description: COSMOGRAIL is a long-term photometric monitoring of gravitationally lensed QSOs aimed at implementing Refsdal's time-delay method to measure cosmological parameters, in particular H0. Given long and well sampled light curves of strongly lensed QSOs, time-delay measurements require numerical techniques whose quality must be assessed. To this end, and also in view of future monitoring programs or surveys such as the LSST, a blind signal processing competition named Time Delay Challenge 1 (TDC1) was held in 2014. The aim of the present paper, which is based on the simulated light curves from the TDC1, is double. First, we test the performance of the time-delay measurement techniques currently used in COSMOGRAIL. Second, we analyse the quantity and quality of the harvest of time delays obtained from the TDC1 simulations. To achieve these goals, we first discover time delays through a careful inspection of the light curves via a dedicated visual interface. Our measurement algorithms can then be applied to the data in an automated way. We show that our techniques have no significant biases, and yield adequate uncertainty estimates resulting in reduced chi2 values between 0.5 and 1.0. We provide estimates for the number and precision of time-delay measurements that can be expected from future time-delay monitoring campaigns as a function of the photometric signal-to-noise ratio and of the true time delay. We make our blind measurements on the TDC1 data publicly available

description: We compute asymptotics for Hankel determinants and orthogonal polynomials with respect to a discontinuous Gaussian weight, in a critical regime where the discontinuity is close to the edge of the associated equilibrium measure support. Their behavior is described in terms of the Ablowitz-Segur family of solutions to the Painlevé II equation. Our results complement the ones in [Xu,Zhao,2011]. As consequences of our results, we conjecture asymptotics for an Airy kernel Fredholm determinant and total integral identities for Painlevé II transcendents, and we also prove a new result on the poles of the Ablowitz-Segur solutions to the Painlevé II equation. We also highlight applications of our results in random matrix theory.

description: Sarcasm is considered one of the most difficult problem in sentiment analysis. In our ob-servation on Indonesian social media, for cer-tain topics, people tend to criticize something using sarcasm. Here, we proposed two additional features to detect sarcasm after a common sentiment analysis is conducted. The features are the negativity information and the number of interjection words. We also employed translated SentiWordNet in the sentiment classification. All the classifications were conducted with machine learning algorithms. The experimental results showed that the additional features are quite effective in the sarcasm detection.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator-independent release of ATP: Its implications for the regulation of P2Y2 receptors in airway epithelia

description: The cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator (CFTR) is a cyclic AMP- dependent Cl- channel that is defective in CF cells. It has been hypothesized that CFTR exhibits an ATP release function that controls the airway surface ATP concentrations. In airway epithelial cells, CFTR- independent Ca2+-activated Cl- conductance is regulated by the P2Y2 receptor. Thus, ATP may function as an autocrine signaling factor promoting Cl- secretion in normal but not CF epithelia if ATP release is defective. We have tested for CFTR-dependent ATP release using four independent detection systems. First, a luciferase assay detected no differences in ATP concentrations in the medium from control versus cyclic AMP-stimulated primary normal human nasal epithelial (HNE) cells. A marked accumulation of extracellular ATP resulted from mechanical stimulation effected by a medium displacement. Second, high pressure liquid chromatography analysis of 3H- labeled species released from [3H]adenine-loaded HNE cells revealed no differences between basal and cyclic AMP-stimulated cells. Mechanical stimulation of HNE cells again resulted in enhanced accumulation of extracellular [3H]ATP and [3H]ADP. Third, when measuring ATP concentrations via nucleoside diphosphokinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of [α-33P]dADP, equivalent formation of [33P]dATP was observed in the media of control and cyclic AMP-stimulated HNE cells and nasal epithelial cells from wild-type and CF mice. Mechanically stimulated [33P]dATP formation was similar in both cell types. Fourth, 1321N1 cells stably expressing the human P2Y2 receptor were used as a reporter system for detection of ATP via P2Y2 receptor- promoted formation of [3H]inositol phosphates. Basal [3H]inositol phosphate accumulation was of the same magnitude in control and CFTR-transduced cells, and no change was observed following addition of forskolin and isoproterenol. In both cell types, mechanical stimulation resulted in hexokinase-attenuable [3H]inositol phosphate formation. In summary, our data suggest that ATP release may be triggered by mechanical stimulation of cell surfaces. No evidence was found supporting a role for CFTR in the release of ATP.

description: The transition in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) from hadronic matter to the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) at high temperatures and/or net-baryon densities is associated with the restoration of chiral symmetry and can be investigated in the laboratory via heavy-ion collisions. We study this chiral transition within the functional renormalization group (FRG) approach applied to the two-flavor version of the extended Linear Sigma Model (eLSM). The eLSM is an effective model for the strong interaction and features besides scalar and pseudoscalar degrees of freedom also vector and axial- vector mesons. We discuss the impact of the quark masses and the axial anomaly on the order of the chiral transition. We also confirm the degeneracy of the masses of chiral partners above the transition temperature. We find that the mass of the $a_1$ meson ($ρ$ meson) decreases (increases) towards the chiral transition.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator inverts protein kinase A-mediated regulation of epithelial sodium channel single channel kinetics

description: Abnormal regulation of ion channels by members of the ABC transport protein superfamily has been implicated in hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and in excessive Na+ absorption by airway epithelia in cystic fibrosis (CF). How ABC proteins regulate ion conductances is unknown, but must generally involve either the number or activity of specific ion channels. Here we report that the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which is defective in CF, reverses the regulation of the activity of single epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) by cAMP. ENaC expressed alone in fibroblasts responded to activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase with increased open probability (P(o)) and mean open time, whereas ENaC co-expressed with CFTR exhibited decreased Po and mean open time under conditions optimal for PKA- mediated protein phosphorylation. Thus, CFTR regulates ENaC at the level of single channel gating, by switching the response of single channel P(o) to cAMP from an increase to a decrease.

description: BACKGROUND: Achieving climate targets will require a rapid transition to clean energy. However, renewable energy (RE) firms face financial, policy, and economic barriers to mobilizing sufficient investment in low-carbon technologies, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Here, we analyze the challenges and successes of financing the energy transition in Nigeria and Brazil using three empirically grounded levers: financing environments, channels, and instruments. RESULTS: While Brazil has leveraged innovative policy instruments to mobilize large-scale investment in RE, policy uncertainty and weak financing mechanisms have hindered RE investments in Nigeria. Specifically, Brazil's energy transition has been driven by catalytic finance from the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES). In contrast, bilateral agencies and multilateral development banks (MDBs) have been the largest financiers of renewables in Nigeria. Policy instruments and public-private partnerships need to be redesigned to attract finance and scale market opportunities for RE project developers in Nigeria. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that robust policy frameworks, a dynamic public bank, strategic deployment of blended finance, and diversification of financing instruments would be essential to accelerate RE investment in Nigeria. Considering the crucial role of donors and MDBs in Nigeria, we propose a multi-stakeholder model to consolidate climate finance and facilitate the country's energy transition.

description: BACKGROUND: The Recorded Consultation Assessment (RCA) was developed rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic to replace the Clinical Skills Assessment (CSA) for UK general practice licensing. Our aim was to evaluate examiner perceptions of the RCA. METHODS: We employed a cross-sectional design using a questionnaire survey of RCA examiners with attitudinal (relating to examiners thoughts and perceptions of the RCA) and free text response options. We conducted statistical descriptive and factor analysis of quantitative data with qualitative thematic analysis of free text responses. RESULTS: Overall, 182 of 260 (70%) examiners completed the questionnaire. Responders felt that consultations submitted were representative of the work of a typical GP during the pandemic and provided a good sample across the curriculum. They were also generally positive about the logistic, advisory and other support provided as well as the digital platform. Despite responders generally agreeing there was sufficient information available in video or audio consultations to judge candidates' data gathering, clinical management, and interpersonal skills, they were less confident about their ability to make judgments of candidates' performance compared with the CSA. The qualitative analysis of free text responses detailed the problems of case selection and content, explained examiners' difficulties when making judgments, and detailed the generally positive views about support, training and information technology. Responders also provided helpful recommendations for improving the assessment. CONCLUSION: The RCA was considered by examiners to be feasible and broadly acceptable, although they experienced challenges from candidate case selection, case content and judgments leading to suggested areas for improvement.

description: Integrative gene therapy typically requires dividing cells. This requirement has been perceived as an impediment for gene transfer to mature, uninjured airways where proliferation rates are very low. In diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF) that may be candidates for integrative gene therapy, airway cell turnover is not known but may be increased as a result of chronic inflammation. To determine if cells in airway surface epithelium and submucosal glands of CF patients proliferate at an increased rate, paraffin sections of bronchial segments removed from CF patients (n = 6) at the time of lung transplantation or rapid autopsy and from non-CF patients (n = 4) undergoing lung resection or transplantation were immunostained with PC10, a monoclonal antibody to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a marker of proliferating cells. The PCNA index (percentage of nuclei immunostaining for PCNA) in CF bronchial surface epithelium was 17.0 +/- 4.6% (mean +/- SEM), substantially greater than in non-CF airways (less than 0.2%). Within submucosal glands, PCNA-positive cells were more prevalent in the collecting ducts of CF patients than in those of normal subjects, but only rare mucous or serous cells were PCNA positive. These studies show that airway epithelial cell proliferation rates can be very high in inflamed CF airways. This prevalence of proliferating cells suggests that CF airway epithelium and submucosal gland ducts may be amenable to gene transfer using vectors, such as retroviruses, that require cell replication for stable integrative expression. Further studies are needed to evaluate cell proliferation in CF airways with less extensive airway injury.

description: Metal ions play numerous important roles in biological systems being central to the function of biomolecules. In this letter we show that the absorption of X-rays by these ions leads to a complicated chain of ultrafast relaxation steps resulting in the complete degradation of their nearest environment. We conducted high quality ab initio studies on microsolvated Mg clusters demonstrating that ionisation of an 1s-electron of Mg leads to a complicated electronic cascade comprising both intra- and intermolecular steps and lasting only a few hundreds femtoseconds. The metal cation reverts to its original charge state at the end of the cascade, while the nearest solvation shell becomes multiply ionised and large concentrations of radical and slow electron species build up in the metal vicinity. We conclude that such cascades involving metal ions are essential for understanding the radiation chemistry of solutions and radiation damage to metal containing biomolecules.

description: The absence of pathologic changes in newborn cystic fibrosis (CF) lung suggests that the fetal CF lung is inflated with a normal volume of liquid and that Cl- is secreted through paths other than the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-associated Cl- channel. We studied liquid content of distal lung and transepithelial electrical potential difference (PD) of cultured cystic tracheal explants from 16 to 19 day gestation fetal mice of CFTR (+/-)(heterozygous) females that were mated with CFTR (-/-) "knockout" males. Distal lung water content was not affected by fetal genotype. Basal PDs were not different (CFTR (+/-), 8.6 mV, and CFTR (-/-), 9.1 mV), and PDs of both groups were inhibited by intraluminal injection of amiloride (10(-4) M) (-25%) and after addition of bumetanide (10(-4) M) to the bath (-40%). Terbutaline (3 x 10(-5) M) induced a similar increase in PD (about 65%) in both groups. Intraluminal injection of ionomycin (2 x 10(-5) and 5 x 10(-6) M) raised PD in both groups (CFTR (+/-) by 32 and 27% and CFTR (-/-) by 41 and 11%). All of the increase in PD induced by terbutaline and ionomycin was inhibited by bumetanide. The PD response to terbutaline was not attenuated by pretreatment with ionomycin or the Ca2+ chelator BAPTA (10(-4) M). Ionomycin or ATP, but not terbutaline, increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration of isolated cultured tracheal epithelial cells.

Next, we used the Aladin and STILTS virtual observatory tools, and the PPMXL proper motion and Washington Double Star catalogues to look for companion candidates. The resulting potential companions were subjects of a dedicated astro-photometric follow-up using public data from all-sky surveys. After discarding 67 sources by proper motion and 31 by colour-magnitude diagrams, we obtained a final list of 36 common proper motion systems. The binding energy of two of them is perhaps too small to be considered physically bound. Results. Of the 36 pairs and multiple systems, eight are new, 16 have only one stellar component previously classified as a beta Pictoris member, and three have secondaries at or below the hydrogen-burning limit. Sixteen stars are reported here for the first time as moving group members. The unexpected large number of high-order multiple systems, 12 triples and two quadruples among 36 systems, may suggest a biased list of members towards close binaries or an increment of the high-order-multiple fraction for very wide systems.

Mesoscopic higher regularity and subadditivity in elliptic homogenization

description: We introduce a new method for obtaining quantitative results in stochastic homogenization for linear elliptic equations in divergence form. Unlike previous works on the topic, our method does not use concentration inequalities (such as Poincaré or logarithmic Sobolev inequalities in the probability space) and relies instead on a higher ($C^{k}$, $k \geq 1$) regularity theory for solutions of the heterogeneous equation, which is valid on length scales larger than a certain specified mesoscopic scale. This regularity theory, which is of independent interest, allows us to, in effect, localize the dependence of the solutions on the coefficients and thereby accelerate the rate of convergence of the expected energy of the cell problem by a bootstrap argument. The fluctuations of the energy are then tightly controlled using subadditivity. The convergence of the energy gives control of the scaling of the spatial averages of gradients and fluxes (that is, it quantifies the weak convergence of these quantities) which yields, by a new "multiscale" Poincaré inequality, quantitative estimates on the sublinearity of the corrector.

Relationship of a non-cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator- mediated chloride conductance to organ-level disease in Cftr(-/-) mice

description: Although loss of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-mediated Cl- channel function is common to all epithelia in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, the severity of disease varies in different organs. We hypothesized that differences in disease severity in CF relate to the expression of an 'alternative' plasma membrane Cl- conductance. In CF mice [Cftr(-/-); mice homozygous for Ser-489 to Xaa mutation], which do not express cAMP CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion, we surveyed organs that exhibit a range of disease severity for a Ca2+-mediated apical membrane epithelial Cl- conductance. This alternative conductance (Cl(a)/-) was detected in epithelia of organs from CF mice that exhibit a mild disease phenotype (airway, pancreas) but not in epithelia with a severe phenotype (small, large intestine). We conclude that (i) there is an intracellular Ca2+-regulated Cl- conductance that is molecularly distinct from CFTR; and (ii) the level of expression of this alternative Cl- conductance in the epithelium is an important determinant of the severity of organ-level disease in CF.

A APLICAÇÃO DO PRINCÍPIO DA INSIGNIFICÂNCIA NOS CRIMES DE CONTRABANDO E DESCAMINHO
Creators: name: Kerly Amira Aires Nasser
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: O presente artigo traz um estudo sobre o Princípio da Insignificância e sua aplicação nos crimes de Contrabando e Descaminho, estes estão abstratamente previstos no Código Penal Brasileiro, em seu artigo 334 e 334-A, e em legislação extravagante, por meio de tipos que, grosso modo, consiste na ilusão, total ou parcial, de impostos ou direito devido pela exportação ou importação de mercadorias não proibidas, e o segundo na exportação ou importação de mercadoria proibida. Todavia, em alguns casos, condutas formalmente subsumíveis a esses arquétipos legais não causam lesão aos bens jurídicos tutelados por eles, levantando a questão da aplicação da norma da intervenção mínima, ou seja, do princípio pelo qual somente condutas que atinjam os bens considerados mais importantes devem receber a incidência criminal. O presente estudo foi desenvolvido por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica, primeiramente fazendo a identificação desses delitos e após analisando a aplicação do Princípio da Insignificância, constituindo assim, ações de bagatela, saindo da seara de interesse do Direito Penal.
