description: PhenolQuest is a Food Frequency Questionnaire specially designed to assess in great detail the dietary intake of (poly)phenols belonging to all the major families, in populations following a European-style diet. Particular attention has been paid to optimizing the food list, questionnaire’s design and usability. PhenolQuest was developed by INRAE, as part of a project partially funded by Danone.

(Poly)phenols represent a large class of bioactive compounds present in our diet. An increasing number of epidemiological, clinical and pre-clinical studies are demonstrating the beneficial effects of (poly)phenols on various health parameters, parlicularly in relation with the prevention of cardiometabolic diseases. However, fully understanding their potential in preventive nutrition requires significant improvements in the assessment of individuals’ exposure to a variety of (poly)phenols. One of the current limitations is the use of standard Food Frequency Questionnaires (FFQ) that are not specifically designed for that purpose and as a consequence lack precision and accuracy for assessment of (poly)phenol intakes.

We developed the FFQ PhenolQuest, specially designed to assess with a high level of details the dietary intakes of 120 (poly)phenols belonging to all main families, in populations following a European-style diet. It includes 188 foods with a number of additional variations (n=75). Special effort was made to optimize the questionnaire’s design and usability. In particular, the consumption frequency options were expanded compared to standard FFQ and tailored to different food groups. An application test conducted on a French population panel of 110 sujects demonstrated PhenoQuest’s ability to capture the diversity of (poly)phenol sources consumption patterns. PhenolQuest is shared in integrality for free use and further validation by the community.

description: We report the result of our search for the 380 GHz H2O line emissions from the quadruply lensed QSO MG J0104+0534 at z = 2.639 with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Our observation shows a tentative detection of the 380 GHz line from the lensed QSO, and line spectrum shows a broad spectral distribution that has a velocity width of ~290 km/s and a peak flux of ~0.8 mJy. The integrated-intensity map of the H2O line show lensed emissions at the A1 and A2 component of the QSO, with the A2 component slightly resolved. The integrated line flux ratio between the A1 and A2 component shows unexpected difference with the continuum flux ratio. Based on our gravitational lens modeling assuming our tentative detection is real, this flux ratio anomaly would suggest that the 380 GHz line emissions come from two or three spatially displaced locations in the QSO, with the dominant one located at the position of the continuum emission from the QSO and the other one(s) displaced from the continuum by ~1.5 kpc on the source plane.

description: We consider the effects of the electron-electron interaction in a clean Dirac metal, i.e., a Dirac system with the chemical potential not tuned to the Dirac point. We introduce the notion of a Dirac Fermi liquid (DFL) and discuss the soft two-particle excitations in such systems, which are qualitatively different from the corresponding excitations in a conventional, or Landau, Fermi liquid (LFL). These soft excitations lead to nonanalytic dependencies of observables, including the density of states, the spin susceptibility, and the specific heat, on the temperature, magnetic field, and wave number, which first appear at second order in the interaction. We determine and discuss the nature of these nonanalyticities in a DFL and compare them with the corresponding effects in a LFL. Our results are based on very general arguments regarding the existence and nature of the soft modes, and corroborated by explicit perturbative calculations. We also discuss their consequences for magnetic quantum phase transitions in Dirac metals.

description: Convolutional neural networks are sensitive to unknown noisy condition in the test phase and so their performance degrades for the noisy data classification task including noisy speech recognition. In this research, a new convolutional neural network (CNN) model with data uncertainty handling; referred as NCNN (Neutrosophic Convolutional Neural Network); is proposed for classification task. Here, speech signals are used as input data and their noise is modeled as uncertainty. In this task, using speech spectrogram, a definition of uncertainty is proposed in neutrosophic (NS) domain. Uncertainty is computed for each Time-frequency point of speech spectrogram as like a pixel. Therefore, uncertainty matrix with the same size of spectrogram is created in NS domain. In the next step, a two parallel paths CNN classification model is proposed. Speech spectrogram is used as input of the first path and uncertainty matrix for the second path. The outputs of two paths are combined to compute the final output of the classifier. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, it has been compared with conventional CNN on the isolated words of Aurora2 dataset. The proposed method achieves the average accuracy of 85.96 in noisy train data. It is more robust against Car, Airport and Subway noises with accuracies 90, 88 and 81 in test sets A, B and C, respectively. Results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional CNN with the improvement of 6, 5 and 2 percentage in test set A, test set B and test sets C, respectively. It means that the proposed method is more robust against noisy data and handle these data effectively.

Does consideration of water routing affect simulated water and carbon dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems?

description: The cycling of carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is closely coupled with the cycling of water. An important mechanism connecting ecological and hydrological processes in terrestrial ecosystems is lateral flow of water along landscapes. Few studies, however, have examined explicitly how consideration of water routing affects simulated water and C dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems. The objective of this study is to explore how consideration of water routing in a process-based hydro-ecological model affects simulated water and C dynamics. To achieve that end, we rasterized the regional hydro-ecological simulation system (RHESSys) and employed the rasterized RHESSys (R-RHESSys) in a forested watershed. We performed and compared two contrasting simulations, one with and another without water routing. We found that R-RHESSys was able to correctly simulate major hydrological and ecological variables regardless of whether water routing was considered. When water routing was considered, however, soil water table depth and saturation deficit were simulated to be greater and spatially more heterogeneous. As a result, water (evaporation, transpiration, and evapotranspiration) and C (forest productivity, soil autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration) fluxes also were simulated to be spatially more heterogeneous compared to the simulation without water routing. When averaged for the entire watershed, the three simulated water fluxes were greater while C fluxes were smaller under simulation considering water routing compared to that ignoring water routing. In addition, the effects of consideration of water routing on simulated C and water dynamics were more apparent in dry conditions. Overall, the study demonstrated that consideration of water routing enabled R-RHESSys to better capture our preconception of the spatial patterns of water table depth and saturation deficit across the watershed. Because soil moisture is fundamental to the exchange of water and C fluxes among soil, vegetation and the atmosphere, ecosystem and C cycle models therefore need to explicitly represent water routing in order to accurately quantify the magnitude and patterns of water and C fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems.

The role of retrospective weather forecasts in developing daily forecasts of nutrient loadings over the southeast US
Creators: name: Sinha, T.

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

description: It is well known in the hydrometeorology literature that developing real-time daily streamflow forecasts in a given season significantly depends on the skill of daily precipitation forecasts over the watershed. Similarly, it is widely known that streamflow is the most important predictor in estimating nutrient loadings and the associated concentration. The intent of this study is to bridge these two findings so that daily nutrient loadings and the associated concentration could be predicted using daily precipitation forecasts and previously observed streamflow as surrogates of antecedent land surface conditions. By selecting 18 relatively undeveloped basins in the southeast US (SEUS), we evaluate the skill in predicting observed total nitrogen (TN) loadings in the Water Quality Network (WQN) by first developing the daily streamflow forecasts using the retrospective weather forecasts based on K-nearest neighbor (K-NN) resampling approach and then forcing the forecasted streamflow with a nutrient load estimation (LOADEST) model to obtain daily TN forecasts. Skill in developing forecasts of streamflow, TN loadings and the associated concentration were computed using rank correlation and RMSE (root mean square error), by comparing the respective forecast values with the WQN observations for the selected 18 Hydro-Climatic Data Network (HCDN) stations. The forecasted daily streamflow and TN loadings and their concentration have statistically significant skill in predicting the respective daily observations in the WQN database at all 18 stations over the SEUS. Only two stations showed statistically insignificant relationships in predicting the observed nitrogen concentration. We also found that the skill in predicting the observed TN loadings increases with the increase in drainage area, which indicates that the large-scale precipitation reforecasts correlate better with precipitation and streamflow over large watersheds. To overcome the limited samplings of TN in the WQN data, we extended the analyses by developing retrospective daily streamflow forecasts over the period 1979–2012 using reforecasts based on the K-NN resampling approach. Based on the coefficient of determination (R2Q-daily) of the daily streamflow forecasts, we computed the potential skill (R2TN-daily) in developing daily nutrient forecasts based on the R2 of the LOADEST model for each station. The analyses showed that the forecasting skills of TN loadings are relatively better in the winter and spring months, while skills are inferior during summer months. Despite these limitations, there is potential in utilizing the daily streamflow forecasts derived from real-time weather forecasts for developing daily nutrient forecasts, which could be employed for various adaptive nutrient management strategies for ensuring better water quality.

description: Geographic variations in river form are often estimated using the framework of downstream hydraulic geometry (DHG), which links spatial changes in discharge to channel width, depth, and velocity through power-law models. These empirical relationships are derived from limited in situ data and do not capture the full variability in channel form. Here, we present a dataset of 1.2 × 106 river widths in the Mississippi Basin measured from the Landsat-derived National Land Cover Dataset that characterizes width variability observationally. We construct DHG for the Mississippi drainage by linking DEM-estimated discharge values to each width measurement. Well-developed DHG exists over the entire Mississippi Basin, though individual sub-basins vary substantially from existing width-discharge scaling. Comparison of depth predictions from traditional depth–discharge relationships with a new model incorporating width into the DHG framework shows that including width improves depth estimates by, on average, 24%. Results suggest that channel geometry derived from remotely sensed imagery better characterizes variability in river form than do the assumptions of DHG.

description: AbstractViruses have evolved elaborate mechanisms to target many aspects of the host's immune response. The cytokine IFN-γ plays a central role in resistance of the host to infection via direct antiviral effects as well as modulation of the immune response. In this study, we demonstrate that the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) immediate-early protein, BZLF1, inhibits the IFN-γ signaling pathway. BZLF1 decreases the ability of IFN-γ to activate a variety of important downstream target genes, such as IRF-1, p48, and CIITA, and prevents IFN-γ-induced class II MHC surface expression. Additionally, BZLF1 inhibits IFN-γ-induced STAT1 tyrosine phosphorylation and nuclear translocation. Finally, we demonstrate that BZLF1 decreases expression of the IFN-γ receptor, suggesting a mechanism by which EBV may escape antiviral immune responses during primary infection.

description: The vortex lattice melting transition in single crystals Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d was studied by the in-plane resistivity measurements in magnetic fields tilted away from the c-axis to the ab-plane. In order to avoid the surface barrier effect which hinders the melting transition in the conventional transport measurements, we used the Corbino geometry of electric contacts. For the first time, the complete Hc-Hab phase diagram of the melting-transition in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d is obtained. The c-axis melting field component Hc-melt exhibits the novel, step-wise dependence on the in-plane magnetic fields Hab which is discussed on the base of the crossing vortex lattice structure. The sharp change of resistance behavior observed near the ab-plane suggests transformation from first-order to second-order phase transition.

description: The O(n) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions is examined as quantum mechanics on an infinite-dimensional configuration space. Two metrics are defined in this space. One of these metrics is the same as Feynman's distance, but we show his conclusions concerning potential energy versus distance from the classical vacuum are incorrect. The potential-energy functional is found to have barriers; the configurations on these barriers are solitons of an associated sigma model with an external source. The tunneling amplitude is computed for the O(2) model and soliton condensation is shown to drive the phase transition at a critical coupling. We find the tunneling paths in the configuration space of the O(3) model and argue that these are responsible for the mass gap at $θ=0$. These tunneling paths have half-integer topological charge, supporting the conjecture due to Affleck and Haldane that there is a massless phase at $θ=π$.

description: Implicit learning theories assume that structural priming is based on an error-based prediction mechanism (e.g. Chang et al. [2006]. Becoming syntactic. Psychological Review, 113(2), 234–272.), which predicts stronger priming when the bias of the verb in the prime sentence towards a syntactic structure mismatches the actual sentence’s structure (inverse preference priming). We investigated whether structural priming and inverse preference priming are modulated by cognitive resources such as demand on memory. Experiments 1 and 2 showed inverse preference priming in a priming task that exerted a relatively low cognitive load (sentence reading followed by picture description), but Experiments 3 and 4 found no such effect in a more demanding task (i.e. sentence reading, sentence recognition judgment, picture description, and picture recognition judgment). In the less demanding experiments, structural priming was always stronger and inverse preference priming was marginally stronger. These findings suggest an important role of cognitive resources in error-based learning.

description: AbstractObjectiveTo determine herpes simplex virus (HSV)-2 and HSV-1 seroprevalence in women and men in Romania.MethodsA cross-sectional seroprevalence survey was conducted between 2004 and 2005 on a total of 1058 women and men representative of the population of Bucharest. All participants were aged 15–44 years and completed a structured questionnaire. A blood sample was collected to detect IgG anti-HSV-1 and HSV-2 serum antibodies using the HerpeSelect ELISA (Focus Diagnostics).ResultsA total of 761 women (median age 29 years) and 297 men (median age 29 years) were included. Overall, HSV-2 seroprevalence (15.2%) increased with age. Among women, HSV-2 seroprevalence increased from 11.0% in 15–19-year-olds to 38.3% in 40–44-year-olds. Among men, seroprevalence increased from 4.0% in 20–24-year-olds to 27.1% in 40–44-year-olds. HSV-2 seroprevalence was significantly higher among women than men (17.0% vs. 10.8%). HSV-1 seropositivity was high (87.2%) in all age groups, with no clear trend by age or by sex. In addition to older age and female sex, risk factors for HSV-2 included greater number of lifetime sexual partners, lower educational attainment, and history of genital vesicles. Lower educational level and rural residence were associated with a higher risk of HSV-1 seropositivity.ConclusionsIn Romania, HSV-2 seroprevalence was higher in women than men, and was within European limits and lower than that in Africa and the USA. In contrast, HSV-1 seroprevalence was generally higher than that previously recorded in similarly aged populations in Western Europe.
Coulomb cluster explosion boosted by an electrical pulse -- neutron source, diagnostic tool, and test of nuclear fusion efficiency

description: To greatly enhance output of fusion-produced neutrons in a laser-initiated Coulomb explosion of $D$ clusters, we propose to accelerate $D^+$ ions by an electrical pulse to the energies where the $D^+ + D$ collision cross-section is the highest. With $D^+$ ions bombarding a $D$-rich cathode, this solves a few problems simultaneously by (a) removing electron cloud hindering the Coulomb explosion, (b) utilizing up to $100 \%$ of the ions to hit the high-density packed nuclei, and (c) reaching highly increased cross-section of neutron production in a single $D^+ + D$ collision, by using a multi-layered target. We show that neutron output can reach up to $10^{15}$ per shot, which provides for a powerful and compact neutron source. We also consider the use of $E$-pulse acceleration for diagnostic purposes.

description: Simpson's paradox, or Yule-Simpson effect, arises when a trend appears in different subsets of data but disappears or reverses when these subsets are combined. We describe here seven cases of this phenomenon for chemo-kinematical relations believed to constrain the Milky Way disk formation and evolution. We show that interpreting trends in relations, such as the radial and vertical chemical abundance gradients, the age-metallicity relation, and the metallicity-rotational velocity relation (MVR), can lead to conflicting conclusions about the Galaxy past if analyses marginalize over stellar age and/or birth radius. It is demonstrated that the MVR in RAVE giants is consistent with being always strongly negative, when narrow bins of [Mg/Fe] are considered. This is directly related to the negative radial metallicity gradients of stars grouped by common age (mono-age populations) due to the inside out disk formation. The effect of the asymmetric drift can then give rise to a positive MVR trend in high-[alpha/Fe] stars, with a slope dependent on a given survey's selection function and observational uncertainties. We also study the variation of lithium abundance, A(Li), with [Fe/H] of AMBRE:HARPS dwarfs. A strong reversal in the positive A(Li)-[Fe/H] trend of the total sample is found for mono-age populations, flattening for younger groups of stars. Dissecting by birth radius shows strengthening in the positive A(Li)-[Fe/H] trend, shifting to higher [Fe/H] with decreasing birth radius; these observational results suggest new constraints on chemical evolution models. This work highlights the necessity for precise age estimates for large stellar samples covering wide spatial regions.

description: Josephson plasma resonance measurements under magnetic fields parallel to the CuO_2 layers as functions of magnetic field, temperature, and microwave frequency have been performed in Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+δ} single crystals with doping range being from optimal to under-doped side. The feature of the resonance is quite unique and cannot be explained by the conventional understandings of the Josephson plasma for H \parallel c, that requires a new theory including coupling effect between Josephson vortex lattice and Josephson plasma.

description: Intraocular candidiasis is a potentially sight-threatening complication of candidemia. While the incidence of candidemia in North America has increased, the prevalence of intraocular candidiasis appears to be decreasing. In the USA and Europe, an ophthalmic examination is recommended for all candidemic patients to rule out intraocular involvement. However, improvements in management, clarification of the diagnosis, and trends in the epidemiology of intraocular candidiasis suggest that some candidemia patients might be safely managed without the recommended dilated ophthalmic examination.

description: We review recent work on resonant Andreev tunneling through a strongly interacting quantum dot connected to a normal and to a superconducting lead. We derive a general expression for the current flowing in the structure and discuss the linear and non-linear transport in the nonperturbative regime. New effects associated to the Kondo resonance combined with the two-particle tunneling arise. The Kondo anomaly in the $I-V$ characteristics depends on the relative size of the gap energy and the Kondo temperature.

description: We cautiously review the treatment of pentaquark exotic baryons in chiral soliton models. We consider two examples and argue that any consistent and self-contained description must go beyond the mean field approximation that only considers the classical soliton and the canonical quantization of its (would-be) zero modes via collective coordinates.

description: OBJECTIVE: The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate temporal and geographical trends in the HIV epidemic among female sex workers (FSWs) recruited from various venues in China.

METHODS: Chinese and English peer-reviewed articles published between January 2000 and February 2013 were systematically searched. Standard meta-analysis methods were used to calculate the pooled HIV prevalence, in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines.

RESULTS: The national HIV prevalence among FSWs declined from 0.74% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37-1.49%) in 2000-2002 to 0.40% (95% CI 0.31-0.53%) in 2009-2011. All Chinese regions demonstrated significant declines in HIV prevalence, apart from the East and South Central regions, in which the epidemics stabilized at low/moderate levels. Despite a significant decline from 1.92% (95% CI 0.86-4.24%) to 0.87% (95% CI 0.65-1.18%) during 2000-2011, Southwest China still bore the greatest HIV disease burden. Nationwide, FSWs recruited from detention centres had the highest HIV prevalence (0.92%, 95% CI 0.46-1.88%), followed by voluntary counselling and testing sites (0.80%, 95% CI 0.46-1.67%) and entertainment venues (0.61%, 95% CI 0.47-0.79%). The prevalences among FSWs in high-, middle-, and low-tier entertainment venues were 0.59% (95% CI 0.32-1.45%), 0.92% (95% CI 0.50-1.77%), and 1.10% (95% CI 0.71-2.16%), respectively. High- and middle-tier FSWs had a significantly lower risk of HIV infection than lower-tier FSWs (high/low: odds ratio (OR) 0.48, 95% CI 0.40-0.59; middle/low: OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.37-0.66).

CONCLUSIONS: The HIV epidemic has shown a gradual declining or stabilizing trend among Chinese FSWs. Intervention efforts should be diverted to high-risk subgroups of FSWs, such as drug-using and low-tier FSWs.

description: A major question when attempting to eradicate and treat HIV-1 infection is how to reactivate latent proviruses. Stimulating HIV-1-specific cytolytic T-lymphocytes (CTL) has been shown to facilitate the elimination of the latent viral reservoir after viral reactivation. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are known to be capable of lowering both HIV-specific immunoreactions and general immune activation during HIV-1 infection. We hypothesized that the depletion of Treg cells could increase the HIV-1-specific cytolytic T-lymphocyte response and reactivate HIV-1 p24 production. This study included both HIV-infected patients who were antiviral treatment-naïve and patients with sustained viral responses to antiretroviral therapy (ART) for 1 or 5 years. We found that the HIV DNA levels in Treg cells were approximately 10-fold higher than those in non-Treg CD4(+) cells and that the depletion of Treg cells could enhance the frequency of HIV-1-specific CTL and immune activation after 5 years of effective ART. CD4+CD25+CD127-regulatory cells play multiple roles in maintaining HIV-1 p24 production in long-term ART patients. Treg cells may be a target for eliminating the latent HIV reservoir after effective long-term antiretroviral therapy.

description: We study the two-dimensional spin-charge separated Ginzburg-Landau theory containing U(1) gauge interactions as a semi-phenomenological model describing fluctuating condensates in high temperature superconductivity. Transforming the original GL action, we abstract the effective action of Cooper pair. Especially, we clarify how Cooper pair correlation evolves in the normal state from the point of view of spin-charge separation. Furthermore, we point out how Cooper pair couples to gauge field in a gauge-invariant way, stressing the insensitivity of Cooper pair to infrared gauge field fluctuation.

description: A nanoparticle (NP) formulation with 2′-(2-bromohexadecanoyl)-paclitaxel (Br-16-PX) conjugate was developed in these studies for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The lipophilic paclitaxel conjugate Br-C16-PX was synthesized and incorporated into lipid NPs where the 16-carbon chain enhanced drug entrapment in the drug delivery system and improved in vivo pharmacokinetics. The electron-withdrawing bromine group was used to facilitate the conversion of Br-C16-PX to paclitaxel at the tumor site. The developed system was evaluated in luciferase-expressing A549 cells in vitro and in an orthotopic NSCLC mouse model. The results demonstrated that the Br-C16-PX NPs had a higher maximum tolerated dose (75 mg/kg) than Taxol® (19 mg/kg) and provided significantly longer median survival (88 days versus 70 days, P<0.05) in the orthotopic NSCLC model. An improved pharmacokinetic profile was observed for the Br-C16-PX NPs at 75 mg/kg compared to Taxol at 19 mg/kg. The area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC)0–96 h of Br-C16-PX from the NPs was 91.7-fold and 49.6-fold greater than Taxol in plasma and tumor-bearing lungs, respectively, which provided sustained drug exposure and higher antitumor efficacy in the NP-treated group.

description: We examine skyrmionic field configurations on a spherical ferromagnet with large normal anisotropy. Exploiting variational concepts of angular momentum we find a new family of localized solutions to the Landau-Lifshitz equation that are topologically distinct from the ground state and not equivariant. Significantly, we observe an emergent spin-orbit coupling on the level of magnetization dynamics in a simple system without individual rotational invariance in spin and coordinate space.
