description: Environmental enrichment (EE) has been associated with many effects on the behavior of laboratory animals. The term EE is rather vague, often referring to a variety of item combinations as if what is added to the cage has no significance. EE is indeed housing refinement, and therefore more exact terms should be used to clarify the situation. This study was designed to assess whether access to a nest box (NB) could modify behavior of BALB/c mice in the plus-maze test. Two series of experiments were done with an aspen NB (11 x 11 x 7 cm, wall thickness 1.5 cm, two round holes (d = 3 cm) at opposite sides. Control mice had no added item in the cage. The plus-maze consisted of two open (8 x 17 cm) and two closed arms (8 x 17 x 30 cm) connected by a central platform (8 x 8 cm). Mice were placed on the central platform facing an open arm. During five minutes, the numbers of entries made onto the open and into the closed arms were recorded. From this data, the percentages of entries made onto the open arms, and the percentage of time spent on the open arms, were calculated. Furthermore, the number of fecal boli left by the mice in the plusmaze, as a stress indicator, were counted. In the first series of experiments NB was present for one, two and three weeks but no drugs were administered. NB provided for one or two weeks had no effect on the behavior of mice. However, exposure to NB for three weeks did decrease the locomotor activity of mice in the plus-maze test, as reflected in the decline in the total number of entries made in the test. The presence of NB for one or two weeks resulted in more (p = 0.001) fecal boli voided when compared to the no NB or NB for three weeks groups. In the second series of experiments we used NB for 10 days and the selective neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) inhibitor 1-(2-trifluoromethylphenyl)-imidazole (TRIM) as a pharmacological tool (at doses of 25.0, 50.0 and 100.0 mg/kg, i.p.). Depending on the dose, the administration of TRIM induced an anxiolytic (50 mg/kg) or sedative effect (100 mg/kg) as seen in the increase in the percentage of entries made onto the open arms or a decrease in the total number of entries, respectively. NB for 10 days had no effect on the behavior of mice or on the effect of TRIM. In conclusion, NB does not appear to interfere with the anxiolytic effect of TRIM in the plus-maze test but prolonged exposure to NB does reduce the locomotor activity of mice.

description: The clinical observations and pathological manifestations of lymphosarcoma in two African green monkeys are described. Monkeys had been caught from the wild. Prior to the development of neoplasms one monkey had been experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense as a model of human trypanosomiasis and subsequently treated with a proprietary trypanocidal drug and observed for any aftereffects. Th e other monkey was used to test for the safety of another trypanocidal drug.During the monitoring period, terminated by euthanasia, monkey became dull, unable to perch, and hunched. In the same animal the facial skin became hypersensitive and nodular skin lesions developed. In the other animal used in safety study, skin lesions, weight loss, and swollen eyelids were observed prior to euthanasia. During the terminal stages of the experimental protocol, the superficial lymph nodes of both animals became swollen, and the white blood cell count increased. Lesions disclosed during necropsy and subsequent histopathology revealed classical signs of nodular multicentric lymphosarcoma. In both animals the neoplastic infiltrates were dominated by large lymphocytes with anisokaryosis and megakaryosis. In several organs (lungs, liver and kidneys) of one of the animals, the neoplastic infiltrates were accompanied by compression and degeneration of bordering tissues. The cause of the neoplasms remains unknown, but stress-induced immunosuppression associated with captivity, to a lesser extent and, more importantly, the induction and treatment of experimental trypanosomiasis may, have triggered the onset of neoplastic proliferation, which is frequently associated with simian T-cell leukemia virus 1 (STLV-1).

description: The prevalence of null results in searches for new physics at the LHC motivates the effort to make these searches as model-independent as possible. We describe procedures for adapting the Matrix Element Method for situations where the signal hypothesis is not known a priori. We also present general and intuitive approaches for performing analyses and presenting results, which involve the flattening of background distributions using likelihood information. The first flattening method involves ranking events by background matrix element, the second involves quantile binning with respect to likelihood (and other) variables, and the third method involves reweighting histograms by the inverse of the background distribution.

description: TheâIVS-2-654 C→T mutation accounts for approximately 20% of â thalassemia mutation in southern China; it causes aberrant RNA splicing and leads to â thalassemia. To provide an animal model for testing therapies for correcting splicing defects, we have produced two lines of transgenic mice with the human â thalassemia mutant gene. The transgenic mice carrying this mutant gene show the same aberrant splicing as their human counterparts and provide an animal model for testing therapies to correct splicing defects at either the RNA or DNA level.

description: Antibody harvested from eggs of immunised chickens, IgY, has proven to be a non-invasive alternative to antibodies purified from serum of mammals. Taking the non-invasive concept further, the development of oral immunization techniques combined with IgY harvest from chicken eggs may subsequently eliminate all regulated procedures from polyclonal antibody production. In the present study, we report the effects of varying the temporal administration mode of the antigen (immunogen) comparing dosing on three consecutive days with dosing on five consecutive days, and of incorporating a mucosal adjuvant. Two antigen doses were compared: 30 mg bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 300 mg BSA, with and without the mucosal adjuvant, RhinoVax®, administered to laying chickens. The egg yolk of chickens dosed with BSA in combination with 20% RhinoVax®, contained significantly higher concentrations of immunospecific IgY than did egg yolks of chickens fed with BSA without adjuvant. The most efficient dose in the RhinoVax®-treated groups was 300 mg BSA regardless of whether the chickens were initially immunised daily for three or five days. A 3-day dosing regime with BSA alone also induced immunospecific IgY production. This study confirms that RhinoVax® is an efficient oral adjuvant. It also demonstrates the efficacy of daily immunizations on three or five consecutive days on immunospecific IgY production. The chickens received oral booster immunizations one and two months after the initial immunization. No real effect could be recorded after the second and third immunization, although the study did provide some evidence of memory based on an optimum IgY concentration recorded after the 2nd immunization.

The coupled channels equations are divided into two sets. The first set, described by the CDCC, and the other set treated with RMT. The resulting theory is a Statistical CDCC (CDCC$_S$), able in principle to take into account many pseudo channels.

description: The current study evaluated the influence of restricted feeding at low and medium levels versus near ad libitum food intake, on the growth and bone development in male and female Göttingen minipigs aged 8 to 43 weeks fed two different types of diets. Diet 1 was a low fat, high fibre diet, whereas diet 2 was a high fat, low fibre diet. A higher level of feed intake led to a significant increase in the following parameters: body weight development, bone size (length and width of rib and femur), bone volume (rib), bone (rib) dry matter and ash content (mg), as well as bone density (femur) as measured by X-ray absorption. Diet 2 gave a significantly higher body weight, bone volume and bone density of the femur shaft (cortical bone density) as compared to diet 1, whereas feed conversion was significantly lower on diet 2. On either diet, female minipigs had a significantly higher body weight development, bone volume, and dry matter and ash content of the rib (mg) as compared to males. Also bone mineral concentrations in the femur, expressed as calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in mg/cm3, were significantly higher in females as compared to males, as was the Ca:Pi ratio. Bone density measurements of the femur’s proximal and distal segment, and total femur bone density (g/cm2) were significantly higher in females as compared to males. Feed conversion in females was significantly lower than in males. This study illustrates that female and male minipigs show distinct differences in body and bone metabolism. Bone densities, in contrast to bone mineral concentrations, were related to the level of feed restriction and may therefore be useful biomarkers to study the influence of nutrient intake on bone metabolism in Göttingen minipigs.

Joint Structure Learning of Multiple Non-Exchangeable Networks

description: Several methods have recently been developed for joint structure learning of multiple (related) graphical models or networks. These methods treat individual networks as exchangeable, such that each pair of networks are equally encouraged to have similar structures. However, in many practical applications, exchangeability in this sense may not hold, as some pairs of networks may be more closely related than others, for example due to group and sub-group structure in the data. Here we present a novel Bayesian formulation that generalises joint structure learning beyond the exchangeable case. In addition to a general framework for joint learning, we (i) provide a novel default prior over the joint structure space that requires no user input; (ii) allow for latent networks; (iii) give an efficient, exact algorithm for the case of time series data and dynamic Bayesian networks. We present empirical results on non-exchangeable populations, including a real data example from biology, where cell-line-specific networks are related according to genomic features.

description: The existence of the cosmic ray Halo in our Galaxy has been discussed for more than half a century. If it is real it could help to explain some puzzling features of the cosmic ray flux: its small radial gradient, nearly perfect isotropy and the low level of the fine structure in the energy spectra of the various particles. All these features could be understood if: (a) the Halo has a big size (b) cosmic rays in the Halo have a unform spatial distribution and (c) the cosmic ray density in the Halo is comparable or even higher than that in the Galactic Disk. The main topic of the paper concerns the present status of the anisotropy and a model for its formation. In our model the extremely small amplitude of the dipole anisotropy is due to the dilution of the anisotropy in the Disk by the dominating isotropic cosmic rays from the Halo. Some minor deviations from complete isotropy in the sub-PeV and PeV energy regions point out to the possible contribution of the Single Source with the phase of its first harmonic opposite to the phase produced by the Disk.

description: This document contains the conclusions of the analysis done on the validity of IVOA’s Provenance Data Model ([RD.1]) with regards to the Square Kilometre Array’ Science Data Processor. A brief description of what the Provenance information entails will be given, together with important aspects that should be taken into account for the later stages of the project, what information is available via the Critical Design Review documents (and what is missing as of this date), and the differences between the different Reference Data Models. Over the course of this task, the data models available in the documents [RD.4] and [RD.5] from the Critical Design Review (CDR) have been used to find the Provenance relevant information. In those documents, the information relating to low-level workflow is not contemplated, thus the analysis will be centred on high-level information and provenance. One of the main objectives of this activity consists on implementing the reference data model defined during the previous activity (see document [RD.3]), and studying whether said data model is effective in defining the Provenance information. Additionally, one of the tasks consisted in comparing the use of the activity class and the workflow section from the ProvONE model ([RD.2]) to define low-level workflows.

description: The sympathetic postganglionic nerve fibers, which are controlled by preganglionic fibers originating from specific nuclei in the medulla oblongata, and the thoracic and upper lumbar segments of the spinal cord, together with the local autoregulatory mechanisms and circulating hormones, directly influence the cardiovascular function. Recently, the studies on the sympathetic preganglionic fibers have remarkably progressed, and the anatomical (Strack et al., 1988), functional (Janig, 1985), and chemical (Krukoff, 1985) characteristics of the synaptic input have been clarified. However, the peripheral sympathetic nerve activities vary depending on the organs concerned (including the skin, muscle, or internal organs) as they have their own physiological characteristics (Janig and McLachlan, 1986) including the response pattern to the peripheral receptor stimulation. Many areas, including the histological and functional roles of the peripheral part, nerve centers, and central pathway of the circulatory system, are still unknown. The peripheral sympathetic nerve activities in humans consist of the skin sympathetic activity (SSA) that controls the sweat glands / skin vasomotion, and the muscle sympathetic activity (MSA) that controls the vascular smooth muscles in the skeletal muscles, and each activity has different characteristics. SSA involving regulation of the body temperature and MSA involving regulation of the blood pressure can be separately recorded (Burke et al., 1977; Hagbarth et al., 1975; Vallbo et al., 1979; Wallin and Eckberg, 1982; Yatomi et al., 1989) from the sympathetic postganglionic efferent fibers by microneurography (Hagbarth et al., 1972). By recording and comparing the action patterns and responses to stimulations of the premotor nuclei, along with other vital rhythms, we hoped to clarify the complex mechanism of the sympathetic nerve activities and to contribute in the treatment of disorders resulting from sympathetic dysfunction. We also report our findings on the premotor nuclei that produce sympathetic preganglionic fiber activities by using topographic mapping analysis of the changes in the central action potentials in the rostral ventrolateral medulla oblongata (RVLM) region to visually capture the complicated action patterns to compare the cross correlations with MSA and SSA using microneurography and ECG.

description: We study the star cluster population of NGC 2997, a giant spiral galaxy located at 9.5 Mpc and targeted by the Snapshot Hubble U-band Cluster Survey (SHUCS). Combining our U-band imaging from SHUCS with archival BVI imaging from HST, we select a high confidence sample of clusters in the circumnuclear ring and disk through a combination of automatic detection procedures and visual inspection. The cluster luminosity functions in all four filters can be approximated by power-laws with indices of $-1.7$ to $-2.3$. Some deviations from pure power-law shape are observed, hinting at the presence of a high-mass truncation in the cluster mass function. However, upon inspection of the cluster mass function, we find it is consistent with a pure power-law of index $-2.2\pm0.2$ despite a slight bend at $\sim$$2.5\times10^{4}$ M$_{\odot}$. No statistically significant truncation is observed. From the cluster age distributions, we find a low rate of disruption ($ζ\sim-0.1$) in both the disk and circumnuclear ring. Finally, we estimate the cluster formation efficiency ($Γ$) over the last 100 Myr in each region, finding $7\pm2$% for the disk, $12\pm4$% for the circumnuclear ring, and $10\pm3$% for the entire UBVI footprint. This study highlights the need for wide-field UBVI coverage of galaxies to study cluster populations in detail, though a small sample of clusters can provide significant insight into the characteristics of the population.

description: We study scaling behavior of a chiral order parameter in the low density region, performing a simulation of two-flavor QCD with improved Wilson quarks. The scaling behavior of the chiral order parameter defined by a Ward-Takahashi identity agrees with the scaling function of the three-dimensional O(4) spin model at zero chemical potential. We extend the scaling study to finite density QCD. Applying the reweighting method and calculating derivatives of the chiral order parameter with respect to the chemical potential, the scaling properties of the chiral phase transition are discussed in the low density region. We moreover calculate the curvature of the phase boundary of the chiral phase transition in the temperature and chemical potential plane assuming the O(4) scaling relation.

description: Over the last 50 years there have been demands to increase the quality of animals used for research. The numbers of animals used for individual projects have in the same period decreased, while the efforts put on the single animal to secure the highest scientific output from it have increased. Basically this is a very important part of both “refinement” and “reduction”; those two of the three R’s which, it previously has been argued, were less in focus than the last R, ‘replacement’ (Nevalainen, 2005).

description: Intragastric (IG)-gavage is widely used in laboratory rats in pharmacological, toxicological and pharmacokinetic studies. This technique has been claimed to result in severe stress and a variety of complications. This study was designed to compare the stress response caused by IG-gavage with steel and teflon probes, to determine whether any habituation occurred to repeated gavaging and to find out whether the use of different administration volumes within the recommended range influenced the stress response. Telemetrically registered cardiovascular responses were used to assess the stress-producing effects. During laparoscopy, transmitters with a catheter extending into the abdominal aorta were implanted into the peritoneal cavity of male Wistar rats. IG-gavage induced a significant increase in diastolic and systolic blood pressure and heart rate, lasting for about 40 minutes. IG-gavage with a stainless steel probe induced greater changes in cardiovascular parameters. It can be concluded that teflon probes are preferable because they elicit less discomfort to the animals. Repeating the IG-gavage with a teflon probe daily evoked a decrease of all parameters on the fourth day as compared with the previous days, but this did not occur in the stainless steel group. The volume administered through IG-gavage had significant effects on diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure and heart rate. Surprisingly, volumes of 2 and 4 ml / kg body weight resulted in a greater response in cardiovascular parameters than volumes of 6 and 8 ml/kg. It appears that there is a window of preferred administration volumes. A routine cage change induced an increase in diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure and heart rate comparable to the changes observed after IGgavage. In conclusion, our data indicate that use of IG-gavage with a soft teflon probe and volumes 6 and 8 ml/kg are obvious refinements for the procedure.

description: To identify the microscopic mechanism of heavy-fermion Cooper pairing is an unresolved challenge in quantum matter studies; it may also relate closely to finding the pairing mechanism of high temperature superconductivity. Magnetically mediated Cooper pairing has long been the conjectured basis of heavy-fermion superconductivity but no direct verification of this hypothesis was achievable. Here, we use a novel approach based on precision measurements of the heavy-fermion band structure using quasiparticle interference (QPI) imaging, to reveal quantitatively the momentum-space (k-space) structure of the f-electron magnetic interactions of CeCoIn5. Then, by solving the superconducting gap equations on the two heavy-fermion bands $E_k^{α,β}$ with these magnetic interactions as mediators of the Cooper pairing, we derive a series of quantitative predictions about the superconductive state. The agreement found between these diverse predictions and the measured characteristics of superconducting CeCoIn5, then provides direct evidence that the heavy-fermion Cooper pairing is indeed mediated by the f-electron magnetism.

description: The observation of Ising quasiparticles is a signatory feature of the hidden order phase of URu$_2$Si$_2$. In this paper we discuss its nature and the strong constraints it places on current theories of the hidden order. In the hastatic theory such anisotropic quasiparticles are naturally described described by resonant scattering between half-integer spin conduction electrons and integer-spin Ising moments. The hybridization that mixes states of different Kramers parity is spinorial; its role as an symmetry-breaking order parameter is consistent with optical and tunnelling probes that indicate its sudden development at the hidden order transition. We discuss the microscopic origin of hastatic order, identifying it as a fractionalization of three body bound-states into integer spin fermions and half-integer spin bosons. After reviewing key features of hastatic order and their broader implications, we discuss our predictions for experiment and recent measurements. We end with challenges both for hastatic order and more generally for any theory of the hidden order state in URu$_2$Si$_2$.

description: In animal research placement, of a flow probe on the aorta provides more accurate cardiac output measurements than alternative clinical methods, such as thermodilution. However, good advice on how to place such a probe in the laboratory setting is lacking. In twenty anesthetized dogs midline sternotomy and left thoracotomy approaches to the ascending aorta, using surgical (forceps with scissors) or blunt finger dissection to separate the aorta from the adjacent pulmonary artery (four groups of five dogs), were compared. A Transonic A-probe was placed around the aorta. Hematocrit was compared before and after surgery. The operative site was inspected for bleeding at post mortem. Two dogs died from massive pulmonary artery hemorrhage in the surgical dissection groupings. At post mortem, bleeding around the probe had occurred in five dogs in the surgical dissection groupings. Significant decreases in hemoglobin occurred in the sternotomy and surgical dissection groupings (P<0.05). Thoracotomy with blunt finger dissection to mobilize the aorta was associated with minimal operative blood loss. It was subsequently used successfully for flow probe placement in over fifty dog experiments each lasting 8-12h.

description: In order to study the ISM and the interplay between the atomic and molecular components in a low-metallicity environment, we present a complete high angular and spectral resolution map and data cube of the 12CO(2-1) emission from the Local Group galaxy M33. Its metallicity is roughly half-solar, such that we can compare its ISM with that of the Milky Way with the main changes being the metallicity and the gas mass fraction. The data have a 12" angular resolution (50pc) with a spectral resolution of 2.6 km/s and a mean noise level of 20 mK per channel in antenna temperature. A radial cut along the major axis was also observed in the 12CO(1-0) line. The CO data cube and integrated intensity map are optimal when using HI data to define the baseline window and the velocities over which the CO emission is integrated. Great care was taken when building these maps, testing different windowing and baseline options and investigating the effect of error beam pickup. The total CO(2-1) luminosity is 2.8e7 K km/s pc2, following the spiral arms in the inner disk. There is no clear variation in the CO(2-1/1-0) intensity ratio with radius and the average value is roughly 0.8. The total molecular gas mass is estimated, using a N(H2)/Ico(1-0)=4e20 cm-2/(K km/s) conversion factor, to be 3.1e8 Msol. The CO spectra in the cube were shifted to zero velocity by subtracting the velocity of the HI peak from the CO spectra. Hence, the velocity dispersion between the atomic and molecular components is extremely low, independently justifying the use of the HI line in building our maps. Stacking the spectra in concentric rings shows that the CO linewidth and possibly the CO-HI velocity dispersion decrease in the outer disk. Using the CO(2-1) emission to trace the molecular gas, the probability distribution function of the H2 column density shows an excess at high column density above a log normal distribution.

description: The value of experimental arthritis models in animals depends on their morphological and immunological similarities to rheumatoid arthritis even if they are not exact counterparts of the human diseases. Many uncertainties regarding rheumatoid arthritis pathogenetic mechanisms persist, including unknown factors and the liberation of arthritogenic antigens. The purpose of the study was to compare experimental arthritis in rabbits induced by intra-articular injections of whole synovial fluid obtained from patients with active rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, which followed sensitization with synovial fluid in complete Freund’s adjuvant. The results showed that rheumatoid synovial fluid-induced arthritis is very reproducible and strikingly similar to the rheumatoid arthritis where the arthritis exacerbations and immunological processes occur all the way from cellular immunity to persistent chronic arthritis.

description: In a group of 50 wild-caught vervet monkeys trapped for experimental studies, 23 developed severe diarrhoea during the quarantine period. While 10 of these responded well to routine treatment with metronidazole, kaomycin and oral electrolytes, 13 initially showed slight improvement but later relapsed. Five of these failed to respond altogether and were euthanised. Fresh faecal samples were collected from the surviving eight monkeys and analysed for microbiology and drug sensitivity. Campylobacter jejuni, sensitive to erythromycin, was isolated from all the faecal samples. Following treatment with erythromycin, seven monkeys recovered fully within ten days but one died before the end of therapy. This study indicates that wild non-human primates may play a significant role as a reservoir of C. jejuni, whereby they may act as natural carriers of this human pathogen. Screening for Campylobacter sp in newly acquired monkeys is advisable as part of the quarantine procedures.

First-principles microscopic model of exchange-driven magnetoelectric response with application to Cr$_2$O$_3$

description: The exchange-driven contribution to the magnetoelectric susceptibility $\hatα$ is formulated using a microscopic model Hamiltonian coupling the spin degrees of freedom to lattice displacements and electric field, which may be constructed from first-principles data. Electronic and ionic contributions are sorted out, and the latter is resolved into a sum of contributions from different normal modes. If intrasublattice spin correlations can be neglected, the longitudinal component $α_\parallel$ becomes proportional to the product of magnetic susceptibility and sublattice magnetization in accordance with Rado's phenomenological model. As an illustration, the method is applied to analyze the temperature dependence of the longitudinal magnetoelectric susceptibility of Cr$_2$O$_3$ using first-principles calculations and the quantum pair cluster approximation for magnetic thermodynamics. A substantial electronic contribution is found, which is opposite to the ionic part. The sensitivity of the results to the Hubbard $U$ parameter and the sources of error are studied. It is also found that non-Heisenberg interactions are too weak to account for the sign change of $α_\parallel$ in Cr$_2$O$_3$.

Social Distance & Personal Networks Effects on Similarity Towards Immigrants

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: immigration, personal networks, similarity, conjoint

description: In this pilot study, I use a conjoint survey experiment to evaluate how social distance and personal networks of native-born individuals (those with no immigrant history) and multi- generational immigrants (themselves or their parents have an immigrant history) impact perceptions of similarity towards immigrants. Students sampled, both with an immigrant history and those without, viewed immigrants with high educational attainment as similar to themselves and those with limited or accented English as dissimilar to themselves. As well, respondents with an immigrant background view immigrants from Nigeria as dissimilar to themselves compared to immigrants from China. The implications of this study lay the foundation for future work to fully understand how personal network make-up and social distance impact a subjective sense of similarity as a consequence of the dynamics and symbiotic processes of integration.
