description: HIRA is an evolutionarily conserved histone chaperone that mediates replication-independent nucleosome assembly and is important for a variety of processes such as cell cycle progression, development, and senescence. Here we have used a chromatin sequencing approach to determine the genome-wide contribution of HIRA to nucleosome organization in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Cells lacking HIRA experience a global reduction in nucleosome occupancy at gene sequences, consistent with the proposed role for HIRA in chromatin reassembly behind elongating RNA polymerase II. In addition, we find that at its target promoters, HIRA commonly maintains the full occupancy of the −1 nucleosome. HIRA does not affect global chromatin structure at replication origins or in rDNA repeats but is required for nucleosome occupancy in silent regions of the genome. Nucleosome organization associated with the heterochromatic (dg-dh) repeats located at the centromere is perturbed by loss of HIRA function and furthermore HIRA is required for normal nucleosome occupancy at Tf2 LTR retrotransposons. Overall, our data indicate that HIRA plays an important role in maintaining nucleosome architecture at both euchromatic and heterochromatic loci.

description: When scuba diving under a physical overhead such as a cave, a mine, a shipwreck, or under a virtual overhead due to decompression requirements, it makes it impossible to safely access the surface in the event of an emergency. Therefore, diving with overhead is often described as technical diving. In this research, I address how technical divers in Outaouais, Quebec, practice this risky sport with unforgiving consequences. Based on fieldwork in Outaouais, I focus on divers, including myself, who perform trimix dives deeper than 200 feet. I argue that the process of becoming a deep diver is a lifelong journey where a diver learns to adapt to a milieu hostile to human life. The basic skills are acquired during classes to ensure that a novice diver will survive in this limit-environment. As divers bend the rules and take more risks to go deeper for longer lengths of time, they will go through a series of limit-experiences and near misses that are essential to their development and found to be regenerative. In turn, those limit-experiences and near-miss events shared with teammates create mutual trust. It is this trust that becomes the foundation of the team and allows the team to improve upon existing techniques and increase the depth and difficulty of their dives.

The impact of experience on private target acquisition in high-technology industries

Year: 2024

description: This paper investigates the impact of an acquirer's experience on the acquisition of private firms (i.e.; private target acquisition) in high-technology industries by analyzing a dataset of NASDAQ-listed firms operating in information technology (IT) industries. Specifically, this paper examines whether two types of experience (i.e.; early venture capital (VC)-backed experience and prior mergers and acquisitions (M&A) experience) matter to the acquisition. We find that both types of experience have positive effects on private target acquisition, while only prior M&A experience positively influences public target acquisition, implying that early VC-backed experience is effective in mitigating information asymmetry related to private target acquisition and exploring opportunities for value creation. We also find that an acquirer's growth performance and absorptive capacity prior to the acquisition enhance the positive effects of the experiences on private target acquisition.

description: We present a new technology for super-resolution fluorescence imaging, based on conical diffraction. Conical diffraction is a linear, singular phenomenon, taking place when a laser beam is diffracted through a biaxial crystal. We use conical diffraction in a thin biaxial crystal to generate illumination patterns that are more compact than the classical Gaussian beam, and use them to generate a super-resolution imaging modality.While there already exist several super-resolution modalities, our technology (biaxial super-resolution: BSR) is distinguished by the unique combination of several performance features. Using BSR super-resolution data are achieved using low light illumination significantly less than required for classical confocal imaging, which makes BSR ideal for live-cell, long-term time-lapse super-resolution imaging. Furthermore, no specific sample preparation is required, and any fluorophore can be used. Perhaps most exciting, improved resolution BSR-imaging resolution enhancement can be achieved with any type of objective no matter the magnification, numerical aperture, working distance, or the absence or presence of immersion medium.In this article, we present the first implementation of BSR modality on a commercial confocal microscope. We acquire and analyze validation data, showing high quality super-resolved images of biological objects, and demonstrate the wide applicability of the technology. We report live-cell super-resolution imaging over a long period, and show that the light dose required for super-resolution imaging is far below the threshold likely to generate phototoxicity.

description: We present a novel pilot search for gravitational lenses in the mJIVE-20 survey, which observed 24 903 radio sources selected from Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty cm (FIRST) with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at an angular resolution of 5 mas. We have taken the visibility data for an initial 3640 sources that were detected by the mJIVE-20 observations and re-mapped them to make wide-field images, selecting 14 sources that had multiple components separated by >= 100 mas, with a flux ratio of <= 15:1 and a surface brightness consistent with gravitational lensing. Two of these candidates are re-discoveries of gravitational lenses found as part of the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS). The remaining 12 candidates were then re-observed at 1.4 GHz and then simultaneously at 4.1 and 7.1 GHz with the VLBA to measure the spectral index and surface brightness of the individual components as a function of frequency. Ten were rejected as core-jet or core-hotspot(s) systems, with surface brightness distributions and/or spectral indices inconsistent with gravitational lensing, and one was rejected after lens modelling demonstrated that the candidate lensed images failed the parity test. The final lens candidate has an image configuration that is consistent with a simple lens mass model, although further observations are required to confirm the lensing nature. Given the two confirmed gravitational lenses in the mJIVE-20 sample, we find a robust lensing rate of 1:(318 +/- 225) for a statistical sample of 635 radio sources detected on mas-scales, which is consistent with that found for CLASS.

description: We have developed a complete 100 kHz ultrasonic recording system. The primary components of the system are a SensComp Series 600 Instrument Grade Electrostatic Transducer, custom printed circuit board (PCB), wide-bandwidth instrumentation amplifier, linear-phase filter, fully differential 16-bit analog to digital converter (ADC) sampling at 840 kHz, 168 MHz STM32F4 32-bit microcontroller, and a direct 100 Mbps Ethernet connection. A host computer running a custom application written in C++ provides a unified computer interface that allows the user to control all aspects of the system and provides a real time spectrogram. The system is designed for general use but has been initially used to study the ultrasonic vocalizations of rodents. We demonstrate the system by recording a well-established call made by Long-Evans rats termed 50-kHz vocalizations. The system was also designed with possible physical measurements in mind, e.g., distance, temperature, humidity, and gas mixture ratios.

description: Octadecyl methacrylate-based monolithic capillary columns were prepared using octadecyl methacrylate as the monomer, ethylene dimethacrylate as the cross-linking agent, 2-acryloylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid as the ionizable monomer, responsible for a negatively charged stationary phase surface and able to support a cathodic electrosmotic flow, and amyl alcohol and 1,4-butanediol as porogenic solvents. The repeatability of the morphological aspect of the monolithic material was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The uniformity along the same monolithic bed was also investigated by SEM. Replicate determinations of surface area and pore volume were also performed and compared. The repeatability of the obtained electrochromatographic efficiencies for separations of alkylbenzenes using the stationary phases prepared was also evaluated. A column that had a plate height of 31 μm was tested for separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Even though minimal possible variation of experimental parameters was maintained, it was not possible to reproduce the stationary phases of the monolithic columns, since the relative standard deviation for the efficiencies obtained on columns prepared from the same polymerization mixture composition was 62%. The lack of repeatability for the efficiency is thought to be a result of limited homogeneity of the monolithic globular structures along the length of the majority of the prepared columns. The poor precision of preparation was justified by the copolymerization reaction that occurs in the presence of 2, 2′-azobisisobutyronitrile as the initiator agent, whose decomposition starts at the moment that this is added to the reaction mixture.

description: H I intensity mapping data traces the large-scale structure matter distribution using the integrated emission of neutral hydrogen gas (H I). Cross-correlation of the intensity maps with optical galaxy surveys can mitigate foreground and systematic effects, but has been shown to significantly depend on galaxy evolution parameters of the H I and the optical sample. Previously, we have shown that the shot noise of the cross-correlation scales with the H I content of the optical samples, such that the shot noise estimation infers the average H I masses of these samples. In this paper, we present an adaptive framework for the crosscorrelation of H I intensity maps with galaxy samples using our implementation of the halo model formalism which utilizes the halo occupation distribution of galaxies to predict their power spectra. We compare two H I population models, tracing the spatial halo and the galaxy distribution, respectively, and present their auto- and cross-power spectra with an associated galaxy sample. We find that the choice of the H I model and the distribution of the H I within the galaxy sample have little impact for the shape of the auto- and cross-correlations, but significantly affects the measured shot noise amplitude of the estimators, a finding we confirm with simulations. We demonstrate parameter estimation of the H I halo occupation models and advocate this framework for the interpretation of future experimental data, with the prospect of determining the H 1 masses of optical galaxy samples via the cross-correlation shot noise.

description: Introduction and objective: In developed countries, 60% of the neonatal hearing loss is hereditary and genetic analysis is the higher performance diagnostic procedure. With this paper we intend to demonstrate the importance of the genetic study of infant hearing loss, and the need for its implementation in Castilla y León (Spain). Material and method: We present a narrative review in which from the statements of national and international agencies responsible for ensuring the good performance of detection and early intervention of child hearing loss programs, we'll clear the unanimity of criteria regarding the need for such studies. Results: Genetic diagnosis allows understanding the cause of the deafness, establishing the possibility of specific treatment and prognosis. A general unanimous methodology, seeks to reach the etiological diagnosis that must be led by a genetics specialist who will ultimately be responsible for genetic counselling. Discussion: After applying for more than 10 years in Castilla y León (Spain) a "program of detection and early intervention of child hearing loss" and in view of the results, we consider absolutely necessary implementation of the genetic study of hearing loss, with their corresponding genetic counseling. Conclusions: There is unanimity of criteria in effectiveness and need for genetic diagnosis of infant hearing loss, we consider fundamental implementation in Castilla y León (Spain).

description: The Tonga-Kermadec arc in the SW Pacific comprises a chain of more than 90 volcanic complexes. A continuous 400-km long chain of volcanic activity along the central portion of the Tonga arc has become the focus of intensive research, extending previous studies that have focused on the southern Kermadec chain. Earlier interpretations of the Tonga arc have focused on a perceived lack of volcanism between ~21°S and ~27°S, adjacent to a bend in the trench caused by the collision of the subducting Louisville Seamount Chain (LSC). During swath mapping in 2002, it was revealed that this portion of the arc, including the Louisville and Monowai segments, is in fact one of the most volcanically active parts of the Tonga-Kermadec system. At this location, a combination of oblique convergence of the Pacific Plate and southward compression due to the collision of the LSC has resulted in left-lateral strike-slip faulting and rifting of the arc crust. This has produced a series of left-stepping arc transverse graben and horst structures that localize the voluminous volcanic activity. For this study, a new 1:250,000 scale geological map of the Louisville and Monowai segments has been constructed as a framework for a quantitative analysis of arc volcanism and the eruptive history of these segments. Two types of volcanoes dominate the arc front: deep caldera systems (collapse structures formed due to the evacuation of magma) within the arc rifts, and smaller volcanic cones between the rifts. The cone volcanoes tend to have small summit craters (<10 km3) whereas the large caldera volcanoes have major depressions of up to 50 km3. The cones are relatively undeformed, whereas the larger calderas are affected by multiple stages of collapse, asymmetric subsidence, and distortion caused by regional stresses. Surveys of the crater walls of the cone volcanoes show a predominance of volcaniclastic deposits, whereas the caldera volcanoes contain a high proportion of coherent lava flows. The caldera volcanoes also show a prevalence of basaltic melts compared to the more andesitic and dacitic cones. The largest caldera volcano is the Monowai volcanic complex (25°53’S) occupying a deep depression (Monowai Rift Graben) that crosses the arc front. The volcanic complex consists of a large caldera (12 km wide, 1600 m deep) and an adjacent stratovolcano (Monowai Cone) rising nearly to sea level. We suggest that the different types of volcanoes along the Louisville and Monowai segments reflect the influence of deep structures within the arc crust that have localized strikeslip and normal faulting.

description: Control of atmospheric black carbon (BC) and brown carbon (BrC) has been proposed as an important pathway to climate change mitigation, but sources of BC and BrC are still not well understood. In order to better identify the role of modern heavy-duty diesel engines on the production of BC and BrC, emissions from a heavy-duty diesel engine operating with different emission control strategies were examined using a source dilution sampling system. The effect of a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) on light-absorbing carbon (LAC) was evaluated at three steady-state engine operation modes: idle, 50% speed and load, and 100% speed and load. LAC was measured with four different engine configurations: engine out, DOC out, DPF out, and engine out with an altered combustion calibration. BC and BrC emission rates were measured with the Aethalometer (AE-31). EC and BC emission rates normalized to the mass of CO2 emitted increased with increasing engine speed and load. Emission rates normalized to brake-specific work did not exhibit similar trends with speed and load, but rather the highest emission rate was measured at idle. EC and OC emissions were reduced by 99% when the DOC and DPF architecture was applied. The application of a DPF was equally effective at removing 99% of the BC fraction of PM, proving to be an important control strategy for both LAC and PM. BC emissions were unexpectedly increased across the DOC, seemingly due to a change aerosol optical properties. Removal of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) flow due to simulated EGR cooler failure caused a large increase in OC and BrC emission rates at idle, but had limited influence during high load operation. LAC emissions proved to be sensitive to the same control strategies effective at controlling the total mass of diesel PM.Implications: In the context of black carbon emissions, very small emission rates of brown carbon were measured over a range of control technologies and engine operating conditions. During specific idle engine operation without EGR and adjusted fueling conditions, brown carbon can be formed in significant amounts, requiring careful management tactics. Control technologies for particulate matter are very effective for light-absorbing carbon, reducing black carbon emissions to near zero for modern engines equipped with a DPF. Efforts to control atmospheric brown carbon need to focus on other sources other than modern diesel engines, such as biomass burning.

description: The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) is an experimental paradigm in the form of a card game designed to simulate realistic decision-making situations with unknown premises and uncertain consequences. In psychological research, the IGT is frequently used to assess the decision-making ability of specific population groups. However, it has been observed that IGT is frequently varied in its implementation. Variations include, for example, the instructions provided to subjects, the characteristics of the cards, and the calculation of a performance score. This methodological flexibility impairs comparison across studies and generalization of results, and may threaten construct validity. To date, however, there has been no systematic examination of methodological flexibility in IGT observable in psychological research of which the author is aware. The meta-method analysis planned here aims to identify and quantify variation in the implementation and scoring of the IGT.

Motivational Factors for Older Adults Engaging in Exercise Programs and the Role of Depression: A Systematic Literature Review
Creators: name: Hosseini, Sarah
Publisher: name: Midwestern University
Year: 2024
Subjects: Clinical Psychology

description:         Exercise has been shown to have physical and mental health benefits for various age groups, including older adults (Fiske et al., 2009). However, older adults often report barriers to exercising, such as a lack of motivation (McPhee et al., 2016). Additionally, research suggests that depression plays a role in one’s motivation to initiate and maintain participation in exercise programs (Sjörs et al., 2014). The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic literature review to examine 1) the role of motivation in exercise engagement for older adults, in general, and 2) the role of depression in motivating older adults to engage in exercise. For the current study, a literature review was conducted to systematically review and critically evaluate peer-reviewed research on the role that motivation plays regarding engagement in an exercise program for older adults, and the role that depression plays in older adults’ motivation to engage in exercise programs. Six databases and the Google Scholar search engine were utilized to identify studies satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. An archival search strategy was also utilized to ensure comprehensive identification of the relevant research studies. Studies in this review were organized in both table and figure format based on operationalization of engagement to help evaluate relevant results across studies. For studies that examined older adults’ motivation to engage in an exercise program, in general (n = 15 studies), robust motivators were social connectedness, autonomy, high self-efficacy, supportive leadership, and desire to improve mental well-being, while the most consistent barriers were chronic medical conditions, poor physical health, and lack of time. Based on the sparse amount of research available accounting for the role of depression in motivating older adults to engage in exercise (n = 4 studies), depression was shown to mitigate older adults’ engagement in an exercise program, in general, and social connectedness was a consistent motivator across all three forms of exercise engagement explored in this literature review. Results, while preliminary, can lay the foundation for future research in designing motivational exercise programs for older adults, including depressed individuals.

description: Though RecQL4 was shown to be essential for the initiation of DNA replication in mammalian cells, its role in initiation is poorly understood. Here, we show that RecQL4 is required for the origin binding of Mcm10 and Ctf4, and their physical interactions and association with replication origins are controlled by the concerted action of both CDK and DDK activities. Although RecQL4-dependent binding of Mcm10 and Ctf4 to chromatin can occur in the absence of pre-replicative complex, their association with replication origins requires the presence of the pre-replicative complex and CDK and DDK activities. Their association with replication origins and physical interactions are also targets of the DNA damage checkpoint pathways which prevent initiation of DNA replication at replication origins. Taken together, the RecQL4-dependent association of Mcm10 and Ctf4 with replication origins appears to be the first important step controlled by S phase promoting kinases and checkpoint pathways for the initiation of DNA replication in human cells.

description: The cell-surface molecule CD44 plays a major role in the regulation of cancer stem cells. The CD44 inhibitor compound N′-(1-dimethylaminomethyl-2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)-2-(benzyloxy)benzohydrazide (OYB), anticancer agent is practically insoluble in water. Hence, the solid dispersion (SD) technique was used for enhancing the dissolution of OYB. The SD of OYB was achieved using OYB:poloxamer 188 (1:7) via the fusion method. The anticancer activities of the free-OYB solution and the SD formulation (OYB-SD) were investigated in-vitro. The dissolution rate of OYB-SD (1:7) increased by 2-fold compared with the untreated drug (51.52–100% at pH 1.2 and 8.25–19.15% at pH 7 buffer). In addition, OYB-SD afforded 3-folds cytotoxic effect, against LoVo cells, compared to the untreated compound (IC50 4.72 ± 0.57 and 13.97 ± 0.90 µg/ml, respectively) and against HepG2 (∼3-fold) (4.98 ± 0.368 and 13.85 ± 1.82 µg/ml, respectively) and MCF-7 (1.4-fold) cells (15.20 ± 0.20 and 21.12 ± 0.51 µg/ml, respectively), and enhanced the apoptotic potential in LoVo cells compared with free-OYB. The improved cytotoxic activity of the drug might be attributable to the enhanced dissolution of OYB.

ORIGAMI: A New Interface for Fuel Assembly Characterization with ORIGEN

description: ORIGAMI (ORIGen Assembly Isotopics) is a new interface to the well-established ORIGEN code
designed to enable simplified, 3-D depletion and decay calculations for used nuclear fuel (UNF) assemblies.
ORIGAMI calculates assembly characteristics through the use of individual discrete depletion nodes, corresponding to axial zones and pin locations. Using a nominal irradiation history, ORIGAMI individually calculates each node’s
isotopic composition using axial and radial relative power distribution maps to create a zone-specific burnup, enabling users to easily specify assembly-wide power distributions for modeling.
ORIGAMI includes several useful capabilities for UNF assembly analyses, including visualization of key parameters by generating MeshView-compatible output files, generation of materials cards for MCNP and KENO for further source term analysis (for example, cask loading and dose studies for dry
storage and transport and simulation of full assemblies for NDA instrumentation studies). Additionally, ORIGAMI offers the ability to store individual depletion zone concentrations in an ORIGEN-compatible binary file for later re-evaluation (such as decay analysis of previously-depleted assemblies).
