beginning of the agitation for old age pensions in 1878 to the implementation of the Beveridge Plan in 1948, thus extending over the last three generations of the Poor Law and the decades generally thought to mark the birth of the Welfare State. The thesis is in three parts. The first deals with age and employment, the second with the living conditions and health of the elderly at home and in institutions, and the third with old people and the community.

description: Background: Memory B cell (mBC) induction and maintenance is one of the keys to long-term protective humoral immunity. MBCs are fundamental to successful medical interventions such as vaccinations and therapy in autoimmunity. However, their lifestyle and anatomic residence remain enigmatic in humans. Extrapolation from animal studies serves as a conceptual basis but might be misleading due to major anatomical distinctions between species. Methods and findings: Multicolor immunofluorescence stainings on fixed and unfixed frozen tissue sections were established using primary antibodies coupled to haptens and secondary signal amplification. The simultaneous detection of five different fluorescence signals enabled the localization and characterization of human CD27+CD20+Ki67- mBCs for the first time within one section using laser scanning microscopy. As a result, human tonsillar mBCs were initially identified within their complex microenvironment and their relative location to naïve B cells, plasma cells and T cells could be directly studied and compared to the human splenic mBC niche. In all investigated tonsils (n = 15), mBCs appeared to be not only located in a so far subepithelial defined area but were also follicle associated with a previous undescribed gradual decline towards the follicular mantle comparable to human spleen. However, mBC areas around secondary follicles with large germinal centers (GCs) in tonsils showed interruptions and a general widening towards the epithelium while in spleen the mBC-containing marginal zones (MZ) around smaller GCs were relatively broad and symmetrical. Considerably fewer IgM+IgD+/- pre-switch compared to IgA+ or IgG+ post-switch mBCs were detected in tonsils in contrast to spleen. Conclusions: This study extends existing insights into the anatomic residence of human mBCs showing structural similarities of the superficial follicular area in human spleen and tonsil. Our data support the debate of renaming the human splenic MZ to 'superficial zone' in order to be aware of the differences in rodents and, moreover, to consider this term equally for the human palatine tonsil.

description: Vanadium oxide films and fibers have been fabricated by the acetylacetonate sol-gel method followed by annealing in wet nitrogen. The samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction and electrical conductivity measurements. The effects of a sol aging, the precursor decomposition and the gas atmosphere composition on the annealing process, structure and properties of the films are discussed. The two-stage temperature regime of annealing of amorphous films in wet nitrogen for formation of the well crystallized VO2 phase is chosen: 1) 25-550 C and 2) 550-600 C. The obtained films demonstrate the metal-insulator transition and electrical switching. Also, the effect of the polyvinylpyrrolidone additive concentration and electrospinning parameters on qualitative (absence of defects and gel drops) and quantitative (length and diameter) characteristics of vanadium oxide fibers is studied.

description: Multi-wavelength time-resolved observations of rotationally modulated variability from brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets are the most effective method for constraining their heterogeneous atmospheric structures. In a companion paper (Bowler et al. 2020), we reported the discovery of strong near-infrared variability in HST/WFC3/G141 light curves of the very red L-dwarf companion VHS J1256-1257b. In this paper, we present a follow-up 36-hr Spitzer/IRAC Channel 2 light curve together with an in-depth analysis of the HST and the Spitzer data. The combined dataset provides time-resolved light curves of VHS1256b sampling 1.1 to 4.5 $μ$m. The Spitzer light curve is best-fit with a single sine wave with a period of $22.04\pm0.05$ hr and a peak-to-peak amplitude of $5.76\pm0.04$%. Combining the period with a previously measured projected rotational velocity ($v\sin i$), we find that VHS1256b is most consistent with equatorial viewing geometry. The HST/G141+Spitzer spectral energy distribution favors a $T_{\rm eff}$ of 1000~K, low surface gravity model with disequilibrium chemistry. The spectral variability of VHS1256b is consistent with predictions from partly cloudy models, suggesting heterogeneous clouds are the dominant source of the observed modulations. We find evidence at the $3.3σ$ level for amplitude variations within the 1.67$μ$m CH$_{4}$ band, which is the first such detection for a variable L-dwarf. We compare the HST/G141 time-resolved spectra of three red L-dwarfs with high-amplitude near-infrared rotational modulations and find that although their time-averaged spectra are similar, their spectroscopic variabilities exhibit notable differences. This diversity reinforces the advantage of time-resolved spectroscopic observations for understanding the atmospheres of brown dwarfs and directly-imaged exoplanets.

description: Using rice straw as a carbon source, photoluminescent carbon nanodots (CNDs) were quickly prepared by pyrolysis under insufficient air flow and ultrasonic methods without the addition of other chemical reagents. This method is simple and environmentally friendly. The prepared CNDs have quasispherical nanoparticles with the average diameter of 5.8 nm observed from TEM image, and have good fluorescence performance with the quantum yield of 5.1%. The CNDs possess a clear correlation between photoluminescence wavelength and intensity and excitation wavelength, as well as good water solubility and salt resistance. In addition, the luminescent CNDs can not only be effectively taken up by HeLa cells and HUVECs but also exhibit low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility from CCK8 test and laser confocal imaging observations, respectively, making them promising complement to future cellular imaging assay applications. Moreover, the prepared CNDs can be used as ion sensors to selectively and sensitively detect Fe3+ ions in the concentration range of 0–1000 μM with a detection limit of 300 nM. Our proposed strategy for preparing carbon nanodots explores a new way to obtain fluorescent carbon materials and avoid environmental pollution caused by burning straw.

description: In this review article, we highlight several disparate ideas that are linked to changes in brain state (i.e., sleep to arousal, Down to Up, synchronized to de-synchronized). In any discussion of the brain state, we propose that the cortical pyramidal neuron has a central position. EEG recordings, which typically assess brain state, predominantly reflect the activity of cortical pyramidal neurons. This means that the dominant rhythmic activity that characterizes a particular brain state ultimately has to manifest globally across the pyramidal neuron population. During state transitions, it is the long-range connectivity of these neurons that broadcast the resultant changes in activity to many subcortical targets. Structures like the thalamus, brainstem/hypothalamic neuromodulatory systems, and respiratory systems can also strongly influence brain state, and for many decades we have been uncovering bidirectional pathways that link these structures to state changes in the cerebral cortex. More recently, movement and active behaviors have emerged as powerful drivers of state changes. Each of these systems involve different circuits distributed across the brain. Yet, for a system-wide change in brain state, there must be a collaboration between these circuits that reflects and perhaps triggers the transition between brain states. As we expand our understanding of how brain state changes, our current challenge is to understand how these diverse sets of circuits and pathways interact to produce the changes observed in cortical pyramidal neurons.

description: We report our survey of $γ$\,Doradus stars from the 4-yr \textit{Kepler} mission. These stars pulsate mainly in g modes and r modes, showing period-spacing patterns in the amplitude spectra. The period-spacing patterns are sensitive to the chemical composition gradients and the near-core rotation, hence they are essential for understanding the stellar interior. We identified period-spacing patterns in 611 $γ$\,Dor stars. Almost every star pulsates in dipole g modes, while about 30\% of stars also show clear patterns for quadrupole g modes and 16\% of stars present r mode patterns. We measure periods, period spacings, and the gradient of the period spacings. These three observables guide the mode identifications and can be used to estimate the near-core rotation rate. We find many stars are hotter and show longer period-spacing patterns than theory. Using the Traditional Approximation of Rotation (TAR), we inferred the asymptotic spacings, the near-core rotation rates, and the radial orders of the g and r modes. Most stars have a near-core rotation rate around $1$\,$\mathrm{c/d}$ and an asymptotic spacing around 4000\,s. We also find that many stars rotate more slowly than predicted by theory for unclear reasons. 11 stars show rotational splittings with fast rotation rates. We compared the observed slope--rotation relation with the theory and find a large spread. We detected rotational modulations in 58 stars and used them to derive the core-to-surface rotation ratios. The interiors rotate faster than the cores in most stars, but by no more than 5\%.

description: We analyze the Landau problem and quantum Hall effect on $S^3$ taking a constant background field proportional to the spin connection on $S^3$. The effective strength of the field can be tuned by changing the dimension of the representation to which the fermions belong. The effective action for the edge excitations of a quantum Hall droplet in the limit of a large number of fermions is obtained. We find that the appropriate space for many of these considerations is $S^2 \times S^2$, which plays a role similar to that of ${\bf CP}^3$ vis-a-vis $S^4$. We also give a method of representing the algebra of functions on fuzzy $S^3/{\bf Z}_2$ in terms of finite dimensional matrices.

description: Background: Fatigue in multiple sclerosis (MS) is conceived as a multidimensional construct. Objectives: This study aims to describe the changes of balance and gait parameters after 6 min of walking (6 MW) as potential quantitative markers for perceptions of state fatigue and trait fatigue in MS. Methods: A total of 19 patients with MS (17 with fatigue) and 24 healthy subjects underwent static posturography, gait analysis, and ratings of perceived exertion before and after 6 MW. Results: 6 MW was perceived as exhaustive, but both groups featured more dynamic comfortable speed walking after 6 MW. Shorter stride length at maximum speed and increased postural sway after 6 MW indicated fatigability of balance and gait in MS group only. While most changes were related to higher levels of perceived exertion after 6 MW (state fatigue), higher fatigue ratings (trait fatigue) were only associated with less increase in arm swing at comfortable speed. Further analysis revealed different associations of trait fatigue and performance fatigability with disability and motor functions. Performance fatigability was most closely related to the Expanded Disability Status Scale, while for trait fatigue, the strongest correlations were seen with balance function and handgrip strength. Conclusions: Fatigability of performance was closely related to perceptions of exertion after 6 MW (state fatigue) and disability in MS but distinct from fatigue ratings, conceived as trait fatigue. Our study identified postural sway, arm swing during gait, and hand grip strength as unexpected potential motor indicators of fatigue ratings in MS.

description: Primary tumors have a high likelihood of developing metastases in the liver and early detection of these metastases is crucial for patient outcome. We propose a method based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) to detect liver metastases. First, the liver was automatically segmented using the six phases of abdominal dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MR images. Next, DCE-MR and diffusion weighted (DW) MR images are used for metastases detection within the liver mask. The liver segmentations have a median Dice similarity coefficient of 0.95 compared with manual annotations. The metastases detection method has a sensitivity of 99.8% with a median of 2 false positives per image. The combination of the two MR sequences in a dual pathway network is proven valuable for the detection of liver metastases. In conclusion, a high quality liver segmentation can be obtained in which we can successfully detect liver metastases.

description: Treatment failure of solid cancers, represented by the development of drug resistance in the primary tumor or later outgrowth of drug resistant metastases, is the major cause of death for cancer patients. It represents an urgent clinical need for predictive biomarkers which indicate the success or failure of standard treatment regimens. Besides treatment prediction, interfering with cellular processes associated with drug resistance might improve treatment response by applying combination therapies. Metastasis-associated in colon cancer (MACC) 1 was identified in our group as a prognostic biomarker in human colorectal cancer, and has been established as key player, prognostic, and predictive biomarker for tumor progression and metastasis in a variety of solid cancers. Besides increased cell proliferation and motility, subsequently contributing to growth and metastatic spread of the primary tumor, MACC1 has also been shown to dysregulate apoptosis and is contributing to treatment resistance. Here we report the MACC1 dependent treatment resistance of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells to standard therapeutics like doxorubicin by upregulating ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) protein. Overexpression of MACC1 in CRC cells increased both its presence on the ABCB1 promoter and its transcriptional activity, resulting in elevated ABCB1 expression and thus treatment resistance to standard therapeutics. In contrast, depleting MACC1 increased intracellular drug concentrations, leading to better treatment response. We already identified the first MACC1 transcriptional inhibitors, such as lovastatin, by high-throughput screening of clinically approved small molecule drugs. These compounds inhibited cell motility in vitro but also restricted metastasis development in xenograft mouse models by reducing MACC1 expression. Here we report, that treating high MACC1 expressing CRC cells with a combination of statins and standard therapeutics increased the rate of cytotoxicity and resulted in higher treatment response.

description: Introduction: This study was designed to see prevalence of anxiety and depression among migrant workers presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. Material and method: Consecutive subjects working in middle-east countries attending at gastroenterology outpatient department were included. Psychiatric assessment of them was done using Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) by trained interviewer under supervision of a senior psychiatrist. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 20. Chi square test was done to see differences. Result: Total 426 patients, age from 18 years to 61 years (mean 36.96), 364 (85.44% from rural community, 353 (78.64%) married, and 390 (91.54%) working as laborer were included. Among them 66 (15.5%) and 45 (10.6%) had symptoms score consistent with anxiety and depression respectively. Anxiety was more prevalent among workers with lower level of education, higher age, shorter duration of migration and single marital status. Depression was more prevalent among married people, of lower educational and economic background and of older age. Abdominal pain, anorexia, loose motion, abdominal fullness, weight loss, constipation and incomplete bowel evacuation are common presenting symptoms. Conclusion: Anxiety and depression are common among Bangladeshi migrant workers in middle-eastern countries. Level of education, marital status, economic background and older age affect mental health. Depression was associated with higher numbers of physical complaints. Migrant workers are playing a vital role in our economy. So, issues of their mental health and psychiatric morbidity which might adversely affect their overall activity and foreign remittance, should not be neglected.

description: Background and aims: The mechanisms of interindividual variation of lipid regulation by statins, such as the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) lowering effects, are not fully understood yet. Here, we used a gut microbiota depleted mouse model to investigate the relation between the gut microbiota and the regulatory property of atorvastatin on blood lipids. Methods: Mice (C57BL/6) with intact gut microbiota or antibiotic induced abiotic mice (ABS) were put on standard chow diet (SCD) or high fat diet (HFD) for six weeks. Atorvastatin (10 mg/kg body weight/day) or a control vehicle were applied per gavage for the last four weeks of dietary treatment. Blood lipids including total cholesterol, very low-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein and sphingolipids were measured to probe microbiota-dependent effects of atorvastatin. The expression of genes involved in hepatic and intestinal cholesterol metabolism was analyzed with qRT-PCR. The alteration of the microbiota profile was examined using 16S rRNA qPCR in mice with intact gut microbiota. Results: HFD feeding significantly increased total blood cholesterol and LDL levels, as compared to SCD in both mice with intact and depleted gut microbiota. The cholesterol lowering effect of atorvastatin was significantly attenuated in mice with depleted gut microbiota. Moreover, we observed a global shift in the abundance of several sphingolipids upon atorvastatin treatment which was absent in gut microbiota depleted mice. The regulatory effect of atorvastatin on the expression of distinct hepatic and intestinal cholesterol-regulating genes, including Ldlr, Srebp2 and Npc1l1 was altered upon depletion of gut microbiota. In response to HFD feeding, the relative abundance of the bacterial phyla Bacteroidetes decreased, while the abundance of Firmicutes increased. The altered ratio between Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes was partly reversed in HFD fed mice treated with atorvastatin. Conclusions: Our findings support a regulatory impact of atorvastatin on the gut microbial profile and, in turn, demonstrate a crucial role of the gut microbiome for atorvastatin-related effects on blood lipids. These results provide novel insights into potential microbiota-dependent mechanisms of lipid regulation by statins, which may account for variable response to statin treatment.
