description: Evidence-based guidelines on the management of pain associated with first-trimester medical abortion are lacking. Most published clinical trials have failed to report on this important aspect of the procedure. The aim of this comprehensive work was to provide clinical advice based on a comprehensive literature review, supplemented by the clinical experience of a group of European experts in case no evidence is available. Pain level ranged from 5 to 8 in 80% of studies where pain was measured on a 0–10 visual analogue scale; severe pain was reported by 20–80% of women. Pain assessment was rarely reported in studies. Pain treatment should be preventive and avoidance of unnecessary uterine contractions should be considered. Analgesic treatment should follow the WHO three-step ladder, starting with the use of NSAIDs and allowing for easily available back-up treatment with weak opioids.

description: Ultra-fast dynamics, insensitivity to external magnetic fields, or absence of magnetic stray fields are examples of properties that make antiferromagnets of potential use in the development of spintronic devices. Similar to their ferromagnetic counterparts, antiferromagnets can store information in the orientations of the collective magnetic order vector. However, also in analogy to ferromagnets, the readout magnetoresistivity signals in simple antiferromagnetic films have been weak and the extension of the electrical reorientation mechanism to optics has not been achieved. Here we report reversible and reproducible quenching of an antiferromagnetic CuMnAs film by either electrical or ultrashort optical pulses into nano-fragmented domain states. The resulting resistivity changes approach 20\% at room temperature, which is comparable to the giant magnetoresistance ratios in ferromagnetic multilayers. We also obtain a signal readout by optical reflectivity. The analog time-dependent switching and relaxation characteristics of our devices can mimic functionality of spiking neural network components.

description: Biofuels for transport belong to a sector, which functions in a volatile global environment (macro). Until the end of 2010, European Union had promoted the production and development of vegetable based biofuels for transport as a way to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases (nonobligatory Directive 2003/30/EC, with indicator of replacing 5.75% of all transport fossil fuels with biofuels in 2010, reached in about 80%). Currently, bio-components with high CO2 emission reduction and biofuels produced from inedible plants and raw material waste are being promoted. The Directive 2009/28/EC, which has been in force since 2011, has imposed mandatory obligation on all subjects, who participate in the cycle of biofuels and bioliquid production, to fulfill criteria of sustainable production, including CO2 emission reduction to at least the threshold level (e.g. at least 50% reduction by 2017). In the article, rating method for CO2 reduction in the international law setting have been presented – BIOGRACE 4 calculator and value of CO2 emission reduction in five plants, where biofuels are produced with use of three methods.

description: We present observations of the v2=0 and vibrationally excited v2=1 J=9-8 rotational lines of HCN at 797 GHz toward the deeply embedded massive young stellar object GL 2591, which provide the missing link between the extended envelope traced by lower-J line emission and the small region of hot (T_ex >= 300 K), abundant HCN seen in 14 micron absorption with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The line ratio yields T_ex=720^+135_-100 K and the line profiles reveal that the hot gas seen with ISO is at the velocity of the protostar, arguing against a location in the outflow or in shocks. Radiative transfer calculations using a depth-dependent density and temperature structure show that the data rule out a constant abundance throughout the envelope, but that a model with a jump of the abundance in the inner part by two orders of magnitude matches the observations. Such a jump is consistent with the sharp increase in HCN abundance at temperatures >~230 K predicted by recent chemical models in which atomic oxygen is driven into water at these temperatures. Together with the evidence for ice evaporation in this source, this result suggests that we may be witnessing the birth of a hot core. Thus, GL 2591 may represent a rare class of objects at an evolutionary stage just preceding the `hot core' stage of massive star formation.

description: The problem of making sequential decisions in unknown probabilistic environments is studied. In cycle $t$ action $y_t$ results in perception $x_t$ and reward $r_t$, where all quantities in general may depend on the complete history. The perception $x_t$ and reward $r_t$ are sampled from the (reactive) environmental probability distribution $μ$. This very general setting includes, but is not limited to, (partial observable, k-th order) Markov decision processes. Sequential decision theory tells us how to act in order to maximize the total expected reward, called value, if $μ$ is known. Reinforcement learning is usually used if $μ$ is unknown. In the Bayesian approach one defines a mixture distribution $ξ$ as a weighted sum of distributions $ν\in\M$, where $\M$ is any class of distributions including the true environment $μ$. We show that the Bayes-optimal policy $p^ξ$ based on the mixture $ξ$ is self-optimizing in the sense that the average value converges asymptotically for all $μ\in\M$ to the optimal value achieved by the (infeasible) Bayes-optimal policy $p^μ$ which knows $μ$ in advance. We show that the necessary condition that $\M$ admits self-optimizing policies at all, is also sufficient. No other structural assumptions are made on $\M$. As an example application, we discuss ergodic Markov decision processes, which allow for self-optimizing policies. Furthermore, we show that $p^ξ$ is Pareto-optimal in the sense that there is no other policy yielding higher or equal value in {\em all} environments $ν\in\M$ and a strictly higher value in at least one.

description: We demonstrate the production of large $^7$Li Bose-Einstein condensates in an optical dipole trap using $D_1$ gray molasses. The sub-Doppler cooling technique reduces the temperature of $4\times10^9$ atoms to $25~μ$K in 3~ms. After microwave evaporation cooling in a magnetic quadrupole trap, we transfer the atoms to a crossed optical dipole trap, where we employ a magnetic Feshbach resonance on the $|F=1,m_F=1\rangle$ state. Fast evaporation cooling is achieved by tilting the optical potential using a magnetic field gradient on the top of the Feshbach field. Our setup produces pure condensates with $2.7\times10^6$ atoms in the optical potential for every 11~s. The trap tilt evaporation allows rapid thermal quench, and spontaneous vortices are observed in the condensates as a result of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism.

description: quasi-one-dimensional (1D) titania nanostructures - single-walled nanotubes formed by rolling [101] planes of TiO$_2$ (anatase phase) are modeled and their electronic properties and bond orders indices are studied using the tight-binding band theory. We show that all zigzag (n,0)- and armchair (n,n)-like nanotubes are uniformly semiconducting, and the band gap trends to vanish as the tube diameters decrease. It was established that the zigzag (n,0) nanotubes configurations are more likely to form when the diameters are larger 1 nm. The Ti-O covalent bonds were found to be the strongest interactions in TiO$_2$ tubes, whereas Ti-Ti bonds proved to be much weaker.

description: Controversies surrounding the effect of ES on pregnancy outcome in women with RIF are mostly due to the poorly defined target population. We evaluated the effect of ES on clinical outcomes in women with strict criteria of RIF before IVF/ICSI. We also examined the effect of ES on the expression of markers of endometrial receptivity. Women with failed implantation after transfer of seven or more top quality day 3 embryos or three blastocysts underwent the scratch procedure on exact days of the cycle prior to IVF/ICSI. Results were compared to no scratch control group. Using histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and scanning electron microscopy, we also examined the effect of injury on the endometrial receptivity in a separate series of observations with double ES. Cumulative pregnancy rate was significantly higher in the study group as compared to control (54.8% vs. 29.0%; p

description: We review the properties of Galactic binaries containing two compact objects, as derived by means of population synthesis. Using this information we calculate the gravitational wave signal of these binaries. At frequencies below f ~< 2 mHz the double white dwarf population forms an unresolved background for the low-frequency gravitational wave detector LISA. Above this limit some few thousand double white dwarfs and few tens of binaries containing neutron stars will be resolved. Of the resolved double white dwarfs ~500 have a total mass above the Chandrasekhar limit. About ~95 of these have a measurable frequency change allowing a determination of their chirp mass. We discuss the properties of the resolved systems.

description: By comparing the observed orbital decay of the binary pulsars PSRB1913+16 and PSRB1534+12 to that predicted by general relativity due to gravitational-wave emission, we are able to bound the mass of the graviton to be less than $7.6\times10^{-20} \text{eV}/c^2$ at 90% confidence. This is the first such bound to be derived from dynamic gravitational fields. It is approximately two orders of magnitude weaker than the static-field bound from solar system observations, and will improve with further observations.

description: Observatories and satellites around the globe produce tremendous amounts of imaging data to study many different astrophysical phenomena. The serendipitous observations of Solar System objects are a fortunate by-product which have often been neglected due to the lack of a simple yet efficient identification algorithm. Meanwhile, the determination of the orbit, chemical composition, and physical properties such as rotation period and 3D-shape of Solar System objects requires a large number of astrometry and multi-band photometry observations. Such observations are hidden in current and future astrophysical archives, and a method to harvest these goldmines is needed. This article presents an easy-to-implement, light-weight software package which detects bodies of the Solar System in astronomical images and measures their astrometry and photometry. The ssos pipeline is versatile, allowing for application to all kinds of observatory imaging products. The sole principle requirement is that the images observe overlapping areas of the sky within a reasonable time range. Both known and unknown Solar System objects are recovered, from fast-moving near-Earth asteroids to slow objects in the Kuiper belt. The high-level pipeline design and two test applications are described here, highlighting the versatility of the algorithm with both narrow-field pointed and wide-field survey observations. In the first study, 2,828 detections of 204 SSOs are recovered from publicly available images of the GTC OSIRIS Broad Band DR1. The false-positive ratio of SSO detections ranges from 0%-23% depending on the pipeline setup. The second test study utilizes the images of the first data release of J-PLUS, a 12-band optical survey. 4,606 SSO candidates are recovered, with a false-positive ratio of (2.0 +- 0.2)%.

The problem of the Pleiades distance. Constraints from Stromgren photometry of nearby field stars

description: The discrepancy between the Pleiades cluster distance based on Hipparcos parallaxes and main sequence fitting is investigated on the basis of Stromgren photometry of F-type stars. Field stars with the same metallicity as the Pleiades have been selected from the m1 index and a technique has been developed to locate the ZAMS of these field stars in color-magnitude diagrams based on the color/temperature indices b-y, v-y, and beta. Fitting the Pleiades to these ZAMS relations results in a distance modulus of 5.61+/-0.03 mag in contrast to the Hipparcos modulus of 5.36+/-0.06 mag. Hence, we cannot confirm the recent claim by Grenon (1999) that the distance problem is solved by adopting a low metallicity of the Pleiades ([Fe/H]=-0.11) as determined from Geneva photometry. The metallicity sensitivity of the ZAMS determined by the field stars is investigated, and by combining this sensitivity in all three color/temperature indices b-y, v-y, and beta we get a independent test of the Pleiades distance modulus which support our value of 5.61 mag. Furthermore, the field star sample used for the comparison is tested against theoretical isochrones of different ages to show that evolutionary effects in the field star sample are not biasing our distance modulus estimate significantly. Possible explanations of the Pleiades distance problem are discussed and it is suggested that the discrepancy in the derived moduli may be linked to a non-spherical shape of the cluster.

description: We derive approximate expressions for the static local field factors of a spin polarized two-dimensional electron gas which smoothly interpolate between their small- and large-wavevector asymptotic limits. For the unpolarized electron gas, the proposed analytical expressions reproduce recent diffusion Monte Carlo data. We find that the degree of spin polarization produces important modifications to the local factors of the minority spins, while the local field functions of the majority spins are less affected.

description: Thyroid hormone (TH) signalling, an evolutionary conserved pathway, is crucial for brain function and cognition throughout life, from early development to ageing. In humans, TH deficiency during pregnancy alters offspring brain development, increasing the risk of cognitive disorders. How TH regulates neurogenesis and subsequent behaviour and cognitive functions remains a major research challenge. Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying TH signalling on proliferation, survival, determination, migration, differentiation and maturation have been studied in mammalian animal models for over a century. However, recent data show that THs also influence embryonic and adult neurogenesis throughout vertebrates (from mammals to teleosts). These latest observations raise the question of how TH availability is controlled during neurogenesis and particularly in specific neural stem cell populations. This review deals with the role of TH in regulating neurogenesis in the developing and the adult brain across different vertebrate species. Such evo-devo approaches can shed new light on (i) the evolution of the nervous system and (ii) the evolutionary control of neurogenesis by TH across animal phyla. We also discuss the role of thyroid disruptors on brain development in an evolutionary context.

description: Um den Zustand des subjektiv geprägten Konstrukts «Klassenklima» auf der Sekundarstufe I zu erfassen, besteht die Möglichkeit, Schülerinnen und Schüler anhand schriftlicher Fragebögen darüber zu befragen. Diesbezüglich existieren einerseits in der Fachliteratur bereitgestellte Fragebögen, andererseits werden solche in verschiedenen Sekundarschulen selbst erstellt und eingesetzt. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, diese Fragebögen zu vergleichen und Unterschiede auszumachen, um im Anschluss daran Konsequenzen für den schulischen Alltag zu formulieren. Die theoretische Auseinandersetzung mit den Begriffen «Klassenklima» sowie «Fragebogen» zeigt auf, dass diese in ihrer Komplexität oftmals verschieden ausgelegt und interpretiert werden. Infolgedessen sind sowohl formative als auch inhaltliche Kriterien identifizierbar, anhand welcher sich Fragebögen zum Klassenklima unterscheiden. Zusammengefasst zeigen die Forschungsresultate, dass sich die in der Literatur verfügbaren als auch die durch die Schulen erstellten Fragebögen im Aufbau, der Formulierung sowie dem Umfang der Items und Antwortformate unterscheiden und auch inhaltliche Differenzen auszumachen sind. So fokussieren sich die meisten der untersuchten Fragebögen auf die Beziehungen zwischen den Schülerinnen und Schülern, auch wenn einzelne Fragebögen der Fachliteratur das Klassenklima ganzheitlicher erfassen. Grund dafür dürfte unter anderem die Vielschichtigkeit des Klassenklimas sein. Soll dieses möglichst umfassend erhoben werden, so nimmt die Fragebogenlänge zu, was sich schliesslich negativ auf die Motivation und Zumutbarkeit auswirkt.

description: Efficient chemoselective oxidation of primary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes is described. The transformation is promoted by a catalytic morpholinone nitroxide radical catalyst which can be easily synthesized. A broad range of substrates including aromatic and aliphatic primary alcohols are converted with excellent yields under mild conditions. The control experiments reveal that the morpholinone nitroxide can be used as a selective oxidant for primary alcohols in the presence of secondary alcohols.
Rivalry and Enmity in Q
Creators: name: Parks, Sara
Publisher: name: Peeters

description: Q is a site of tension, some of which is preserved from the time of Q's composition and redaction, and some of which goes back to the historical Jesus. "This generation," which mistreats prophets, is one of the most interesting points of tension in Q. Q's Jesus draws on martyr discourse to situate John the Baptist's apocalyptic message within the noble lineage of past ill-treated prophets vindicated only in hindsight. Q repurposes this discourse to lend gravitas to Jesus' own death, as well as to actively construct what makes "a good Jew."

Anisotropic matter distributions that can be used with the one parameter Ehlers-Geroch transform are discussed. Example spacetimes that support the appropriate anisotropic stress-energy are found and the transformation applied. The 3+1 black string solution is one of the spacetimes with the appropriate matter distribution. Use of the transform with a black string seed is discussed.

description: A long (155 hours) ASCA observation was performed of two ultra luminous compact X-ray sources, Source 1 and Source 2, in the spiral galaxy IC 342. While Source 1 that was in a hard spectral state varied little, Source 2 that was in its soft spectral state varied significantly on a time scale of about one day. The rms variation amplitude amounts to 5% in the 2-10 keV band, but is less than 4% in 0.7-2 keV. The variation involves statistically significant changes in the parameters describing multi-color disk blackbody emission from this source. The variation is possibly periodic, with a period of either 31 $\pm$ 2, hours or 41 $\pm$ 3 hours. Both are consistent with the orbital period of a semi-detached binary formed by a black hole and a main-sequence star of several tens solar masses. These results reinforce the interpretation of these X-ray objects in terms of accreting massive stellar black holes.

description: PURPOSE: Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) with spiral readout enables rapid quantification of tissue relaxation times. However, it is prone to blurring due to off-resonance effects. Hence, fat blurring into adjacent regions might prevent identification of small tumors by their quantitative T1 and T2 values. This study aims to correct for the blurring artifacts, thereby enabling fast quantitative mapping in the female breast. METHODS: The impact of fat blurring on spiral MRF results was first assessed by simulations. Then, MRF was combined with 3-point Dixon water-fat separation and spiral blurring correction based on conjugate phase reconstruction. The approach was assessed in phantom experiments and compared to Cartesian reference measurements, namely inversion recovery (IR), multi-echo spin echo (MESE) and Cartesian MRF, by normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) and standard deviation (STD) calculations. Feasibility is further demonstrated in-vivo for quantitative breast measurements of 6 healthy female volunteers, age range 24-31 years. RESULTS: In the phantom experiment, the blurring correction reduced the NRMSE per phantom vial on average from 16% to 8% for T1 and from 18% to 11% for T2 when comparing spiral MRF to IR/MESE sequences. When comparing to Cartesian MRF, the NRMSE reduced from 15% to 8% for T1 and from 12% to 7% for T2. Furthermore, STDs decreased. In-vivo, the blurring correction removed fat bias on T1/T2 from a rim of about 7-8 mm width adjacent to fatty structures. CONCLUSION: The blurring correction for spiral MRF yields improved quantitative maps in the presence of water and fat.
