description: Objective: To determine the pattern of antidiabetic drug use, with a particular focus on the metformin dose, among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a Japanese working population. Methods: We used an administrative claims database linked to yearly health check-up data from large corporations. Data were collected for T2DM patients who began using an antidiabetic drug between 2014 and 2017 (n = 20,401). We evaluated the type of antidiabetic drug used and the characteristics of the patients using each type of drug. Among the metformin users, we assessed the titration in its dose or treatment during the 12 month period after initiation at 3 month intervals. Results: Among 20,401 new antidiabetic users, the most frequently used agents during the study period were dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is; 47.4%), followed by biguanides (18.5%) and sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is; 6.7%). Most patients who initiated with metformin were prescribed 500 mg or less daily (72.9%); only 2.0% were prescribed a daily dose of >1000 mg. Moreover, 27% remained on the same daily dose during the 1 year follow-up, whereas another 29.9% discontinued their antidiabetic treatment altogether. Conclusions: A unique pattern of prescription was observed amongst Japanese patients with T2DM, and DPP4is, rather than metformin, were predominantly used as the first-line treatment. SGLT2is were infrequently prescribed. Metformin was prescribed at a daily dose of ≤500 mg in many patients. Greater efforts are needed to assess the comparative effectiveness of these treatment strategies.

description: Until the early 1920s, the classical theory of price included two main models, perfect competition and monopoly. However, E. Chamberlin and J. Robinson introduced a new theory of monopolistic competition in 1933. At the time of global economic crisis, when only the most powerful companies survive, the model of monopolistic competition is hardly sustainable. In fact, the most widespread market model in highly developed world economies has been replaced by monopoly. Supply reduction due to the bankruptcy of many companies, combined with demand decline as a result of the austerity measures, and on the other hand growing need for higher budget inflows, lead to the price hikes in all industries. All mentioned result lead to an extreme market model – the monopoly; even in countries that were known as market economies and by its monopolistic competition. Furthermore, it is well known that employment level is lower in economies that are not competitive. That fact additionally contributes to conclusion that the sustainability of the monopolistic competition is almost impossible during the crisis, considering that we have witnessed high unemployment rates in some EU countries ( e.g. Spain, Greece, Italy, Portugal and Ireland). The subject of this paper is to explore sustainability of the market model of monopolistic competition in conditions of the global economic crisis, transitional economies and the reform, under which is a public sector of the Republic of Serbia. The aim of the paper is to determine are there any opportunities for the survival of the mentioned market model in terms of re-industrialization, which is inevitable companion of globalization.

description: We present the results of spectral analysis of the galactic black-hole binary MAXI J1659--152 in the rising phase of the outburst that lasted for about 65 days starting on 2010 September 25. The presence of a broad Fe line, verified by Monte-Carlo simulations, and coverage of a wide energy band by utilizing the combined spectral capabilities of XMM-Newton/EPIC-pn and RXTE/PCA allowed us to use a combination of reflection spectroscopy and continuum fitting methods to estimate the spin of the black hole. We explored the entire parameter range allowed by the present uncertainties on black-hole mass, inclination, and distance as well as the accretion rate. We show that for about 95 percentage of parameter space and very reasonable upper limits on mass accretion rate, the spin of the black hole has to be negative. This is the first clear detection of negative spin in a galactic black-hole binary.

description: Global companies are strongly pressed by the need to simultaneously and equally efficiently manage globally, since the whole world for them is a single market, and locally, due to the fact that the world market makes a number of different and poorly connected markets. The global market today is extremely open and competitive and applicable to the entire world, in the presence of a large number of market operators. The goals and directions of globalization ( and its “conductors” embodied in the powerful multinationals and high-profit industries, such as military, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, etc. ), are increasingly turning to the demolition of the existing state borders and national, customs and trade barriers. And it is, and being an axiom of modern global business.

description: Given the notably increasing complexity of mathematical models to study realistic systems and their coupling to their environment that constrains their dynamics, both analytical approaches and numerical methods that build on these models, show limitations in scope or applicability. On the other hand, machine learning, i.e. data-driven, methods prove to be increasingly efficient for the study of complex quantum systems. Deep neural networks in particular have been successfully applied to many-body quantum dynamics simulations and to quantum matter phase characterization. In the present work, we show how to use a variational autoencoder (VAE) -- a state-of-the-art tool in the field of deep learning for the simulation of probability distributions of complex systems. More precisely, we transform a quantum mechanical problem of many-body state reconstruction into a statistical problem, suitable for VAE, by using informationally complete positive operator-valued measure. We show with the paradigmatic quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field, that the ground-state physics, such as, e.g., magnetization and other mean values of observables, of a whole class of quantum many-body systems can be reconstructed by using VAE learning of tomographic data, for different parameters of the Hamiltonian, and even if the system undergoes a quantum phase transition. We also discuss challenges related to our approach as entropy calculations pose particular difficulties.

description: The goal of the Financial Independence policy conference held on September 16 and 17, 2024 in Washington, D.C. was to bring together experts from the asset and income fields to share theory, evidence, and best practices. The conference was divided into four sessions. The first two sessions were on Children’s Savings Accounts and Baby Bonds, the asset arm of the conference. The third session focused on the income arm. More specifically, it focused on Unconditional Cash Transfers, the Child Tax Credit, and Child Allowances. The final session focused on why solving poverty requires both asset and income proponents to come together. This policy brief is part of the Baby Bonds’ session.
description: A well-functioning economy should promote human flourishing and self-determination for all. Self-determination demands sufficient resources to fuel real choice and enable our productive capacities. Our current political economy fails to ensure that all of us have what we need to engage meaningfully, instead leaving far too many with far too little. We assert that Baby Bonds—publicly funded trust accounts for young people—and Guaranteed Income, deployed together, can build racially inclusive wealth. Reframing our economic response to need from one that punishes, stigmatizes, and excludes to one that invests, supports, and includes will not only strengthen individuals but will have compounding beneficial effects on our economy as a whole and, we believe, on our democracy.

description: While the gold standard for clinical trials is to blind all parties -- participants, researchers, and evaluators -- to treatment assignment, this is not always a possibility. When some or all of the above individuals know the treatment assignment, this leaves the study open to the introduction of post-randomization biases. In the Strategies to Reduce Injuries and Develop Confidence in Elders (STRIDE) trial, we were presented with the potential for the unblinded clinicians administering the treatment, as well as the individuals enrolled in the study, to introduce ascertainment bias into some but not all events comprising the primary outcome. In this manuscript, we present ways to estimate the ascertainment bias for a time-to-event outcome, and discuss its impact on the overall power of a trial versus changing of the outcome definition to a more stringent unbiased definition that restricts attention to measurements less subject to potentially differential assessment. We found that for the majority of situations, it is better to revise the definition to a more stringent definition, as was done in STRIDE, even though fewer events may be observed.

description: General boundary conditions ("branes") for the Poisson sigma model are studied. They turn out to be labeled by coisotropic submanifolds of the given Poisson manifold. The role played by these boundary conditions both at the classical and at the perturbative quantum level is discussed. It turns out to be related at the classical level to the category of Poisson manifolds with dual pairs as morphisms and at the perturbative quantum level to the category of associative algebras (deforming algebras of functions on Poisson manifolds) with bimodules as morphisms. Possibly singular Poisson manifolds arising from reduction enter naturally into the picture and, in particular, the construction yields (under certain assumptions) their deformation quantization.

These laws are observed in terms of the rules that are currently open. This approach is the study of these laws relies on the fact that these laws are applicable regulations in this area. The legislation in force in Serbia, in our opinion, should be subject to change and adjustment with the current legislation in force in the EU. Or should it be changed and improved.

description: Torus-fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds Z, with base dP_9 and fundamental group pi_1(Z)=Z_2 X Z_2, are reviewed. It is shown that Z=X/(Z_2 X Z_2), where X=B X_{P_1} B' are elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds that admit a freely acting Z_2 X Z_2 automorphism group. B and B' are rational elliptic surfaces, each with a Z_2 X Z_2 group of automorphisms. It is shown that the Z_2 X Z_2 invariant classes of curves of each surface have four generators which produce, via the fiber product, seven Z_2 X Z_2 invariant generators in H_4(X,Z). All invariant homology classes are computed explicitly. These descend to produce a rank seven homology group H_4(Z,Z) on Z. The existence of these homology classes on Z is essential to the construction of anomaly free, three family standard-like models with suppressed nucleon decay in both weakly and strongly coupled heterotic superstring theory.

description: The Federal CSAs landscape has shifted quite a bit since the first federal Children Savings Accounts (CSAs) proposal emerged in the late 1990s: former Senator Bob Kerrey’s bipartisan “KidSave” proposal, which aimed to automatically establish retirement savings accounts for every newborn child. And that landscape is poised to shift again in less than two months with control of the White House, House and Senate up for grabs. The success, scope, and structure of federal CSAs depend entirely on who controls which branches of government, so it’s difficult to speculate on what the federal CSAs landscape might be.

description: Here we present a theoretical analysis of the effect of inelastic electron scattering on spin-dependent transport characteristics (conductance, current-voltage dependence, magnetoresistance, shot noise spectrum, Fano factor) for magnetic nanojunction. Such device is composed of molecular quantum dot (with discrete energy levels)connected to ferromagnetic electrodes (treated within the wide-band approximation), where molecular vibrations are modeled as dispersionless phonons. Non-perturbative computational scheme, used in this work, is based on the Green's function theory within the framework of mapping technique (GFT-MT) which transforms the many-body electron-phonon interaction problem into a single-electron multi-channel scattering problem. The consequence of the localized electron-phonon coupling is polaron formation. It is shown that polaron shift and additional peaks in the transmission function completely change the shape of considered transport characteristics.

description: The research performed in this paper refers to the model that would be used to analyze the effects of the implementation of Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution Process (PPBE) on the budget of the Republic of Serbia defence system. The aim of this model is to overcome certain shortcomings of budgeting of the Ministry of Defence by using multicriteria optimization methods during allocation of financial resourcestoprogrammes, projects and activities. The purpose of the model is to facilitate the decision- making process, solving a certain problem – in this case the problem of optimal allocation of financial resources approved by the budget of the Ministry of Defence, with the best possible effects. It enablesstudy, analysis and evaluation of certain situations which would otherwise be difficult or impossible to investigate. In a specifically defined environment, while recognizing international experiences in implementation of PPBE, the model is actually a methodology for solving the abovementioned problem. It may be defined as a process for creating a model of an actual system and conducting experiments, which enables understanding of the system behavior and/or evaluation of different strategies for system functioning.

description: A key question in understanding the structure of nucleons involves the role of sea quarks in their ground state electromagnetic properties such as charge and magnetism. Parity-violating electron scattering, when combined with determination of nucleon electromagnetic form factors from parity-conserving e-N scattering, provides another degree of freedom to separately determine the up, down and strange quark contributions to nucleon electromagnetic structure. Strange quarks are unique in that they are exclusively in the nucleon's sea. A program of experiments using parity violating electron scattering has been underway for approximately a decade, and results are beginning to emerge. This paper is a brief overview of the various experiments and their results to date along with a short-term outlook of what can be anticipated from experiments in the next few years.

description: Automatic stabilizers as a factor of cyclical fluctuations stabilization attract economists’ attention for several decades. This paper deals with the mechanisms through which automatic stabilizers influence economy and positive and negative effects on aggregate demand they can produce. It is common when discussing automatic stabilizers to put the accent on certain tax categories, such as personal income tax and corporate income tax, оr some public expenditures, such as unemployment benefits and social protection. Given that, here only fiscal stabilizers will be discussed, although some nonfiscal categories also demonstrate stabilizing impact.

Revisioning Fire : A study on cultural burning and fire settlement planning
Creators: name: Van Vugt, Théo
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: In this thesis, I examine the impact fires have had on Canadian communities as a result of climate change and discuss a new form of settlement design that addresses this crisis and offers an efficient solution to community displacement. The history of Canada has marked a departure from and erasure of Indigenous teachings about the regenerative properties of fire and the benefits of working with fire to promote healthier land. Instead, the prevalent mindset extensively deals with fire as something destructive that should be avoided and prevented in all cases. Shifting Canada’s outlook back towards the practice of entertaining fire’s regenerative properties offers a solution to the devastation of wildfires. The proposed new form of settlement design will employ elements of current fire-management design, cultural burning, and a study of local plants’ relationships with fire to help future wildfire prevention and response within the designated community. Taking inspiration from my case studies of the Apete Villages of Brazil, the Camera Botanica of Ian Weir, and the different plants of British Columbia that engage with fire, I developed a six stage process to create a settlement in a fire-prone region of British Columbia. Utilising a combination of quick deployment structures and prefabricated “pods”, a new settlement can take root in wildfire areas as soon as the fires die out. This allows the community to aid in the regrowth of the ecosystem, and provide potentially displaced survivors with new housing quickly. As the community grows, fire management techniques are paired with housing additions to create a community that works together to protect the region, pairing regrowth of community with regrowth of the individual.

description: Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is one of the most troublesome extrapyramidal side effects of neuroleptic medicine. The development of TD on clozapine, a second generation antipsychotics is rare. There are some case reports of TD induced or worsened by clozapine therapy, but clozapine still remains a viable treatment option for patients with antipsychotic induced TD as well as withdrawal dyskinesia. We report a case of 60 year old male patient with the diagnosis of schizophrenia for 25 years who developed TD, around one year after the initiation of clozapine therapy. Clozapine was replaced by amisulpride however it has to be reintroduced as psychotic symptoms continued. It was not clear if clozapine had a direct effect on inducing TD or it was the effect of prolonged exposure to previous antipsychotics. It is probable that clozapine may induce TD in rare cases; however treatment goals need to be balance

description: Identifying the structure of our Galaxy has always been fraught with difficulties, and while modern surveys continue to make progress building a map of the Milky Way, there is still much to understand. The arm and bar features are important drivers in shaping the interstellar medium, but their exact nature and influence still require attention. We present results of smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations of gas in the Milky Way including star formation, stellar feedback, and ISM cooling, when exposed to different arm and bar features, with the aim of better understanding how well newly formed stars trace out the underlying structure of the Galaxy. The bar is given a faster pattern speed than the arms, resulting in a complex, time-dependent morphology and star formation. Inter-arm branches and spurs are easily influenced by the bar, especially in the two-armed spiral models where there is a wide region of resonance overlap in the disc. As the bar over-takes the spiral arms it induces small boosts in star formation and enhances spiral features, which occur at regularly spaced beat-like intervals. The locations of star formation events are similar to those seen in observational data, and do not show a perfect 1:1 correspondence with the underlying spiral potential, though arm tangencies are generally well traced by young stars. Stellar velocity fields from the newly formed stars are compared to data from Gaia DR2, showing that the spiral and bar features can reproduce many of the non-axisymmetric features seen in the data. A simple analytical model is used to show many of these feature are a natural response of gas to rigidly rotating spiral and bar potentials.

description: Gibberellins are an important class of plant hormones. They play an important regulatory role in all stages of growth and development of higher plants. The use of mutants to study gibberellin metabolism and signal transduction pathways is currently a research hotspot. This article takes the data of Affymetrix chips of rice as an example, bioinformatics method was used to study rice SLR1 mutant and mine differentially expressed wild-type genes, thus exploring the expression regulation network of gibberellin signaling pathway-related genes.
On the Origin of the Intensity Deficit in Neutron Compton Scattering

description: Neutron Compton Scattering measurements in a variety of materials have shown a relative deficit in the total signal from hydrogen compared to deuterium and heavier ions. We show here that a breakdown in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation in the final states of the scattering process leads to such a deficit, and may be responsible for the effect.
The Older Population in 21st Century Rural America

Year: 2002
Subjects: Community/Rural/Urban Development

description: Older Americans are increasing steadily in number and proportion of the total population, especially those age 85 and older. Rural areas generally have a higher proportion of older persons in their total population than do urban areas. Although poverty rates of older persons have generally declined, a metro-nonmetro gap persists, with the rural elderly more likely to be poor than the urban elderly. Rural areas differ widely in terms of population trends and the socioeconomic mix of their older population, and policies and programs for the older population that recognize these rural differences will be the most effective.

description: Sleep paralysis (SP) is a benign, transient episode of immobility and it lasts a few seconds to a few minutes. It can occur while falling asleep or on awakening. It is a condition of unknown etiology and all the skeletal muscles are almost ‘paralyzed’. It leads to an inability to speak or move but individual remains conscious. This review summarizes the existential clinical literature on sleep paralysis most relevant to practitioners; also summarizes the many historical and artistic manifestations of SP in diﬀerent cultures. It also throws light on the available Arabic literature and others as per the aim of the review. For this review, literature search using engines was carried out, and review papers and original research articles were analyzed. We start with a review which summarizes the collection of symptoms, prevalence rate, risk factors and etiological theories, characteristics and classification of the SP over the past years up to the present time, also the management in the form of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy as well as the cultural significances in diﬀerent countries. SP plays an important role in the genesis and maintenance of many supernatural belie

description: We present a new Lorentz gauge invariant U(1) topological field theory in Riemann-Cartan spacetime manifold $U_{4}$. By virtue of the decomposition theory of U(1) gauge potential and the $ ϕ$--mapping topological current theory, it is proved that the U(1) complex scalar field $ϕ(x)$ can be looked upon as the order parameter field in our Universe, and the set of zero points of $ϕ(x)$ create the cosmic strings as the spacetime defects in the early Universe. In the standard cosmology this complex scalar order parameter field possesses negative pressure, provides an accelerating expansion of Universe and be able to explain the inflation in the early Universe. Therefore this complex scalar field is not only the order parameter field created the cosmic strings, but also reasonably behaves as the quintessence, the dark energy.

description: Supervised classification of temporal sequences of astronomical images into meaningful transient astrophysical phenomena has been considered a hard problem because it requires the intervention of human experts. The classifier uses the expert's knowledge to find heuristic features to process the images, for instance, by performing image subtraction or by extracting sparse information such as flux time series, also known as light curves. We present a successful deep learning approach that learns directly from imaging data. Our method models explicitly the spatio-temporal patterns with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks and Gated Recurrent Units. We train these deep neural networks using 1.3 million real astronomical images from the Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey to classify the sequences into five different types of astronomical transient classes. The TAO-Net (for Transient Astronomical Objects Network) architecture outperforms the results from random forest classification on light curves by 10 percentage points as measured by the F1 score for each class; the average F1 over classes goes from $45\%$ with random forest classification to $55\%$ with TAO-Net. This achievement with TAO-Net opens the possibility to develop new deep learning architectures for early transient detection. We make available the training dataset and trained models of TAO-Net to allow for future extensions of this work.
