description: Objectives: To preliminarily evaluate the feasibility of maintenance therapy with reduced dose of intravenous abatacept (ABT) to 250 mg/body/month after achieving remission or low disease activity (LDA). Patients and methods: RA patients treated with ABT at 13 sites were enrolled in this prospective interventional pilot study during the period between March 2013 and March 2015. Inclusion criteria were (1) age at 20 years or older, (2) under treatment with monthly intravenous ABT at approved doses, (3) DAS28-CRP lower than 2.7 at least for 6 months, (4) agreed to join this trial with written informed consent and (5) body weight under 125 kg. Enrolled patients were maintained with intravenous monthly ABT at a reduced dose of 250 mg/body (MATADOR protocol). The primary end point was the proportion of the patients continued with MATADOR protocol at week 48. MATADOR protocol was discontinued upon disease flare or other reasons such as patients’ request or severe adverse event (AE). Disease activities and structural changes were also evaluated. Results: Fifty-three patients fulfilled the entry criteria and were followed for 1-year. MATADOR protocol was continued for 1-year in 43 (81%) of the evaluated patients. Three patients experienced severe AEs. Mean DAS28-CRP and remission rate were 1.56 and 88% when ABT reduced and 1.80 and 81% at 1-year, respectively. Structural remission was achieved in 34 out of 42 evaluated patients. Conclusions: Reduced dose of intravenous ABT was proposed as a feasible choice for maintenance therapy for RA after achievement of remission/LDA, although further randomized trials would be awaited.

description: Well-preserved Marattialean fertile fronds are analyzed in this paper that come from the Cisuralian Shanxi Formation of Yongchang, Gansu Province, northwestern China. In particular, synangium in fronds and in situ spores are analyzed in the lab. Data show that the synangium of this species contains between four and five radially arranged pedicellate sporangia. The spores of this plant are small, between 21 and 30 μm, monolete and microgranulate with no visible annule. The fossils presented in this study are included within the genus Cyathocarpus. Furthermore, these spore masses and spores in situ of this genus are described in detail at the first time as a component of the Cathaysian flora. Based on comparisons with previously reported fossil records of these plants, we determined a series of differences. Thus, the fossils presented here are referred to a new species. In addition, the reproductive organs of the new fossils described in this paper provide some valuable taxonomic information. Based on the paleogeographic distribution of Cyathocarpus and the position of paleoplates in Late Paleozoic, we speculated that one of the possible migrated routes of Cyathocarpus is from the Euramerica to the North China Block and Alashan Terrane, terminating in the South China Block.

description: The effects on structures of the earthquake with magnitude 7.8 on the Richter scale (moment magnitude scale) which took place in Pazarcik, Kahramanmaras, Turkiye at 04:17 a.m. local time (01:17 UTC) on February 6, 2023, are investigated by processing suitable seismic records using the open-source software OpenSeismoMatlab. The earthquake had a maximum Mercalli intensity of XI (Extreme) and it was followed by a Mw 7.5 earthquake nine hours later, centered 95 km to the north-northeast from the first. Peak and cumulative seismic measures as well as elastic response spectra, constant ductility (or isoductile) response spectra, and incremental dynamic analysis curves were calculated for two representative earthquake records of the main event. Furthermore, the acceleration response spectra of a large set of records were compared to the acceleration design spectrum of the Turkish seismic code. Based on the study, it is concluded that the structures were overloaded far beyond their normal design levels. This, in combination with considerable vertical seismic components, was a contributing factor towards the collapse of many buildings in the region. Modifications of the Turkish seismic code are required so that higher spectral acceleration values can be prescribed, especially in earthquake-prone regions.

description: This report analyses various business models and financial schemes that will potentially be employed to commercialise the e-SAFE solutions.

After setting out the context, by providing an overview of e-SAFE’s mission and purpose, this report sets out the foundations for developing the core e-SAFE actors’ business model, namely e-IPR and e-FOUNDATION, utilising the business model canvas methodology.
e-IPR will be the entity managing the relationships with e-SAFE’s target market and business partners and receive all license/royalty revenue emanating from such relationships. As a result, e-IPR will be the core e-SAFE trading company, in charge of holding and developing e-SAFE assets and trading profits.
e-FOUNDATION will act as the funding, financing and advocacy vehicle of e-SAFE, aiming to make e-SAFE affordable to the target customer segments that are not able to proceed with conventional financing. To this end, it will develop an array of financial/funding tools and schemes, which will be made available through new or existing One-Stop Shops in key target locations. Further, it will play an important advocacy role, engaging with stakeholders to promote deep seismic and energy renovation more generally.

This report also explores the financial/funding schemes/tools that e-FOUNDATION may have in store for its potential customers on a high-level basis, i.e. a dedicated crowdfunding platform (e-CROWD) incorporating a peer-to-peer lending platform, direct financing options, green bonds, energy trading via smart contracts as well as financial and fiscal incentives. D6.3 “White Paper for policy engagement” complements this exercise by aiming to design adaptable financial and fiscal incentives to be included in a template White Paper, to be used for advocacy purposes by e-FOUNDATION.

description: Most user-related data can be represented as a sequence of events associated with a timestamp and a collection of categorical labels. For example, the purchased basket of goods and the time of buying fully characterize the event of the store visit. Anticipation of the label set for the future event called the problem of temporal sets prediction, holds significant value, especially in such high-stakes industries as finance and e-commerce. A fundamental challenge of this task is the joint consideration of the temporal nature of events and label relations within sets. The existing models fail to capture complex time and label dependencies due to ineffective representation of historical information initially. We aim to address this shortcoming by presenting the framework with a specific way to aggregate the observed information into time- and set structure-aware views prior to transferring it into main architecture blocks. Our strong emphasis on input arrangement facilitates the subsequent efficient learning of label interactions. The proposed model is called Label-Attention NETwork, or LANET. We conducted experiments on four different datasets and made a comparison with four established models, including SOTA, in this area. The experimental results suggest that LANET provides significantly better quality than any other model, achieving an improvement up to $65 \%$ in terms of weighted F1 metric compared to the closest competitor. Moreover, we contemplate causal relationships between labels in our work, as well as a thorough study of LANET components' influence on performance. We provide an implementation of LANET to encourage its wider usage.

description: Kernel principal component analysis (kPCA) is a widely studied method to construct a low-dimensional data representation after a nonlinear transformation. The prevailing method to reconstruct the original input signal from kPCA -- an important task for denoising -- requires us to solve a supervised learning problem. In this paper, we present an alternative method where the reconstruction follows naturally from the compression step. We first approximate the kernel with random Fourier features. Then, we exploit the fact that the nonlinear transformation is invertible in a certain subdomain. Hence, the name \emph{invertible kernel PCA (ikPCA)}. We experiment with different data modalities and show that ikPCA performs similarly to kPCA with supervised reconstruction on denoising tasks, making it a strong alternative.

description: Did Jesus of Nazareth rise from the dead? One way in which this question can be answered in the positive that doesn't depend upon faith alone is by appeal to history, or to written accounts of what occurred in 1st century Judea. But it is arguable that this style of answer must, by itself, always fail to be rationally acceptable simply because resurrection is -it would seem- physically impossible. In order for this style of argument to be rationally acceptable, this barrier of the physical impossibility of resurrection must first be removed. If it is not removed, the arguer will if pushed be left more or less helplessly waving their hands in the direction of the supernatural. The Shroud of Turin potentially provides the only better line of argument, but is vulnerable to the same objection. In this note, we examine the nature of the failure of these arguments for the resurrection, and go on to suggest that the apparent physical impossibility of resurrection arises from an incomplete understanding of the physical world.

description: INTRODUÇÃO: O processo de envelhecimento expõe o indivíduo a alterações fisiológicas que têm como uma das consequências o declínio do processo cognitivo. Diante do crescimento exponencial da população idosa que é previsto para os próximos anos, estudos que analisem as ferramentas que possam estimular a manutenção da saúde mental destes tornam-se essenciais. Sabe-se que a atividade física pode assumir um importante papel na promoção de efeitos benéficos à cognição e, deste modo, um bom nível de aptidão física pode estar relacionado a uma boa condição cognitiva. OBJETIVOS: Correlacionar o nível de cognição global e a capacidade física funcional de idosos fisicamente ativos. MÉTODOS: A amostra foi composta por 21 idosos (69 ± 4,9 anos) participantes do Projeto Minha Melhor Idade, da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), no qual realizam exercício físico em meio aquático com a frequência de três dias por semana e duração de aproximadamente uma hora. Os sujeitos foram divididos em três grupos, de acordo com a escolaridade: superior completo (SC); ensino médio completo (EM); e baixa escolaridade (BE), tendo os componentes deste grupo estudado até, no máximo, 5 anos. Não foram incluídos na pesquisa indivíduos analfabetos. O nível de cognição global foi avaliado através do Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) e a capacidade física funcional foi determinada por meio do teste de caminhada de seis minutos (TC6). Verificou-se o grau de correlação entre as variáveis com o coeficiente de correlação de Pearson (r). A análise estatística foi feita por meio do programa IBM SPSS Statistics 23. RESULTADOS: Os resultados médios para o MOCA foram os seguintes: SC – 21,7 (± 2,6); EM – 22,0 (± 5,2); BE – 17,2 (± 3,0). Apenas três idosos atingiram a pontuação mínima (26) para o sujeito ser considerado normal, do ponto de vista cognitivo. No TC6, a média de distância percorrida (em metros) para cada grupo foi de: SC – 488,57 (± 61,5); EM – 507,67 (± 64,4); BE – 510,63 (± 61,0). A correlação encontrada no grupo SC foi considerada desprezível (r=0,032). Já para os grupos EM (r= 0,667) e BE (r= 0,687), constatou-se uma correlação moderada. Além disso, uma análise individualizada destes dois últimos grupos apresenta resultados importantes: no EM o sujeito com maior percurso no TC6 (587 metros) foi, também, o que obteve a maior pontuação no MOCA (29 pontos) e, no BE, o indivíduo com menor valor de TC6 (364 metros percorrido) obteve o menor escore no MOCA (12 pontos). CONCLUSÃO: É possível constatar que um bom nível da capacidade física funcional pode estar relacionado, de maneira moderada, à manutenção da saúde cognitiva de idosos com escolaridade menor que 12 anos. Deste modo, é importante conscientizar esta população sobre a necessidade da prática de atividade física

description: Individual participants in human society collectively exhibit aggregation behavior. In this study, we present a simple microscopic model of labor force migration based on the active Brownian particles framework. In particular, agent-based simulations show that the model produces clusters of agents from a random initial distribution. Furthermore, two empirical regularities called Zipf's and Okun's laws were observed. To reveal the mechanism underlying the reproduced aggregation phenomena, we use our microscopic model to derive an extended Keller--Segel system, which is a classic model describing the aggregation behavior of biological organisms called taxis. The obtained macroscopic system indicates that the concentration of the workforce in the real world can be explained through a new type of taxis central to human behavior, highlighting the relevance of urbanization to blow-up phenomena in the derived PDE system. We then characterize the transition between the aggregation and diffusion regimes both analytically and computationally. The predicted long-term dynamics of urbanization -- originating in the asymmetric natures of employed and unemployed agents -- are compared with global empirical data, particularly in the realms of labor statistics and urban indicators.

description: The beamforming capabilities of conformal cylindrical Huygens metasurface (HMS) coatings for linear antennas are assessed. It is shown that by engineering the phase-gradient profile of the HMS, the original omnidirectional radiation pattern of the linear antenna can be shaped to form multi- or single-beam configurations. A closed-form expression for the phase-insertion profile of the cylindrical coating required to achieve the desired radiation pattern profile is derived, and several full-wave numerical examples supporting our claims are reported. A configuration exploiting a realistic HMS layout is also discussed and it is shown that, by making the metasurface reconfigurable through the use of tunable lumped elements, the radiated beams can be dynamically steered in space. This new design methodology could find application in smart electromagnetic environment scenarios for dynamically rerouting the signal towards multiple users.

description: One of the biggest challenges forestry contractors face today is high employee fluctuation, resulting in unexperienced operators with minor background in forestry. On the other hand, forwarding shows a huge potential towards automation. An assistance system which semi-automates the loading process during a cut-to-length logging process would increase the productivity significantly, in particular for new operators. Especially for them, positioning the grapple and gripping the log without ground penetration are the most challenging parts of loading phases due to a high number of simultaneous control tasks. The presented assistance system is able to execute these phases completely automatically. The assistance system consists of two essential components, a log detection algorithm and a control system for driving the forestry crane.

description: We introduce and physically motivate the following problem in geometric combinatorics, originally inspired by analysing Bell inequalities. A grasshopper lands at a random point on a planar lawn of area 1. It then jumps once, a fixed distance d, in a random direction. What shape should the lawn be to maximize the chance that the grasshopper remains on the lawn after jumping? We show that, perhaps surprisingly, a disc-shaped lawn is not optimal for any d > 0. We investigate further by introducing a spin model whose ground state corresponds to the solution of a discrete version of the grasshopper problem. Simulated annealing and parallel tempering searches are consistent with the hypothesis that, for d < π−1/2, the optimal lawn resembles a cogwheel with n cogs, where the integer n is close to π(arcsin (√πd/2))−1. We find transitions to other shapes for d ≳ π−1/2.

description: In the present paper, a new approach for detonation nanodiamond (DND) deagglomeration is proposed. DND agglomerates of the size from 20 to 200 nm have been exposed to wet sonication assisted oxidative treatment with ozone under UV irradiation (Advanced Oxidation Process). Subsequent sonication and centrifugation gave a stable hydrosol of individual DND particles with negative zeta potential of −65 mV. The yield of the desired 4–5 nm fraction reached 33 wt%. Powder X-Ray Diffraction study showed no signs of DND crystalline core degradation, while the surface of particles was enriched significantly with carboxyl functional groups according to the data of Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy, that gave boost to the stability of DND hydrosol. The approach provides relatively high yield of deagglomerated detonation nanodiamond without impact of high temperatures on the DND particles. It also allows avoiding gas phase processes sticking to wet-chemistry that could be useful for process scalability.

description: We study Clark measures associated with general two-variable rational inner functions (RIFs) on the bidisk, including those with singularities, and with general $d$-variable rational inner functions with no singularities. We give precise descriptions of support sets and weights for such Clark measures in terms of level sets and partial derivatives of the associated RIF. In two variables, we characterize when the associated Clark embeddings are unitary, and for generic parameter values, we relate vanishing of two-variable weights with the contact order of the associated RIF at a singularity.

description: Participants’ mean ratings (and boxplots) of appraisal dimensions (z scores) as a function of the intended emotion of the vocal expressions. Error bars indicate 95% credible intervals and shaded areas indicate direction of theoretical predictions. Diamonds indicate mean appraisal ratings and the colour of the diamonds indicates if the associated Bayes Factor (BF) supports the prediction (green, BF > 3), supports a population mean close to zero (red, BF < 1/3), or if both hypotheses are equally likely (black, 3 > BF > 1/3). Thirty-one out of 36 (86%) mean ratings were in the predicted direction. For the remaining 5 predictions, 3 (8%) gave support for a mean close to zero and 2 (6%) did not support one hypothesis over the other.
title: The Effects of Salinity on the Growth and Survival of the Crayfish, Procambarus actus actus (Girard)

description: The white river crayfish, Procambarus acutus acutus was tested in low salinity water for growth and survival. Thirty animals were placed in each test pool at O, 4 and 8 ppt and grown for 75 days. Growth was defined as increase in carapace length and wet weight. Crayfish grew at a faster rate and had the lowest mortality at 4 ppt. Water hardness, defined as the total concentration of calcium and magnesium expressed as the calcium carbonate equivalent, ranged from 35 mg/1 to 195 mg/1. Pools of crayfish tested at concentrations of approximately 100 mg/1 total hardness exhibited the best growth rate. These experiments suggest that brackish water culture of the crayfish P. acutus acutus is possible. Tolerance of salt water may facilitate distribution of this species.
Unsupervised Feature Selection to Identify Important ICD-10 Codes for Machine Learning: A Case Study on a Coronary Artery Disease Patient Cohort

description: The use of International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes in healthcare presents a challenge in selecting relevant codes as features for machine learning models due to this system's large number of codes. In this study, we compared several unsupervised feature selection methods for an ICD code database of 49,075 coronary artery disease patients in Alberta, Canada. Specifically, we employed Laplacian Score, Unsupervised Feature Selection for Multi-Cluster Data, Autoencoder Inspired Unsupervised Feature Selection, Principal Feature Analysis, and Concrete Autoencoders with and without ICD tree weight adjustment to select the 100 best features from over 9,000 codes. We assessed the selected features based on their ability to reconstruct the initial feature space and predict 90-day mortality following discharge. Our findings revealed that the Concrete Autoencoder methods outperformed all other methods in both tasks. Furthermore, the weight adjustment in the Concrete Autoencoder method decreased the complexity of features.

description: Heuristic search is a powerful approach that has successfully been applied to a broad class of planning problems, including classical planning, multi-objective planning, and probabilistic planning modelled as a stochastic shortest path (SSP) problem. Here, we extend the reach of heuristic search to a more expressive class of problems, namely multi-objective stochastic shortest paths (MOSSPs), which require computing a coverage set of non-dominated policies. We design new heuristic search algorithms MOLAO* and MOLRTDP, which extend well-known SSP algorithms to the multi-objective case. We further construct a spectrum of domain-independent heuristic functions differing in their ability to take into account the stochastic and multi-objective features of the problem to guide the search. Our experiments demonstrate the benefits of these algorithms and the relative merits of the heuristics.

description: INTRODUÇÃO: A qualidade de vida é um amplo conceito que aborda a saúde física, o estado psicológico, as relações sociais, o nível de independência, e as relações com as características mais relevantes do seu meio ambiente, ou seja, qualidade de vida é estar em equilíbrio (JOIA et al., 2007). OBJETIVO: Identificar o estilo de vida dos idosos participantes do projeto minha melhor idade a partir do questionário “Pentáculo do bem estar”. MÉTODOS: Foi aplicado o questionário “Pentáculo do bem estar” em 20 idosos (71,7 ± 6,54 anos) participantes do projeto “Minha Melhor Idade” do Departamento de Educação Física da UFRN. Este instrumento avalia o estilo de vida a partir de 5 competências, a saber: i) nutrição; ii) estresse; iii) comportamento preventivo; iv) atividade física; e v) relacionamento social. Esse questionário é constituído de 15 questões, com 4 opções de respostas (i.e., nunca, raramente, quase sempre e sempre). Para análise dos dados foram realizados os cálculos de medidas absolutas e relativas quanto à frequência de respostas. RESULTADOS: A partir dos dados obtidos podemos observar que 77% das respostas dos participantes foi o descritor “sempre” (nutrição = 77%, estresse = 75%, comportamento preventivo = 92%, atividade física = 62% e relacionamento social = 82%); “quase sempre” correspondeu a 11% das respostas (nutrição = 12%, estresse = 13%, comportamento preventivo = 0%, atividade física = 20% e relacionamento social = 8%); o “descritor raramente” obteve 8% das respostas (nutrição = 5%, estresse = 8%, comportamento preventivo = 5%, atividade física = 13% e relacionamento social = 7%); e “nunca” correspondeu a 4% das respostas (nutrição = 7%, estresse = 3%, comportamento preventivo = 3%, atividade física = 5% e relacionamento social = 3%). CONCLUSÃO: Com isso, concluímos que o publico participante da pesquisa demonstrou uma grande preocupação com sua saúde, juntamente com outros indicadores de bem estar. Faz-se necessário continuar estimulando cada vez mais a sociedade para que todas as pessoas melhorem seus hábitos, consequentemente melhorando o bem estar dos mesmos.

description: [transcription] Naples, 7 de décembre 1774.

Monsieur,

Pardonnez la liberté que je prends en vous adressant Monsieur Bernard Poyet, architecte français qui aura l'honneur de vous présenter cette lettre, il est modeste et il me semble avoir du talent, quoique on n' a pas voulu en profiter ici. Ayant témoigné l'envie de voir les antiquités et d'y faire quelques dessins. J'ai cru lui faire un service essentiel en lui procurant le moyen de vous faire [v] sa cour, sachant Monsieur combien vous aimez et vous protégez les arts.

Nous avons perdu comme vous avez su notre bon ami et mon beau frère, le comte de Warwick. Une de ses dernières prières, quand j'ai pris congé de lui à Londres, était de me resouvenir de vous quand les deux dernières tomes de ma collection sortiraient. Après bien des embrouilles et des revers l'ouvrage touche actuellement à sa fin. Aussitôt que je reçois des exemplaires du troisième tomme qui vient d'être fini à Florence, je [r] me ferai un plaisir de vous remettre une et de même du quatrième. J'ai dirigé les dessins et les gravures et je me flatte que jusqu'ici il n'y a pas eu de monuments d'antiquité si fidélement rendus. M. d'Hancarville seul a fait les dissertations. J'aurais bien voulu qu'il ne s'était pas si étendue, mais il faut avouer que ce malheureux a du talent et du génie, mais avec cela des défauts qui m'ont bien coûté des chagrins pour ne rien dire sur le chapitre de l'argent.

J'ai l'honneur d'être, Monsieur, avec beaucoup de considération et d'estime votre très humble et très obéissant serviteur.

Wme Hamilton.
