description: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has revolutionized the treatment of various neurological and psychiatric disorders. However, recent findings highlight the significant clinical and molecular responses elicited by the mere insertion of DBS electrodes, termed ‘insertional effects.’ This review explores the clinical manifestations and underlying mechanisms of these effects, emphasizing their implications for neuromodulation therapies. A comprehensive literature search was conducted, examining studies that document the clinical benefits observed immediately following DBS electrode implantation in conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, chronic pain, and psychiatric disorders. The review delves into the molecular and cellular mechanisms, including neuroinflammatory responses and ion channel dynamics, that contribute to these insertional effects. Additionally, the potential for these effects to predict DBS efficacy and inform the development of closed-loop DBS systems is discussed. The insertional effects of DBS represent a crucial yet underappreciated phenomenon with significant implications for optimizing therapeutic protocols and enhancing patient outcomes. Recognizing and harnessing these effects could lead to more personalized and effective neuromodulation strategies, advancing the field of DBS and improving treatment for a range of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders. This review examines the immediate effects that occur when DBS electrodes are implanted, referred to as insertional effects, which can result in both beneficial and adverse outcomes. By understanding these effects, clinicians can better tailor DBS treatments and develop new technologies that improve patient outcomes.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic led to an unprecedented demand for projections of disease burden and healthcare utilization under scenarios ranging from unmitigated spread to strict social distancing policies. In response, members of the Johns Hopkins Infectious Disease Dynamics Group developed flepiMoP (formerly called the COVID Scenario Modeling Pipeline), a comprehensive open-source software pipeline designed for creating and simulating compartmental models of infectious disease transmission and inferring parameters through these models. The framework has been used extensively to produce short-term forecasts and longer-term scenario projections of COVID-19 at the state and county level in the US, for COVID-19 in other countries at various geographic scales, and more recently for seasonal influenza. In this paper, we highlight how the flepiMoP has evolved throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to address changing epidemiological dynamics, new interventions, and shifts in policy-relevant model outputs. As the framework has reached a mature state, we provide a detailed overview of flepiMoP's key features and remaining limitations, thereby distributing flepiMoP and its documentation as a flexible and powerful tool for researchers and public health professionals to rapidly build and deploy large-scale complex infectious disease models for any pathogen and demographic setup.

description: The cerebellum has been consistently shown to be atypical in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, despite its known role in sensorimotor function, there is limited research on its association with sensory over-responsivity (SOR), a common and impairing feature of ASD. Thus, this study sought to examine functional connectivity of the sensorimotor cerebellum in ASD compared to typically developing (TD) youth and investigate whether cerebellar connectivity is associated with SOR. Resting-state functional connectivity of the sensorimotor cerebellum was examined in 54 ASD and 43 TD youth aged 8-18 years. Using a seed-based approach, connectivity of each sensorimotor cerebellar region (defined as lobules I-IV, V-VI and VIIIA&B) with the whole brain was examined in ASD compared to TD youth, and correlated with parent-reported SOR severity. Across all participants, the sensorimotor cerebellum was functionally connected with sensorimotor and visual regions, though the three seed regions showed distinct connectivity with limbic and higher-order sensory regions. ASD youth showed differences in connectivity including atypical connectivity within the cerebellum and increased connectivity with hippocampus and thalamus compared to TD youth. More severe SOR was associated with stronger connectivity with cortical regions involved in sensory and motor processes and weaker connectivity with cognitive and socio-emotional regions, particularly prefrontal cortex. These results suggest that atypical cerebellum function in ASD may play a role in sensory challenges in autism.

description: Generating artistic portraits from face photos presents a complex challenge that requires high-quality image synthesis and a deep understanding of artistic style and facial features. Traditional generative adversarial networks (GANs) have made significant strides in image synthesis; however, they encounter limitations in artistic portrait generation, particularly in the nuanced disentanglement and reconstruction of facial features and artistic styles. This paper introduces a novel approach that overcomes these limitations by employing feature disentanglement and reconstruction techniques, enabling the generation of artistic portraits that more faithfully retain the subject’s identity and expressiveness while incorporating diverse artistic styles. Our method integrates six key components: a U-Net-based image generator, an image discriminator, a feature-disentanglement module, a feature-reconstruction module, a U-Net-based information generator, and a cross-modal fusion module, working in concert to transform face photos into artistic portraits. Through extensive experiments on the APDrawing dataset, our approach demonstrated superior performance in visual quality, achieving a significant reduction in the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) score to 61.23, highlighting its ability to generate more-realistic and -diverse artistic portraits compared to existing methods. Ablation studies further validated the effectiveness of each component in our method, underscoring the importance of feature disentanglement and reconstruction in enhancing the artistic quality of the generated portraits.

description: Coronavirus (CoV) cause considerable morbidity and mortality in humans and other mammals, as evidenced by the emergence of Severe Acute Respiratory CoV (SARS-CoV) in 2003, Middle East Respiratory CoV (MERS-CoV) in 2012, and SARS-CoV-2 in 2019. Although poorly characterized, natural genetic variation in human and other mammals modulate virus pathogenesis, as reflected by the spectrum of clinical outcomes ranging from asymptomatic infections to lethal disease. Using multiple human epidemic and zoonotic Sarbecoviruses, coupled with murine Collaborative Cross genetic reference populations, we identify several dozen quantitative trait loci that regulate SARS-like group-2B CoV pathogenesis and replication. Under a Chr4 QTL, we deleted a candidate interferon stimulated gene, Trim14 which resulted in enhanced SARS-CoV titers and clinical disease, suggesting an antiviral role during infection. Importantly, about 60 % of the murine QTL encode susceptibility genes identified as priority candidates from human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) studies after SARS-CoV-2 infection, suggesting that similar selective forces have targeted analogous genes and pathways to regulate Sarbecovirus disease across diverse mammalian hosts. These studies provide an experimental platform in rodents to investigate the molecular-genetic mechanisms by which potential cross mammalian susceptibility loci and genes regulate type-specific and cross-SARS-like group 2B CoV replication, immunity, and pathogenesis in rodent models. Our study also provides a paradigm for identifying susceptibility loci for other highly heterogeneous and virulent viruses that sporadically emerge from zoonotic reservoirs to plague human and animal populations.

description: We study the "mixed spin" isotropic ladder system having S=1 spins on one leg and S=1/2 spins on the other, with general-type exchange interactions between spins on neighboring rungs. A set of model Hamiltonians with exact ground states in the form of a certain matrix product wave function is obtained. We show that sufficiently strong frustration can lead to exotic singlet ground states with infinite (exponential) degeneracy. We also list a couple of rather simple models with nontrivial ground states, including a model with only bilinear exchange.

VALUE OF LEARNING AND TEACHING IN THE ARTS

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: It is well known that the arts suffer from marginalisation in schools throughout the world. That we privilege literacy and numeracy over the arts is testament to the fact we place greater value on the former as the pinnacle of what counts as knowledge. The arts are squeezed into the margins of a jam-packed curriculum, making it apparent what is highly esteemed and what is considered superfluous. It is tempting to lapse into a debate on the relative merits of the disciplines, but this is invariably counterproductive. Literacy and numeracy are high-stakes in the world and we do our students a disservice if we do not grow their capabilities in these areas. However, we also do them an immense disservice if we ignore their creative, imaginative and artistic abilities. Picasso claimed that children are born artists but we educate them out of it (Robinson, 2007). In addition, Wright (2010) argues: The schooling process often is at odds with young children’s imaginative and creative dispositions. It is biased toward teaching children the rule-bound structured symbol systems, where written letters, words and numbers are seen as a ‘higher status’ mode of representation over self-derived, visual thinking and reflection.

description: – Despite technical advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and new iterations of drug-eluting stents (DES), complications still occur, including stent thrombosis and in-stent restenosis (ISR). Drug-coated balloons (DCB) provide a promising option for the treatment of coronary lesions – particularly when DES are undesirable or contraindicated – allowing for PCI without the implantation of metallic devices, thus adhering to the ‘leave nothing behind’ principle. – A comprehensive literature search has been performed on PubMed, Web of Science and Cochrane, up to November 2024, with no significant restrictions. This article provides an overview of available DCB and summarizes the evidence supporting their use in different settings, including ISR, small-vessel disease, de novo large-vessel disease, and bifurcations. – Trials of DCB are heterogeneous with respect to population, sample size, follow-up, anatomical pattern, and device used. Furthermore, they usually have limited statistical power for clinical endpoints. Based on current knowledge, DES may be preferrable for DES-ISR, de novo lesions in large vessels and for the treatment of the main branch in true bifurcations, with DCB approved for small-vessel disease and selected ISR lesions. Ongoing trials are expected to provide definitive insights into the efficacy and safety of DCB in different scenarios.

description: Noncollinear magnetic states in clusters are studied by using the single-band Hubbard Hamiltonian. The unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) approximation is considered without imposing any symmetry constraints neither to the size or orientation of the local magnetic moments $$ nor to the local charge densities $$. A variety of qualitatively different selfconsistent solutions is obtained as a function of cluster size, structure, number of valence electrons $ν$ and Coulomb interaction strength $U/t$. This includes inhomogeneous density distributions, paramagnetic solutions, magnetic solutions with collinear moments and noncollinear spin arrangements that show complex antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic-like orders. The environment dependence of the magnetic properties is analyzed giving emphasis to the effects of antiferromagnetic frustrations in compact structures close to half-band filling. Electron correlation effects are quantified by comparing UHF and exact results for the local magnetic moments, total spin, spin-correlation functions and structural stability of 13-atom clusters. Goals and limitations of the present noncollinear approach are discussed.

description: Background and objectives Transgender and gender diverse (trans) health research has grown rapidly, highlighting the need to characterize the scientific evidence base. We conducted a systematic review of peer-reviewed research on disease burden and correlates in trans adolescents and adults over a 20-month period to identify knowledge gaps and assess methodological characteristics including measurement of gender identity, community engagement, and study quality. Data sources, eligibility criteria, and synthesis methods We searched seven databases using terms related to (a) transgender populations and (b) health or disease. Eligible studies were in English, French, or Spanish and reported original quantitative data on mental health or substance use conditions, infectious diseases, or noncommunicable conditions in at least 25 trans individuals aged 15+. Quality assessment was performed in duplicate on a 10% sample of articles and findings were summarized using narrative synthesis. Results The 328 included studies were conducted in 45 countries, with most from North America (54%) and limited research from South Asia (3%), Sub-Saharan Africa (3%), and the Middle East and North Africa (2%). Most studies used cross-sectional designs (73%) and convenience sampling (65%). Only 30% of studies reported any form of community engagement. Mental health and substance use disorders were the most studied area (77% of studies) and non-communicable conditions the least (16%). Available data indicated that trans populations experience high disease burden with considerable heterogeneity within and across settings. Of 39 articles assessed for quality, 80% were rated as fair, 18% as poor, and 3% as good quality. Conclusions and implications Geographic, gender-specific, and topical gaps remain in trans health, but we found more research from African countries, with transmasculine people, and on non-communicable conditions than previous syntheses. Areas for growth in trans health research include community engagement, non-binary health, chronic and age-related conditions, and health determinants.

description: Image Captioning is a task that requires models to acquire a multi-modal understanding of the world and to express this understanding in natural language text. While the state-of-the-art for this task has rapidly improved in terms of n-gram metrics, these models tend to output the same generic captions for similar images. In this work, we address this limitation and train a model that generates more diverse and specific captions through an unsupervised training approach that incorporates a learning signal from an Image Retrieval model. We summarize previous results and improve the state-of-the-art on caption diversity and novelty. We make our source code publicly available online.

description: Density Functional Theory (DFT) is one of the most widely used methods for "ab initio" calculations of the structure of atoms, molecules, crystals, surfaces, and their interactions. Unfortunately, the customary introduction to DFT is often considered too lengthy to be included in various curricula. An alternative introduction to DFT is presented here, drawing on ideas which are well-known from thermodynamics, especially the idea of switching between different independent variables. The central theme of DFT, i.e. the notion that it is possible and beneficial to replace the dependence on the external potential v(r) by a dependence on the density distribution n(r), is presented as a straightforward generalization of the familiar Legendre transform from the chemical potential (μ) to the number of particles (N). This approach is used here to introduce the Hohenberg-Kohn energy functional and to obtain the corresponding theorems, using classical nonuniform fluids as simple examples. The energy functional for electronic systems is considered next, and the Kohn-Sham equations are derived. The exchange-correlation part of this functional is discussed, including both the local density approximation to it, and its formally exact expression in terms of the exchange-correlation hole. A very brief survey of various applications and extensions is included.

description: Three-dimensional multiparametric ultrasound (3D mpUS) shows promise for accurately diagnosing prostate cancer. However, its technical complexity presents usability challenges. Human Factor Engineering (HFE) studies the interaction between devices and users, by reducing human error, increasing productivity, and enhancing safety. The objective is to develop a training program for 3D mpUS using HFE (NCT04605276). This study employs a human-centered design approach, a principle of HFE, with a formative and summative phase. In the formative phase, six trainees underwent 3D mpUS training and iteratively provided feedback. The summative phase included 15 trainees who completed the finalized training, probe and ultrasound machine handling, contrast agent (CA) preparation, and conducting 3D mpUS. Performance was evaluated through observing 23 tasks. Feedback from the formative phase led to several improvements. In the summative phase, all pass criteria were met, most errors were related to CA administration or inadequate acquisition termination. Trainee confidence in independently performing 3D mpUS was high, with 93% of scans meeting quality standards. HFE proved effective in generating feedback to improve the training program for 3D mpUS acquisition. The training ensured that users were well prepared to perform the 3D mpUS procedure with minimal errors and a short learning curve.

description: N95 respirator contamination with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) during clinical care of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 is poorly understood. We performed a prospective observational study on healthcare provider's (HCP's) N95 respirators' and face shields' SARS-CoV-2 contamination during aerosol-generating procedures on SARS-CoV-2- positive patients housed in a COVID-19-specific unit. Medical masks worn on top of HCP's N95 respirators, and under face shields, during study aerosol-generating procedures were used as surrogates to detect contamination to avoid waste. Thirtythree HCPs were studied, and a total of 33 mask and 27 face shields were sampled. Masks were cut into 9 pieces and face shields were sampled twice, front and back, to determine locality of contamination; however, no positive samples were identified using standard polymerase chain reaction techniques with a CT value up to 40. All 9 mask piece samples were then pooled, as were face shield samples, using centrifugal concentration with polyethersulfone membranes. Once pooled and concentrated, overall, 9 (15%) samples were positive via real-time polymerase chain reaction: 5 from masks (15.2%) and 4 from face shields (14.8%).

description: We examine the role of spin twists in the formation of domain walls, often called stripes, by focusing on the spin textures found in the cluster spin glass phases of LaSrCuO and YCaBaCuO. To this end, we derive an analytic expression for the spin distortions produced by a frustrating bond, both near the core region of the bond and in the far field, and then derive an expression for interaction energies between such bonds. We critique our analytical theory by comparison to numerical solutions of this problem and find excellent agreement. By looking at collections of small numbers of such bonds localized in some region of a lattice, we demonstrate the stability of small ``clusters'' of spins, each cluster having its own orientation of its antiferromagnetic order parameter. Then, we display a domain wall corresponding to spin twists between clusters of locally ordered spins showing how spin twists can serve as a mechanism for stripe formation. Since the charges are localized in this model, we emphasize that these domain walls are produced in a situation for which no kinetic energy is present in the problem.

description: Vocal aging, a universal process of human aging, can largely affect one's language use, possibly including some subtle acoustic features of one's utterances like Voice Onset Time. To figure out the time effects, Queen Elizabeth's Christmas speeches are documented and analyzed in the long-term trend. We build statistical models of time dependence in Voice Onset Time, controlling a wide range of other fixed factors, to present annual variations and the simulated trajectory. It is revealed that the variation range of Voice Onset Time has been narrowing over fifty years with a slight reduction in the mean value, which, possibly, is an effect of diminishing exertion, resulting from subdued muscle contraction, transcending other non-linguistic factors in forming Voice Onset Time patterns over a long time.

description: Cilia are cellular signaling hubs. Given that human kinases are central regulators of signaling, it is not surprising that kinases are key players in cilia biology. In fact, many kinases modulate ciliogenesis, which is the generation of cilia, and distinct ciliary pathways. Several of these kinases are understudied with few publications dedicated to the interrogation of their function. Recent efforts to develop chemical probes for members of the cyclin-dependent kinase like (CDKL), never in mitosis gene A (NIMA) related kinase (NEK), and tau tubulin kinase (TTBK) families either have delivered or are working toward delivery of high-quality chemical tools to characterize the roles that specific kinases play in ciliary processes. A better understanding of ciliary kinases may shed light on whether modulation of these targets will slow or halt disease onset or progression. For example, both understudied human kinases and some that are more well-studied play important ciliary roles in neurons and have been implicated in neurodevelopmental, neurodegenerative, and other neurological diseases. Similarly, subsets of human ciliary kinases are associated with cancer and oncological pathways. Finally, a group of genetic disorders characterized by defects in cilia called ciliopathies have associated gene mutations that impact kinase activity and function. This review highlights both progress related to the understanding of ciliary kinases as well as in chemical inhibitor development for a subset of these kinases. We emphasize known roles of ciliary kinases in diseases of the brain and malignancies and focus on a subset of poorly characterized kinases that regulate ciliary biology.

description: In this paper we investigate the global behavior of proper holomorphic maps f from the unit disc U={|z|<1} to C^2. The fact that U is transcendental imposes certain restrictions on the image f(U). For instance, f(U) cannot be contained in any proper complex cone in C^2 since this would force it to be algebraic. On the other hand, we show that a real cone in C^2 with axis R^2 contains the image of a proper holomorphic map f from U to C^2 if and only if the angle of the cone is larger than pi/2. We also construct maps f as above whose images avoid both coordinate axes in C^2. Equivalently, we construct a pair of positive harmonic functions u, v on U such that max{u(z),v(z)} tends to plus infinity when z tends to the boundary of U. Furthermore we show that the components f_1, f_1 of a proper holomorphic map from U to C^2, as well as polynomial and certain rational functions of f_1 and f_2, have the property that their essential range at any boundary point of U omits at most a polar set in C.

description: Continued emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern that are capable of escaping vaccine-induced immunity highlights the urgency of developing new COVID-19 therapeutics. An essential mechanism for SARS-CoV-2 infection begins with the viral spike protein binding to the human ACE2. Consequently, inhibiting this interaction becomes a highly promising therapeutic strategy against COVID-19. Herein, we demonstrate that ACE2-expressing human lung spheroid cells (LSC)-derived exosomes (LSC-Exo) could function as a prophylactic agent to bind and neutralize SARS-CoV-2, protecting the host against SARS-CoV-2 infection. Inhalation of LSC-Exo facilitates its deposition and biodistribution throughout the whole lung in a female mouse model. We show that LSC-Exo blocks the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 with host cells in vitro and in vivo by neutralizing the virus. LSC-Exo treatment protects hamsters from SARS-CoV-2-induced disease and reduced viral loads. Furthermore, LSC-Exo intercepts the entry of multiple SARS-CoV-2 variant pseudoviruses in female mice and shows comparable or equal potency against the wild-type strain, demonstrating that LSC-Exo may act as a broad-spectrum protectant against existing and emerging virus variants.
