Physical Activity, Structured Sport Participation, and Executive Function in Preschoolers
Creators: name: Bryant, Lindsey M
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2019
Subjects: Early childhood education

description: Two studies explored the connections between physical activity, participation in structured open-skilled sports (e.g., soccer and basketball) and closed-skilled sports (e.g. running and swimming), and executive function (EF) among preschool-aged children. Study 1 included 197 preschool-aged children (mean age = 4.34 years, female = 48%, white = 83.5%). Study 2 included 1012 preschool-aged children (mean age = 51.59 months, white = 60.5%). Results from regression models indicated that parent-reported physical activity was not associated with direct assessments or parent reports of child EF (Studies 1 and 2). General sport participation was associated with one direct assessment (DCCS; Study 1), but was not associated with parent reports of child EF when controlling for physical activity (Studies 1 and 2); however, depending on the conceptualization of sport, some associations were significant. Future research is necessary to determine whether these associations exist when the constructs are conceptualized differently and when using different assessments.

Genetica e costituzione: esercizi di eguaglianza, solidariet� e responsabilit�
Creators: name: Tomasi, Marta
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Trento
Year: 2019

description: Muovendo da una suggestiva consonanza fra genetica e costituzionalismo, l?opera si presenta come una grammatica della articolata e feconda relazione fra queste due discipline, la quale costituisce, per il giurista, una sfida insieme affascinante e complessa. Avvalendosi dei paradigmi del diritto costituzionale e impiegando la genetica medica quale spazio privilegiato di osservazione, si propone una lettura innovativa degli impatti che dinamiche scientifiche e tecnologiche evolutive, in parte consolidate e in parte appena avviate, hanno prodotto e producono sullo statuto costituzionale della persona. La considerazione di tre peculiari dimensioni rilevanti di ?relazione?, ?spazio? e ?tempo? consente di mettere in luce come la promozione della centralit� della persona, negli ambiti indicati, richieda, al contempo, una attenta riconfigurazione di categorie giuridiche e diritti tradizionali e una valorizzazione di forme di responsabilit�, funzionali a un pieno e effettivo affermarsi del principio di autodeterminazione. Attraverso l?analisi, anche in chiave comparata, di testi normativi e decisioni giurisprudenziali, il lavoro restituisce un?immagine rinnovata della persona di fronte ai mutati contesti della ricerca e della medicina e suggerisce in che modo questa possa inquadrarsi in declinazioni originali di principi costituzionali fondativi, come quello personalista, quello di eguaglianza e quello di solidariet�.
Polarization-enabled Multidimensional Optical Microscopy

description: Polarization-dependence provides a unique handle for extending the dimensionality of optical microscopy, with particular benefits in nonlinear optical imaging. Polarization-dependent second order nonlinear optical processes such as second harmonic generation (SHG) provide rich qualitative and quantitative information on local molecular orientation distribution. By bridging Mueller and Jones tensor, a theoretical framework was introduced to experimentally extend the application of polarization-dependent SHG microscopy measurements toward in vivo imaging, in which partial polarization or depolarization of the beam can complicate polarization analysis. In addition, polarization wavefront shaping was demonstrated to enable a new quantitative phase contrast imaging strategy for thin transparent samples. The axially-offset differential interference contrast microscopy (ADIC) was achieved as a combination of classic Zernike phase contrast and Nomarski differential interference contrast (DIC) methods. The fundamentally unique manner of this strategy also inspired rapid volumetric analysis in time dimension that is accessible for most existing microscopy systems. Finally, the dimensionality of high speed twophoton fluorescence imaging was extended to the spectral domain by spatial/spectral multiplexing, enabling beam scanning two photon fluorescence microscopy with 17 frames per second rate and over 2000 effective spectral data points.
Industrial districts in a globalizing world: A model to change or a model of change? - Materiali di discussione del Dipartimento di Economia Politica (Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia), n. 615

description: Industrial districts ? and especially industrial districts in Italy ? have been much studied and debated, and are seen by some as a model of economic development to be emulated, and by others as a model that has already had its day. All agree, however, that those districts today are in transformation, that globalization has put them ?on the move.? This article uses a study of the Modenese mechanical district ? an archetypical industrial district ? to examine this ?movement.? It analyzes changes in the district, including especially the rise to prominence in the district of relatively small multinational firms, and shows that this rise has not severed these firms? ties to the territory but has rather reconfigured relations in ways that have led those firms also to the need for new regional institutions and organizations consistent with a district structure ?on the move?. In particular, the article uses a case study of a private company created to broker collaborative technology transfer among its owner-members as a means to understand what sorts of institutions might be required and, in so doing, draws policy conclusions for regional economic development policy.
Earthquake hazard in Italy Cluster analysis of socio-economic data to inform place-based policy measures

description: The Italian Government launched the Piano Casa Italia immediately after the series of massive earthquakes that struck Central Italy in 2016, following the 2009 earthquake in L'Aquila and the one in 2012 in Emilia-Romagna. The cumulative impact of human losses and economic and social uncertainty produced by the last disaster in 2016 has spurred political decision-makers to advocate an ambitious long-term intervention, aimed at restructuring Italian public buildings and houses over the next decades. Italy has experienced only one other era of similar schemes with the controversial interventions lasting for more than thirty years of the Cassa del Mezzogiorno, which started in the 1950s to cope with the country's dual economic condition. Since then, no other long-term ambitious plan has been attempted in Italy and a similar planning perspective is nowadays far from the experience of most public managers, policy makers and even scholars of economics and development. The ongoing challenges that the Piano Casa Italia has to face are multifaceted: political, economic and social. Challenges pertaining to the agents asked to design the scheme, to implement it and to accept it. The overall perspective of structural change will mark its implementation. This paper is a first contribution within a broader framework to outline the conditions characterizing those challenges and the paths of change that will be initiated by realizing the Plan. The paper suggests taking an analytical perspective to support informed policy measures, in four complementary domains: emergency (National Civil Protection), recovery (Struttura Commissariale), risk reduction (Piano Casa Italia), socio-economic development (National Strategy for Inner Areas). The present contribution starts with a preliminary step, in line with the Sendai Framework for disaster risk reduction (UNISDR 2015): a detailed analysis of the socio-economic, demographic and geographic conditions across Italian territorial areas, at a municipality level. This work explicitly aims to single out these features, by focusing both on seismic zones and on regions. The paper also returns the results of a cluster analysis performed at municipality level across Italy and concludes discussing some implications for place-based policy interventions.
Why choosing dominated personal pension plans: sales force and financial literacy effects
Creators: name: MAROTTA, Giuseppe
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2018

description: We investigate the puzzle of choices of dominated personal pension instruments in Italy, with insurers? products (PIPs) much more subscribed than shares of open pension funds offered by banks (FPAs). We find evidence, using the three waves of Bank of Italy?s Survey of Household Income and Wealth (SHIW) between 2010 and 2014, of a sales force effect deriving from a network of post offices and independent financial advisors associated with insurance companies much more widespread than bank branches. We document that financial literacy has a significant dampening effect on the supply push factor only for PIPs, and especially for the subset with voluntary matching employers? contributions. The effect is detected mostly in the 2014 SHIW wave, the one fully affected by the implementation of the pension system reform legislated in December 2011.
Being Connected: Academic, Social, and Linguistic Integration of International Students

Subjects: English and literacy curriculum and pedagogy (excl. LOTE, ESL and TESOL)

description: In order to comfortably and effectively function in U.S. classrooms, both international students and domestic students benefit from the development of interactive and intercultural communication skills. At Purdue University, a large, public, R1 institution with a substantial international population, the internationalization of the student body is a priority. To examine the relationship between academic and social integration of international and domestic students on campus, international (ESL) undergraduate students (L2 English, n=253) from the Purdue Language and Cultural Exchange Program (PLaCE), and domestic undergraduate students (L1 English n=50) from the first-year composition program (ICaP), participated in a voluntary survey. The framework for investigating students’ interaction with peers and teachers was derived from Severiens and Wolff (2008). Four aspects of new, incoming students’ adaptation (Global Perspective, Intercultural Competence, Acculturation Mode, and Willingness to Communicate) were addressed by the survey. Although there were similarities between international and domestic students, the results revealed international students had more opportunities to interact with peers from diverse language backgrounds in formal academic contexts, including classroom activities, peer-group work in first-year programs and language programs. However, in informal, social contexts, neither international nor domestic students took advantage of opportunities to interact with each other. The tendency to prefer social interactions with co-nationals may contribute to social isolation and limited integration of international and domestic students within broader social contexts outside of classrooms. Yet, rather than resisting this trend, instructors and administrators might enhance opportunities for interaction in academic contexts where both groups are most willing to participate. Findings from this study can contribute to the development of first-year programs that provide realistic solutions for the enhanced internationalization of both domestic and international students on campus.

Reverse Land
Wasted Landscapes as a resource to re-cycle contemporary cities
Creators: name: Amenta, Libera
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2015

description: This research presents REVERSE LAND as a way to add to the definition of 'waste' to include 'Wasted Landscapes' (WL). In contemporary territories, different kinds of WL are in evidence, such as brownfields, derelict lands, drosscapes, polluted industrial landscapes, terrain vague, vacant land, friches, interscapes, underutilised areas, 'in-between' surfaces left over by the dominant economic forces of urbanisation, abandoned and/or contaminated sites, degraded and interstitial entities. WL can be open spaces as well as constructed objects such as, buildings or infrastructures at the end of their life-cycle. WL are considered to be problematic but can also be viewed as a starting point with the potential for future re-cycling of contemporary European territories.

description: The oncogenic Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) infects humans worldwide, but little is known about the occurrence of viruses related to MCPyV in the closest phylogenetic relatives of humans, great apes. We analyzed samples from 30 wild chimpanzees and one captive gorilla and identified two new groups of polyomaviruses (PyVs). These new viruses are by far the closest relatives to MCPyV described to date, providing the first evidence of the natural occurrence of PyVs related to MCPyV in wild great apes. Similar to MCPyV, the prevalence of these viruses is relatively high (>30%). This, together with the fact that humans in West and Central Africa frequently hunt and butcher primates, may point toward further MCPyV-like strains spreading to, or already existing in, our species.

description: Background: To prevent importations of wild polioviruses into a polio free region a high level of population immunity must be kept. Standard methodology for determination of polio antibodies is a feature aimed at obtaining consistent results. An International Standard Serum for polio antibodies exists, but no protective level in International Units is defined. Methods: A representative study was carried out in order to determine the serological status against poliomyelitis in Germany (n = 2564, age 18–79 years). Furthermore, sera from persons aged less than 18 years were included (n = 881). Microneutralization test has been used for determination of antibody levels. Results have been expressed in International Units. Results: The results of this study indicate that the cut-off level for polio antibodies is 0.075 IU/ml for Polio 1, 0.180 IU/ml for Polio 2 and 0.080 IU/ml for Polio 3. Neutralizing antibodies against poliovirus type 1, 2 and 3 were detected in 96.2%, 96.8% and 89.6% of samples, respectively. Conclusions: Overall, this seroprevalence indicates a very high level of immunity of the general population. It must be kept after the switch of immunization strategy from attenuated to inactivated vaccine in Germany.

description: This paper proposes a novel candidate for a Theory of Everything (ToE), based on the foundational theory "Structure as Ontological Principle". The central thesis is that structure is not an emergent property of energy or matter, but the primary ontological foundation of reality itself. The derived formalism describes universal transformation patterns applicable to all types of systems  (physical, biological, cognitive, and social) and offers a unified and adaptable framework for explaining change in the universe. The theory provides an abstract but rigorous candidate for the long-sought ToE.
Exploring the interaction between functional carbohydrate polymers and small-molecule active compounds
Creators: name: Chen, Jingfan
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Food chemistry and food sensory science

description: Naturally occurring carbohydrates polymers and their functional derivatives play important roles in the research and technology development in the food, nutrition, and pharmaceutical areas. A major property of these polymeric materials is to associate, enable, enhance, and/or deliver small-molecule active compound such as phytochemicals, nutraceuticals, and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The goal of this project was to synthesize and characterize phytoglycogen-based materials and study their structure-function relationships in association with selected small-molecule active compounds, including resveratrol, a food-related poorly water-soluble phenolic compound, griseofulvin, an insoluble API, and CCVJ (9-(2-carboxy-2-cyanovinyl) julolidine) a molecular rotor used as a structural probe of polymeric materials. In this study, phytoglycogen (PG) was derivatives to phytoglycogen octenyl succinate (PG-OS), hydroxypropyl phytoglycogen (HPP), and octenylsuccinate hydroxypropyl phytoglycogen (OHPP). PG, HPP, and OHPP were evaluated for their efficacy in improving the solubility and Caco-2 permeation of resveratrol and griseofulvin, and using CCVJ, PG-OS was evaluated on its performance at oil-water interface in comparison with OSA-starch, acacia gum, and sodium caseinate. The results showed that: 1) PG, HPP, and OHPP substantially improved the soluble amount and Caco-2 monolayer permeation of resveratrol and griseofulvin, and anti-fungal efficacy of griseofulvin in the aqueous system were significantly enhanced; suggesting that the active ingredients were effective solubilized and released to become bioavailable, 2) among all PG-based biopolymers, OHPP showed superior performance in solubilizing resveratrol and griseofulvin, and 3) in the oil-water two-layer model system, PG-OS, OSA-starch, acacia gum, and sodium caseinate all affected the transferring of CCVJ from oil to aqueous phase, and the effect was monitored and interpreted by the emission spectra of molecular rotor; in the emulsion system, the emission peak wavelength of CCVJ was correlated with the amount of biopolymer adsorbed at the interface of emulsion droplets, and the molecular rotor-based method can be used to characterize the interfacial adsorption of biopolymer at the interface in oil-in-water emulsion.This study provides information on the interactions between phytoglycogen-based biopolymers and poorly water-soluble active ingredients, and may potentially supports the study of new functional ingredients interaction with phytoglycogen-based biopolymers in aqueous system. Furthermore, this work allowed us to advance the use of molecular rotor as new analytical tool to study the physicochemical properties of biopolymer.
Stability for functional and geometric inequalities and a stochastic representation of fractional integrals and nonlocal operators
Creators: name: Kim, Daesung
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2019
Subjects: Probability theory
Stochastic analysis and modelling
Calculus of variations, mathematical aspects of systems theory and control theory

description: The dissertation consists of two research topics.
The first research direction is to study stability of functional and geometric inequalities. Stability problem is to estimate the deficit of a functional or geometric inequality in terms of the distance from the class of optimizers or a functional that identifies the optimizers. In particular, we investigate the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, the Beckner-Hirschman inequality (the entropic uncertainty principle), and isoperimetric type inequalities for the expected lifetime of Brownian motion.
The second topic of the thesis is a stochastic representation of fractional integrals and nonlocal operators. We extend the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality to symmetric Markov semigroups. To this end, we construct a stochastic representation of the fractional integral using the background radiation process. The inequality follows from a new inequality for the fractional Littlewood-Paley square function. We also prove the Hardy-Stein identity for non-symmetric pure jump Levy processes and the L^p boundedness of a certain class of Fourier multiplier operators arising from non-symmetric pure jump Levy processes. The proof is based on Ito's formula for general jump processes and the symmetrization of Levy processes.

description: Lyric analysis is one of the most commonly used music therapy interventions with the mental health population, yet there is a gap in the research literature regarding song selection. The primary purpose of this study was to determine distinguishing linguistic characteristics of song lyrics most commonly used for lyric analysis with mental health consumers, as measured by LIWC2015 software. A secondary purpose was to provide an updated song list resource for music therapists and music therapy students working with the mental health population. The researcher emailed a survey to 6,757 board-certified music therapists, 316 of whom completed the survey. Respondents contributed 700 different songs that they deemed most effective for lyric analysis with mental health consumers. The researcher used the LIWC2015 software to analyze the 48 songs that were listed by five or more music therapists. Song lyrics contained linguistic indicators of self-focused attention, present-focused attention, poor social relationships, and high cognitive processing. Lyrics were written in an informal, personal, and authentic style. Some lyrics were more emotionally positive, while others were more emotionally negative. While results must be interpreted with caution, it may be helpful to consider linguistic elements when choosing songs for lyric analysis with mental health consumers.

description: To prevent complications that might follow an infection with varicella-zoster virus (VZV), the live attenuated Oka strain (V-Oka) is administered to children in many developed countries. Three vaccine brands (Varivax from Sanofi Pasteur MSD; Varilrix and Priorix-Tetra, both from Glaxo-Smith-Kline) are licensed in Germany and have been associated with both different degrees of vaccine effectiveness and adverse effects. To identify genetic variants in the vaccines that might contribute to rash-associated syndromes, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) profiles of variants from the three vaccines and rash-associated vaccine-type VZV from German vaccinees were quantitatively compared by PCR-based pyrosequencing (PSQ). The Varivax vaccine contained an estimated 3-fold higher diversity of VZV variants, with 20% more wild-type (wt) SNPs than Varilrix and Priorix-Tetra. These minor VZV variants in the vaccines were identified by analyzing cloned full-length open reading frame (ORF) orf62 sequences by chain termination sequencing and PSQ. Some of these sequences amplified from vaccine VZV were very similar or identical to those of the rash-associated vaccine-type VZV from vaccinees and were almost exclusively detected in Varivax. Therefore, minorities of rash-associated VZV variants are present in varicella vaccine formulations, and it can be concluded that the analysis of a core set of four SNPs is required as a minimum for a firm diagnostic differentiation of vaccine-type VZV from wt VZV.

description: The association between pioglitazone (PLZ) and bladder cancer (BC) remains controversial in several randomized control trials, meta-analyses of multiple prospective studies, and large-scale observational studies. Adverse event (AE) data from 1 January 2004 to 31 March 2024 were extracted from the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Disproportionality analysis were applied to quantify the signals of PLZ related BC. In total, 17,627,524 AE reports were recorded in the FAERS database, of which 1366 were PLZ-related BCs. More male than female patients were reported. The median age of patients was 70 years old. The peak in the annual report occurred in 2011. A total of 602 AEs reported time to onset (TTO) and the median TTO was 1023 days. In this study, BC and BC recurrence were strong signal, whereas BC stage 0 (with cancer in situ), stage ii and iii were weak signals. This study comprehensively demostrated the PLZ-induced risk of BC in patients with diabetes mellitus using the FAERS database. The results demonstrated that the patients treated with PLZ were more likely to develop BC. The male and aging attributed more cases to BC-related reports of PLZ treated patients.

description: Scholars who have studied the contested meaning of “creole” in Louisiana have typically maintained that the “Creole myth,” that is the strategic redefinition of the term “creole” to refer to the white descendants of Louisiana’s original French and Spanish settlers, emerged during or shortly after the Civil War. Drawing on a newspaper article and two case studies related to the New Orleans theatre, this essay proposes a new periodization for the emergence of the “Creole myth” and a re-evaluation of the cultural and political work it was doing. I want to suggest that conceiving of the Creole myth as an antebellum phenomenon (rather than examining it in the context of the postbellum era) allows us to see that its creation was not just motivated by French Louisianian concerns about cultural integrity and ethnic survival but also by this population’s anxiety about race and the status and mobility of free people of color. As a rhetorical tool that gained traction in the 1830s, the strategic redefinition of “creole” to exclude all people of African descent operated in tandem with other attempts to curtail the rights of free people of color, preventing their social, economic, and political ascent during the antebellum period.

description: In autonomous driving, medical diagnosis, unmanned vehicles and many other new technologies, the neural network and computer vision has become extremely popular and influential. In particular, for classifying objects, convolutional neural networks (CNN) is very efficient and accurate. One version is the Region-based CNN (RCNN). This is our selected network design for a new implementation in an FPGA.
This network identi es stop signs in an image. We successfully designed and trained an RCNN network in MATLAB and implemented it in the hardware to use in an embedded real-world application. The hardware implementation has been achieved with maximum FPGA utilization of 220 18k_BRAMS, 92 DSP48Es, 8156 FFS, 11010 LUTs with an on-chip power consumption of 2.235 Watts. The execution speed in FPGA is 0.31 ms vs. the MATLAB execution of 153 ms (on computer) and 46 ms (on GPU).
Optical Sensor Tasking Optimization for Space Situational Awareness

Subjects: Aerospace engineering not elsewhere classified

description: In this work, sensor tasking refers to assigning the times and pointing directions for a sensor to collect observations of cataloged objects, in order to maintain the accuracy of the orbit estimates. Sensor tasking must consider the dynamics of the objects and uncertainty in their positions, the coordinate frame in which the sensor tasking is defined, the timing requirements for observations, the sensor capabilities, the local visibility, and constraints on the information processing and communication. This research focuses on finding efficient ways to solve the sensor tasking optimization problem. First, different coordinate frames are investigated, and it is shown that the observer fixed Local Meridian Equatorial (ground-based) and Satellite Meridian Equatorial (space-based) coordinate frames provide consistent sets of pointing directions and accurate representations of orbit uncertainty for use by the optimizers in solving the sensor tasking problem. Next, two classical optimizers (greedy and Weapon-Target Assignment) which rely on convexity are compared with two Machine Learning optimizers (Ant Colony Optimization and Distributed Q-learning) which attempt to learn about the solution space in order to approximate a global optimal solution. It is shown that the learning optimizers are able to generate better solutions, while the classical optimizers are more efficient to run and require less tuning to implement. Finally, the realistic scenario where the optimization algorithm receives no feedback before it must make the next decision is introduced. The Predicted Measurement Probability (PMP) is developed, and employed in a two sensor optimization framework. The PMP is shown to provide effective feedback to the optimization algorithm regarding the observations of each sensor.

description: Amiodarone is used to treat cardiac arrhythmias but carries a risk of pulmonary toxicity. Despite this well-known side effect, there is currently no large descriptive case series studying amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was utilized to quantify signals of amiodarone-related pulmonary adverse events (AEs) from 2004 to 2023. Severity comparisons between serious and non-serious cases were conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test or chi-square (χ2) test, and signal prioritization was achieved through rating scales. A total of 4896 cases of amiodarone-related pulmonary AEs were found, and 56 signals were detected. 27 AEs were classified as serious adverse reactions, and 21 AEs were identified as new and unexpected signals. Even when stratified by age, weight, sex, and reporter type, the association between amiodarone and pulmonary diseases persisted. Seven strong clinical priority signals were defined. The median time to onset (TTO) for strong, moderate, and weak clinical priority signals was 221, 126, and 227 days, respectively. All disproportional signals exhibited an early failure-type pattern. Our study offers a deeper and broader understanding of the pulmonary safety profile of amiodarone, which will aid healthcare professionals in mitigating the risk of pulmonary adverse events in clinical practice.

description: The objective of this study was to describe transmission chains of measles observed in Poland during 2008-2009. A decade ago, the incidence of measles in Poland declined and approached one case per million inhabitants one of the World Health Organization's criteria for measles elimination. Following a period of very few reported measles cases (2003 to 2005), an increase in incidence was observed in 2006. Since then, the incidence has constantly exceeded one case per million inhabitants. Of 214 measles cases reported in 2008 and 2009 in Poland, 164 (77%) were linked to 19 distinct outbreaks, with 79% of cases belonging to the Roma ethnic group. Outbreaks in the non-Roma Polish population had different dynamics compared to those in the Roma population. On average, measles outbreaks in Roma communities involved 10 individuals, seven of whom were unvaccinated, while outbreaks in the non-Roma Polish population involved five individuals, half of whom were incompletely vaccinated. The majority of outbreaks in Roma communities were related to importation of virus from the United Kingdom. In six outbreaks, the epidemiologic investigation was confirmed by identification of genotype D4 closely related to measles viruses detected in the United Kingdom and Germany. Our data indicate that Poland is approaching measles elimination, but measles virus circulation is still sustained in a vulnerable population. More efforts are needed to integrate the Roma ethnic group into the Polish healthcare system and innovative measures to reach vulnerable groups should be explored.
