Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: This experiment aims to optimize the use of filler items in the response time Concealed Information Test (RT-CIT). Namely, we want to see (a) how verbal and nonverbal fillers (or their mix) compare to each other, and (b) whether nontarget-side fillers are necessary at all. At the same time, the experiment aims to test how well the RT-CIT works in a relatively realistic cybercrime scenario.
Gli attributi di Dio. Per una traduzione slavo ecclesiastico-russo-italiano del lessico religioso e teologico-filosofico
Creators: name: Ferro, Maria Chiara

Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2014

description: In order to understand and correctly translate religious and philosophical-theological words, general dictionaries often fail to provide satisfactory solutions. Issues related to their translation go beyond linguistics and bring up the matter of correspondence or lack of correspondence in concepts and contexts of reference. Waiting for and aiming at compiling a trilingual (Church Slavonic-Russian-Italian) lexicon of religious and philosophical-theological words, the authors analyze frequent lexemes in specific literary genres and semantic fields, in order to reconstruct their origins, semantics and use. In this essay they consider in particular six lemmas used in Church Slavonic hagiography, homiletics and hymnography to refer to the three persons of Christian God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit): vĭsedĭržitelĭ (vĭsedĭržatelĭ), sĭrdĭcevědĭcĭ, ženichŭ besŭmĭrtnĭnyi, ženichŭ nebesĭnyi, edinorodĭnyi, edinočadyi.

description: We study the dynamics of a spherically symmetric thin shell of perfect fluid embedded in d-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space-time. In global coordinates, besides collapsing solutions, oscillating solutions are found where the shell bounces back and forth between two radii. The parameter space where these oscillating solutions exist is scanned in arbitrary number of dimensions. As expected AdS3 appears to be singled out.

Efficiency and productivity analysis: empirical applications in cultural economics and transport economics and a methodological contribution
Creators: name: Price Elton, Juan
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: In this thesis some tools from the literature in efficiency and productivity analysis are relied upon to assess the economic performance of two sectors: the state-recognised museums in Denmark and the urban public transport systems in four Latin American countries. These sectors are regulated and partly funded by the state, hence these analyses are important not only from an academic perspective but also in terms of their policy implications. This thesis comprises an introductory chapter, three separate but related papers and a concluding chapter. The first paper analyses with stochastic frontier models the influence public funding may have on the technical efficiency of museums, considering the multiple cultural and educational services delivered by these organisations. The second paper (coauthored with Arne Henningsen) develops and tests an input-oriented stochastic ray function, which is suitable for the analysis with logarithmic functions of sectors where control over inputs is greater than that over outputs and where some productive entities do not produce the entire set of outputs, a problem that is pervasive in various economic sectors. We also address a critique the ray function has been subject to and demonstrate how to impose monotonicity conditions to its input-oriented version. We test the methodology with the same database as that of the first paper. The third paper (co-authored with Andrés Gómez-Lobo) applies a theory originally proposed in cultural economics (the Baumol Cost Disease) to the transport sector. This theory states that whenever labour productivity is stagnant, labour-saving technical change is rather absent and labour markets are integrated, costs increase in relation to those of the general economy, which in the case of transit systems generates significant fiscal pressures. The paper tests this proposition, as well as possible (partial) solutions to the problem, using data for four less-developed countries, contributing to a body of literature that, besides being scarce, has focused only in developed countries.

description: The current update of the ACC/AHA/NASPE Guidelines for Implantation of Cardiac Pacemakers and Antiarrhythmia Devices includes several significant changes in the recommendations and in the supporting narrative portion. In this summary, we list the updated recommendations along with the respective 1998 recommendations, each one accompanied by a brief comment outlining the rationale for the changes, additions, or deletions. All new or revised recommendations are listed in the second column and appear in boldface type. References that support either the 1998 recommendations that have not changed or the new or revised recommendations are noted in parentheses at the end of each recommendation. The reader is referred to the full-text version of the guidelines posted on the American College of Cardiology (ACC), American Heart Association (AHA), and North American Society for Pacing and Electrophysiology (NASPE) World Wide Web sites for a more detailed exposition of the rationale for these changes. In addition to the recommendation changes listed here, this update includes an expanded section on the selection of pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) that reflects the technical advances that have taken place since 1998. A brief expanded summary of pacemaker follow-up procedures is also new to these guidelines. For both of these expanded sections, the reader is referred to the online full-text version.

description: The purpose of my article is to discuss the new book on Jan Kochanowski by Jörg Schulte. The german scholar shows a wide-ranging erudition, discussing the sources of the polish poet, sometimes proposing really interesting texts, not registered by the critics yet. What is more problematic to accept, and what I discuss more deeply, is the presence, in Kochanowski’s works, of italian authors, especially Petrarca, or, sometimes, the direct relation among neo-latin poets and Kochanowski (I’m thinking about Erasm), without considering the more evident presence of texts from the ancient latin literature.

description: We study numerically nonuniform quantum turbulence of coflow in a square channel by the vortex filament model. Coflow means that superfluid velocity $\bm{v}_s$ and normal fluid velocity $\bm{v}_n$ flow in the same direction. Quantum turbulence for thermal counterflow has been long studied theoretically and experimentally. In recent years, experiments of coflow are performed to observe different features from thermal counterflow. By supposing that $\bm{v}_s$ is uniform and $\bm{v}_n$ takes the Hagen-Poiseiulle profile, our simulation finds that quantized vortices are distributed inhomogeneously. Vortices like to accumulate on the surface of a cylinder with $\bm{v}_s \simeq \bm{v}_n$. Consequently, the vortex configuration becomes degenerate from three-dimensional to two-dimensional.

Political Memes as Tools of Dissent and Alternative Digital Activism in the Russian-language Twitter
Creators: name: Denisova, Anastasia
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2016

description: This research has analysed the role of Internet memes in the contemporary Russian alternative discourse. It has identified memes as the Internet common language that users exploit to communicate on all topics and also utilise as the mind-bombs to influence the political discourse. This project focused on the employment of memes in the deliberation of the Crimean crisis in the Russian Twitter in 2014. Pro-government and anti-government activists have used this format of texts to promote their agenda and interpret the events, discuss political leaders, contest symbols of state propaganda and alternative narratives. The study is highly original as it followed the development of memes in real time; the interviews collected with the prominent meme makers and sharers stand out as the testaments of direct participants of this process. The subsequent in-depth analysis of the distributed memes unveiled the prevailing themes, narratives and symbols that shape the political and social discussion between the elites and resistance in contemporary Russia. This research on the role of the Internet memes in political deliberation of the Crimean crisis contributed to the under-studied field of political uses of memes in a non-Western authoritarian environment. The conceptual framework includes recent theory on the Internet memes, tactical activism, connective action, carnivalesque resistance, individual action frames and creativity for politics. Internet memes have proven to be a popular vehicle of critical political communication in Russian social networks due to the ease of producing and sharing, opportunity for self-expression and receiving feedback to one’s creativity and benefits of anonymity that escapes censorship and protects activists. My study has revealed that memes are limited in the sophistication of the ideas they can convey and in maintaining a long-term meaningful discourse; they serve as the in-jokes of digital communities; their ambiguity and anonymity challenges community building yet nurtures the spread of ideas; therefore, memes are more likely to serve as disruptive mind-bombs that connect ideas rather than individuals. This research has documented and analysed the media and political developments in Russia during 2011-2014 and provided suggestions for further research on the utilisation of entertaining artful texts for political deliberation, formation of the alternative discourse and political mobilisation in the restricted Russian media ecology.
Emergent physics on Mach's principle and the rotating vacuum

description: Mach's principle applied to rotation can be correct if one takes into account the rotation of the quantum vacuum together with the Universe. Whether one can detect the rotation of the vacuum or not depends on its properties. If the vacuum is fully relativistic at all scales, Mach's principle should work and one cannot distinguish the rotation: in the rotating Universe+vacuum, the co-rotating bucket will have a flat surface (not concave). However, if there are "quantum gravity" effects which violate Lorentz invariance at high energy, then the rotation will become observable. This is demonstrated by analogy in condensed-matter systems, which consist of two subsystems: superfluid background (analog of vacuum) and "relativistic" excitations (analog of matter). For the low-energy (long-wavelength) observer the rotation of the vacuum is not observable. In the rotating frame, the "relativistic" quasiparticles feel the background as a Minkowski vacuum, i.e. they do not feel the rotation. Mach's idea of the relativity of rotational motion does indeed work for them. But rotation becomes observable by high-energy observers, who can see the quantum gravity effects.

The relationship between neurocognition and social cognition with functional outcomes in schizophrenia: A meta-analysis
Creators: name: Penn, David L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: The current systematic review and meta-analysis provides an extended and comprehensive overview of the associations between neurocognitive and social cognitive functioning and different types of functional outcome. Literature searches were conducted in MEDLINE and PsycINFO and reference lists from identified articles to retrieve relevant studies on cross-sectional associations between neurocognition, social cognition and functional outcome in individuals with non-affective psychosis. Of 285 studies identified, 52 studies comprising 2692 subjects met all inclusion criteria. Pearson correlations between cognition and outcome, demographic data, sample sizes and potential moderator variables were extracted. Forty-eight independent meta-analyses, on associations between 12 a priori identified neurocognitive and social cognitive domains and 4 domains of functional outcome yielded a number of 25 significant mean correlations. Overall, social cognition was more strongly associated with community functioning than neurocognition, with the strongest associations being between theory of mind and functional outcomes. However, as three-quarters of variance in outcome were left unexplained, cognitive remediation approaches need to be combined with therapies targeting other factors impacting on outcome.

description: Estimating individual treatment effects (ITEs) is crucial to personalized psychotherapy. It depends on identifying all covariates that interact with treatment, a challenging task considering the many patient characteristics hypothesized to influence treatment outcome. The goal of this study was to compare different covariate selection strategies and their consequences on estimating ITEs. A Monte Carlo simulation was conducted to compare stepwise regression with and without cross-validation and shrinkage methods. The study was designed to mimic the setting of psychotherapy studies. No single covariate selection strategy dominated all others across all factor-level combinations and on all performance measures. Lasso showed the most accurate out-of-sample predictions, identified the highest number of true treatment-covariate interactions, and estimated ITEs with the highest precision across the most conditions. Domain backward stepwise regression and backward stepwise regression using BIC were least biased in estimating variance of ITEs across the most conditions.
Optical force on toroidal nanostructures: toroidal dipole versus renormalized electric dipole

description: We study the optical forces acting on toroidal nanostructures. A great enhancement of optical force is unambiguously identified as originating from the toroidal dipole resonance based on the source-representation, where the distribution of the induced charges and currents is characterized by the three families of electric, magnetic, and toroidal multipoles. On the other hand, the resonant optical force can also be completely attributed to an electric dipole resonance in the alternative field-representation, where the electromagnetic fields in the source-free region are expressed by two sets of electric and magnetic multipole fields based on symmetry. The confusion is resolved by conceptually introducing the irreducible electric dipole, toroidal dipole, and renormalized electric dipole. We demonstrate that the optical force is a powerful tool to identify toroidal response even when its scattering intensity is dwarfed by the conventional electric and magnetic multipoles.

Year: 2014

description: The main objective of the authoress of the monograph Tatczëzna. Literackie przestrzenie Kaszub (Tatczëzna. Literary Spaces of Kashubia) is to elaborate and present the anthropological outline of the Kashubian literature. He focuses on selected (anthropological) points of reference, i.e. leading motives in the Kashubian culture/literature. They are, on the one hand, childhood, femininity, masculinity, and on the other hand, the values which are fundamentally related to the spiritual culture of Kashubia: the native land (tatczëzna, rodnô zemia) and the Kashubian language (rodnô mòwa). Presentation of these motifs occurs in the cultural conditions of Polish tradition. The anthropological outline of the Kashubian literature is presented by Kuik-Kalinowska from two perspectives: in the “local” plane, i.e. in the context of social and cultural phenomena specific only for the Kashubian culture, and in a more general context, by emphasizing its universal aspects. Both perspectives are to show both what in the Kashubian culture and literature is regional, ethnic, own, as well as what is universal, of a general character, often unconscious to the writers. According to the researcher, the variety of themes and motifs of the Kashubian literature indicates its maturity and artistic self-sufficiency, and this puts it on an equal grounds with other literatures.

description: "Purpose: Expression profiling studies classified breast carcinomas into estrogen receptor (ER)+/luminal, normal breast-like, HER2 overexpressing, and basal-like groups, with the latter two associated with poor outcomes. Currently, there exist clinical assays that identify ER+/luminal and HER2-overexpressing tumors, and we sought to develop a clinical assay for breast basal-like tumors. Experimental Design: To identify an immunohistochemical profile for breast basal-like tumors, we collected a series of known basal-like tumors and tested them for protein patterns that are characteristic of this subtype. Next, we examined the significance of these protein patterns using tissue microarrays and evaluated the prognostic significance of these findings. Results: Using a panel of 21 basal-like tumors, which was determined using gene expression profiles, we saw that this subtype was typically immunohistochemically negative for estrogen receptor and HER2 but positive for basal cytokeratins, HER1, and/or c-KIT. Using breast carcinoma tissue microarrays representing 930 patients with 17.4-year mean follow-up, basal cytokeratin expression was associated with low disease-specific survival. HER1 expression was observed in 54% of cases positive for basal cytokeratins (versus 11% of negative cases) and was associated with poor survival independent of nodal status and size. c-KIT expression was more common in basal-like tumors than in other breast cancers but did not influence prognosis. Conclusions: A panel of four antibodies (ER, HER1, HER2, and cytokeratin 5/6) can accurately identify basal-like tumors using standard available clinical tools and shows high specificity. These studies show that many basal-like tumors express HER1, which suggests candidate drugs for evaluation in these patients."
title: Die Konstruktion von Anderen und die Darstellung von Gewalt während des Ersten Kreuzzuges
Creators: name: Klestil, Wolfgang
Year: 2023

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit geht anhand einer Historiographie zum Ersten Kreuzzug den Fragestellungen nach, inwiefern in Kreuzzugschroniken erstens die Darstellung von Anderen, in der Regel der muslimischen Gegner und zweitens die Schilderung von Gewalt für die Leserschaft umgesetzt wurde. Bei dem untersuchten Werk handelt es sich um die Historia Ierosolimitana, die von dem Benediktiner Balderich von Bourgueil zu Beginn des 12. Jhs. verfasst wurde und der, wie er selbst in seiner Einleitung erwähnt, sich stark an einem Bericht eines Kreuzzugsteilnehmers orientiert. Hierbei handelt es sich um die Gesta Francorum, die Balderich jedoch sowohl in stilistischen als auch in theologischen Belangen für zu einfach geschrieben hält. Er möchte, ausgehend von seiner Vorlage, gleich mehrere Punkte in sein Werk miteinbauen, wie etwa die Vorstellung, dass der Kreuzzug von Gott gewollt und die Kreuzfahrer sein ausführendes Werkzeug waren, oder der Umstand, dass die Hilfestellung für Byzanz gerechtfertigt sei, da sie ebenso Christen seien und durch die Gräueltaten der muslimischen Feinde in mehrfacher Hinsicht Leid zu erdulden hatten. Neben weiteren Aspekten zur Historia Ierosolimitana geht es im Folgenden darum, die Vorgeschichte zum Ersten Kreuzzug und insbesondere die Rede von Papst Urban II. in Clermont uns seine möglichen Ziele in den beiden Werken herauszuarbeiten. Anschließend wird mittels eines theoretischen Abschnittes zu wesentlichen Begriffen der Alteritätsforschung in Balderichs Werk die Anderen, vor allem die Byzantiner und Muslime, und ihre Darstellung analysiert und mittels einer quantitativen Auswertung den Gesta Francorum gegenübergestellt. Wie sich hierin zeigte, übernahm Balderich oftmals die Angaben seiner Bezugsquelle, entwickelte jedoch in einigen Bereichen auch eigene Zuweisungsmuster. Diese allgemeinen Erkenntnisse werden mit den weiteren Geschehnissen des Kreuzzuges in Verbindung gebracht, so wird etwa die oftmals angespannte Situation zwischen Lateinern und Byzantinern vorgestellt, wie auch die Möglichkeiten hinsichtlich der Darstellung des Gegners, exemplarisch an zwei bedeutsamen seldschukischen Persönlichkeiten. Die Untersuchung der Gewaltdarstellungen markiert den Abschluss der Arbeit, anhand ausgewählter Belagerungen wird aufgezeigt, dass es bei transkulturellen Kriegen, die noch dazu durch den Faktor der unterschiedlichen Religionen verstärkt wurden, durchaus eine Steigerung der Grausamkeit feststellbar ist, wenngleich die meisten Beispiele nicht außerhalb der damals gängigen Norm anzusiedeln sind.

Alternative models for stock price dynamics

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2003

description: This paper evaluates the role of various volatility specifications, such as multiple stochastic volatility (SV) factors and jump components, in appropriate modeling of equity return distributions. We use estimation technology that facilitates nonnested model comparisons and use a long data set which provides rich information about the conditional and unconditional distribution of returns. We consider two broad families of models: (1) the multifactor loglinear family, and(2) the affine-jump family. Both classes of models have attracted much attention in the derivatives and econometrics literatures. There are various tradeoffs in considering such diverse specifications. If pure diffusion SV models are chosen over jump diffusions, it has important implications for hedging strategies. If logarithmic models are chosen over affine ones, it may seriously complicate option pricing. Comparing many different specifications of pure diffusion multifactor models and jump diffusion models, we find that (1) log linear models have to be extended to two factors with feedback in the mean reverting factor, (2) affine models have to have a jump in returns, stochastic volatility or probably both. Models (1) and (2) are observationally equivalent on the data set in hand. In either (1) or (2) the key is that the volatility can move violently. As we obtain models with comparable empirical fit, one must make a choice based on arguments other than statistical goodness-of-fit criteria. The considerations include facility to price options, to hedge and parsimony. The affine specification with jumps in volatility might therefore be preferred because of the closed-form derivatives prices.

description: Researchers on this project are combining state agency data on juvenile justice, criminal justice, and recidivism with Census Bureau data on young people who have been involved in criminal or juvenile justice in one state. The researchers are looking at juvenile recidivism data integrated from three state agencies for nearly 83,000 individual juveniles who were involved in criminal justice systems between 2000 and 2014. Information about arrests, charges, disposition, sentencing, incarceration, and re-arrest are used. This data will be matched with federal data resources on income and employment (IRS and state unemployment insurance wage data), housing assistance (HUD), health insurance and health care (Medicare and Medicaid), and location. By combining state juvenile recidivism data with data resources held at the Census Bureau, the study seeks to identify government programs that are associated with non-recidivism, higher incomes, better health, more stable housing, or other socially desirable outcomes. Results of this study can contribute to policy discourse about how to serve young offenders and identify strategies for reducing recidivism.
Renato Poggioli. Between History and Literature
Creators: name: Ludovico, Roberto
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2014

description: A pioneer of Slavic studies in Italy during the pre-wwii years, Poggioli graduated in Russian philology under Ettore Lo Gatto in Florence before spending most of the 1930s between Prague, Vilnius and Warsaw as a lecturer for the Italian government. In 1938 he emigrated to the United States to teach Italian at Smith College and Brown University. After the War he went to Harvard as a professor of Slavic Studies and Comparative Literature. This essay shows Poggioli’s role during the first part of his career in making Slavic literatures, and modern Russian poetry in particular, accessible to Italian readers and scholars through his translations (La violetta notturna, 1933; Il fiore del verso russo, 1950). It also highlights his pan-European cultural vision, soon to be further extended to the transatlantic perspective after 1938. Looking beyond his specific work as a translator, a literary critic and theorist (Teoria dell’arte d’avanguardia, 1962), and his active engagement in antifascist initiatives in the u.s., Poggioli is depicted as a sophisticated intellectual against at the backdrop of the crucial decades centered around the years of wwii. Poggioli is not only a “cultural mediator” between the traditional eastern and western geo-cultural spheres, but also covers a key role in the transition between the late season of European Modernism, of which he was an offspring, and the age of the neo-avant-gardes, symbolically inaugurated in Italy in 1963, the same year of Poggioli’s premature death in a car accident in California, half a century ago.

Problemi dell'analisi lessicale nell'ottica glottodidattica

Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2004

description: Problems of the Lexical Analysis from the Point of View of Language Teaching With the introduction of the subject .Language and translation., the new university regulations have created the opportunity to deal with a topic which had not found yet its proper place in the study of linguistics: the question of differences in the organisation of the lexical fields between the student’s mother tongue and the language he is learning. Analysing the difficulties for both the learners who are native speakers of Slavic languages and the Italian Slavists created by the incomplete isomorphism in the structuring of the single semantic-lexical fields between the Slavic languages and Italian, we have tried to trace some general tendencies in the organisation of the lexicon. We concentrate on the greater inclination of the Slavic languages to resort to specific terms whereas Italian turns to the centre of the semantic field. We also analyse the distinction, typical of the Slavic languages (and for the most part grammaticalized), between a steady characteristic of the determinated on the one hand, and its transitory states or behavioural trait on the other, while the same opposition in Italian is expressed mostly by the verb tense. We could wonder whether this tendency that differentiates the Slavic languages from Italian might be explained by the presence of the verbal aspect, that is to say, the opposition between state and change has been grammaticalized. In order to illustrate this question we want to face in the language teaching field, we have chosen the semantic-lexical field of the dimensions in certain Slavic languages in comparison with Italian.

description: We numerically investigate margination of white blood cells and demonstrate the dependency on a number of conditions including hematocrit, the deformability of the cells and the Reynolds number. A detailed mesoscopic hydrodynamic Helfrich-type model is derived, validated and used for the simulations to provides a quantitative description of the margination of white blood cells. Previous simulation results, obtained with less detailed models, could be confirmed, e.g. the largest probability of margination of white blood cells at an intermediate range of hematocrit values and a decreasing tendency with increasing deformability. The consideration of inertia effects, which become of relevance in small vessels, also shows a dependency and leads to less pronounced margination of white blood cells with increasing Reynolds number.

description: Magnetic materials without structural inversion symmetry can display the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, which manifests itself as chiral magnetic ground states. These chiral states can interact in complex ways with applied fields and boundary conditions provided by finite sample sizes that are of the order of the lengthscale of the chiral states. Here we study epitaxial thin films of FeGe with a thickness close to the helix pitch of the helimagnetic ground state, which is about 70 nm, by conventional magnetometry and polarized neutron reflectometry. We show that the helix in an FeGe film reverses under the application of a field by deforming into a helicoidal form, with twists in the helicoid being forced out of the film surfaces on the way to saturation. An additional boundary condition was imposed by exchange coupling a ferromagnetic Fe layer to one of the interfaces of an FeGe layer. This forces the FeGe spins at the interface to point in the same direction as the Fe, preventing node expulsion and giving a handle by which the reversal of the helical magnet may be controlled.
Edition des Corpus areopagiticum slavicum

description: An Edition of the Corpus areopagiticum slavicum In the fourteenth century, the monk Isaiah of the holy Mount Athos translated the writings of pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite (c. end of the 5th century), core texts for Eastern and Western European theological and philosophical thought, from Greek into Church Slavonic. This first Slavic translation of Dionysius’ oeuvre (“De Coelesti Hierarchia,” “De Ecclesiastica Hierarchia,” “De Divinis Nominibus,” “De Mystica Theologia,” the epistles and scholia), which played a significant role in the development of Slavic culture, Orthodox Slavic socio-political theory and praxis, is still central to the study of Slavia Orthodoxa. A working group of German and Russian scholars has completed an edition of the translator’s Church Slavonic autograph with an en face reconstruction of the Greek text used by the translator and philological commentary. A Church Slavonic-Greek and Greek-Church Slavonic dictionary of this edition, currently in preparation, plans to make the terminology used in this influential translation accessible to interdisciplinary researchers. For the first time, the Church Slavonic lexica of this corpus, a substantial part of which was coined by the translator, will be registered in an index of words and forms.

description: Self-heating is a severe problem for high-power microelectronic devices. Graphene and few-layer graphene have attracted tremendous attention for heat removal thanks to their extraordinarily high in-plane thermal conductivity. However, this high thermal conductivity undergoes severe degradations caused by the contact with the substrate and the functionalization-induced point defects. Here we show that thermal management of a micro heater can be substantially improved via introduction of alternative heat-escaping channels implemented with graphene-based film covalently bonded to functionalized graphene oxide through silane molecules. Theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a counter-intuitive enhancement of the thermal conductivity of such a graphene-based film. This increase in the in-plane thermal conductivity of supported graphene is accompanied by an improvement on the graphene-substrates thermal contact. Using infrared thermal imaging, we demonstrate that the temperature of the hotspots can be lowered by 12 $^o$C in transistors operating at 130 W mm$^{-2}$ , which corresponds to half of an order-of-magnitude increase in the device lifetime. Ab initio and molecular dynamics simulations reveal that the functionalization constrains the cross-plane scattering of low frequency phonons, which in turn enhances in-plane heat conduction of the bonded graphene film by recovering the long flexural phonon lifetime.

How to Behave at Home and in Society: Karion Istomin’s Domostroj and Its Possible Sources

description: How to Behave at Home and in Society: Karion Istomin’s Domostroj and Its Possible Sources Among Karion Istomin’s pedagogical works, there is the so-called Domostroj, a sort of poetic book of good manners for children, written in the 1690s. Is it an original work or a translation? The question has interested scholars for decades. So far, the most convincing hypothesis is the one suggested by Agarkova (1967), that Domostroj might have arisen on the basis of Erasmus’ treatise De Civilitate Morum puerilium, known in 17th century Russia in Epifanij Slavineckij’s translation as Graždanstvo Obyčaev Detskich. Despite the correspondences between the two texts, one could hardly regard, as Agarkova proposed, Domostroj as a pereloženie of Erasmus’ treatise. In this article, I will consider another pedagogical work of the period, that is Comenius’ Praecepta Morum and try to compare the Latin text written by Comenius and Karion’s poetic text: the many correspondences seem to suggest that Comenius’ treatise should be considered one of the main sources of this Russian work.

description: "Background Gene expression profiling of breast cancer has identified two biologically distinct estrogen receptor (ER)-positive subtypes of breast cancer: luminal A and luminal B. Luminal B tumors have higher proliferation and poorer prognosis than luminal A tumors. In this study, we developed a clinically practical immunohistochemistry assay to distinguish luminal B from luminal A tumors and investigated its ability to separate tumors according to breast cancer recurrence-free and disease-specific survival. Methods Tumors from a cohort of 357 patients with invasive breast carcinomas were subtyped by gene expression profile. Hormone receptor status, HER2 status, and the Ki67 index (percentage of Ki67-positive cancer nuclei) were determined immunohistochemically. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine the Ki67 cut point to distinguish luminal B from luminal A tumors. The prognostic value of the immunohistochemical assignment for breast cancer recurrence-free and disease-specific survival was investigated with an independent tissue microarray series of 4046 breast cancers by use of Kaplan–Meier curves and multivariable Cox regression. Results Gene expression profiling classified 101 (28%) of the 357 tumors as luminal A and 69 (19%) as luminal B. The best Ki67 index cut point to distinguish luminal B from luminal A tumors was 13.25%. In an independent cohort of 4046 patients with breast cancer, 2847 had hormone receptor–positive tumors. When HER2 immunohistochemistry and the Ki67 index were used to subtype these 2847 tumors, we classified 1530 (59%, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 57% to 61%) as luminal A, 846 (33%, 95% CI = 31% to 34%) as luminal B, and 222 (9%, 95% CI = 7% to 10%) as luminal–HER2 positive. Luminal B and luminal–HER2-positive breast cancers were statistically significantly associated with poor breast cancer recurrence-free and disease-specific survival in all adjuvant systemic treatment categories. Of particular relevance are women who received tamoxifen as their sole adjuvant systemic therapy, among whom the 10-year breast cancer–specific survival was 79% (95% CI = 76% to 83%) for luminal A, 64% (95% CI = 59% to 70%) for luminal B, and 57% (95% CI = 47% to 69%) for luminal–HER2 subtypes. Conclusion Expression of ER, progesterone receptor, and HER2 proteins and the Ki67 index appear to distinguish luminal A from luminal B breast cancer subtypes."
