description: This paper is devoted to investigate the Killing and Noether symmetries of static plane symmetric spacetime. For this purpose, five different cases have been discussed. The Killing and Noether symmetries of Minkwoski spacetime in cartesian coordinates are calculated as a special case and it is found that Lie algebra of the Lagrangian is 10 and 17 dimensional respectively. The symmetries of Taub's universe, anti-deSitter universe, self similar solutions of infinite kind for parallel perfect fluid case and self similar solutions of infinite kind for parallel dust case are also explored. In all the cases, the Noether generators are calculated in the presence of gauge term. All these examples justify the conjecture that Killing symmetries form a subalgebra of Noether symmetries [1].

description: Employing a recently developed many-body technique that allows for the incorporation of thermal effects, the rich phase diagram of a two dimensional two orbital (degenerate $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$) Hubbard model is presented varying temperature and the repulsion $U$. Our main result is the finding at intermediate $U$ of a novel antiferromagnetic orbital selective state where an effective dimensional reduction renders one direction insulating and the other metallic. Possible realizations of this state are discussed. In addition we also study nematicity above the Néel temperature. After a careful finite-size scaling analysis the nematicity temperature window appears to survive in the bulk limit although it is very narrow.

description: DNA oxidation damage has been regarded as one of the possible mechanisms for the hepatic carcinogenesis of dioxin-like compounds (DLCs). In this study, we evaluated the toxic equivalency factor (TEF) from the standpoint of induced DNA oxidation products and their relationship to toxicity and carcinogenicity. Nine DNA oxidation products were analyzed in the liver of female Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-pdioxin (TCDD) alone or the tertiary mixture of TCDD, 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB 126), and 2,3,4,7,8-pentachlorodibenzofuran (PeCDF) by gavage for 14, 31, and 53 weeks (5 days/week) by LC-MS/MS: 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGuo); 1,N6-etheno-2'-deoxyadenosine (1,N6-εdAdo); N2,3-ethenoguanine (N2,3-εG); 7-(2-oxoethly)guanine (7-OEG); 1,N2-etheno-2'-deoxyguanosine (1,N2-εdGuo); malondialdehyde (M1dGuo); acrolein (AcrdGuo); crotonaldehyde (CrdGuo); and 4-hydroxynonenal (HNEdGuo) derived 2'-deoxyguanosine adducts. Exposure to TCDD (100 ng/kg/day) significantly induced 1,N6-εdAdo at 31 and 53 weeks, while no increase of 8-oxo-dGuo was observed. Significant increases were observed for 8-oxo-dGuo and 1,N6-εdAdo at all time points following exposure to the tertiary mixture (TEQ 100 ng/kg/day). Exposure to TCDD for 53 weeks only significantly increased 1,N6-εdAdo, while increases of N2,3-εG and 7-OEG were only found in the highest dose group (100 ng/kg/day). Exposure to the tertiary mixture for 53 weeks had no effect on N2,3-εG in any exposure group (TEQ 0, 22, 46, or 100 ng/kg/day), while significant increases were observed for 1,N6-εdAdo (all dose groups), 8-oxo-dGuo (46 and 100 ng/kg/day), and 7-OEG (100 ng/kg/day). While no significant increase was observed at 53 weeks for 1,N2-εdGuo, M1dGuo, AcrdGuo, or CrdGuo following exposure to TCDD (100 ng/kg/day), all of them were significantly induced in animals exposed to the tertiary mixture (TEQ 100 ng/kg/day). This oxidation DNA product data suggest that the simple TEF methodology cannot be applied to evaluate the diverse patterns of toxic effects induced by DLCs.

description: Motivated by the wide applications of thermal stability and phase transition, we investigate thermodynamic properties of charged BTZ black holes. We apply the standard method to calculate the heat capacity and the Hessian matrix and find that thermal stability of charged BTZ solutions depends on the choice of ensemble. To overcome this problem, we take into account cosmological constant as a thermodynamical variable. By this modification, we show that the ensemble dependency is eliminated and thermal stability conditions are the same in both ensembles. Then, we generalize our solutions to the case of nonlinear electrodynamics. We show how nonlinear matter field modifies the geometrical behavior of the metric function. We also study phase transition and thermal stability of these black holes in context of both canonical and grand canonical ensembles. We show that by considering the cosmological constant as a thermodynamical variable and modifying the Hessian matrix, the ensemble dependency of thermal stability will be eliminated.

description: We report the higher order cumulants and their ratios for baryon, charge and strangeness multiplicity in canonical and grand-canonical ensembles in ideal thermal model including all the resonances. When the number of conserved quanta is small, an explicit treatment of these conserved charges is required, which leads to a canonical description of the system and the fluctuations are significantly different from the grand canonical ensemble. Cumulant ratios of total charge and net-charge multiplicity as a function of collision energies are also compared in grand canonical ensemble.

description: Lead exposure remains a global public health issue, and the recent Flint water crisis has renewed public concern about lead toxicity. The toxicity of lead has been well established in a variety of systems and organs. The gut microbiome has been shown to be highly involved in many critical physiological processes, including food digestion, immune system development, and metabolic homeostasis. However, despite the key role of the gut microbiome in human health, the functional impact of lead exposure on the gut microbiome has not been studied. The aim of this study is to define gut microbiome toxicity induced by lead exposure in C57BL/6 mice using multiomics approaches, including 16S rRNA sequencing, whole genome metagenomics sequencing, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolomics. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that lead exposure altered the gut microbiome trajectory and phylogenetic diversity. Metagenomics sequencing and metabolomics profiling showed that numerous metabolic pathways, including vitamin E, bile acids, nitrogen metabolism, energy metabolism, oxidative stress, and the defense/detoxification mechanism, were significantly disturbed by lead exposure. These perturbed molecules and pathways may have important implications for lead toxicity in the host. Taken together, these results demonstrated that lead exposure not only altered the gut microbiome community structures/diversity but also greatly affected metabolic functions, leading to gut microbiome toxicity.

description: This paper is devoted to investigate the exact solutions of Bianchi type $I$ spacetime in the context of $f(R,T)$ gravity [1], where $f(R,T)$ is an arbitrary function of Ricci scalar $R$ and trace of the energy momentum tensor $T$. For this purpose, we find two exact solutions using the assumption of constant deceleration parameter and variation law of Hubble parameter. The obtained solutions correspond to two different models of the universe. The physical behaviour of these models is also discussed.

description: Exposure to both endogenous and exogenous formaldehyde has been established to be carcinogenic, likely by virtue of forming nucleic acid and proteins adducts such as N6-formyllysine. To better assess N6-formyllysine as a biomarker of formaldehyde exposure, we studied accumulation of N6-formyllysine adducts in tissues of rats exposed by inhalation to 2 ppm [13C2H2]-formaldehyde for 7, 14, 21, and 28 days (6 h/day) and investigated adduct loss over a 7-day postexposure period using liquid chromatography-coupled tandem mass spectrometry. Our results showed formation of exogenous adducts in nasal epithelium and to some extent in trachea but not in distant tissues of lung, bone marrow, or white blood cells, with a 2-fold increase over endogenous N6-formyllysine over a 3-week exposure period. Postexposure analyses indicated a biexponential decay of N6-formyllysine in proteins extracted from different cellular compartments, with half-lives of ∼25 and ∼182 h for the fast and slow phases, respectively, in cytoplasmic proteins. These results parallel the behavior of DNA adducts and DNA-protein cross-links, with protein adducts cleared faster than DNA-protein cross-links, and point to the potential utility of N6-formyllysine protein adducts as biomarkers of formaldehyde.

description: We search for a light Higgs boson $A^0$ in the fully reconstructed decay chain of $J/ψ\rightarrow γA^0$, $A^0 \rightarrow μ^+μ^-$ using $(225.0\pm2.8)\times10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected by the BESIII experiment. The $A^0$ is a hypothetical CP-odd light Higgs boson predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model including two spin-0 doublets plus an extra singlet. We find no evidence for $A^0$ production and set $90\%$ confidence-level upper limits on the product branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\rightarrow γA^0) \times \mathcal{B}(A^0 \rightarrow μ^+μ^-)$ in the range of $(2.8-495.3)\times 10^{-8}$ for $0.212 \le m_{A^0} \le 3.0$ GeV/c$^2$. The new limits are $5$ times below our previous results, and the nature of the $A^0$ is constrained to be mostly singlet.

description: Advanced drug delivery systems (DDS) enhance treatment efficacy of different therapeutics in a dosage, spatial, and/or temporal controlled manner. To date, numerous chemical- or physical-based stimuli-responsive formulations or devices for controlled drug release have been developed. Among them, the emerging mechanical force-based stimulus offers a convenient and robust controlled drug release platform and has attracted increasing attention. The relevant DDS can be activated to promote drug release by different types of mechanical stimuli, including compressive force, tensile force, and shear force as well as indirect formats, remotely triggered by ultrasound and magnetic field. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in mechanically activated DDS. The opportunities and challenges regarding clinical translations are also discussed.

description: The screening efficiency of a metal-ferroelectric interface plays a critical role in determining the polarization stability and hence the functional properties of ferroelectric thin films. Imperfect screening leads to strong depolarization fields that reduce the spontaneous polarization or drive the formation of ferroelectric domains. We demonstrate that by modifying the screening at the metal-ferroelectric interface through insertion of ultrathin dielectric spacers, the strength of the depolarization field can be tuned and thus used to control the formation of nanoscale domains. Using piezoresponse force microscopy, we follow the evolution of the domain configurations as well as polarization stability as a function of depolarization field strength.

description: Cenobamate is a new antiseizure medication (ASM) recently introduced in the USA for the treatment of adults with focal-onset seizures. In March 2021, the European Commission authorized its use for the adjunctive treatment of focal-onset seizures with or without secondary generalization (focal seizures with or without progression to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures, according to current ILAE terminology) in adults with epilepsy not adequately controlled despite the treatment with at least two ASMs. This review summarizes the mechanism of action, efficacy, and safety of Cenobamate. The authors provide their expert opinions on the use of this drug. The aim of this paper is to report on the Italian preliminary experience with the use of cenobamate, focusing on treatment goals, optimal dosing and titration schedules, strategies to minimize adverse effects, and identification of suitable candidates for treatment. There was agreement that slow titration may improve tolerability, and that clinically significant benefit can be achieved in many patients at relatively low doses. A favorable response to relatively low doses of cenobamate could be an early predictor of ultimate responsiveness. Overall, cenobamate is a welcome new treatment for adults with focal seizures resistant to conventional ASMs.

description: The current paucity of clinical evidence limits the use of cannabis-based medicinal products (CBMPs) in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study investigates health-related quality of life (HRQoL) changes and adverse events in patients prescribed CBMPs for PTSD. A case-series of patients from the UK Medical Cannabis Registry was analyzed. HRQoL was assessed at 1-, 3-, and 6-months using validated patient reported outcome measures (PROMs). Adverse events were analyzed according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. Statistical significance was defined as p < 0.050. Of 162 included patients, 88.89% (n = 144) were current/previous cannabis users. Median daily CBMP dosages were 5.00 (IQR: 0.00–70.00) mg of cannabidiol and 145.00 (IQR: 100.00–200.00) mg of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol. Significant improvements were observed in PTSD symptoms, sleep, and anxiety across all follow-up periods (p < 0.050). There were 220 (135.8%) adverse events reported by 33 patients (20.37%), with the majority graded mild or moderate in severity (n = 190, 117.28%). Insomnia and fatigue had the greatest incidence (n = 20, 12.35%). Associated improvements in HRQoL were observed in patients who initiated CBMP therapy. Adverse events analysis suggests acceptability and safety up to 6 months. This study may inform randomized placebo-controlled trials, required to confirm causality and determine optimal dosing.

description: We give a survey of the long-time asymptotics for the Toda lattice with steplike constant initial data using the nonlinear steepest descent analysis and its extension based on a suitably chosen $g$-function. Analytic formulas for the leading term of the asymptotic solutions of the Toda shock and rarefaction problems (including the case of overlapping background spectra) are given and complemented by numerical simulations. We provide an explicit formula for the modulated solution in terms of Abelian integrals on the underlying hyperelliptic Riemann surface.

description: This paper presents a method to differentiate the foreground objects from the background of a color image. Firstly a color image of any size is input for processing. The algorithm converts it to a grayscale image. Next we apply canny edge detector to find the boundary of the foreground object. We concentrate to find the maximum distance between each boundary pixel column wise and row wise and we fill the region that is bound by the edges. Thus we are able to extract the grayscale values of pixels that are in the bounded region and convert the grayscale image back to original color image containing only the foreground object.

description: L’articolo si occupa di una particolare modalità di rigenerazione urbana, di una pratica nata come sottoprodotto della metodologia di laurea della Scuola di Architettura dell’Università di Talca. Senza che ve ne fosse una iniziale intenzione, in seguito al terremoto del 27 febbraio 2010 nella zona centrale del Cile, questa scuola di Architettura ha svolto con regolarità alcuni processi che possiamo definire come rigenerazione urbana dal basso e di piccola scala all’interno della Valle Centrale Cilena.

description: In this paper we determine the at least $4$-dimensional affine reductive homogeneous manifolds for an at most $9$-dimensional simple Lie group or an at most $6$-dimensional semi-simple Lie group. Those reductive spaces among them which admit a sharply transitive differentiable section yield local almost differentiable left A-loops. Using this we classify all global almost differentiable left A-loops $L$ having either a $6$-dimensional semi-simple Lie group or the group $SL_3(\mathbb R)$ as the group topologically generated by their left translations. Moreover, we determine all at most $5$-dimensional left A-loops $L$ with $PSU_3(\mathbb C,1)$ as the group topologically generated by their left translations.

description: Robert C. Elston was born on February 4, 1932, in London, England. He went to Cambridge University to study natural science from 1952-1956 and obtained B.A., M.A. and Diploma in Agriculture (Dip Ag). He came to the US at age 24 to study animal breeding at Cornell University and received his Ph.D. in 1959. From 1959-1960, he was a post-doctoral fellow in biostatistics at University of North Carolina (UNC), Chapel Hill, where he studied mathematical statistics. He then rose through the academic ranks in the department of biostatistics at UNC, becoming a full professor in 1969. From 1979-1995, he was a professor and head of the Department of Biometry and Genetics at Louisiana State University Medical Center in New Orleans. In 1995, he moved to Case Western Reserve University where he is a professor of epidemiology and biostatistics and served as chairman from 2008 to 2014. Between 1966 and 2013, he directed 42 Ph.D. students and mentored over 40 post-doctoral fellows. If one regards him as a founder of a pedigree in research in genetic epidemiology, it was estimated in 2007 that there were more than 500 progeny. Among his many honors are a NIH Research Career Development Award (1966-1976), the Leadership Award from International Society of Human Genetics (1995), William Allan Award from American Society of Human Genetics (1996), NIH MERIT Award (1998) and the Marvin Zelen Leadership Award, Harvard University (2004). He is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and the Institute of Mathematical Statistics as well as a Fellow of the Ohio Academy of Science. A leader in research in genetic epidemiology for over 40 years, he has published over 600 research articles in biostatistics, genetic epidemiology and applications. He has also coauthored and edited 9 books in biostatistics, population genetics and methods for the analysis of genetic data.

Accoglienza fuori luogo. La transitorietà dell’abitare come occasione di riscrittura urbana

description: Le città contemporanee affrontano sfide – e reagiscono alle crescenti sollecitazioni ambientali ed economiche – figlie di un inedito nomadismo sociale. Da un lato assistiamo ad un crescente abbandono con conseguente dismissione di alcuni luoghi, non solo della produzione. Dall’altro il fenomeno migratorio globale ha evidenti ripercussioni a scala locale generando, in alcuni interstizi delle città, microcosmi di comunità. Lo scritto propone spunti di riflessione per strutturare priorità operative relative all’emergenza abitativa transitoria, e a porle in relazione a processi di rigenerazione urbana capaci di rispondere a bisogni eterogenei. Integrare politiche abitative e servizi al quartiere assecondando iniziative dal basso, può permettere di perseguire una maggior condivisione tra gli attori coinvolti, favorendo l’inserimento stabile di persone in transito e, allo stesso tempo, di agganciare una realtà apparentemente restia al tema dell’accoglienza: l’opinione pubblica.

description: In this randomized controlled trial we test a novel form of cognitive bias modification (CBM) – in addition to (video-chat) cognitive behavioural therapy – for adult smokers seeking help to quit. Participants will be trained in the context of personally relevant antecedents (A) to make behavioural choices (B) relevant to their (health) goals, in light of their consequences (C). The training entails a virtual environment in which an avatar represents the participant in a self-chosen context, having to make a choice between smoking a cigarette or a self-chosen alternative behaviour, leading to a certain consequence. By repeatedly reflecting on the consequences of their choices – smoking is bad, alternative behaviour is good – we hypothesize that smokers will be better able to remain quit. While the complete ABC training is as-yet untested, tentative evidence shows that its components are effective. When CBM to reduce unhealthy eating was performed in a virtual, simulated real-life context (standing in front of a fridge) and participants were made aware of health consequences of unhealthy eating, its effectiveness improved. Using personalized, alternative behavioural choices has also been shown to increase the effectiveness of CBM for smoking.

description: Microgrids are a promising solution for providing renewable electricity access to rural populations in the Global South. To ensure such renewable microgrids are affordable, careful planning and dimensioning are required. High-resolution data on electricity generation and consumption is necessary for optimal design. Unfortunately, real-world electricity data for microgrids in the Global South is scarce, and the limited data that is available has a low temporal resolution. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce a unique high-resolution real-world electricity data set from three micro-grids in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, and Haiti. The data has a temporal resolution of up to five seconds and focuses on microgrids with renewable generation from either hydropower or photovoltaic systems. Furthermore, we include data from both residential and industrial microgrids. We describe the recorded data and highlight the advantages of the high resolution. We demonstrate how this resolution offers insight into consumption patterns and enables the analysis of grid voltage and frequency, which is highly relevant for the planning and dimensioning of affordable renewable microgrids in the Global South.
