description: We establish rigorous error bounds for approximating correlation functions of conformal field theories (CFTs) by certain finite-dimensional tensor networks. For chiral CFTs, the approximation takes the form of a matrix product state. For full CFTs consisting of a chiral and an anti-chiral part, the approximation is given by a finitely correlated state. We show that the bond dimension scales polynomially in the inverse of the approximation error and sub-exponentially in the ultraviolett cutoff. We illustrate our findings using Wess-Zumino-Witten models, and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between group-covariant MPS and our approximation.

A search for quantitative trait loci controlling within-individual variation of physical activity traits in mice
Creators: name: Pomp, Daniel
Publisher: name: BioMed Central Ltd
Year: 2010

description: Abstract Background In recent years it has become increasingly apparent that physical inactivity can predispose individuals to a host of health problems. While many studies have analyzed the effect of various environmental factors on activity, we know much less about the genetic control of physical activity. Some studies in mice have discovered quantitative trait loci (QTL) influencing various physical activity traits, but mostly have analyzed inter-individual variation rather than variation in activity within individuals over time. We conducted a genome scan to identify QTLs controlling the distance, duration, and time run by mice over seven consecutive three-day intervals in an F2 population created by crossing two inbred strains (C57L/J and C3H/HeJ) that differed widely (average of nearly 300%) in their activity levels. Our objectives were (a) to see if we would find QTLs not originally discovered in a previous investigation that assessed these traits over the entire 21-day period and (b) to see if some of these QTLs discovered might affect the activity traits only in the early or in the late time intervals. Results This analysis uncovered 39 different QTLs, over half of which were new. Some QTLs affected the activity traits only in the early time intervals and typically exhibited significant dominance effects whereas others affected activity only in the later age intervals and exhibited less dominance. We also analyzed the regression slopes of the activity traits over the intervals, and found several QTLs affecting these traits that generally mapped to unique genomic locations. Conclusions It was concluded that the genetic architecture of physical activity in mice is much more complicated than has previously been recognized, and may change considerably depending on the age at which various activity measures are assessed.

description: We present a comprehensive new global QCD analysis of polarized inclusive deep-inelastic scattering, including the latest high-precision data on longitudinal and transverse polarization asymmetries from Jefferson Lab and elsewhere. The analysis is performed using a new iterative Monte Carlo fitting technique which generates stable fits to polarized parton distribution functions (PDFs) with statistically rigorous uncertainties. Inclusion of the Jefferson Lab data leads to a reduction in the PDF errors for the valence and sea quarks, as well as in the gluon polarization uncertainty at $x \gtrsim 0.1$. The study also provides the first determination of the flavor-separated twist-3 PDFs and the $d_2$ moment of the nucleon within a global PDF analysis.

description: Abstract Background Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) has emerged as a consistently replicated susceptibility gene for type 2 diabetes, however, whether the TCF7L2 gene also has similar effects on the retinal microvasculature is less clear. We therefore aimed to investigate the association between the transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) rs7903146 polymorphism and retinal microvascular phenotypes in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study (1993-1995). Methods This was a population-based, cross-sectional study of 10,320 middle-aged African American (n = 2,199) and Caucasian (n = 8,121) men and women selected from four United States communities to examine the association between TCF7L2 rs7903146 polymorphism and retinal microvascular signs (retinopathy, focal arteriolar narrowing, arteriovenous nicking, arteriolar and venular calibers). Photographs on one randomly selected eye were graded for presence of retinal microvascular signs and used to measure retinal vessel calibres. Results After adjusting for age, sex, study center, mean arterial blood pressure, total serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and other covariates, few associations of TCF7L2 rs7903146 and retinal microvascular signs were noted. TCF7L2 rs7903146 T risk allele was significantly associated with focal arteriolar narrowing in Caucasians with hypertension [odds ratio (OR)CT vs. CC (95% CI) = 1.25 (1.09-1.44); ORTT vs. CC = 1.56 (1.18-2.06); P = 0.002] and in Caucasians without diabetes [OR CT vs. CC = 1.18 (1.06-1.32); OR TT vs. CC = 1.40 (1.12, 1.75); P = 0.003]. No significant association of the TCF7L2 rs7903146 polymorphism and retinal vascular signs was noted among African American individuals. Conclusions TCF7L2 rs7903146 is not consistently associated with retinal microvascular signs. However, we report an association between the TCF7L2 rs7903146 polymorphism and focal arteriolar narrowing in Caucasians with hypertension or without diabetes. Further research in other large, population-based studies is needed to replicate these findings.

When in Rome: The Impact of Group Dynamics and Social Norms on Tax Behaviour
Creators: name: Rullo, Marika
name: Abrams, Dominic
name: Travaglino, Giovanni
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022

description: Ensuring that most people pay taxes is a central problem for most economies. The central proposition of the economic rational-choice perspective on this issue is that individuals’ level of tax compliance will be determined by their cost-benefit calculations. However, empirical tests have provided weak support for this assumption (Allingham & Sandmo, 1972; Kirchler, et al. 2007). Relatively unexplored is the impact of social norms and of group dynamics in determining individuals’ tax behavior. Using the Subjective Group Dynamics theory (SGDT; Abrams et al., 2000; Marques et al., 1998), this project addresses the new and important questions of how group dynamics impact individuals’ decisions about paying taxes. The proposed research will test the proposition that it is people’s self conceptualisation in relation to tax-payers and tax-evaders, and their perception of social norms around evasion that should contribute strongly to their tax behavior.

Multilayered epithelium in a rat model and human Barrett's esophagus: Similar expression patterns of transcription factors and differentiation markers
Creators: name: Chen, Xiaoxin

Publisher: name: BioMed Central Ltd
Year: 2008

description: Abstract Background In rats, esophagogastroduodenal anastomosis (EGDA) without concomitant chemical carcinogen treatment leads to gastroesophageal reflux disease, multilayered epithelium (MLE, a presumed precursor in intestinal metaplasia), columnar-lined esophagus, dysplasia, and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Previously we have shown that columnar-lined esophagus in EGDA rats resembled human Barrett's esophagus (BE) in its morphology, mucin features and expression of differentiation markers (Lab. Invest. 2004;84:753–765). The purpose of this study was to compare the phenotype of rat MLE with human MLE, in order to gain insight into the nature of MLE and its potential role in the development of BE. Methods Serial sectioning was performed on tissue samples from 32 EGDA rats and 13 patients with established BE. Tissue sections were immunohistochemically stained for a variety of transcription factors and differentiation markers of esophageal squamous epithelium and intestinal columnar epithelium. Results We detected MLE in 56.3% (18/32) of EGDA rats, and in all human samples. As expected, both rat and human squamous epithelium, but not intestinal metaplasia, expressed squamous transcription factors and differentiation markers (p63, Sox2, CK14 and CK4) in all cases. Both rat and human intestinal metaplasia, but not squamous epithelium, expressed intestinal transcription factors and differentiation markers (Cdx2, GATA4, HNF1α, villin and Muc2) in all cases. Rat MLE shared expression patterns of Sox2, CK4, Cdx2, GATA4, villin and Muc2 with human MLE. However, p63 and CK14 were expressed in a higher proportion of rat MLE compared to humans. Conclusion These data indicate that rat MLE shares similar properties to human MLE in its expression pattern of these markers, not withstanding small differences, and support the concept that MLE may be a transitional stage in the metaplastic conversion of squamous to columnar epithelium in BE.

ECOPHYSIOLOGY OF NEOMYSIS INTEGER (MYSIDACEA: PERACARIDA)
Creators: name: ROAST, STEPHEN DEREK
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1997

description: Neomysis integer (Leach) (Peracarida: Mysidacea) is a common component of the hyperbenthos of Western European estuaries, and this study focused on the ecophysiology and ecotoxicology of this mysid. Behavioural and physiological responses of N. integer to physical and chemical variables (current velocity, substratum type, temperature and salinity) were measured in the laboratory to gain better understanding of how this mysid maintains position in estuaries. Current velocity was the most important factor controlling position maintenance, and N. integer had a maximum swimming speed of c. 9cm sˉ¹. Position maintenance was facilitated by a muddy substratum and was not affected by salinity. Oxygen consumption and feeding rates of N. integer increased with increasing temperature but, whilst oxygen consumption decreased with increasing salinity, feeding rate increased. Male mysids consumed oxygen at a higher rate than females, however, there was no difference in the feeding rates of males and females. The acute toxicity of two organophosphate pesticides (chlorpyrifos and dimethoate) to N. integer was examined, and 96h LC50 values of 0.13µg chlorpyrifos Lˉ¹ and 0.54mg dimethoate Lˉ¹ were estimated. Sub-lethal exposure to chlorpyrifos led to an increased rate of oxygen consumption and decreased feeding rates compared with control animals. In addition, chlorpyrifos exposure led to disrupted behaviour of N. integer, including hyperactivity and decreased maximum swimming speed. The results are discussed in terms of the behaviour and physiology of N. integer in response to natural and anthropogenic physical and chemical variables in the natural environment. The potential of N. integer as a toxicity testing species, and the sublethal responses used in the study, are critically assessed.

description: In September 2006 an archaeological survey of 120 acres, commissioned by Air Education and Training Command (AETC), was conducted on Parcel G of Goodfellow Air Force Base (AFB) by Geo-Marine, Inc. (GMI) in support of land acquisition for privatized military family housing. The archaeological survey resulted in the relocation of site 41TG218 and the discovery of two new archaeological sites (41TG607 and 41TG608). Given that the proposed project is designating a 300-foot-wide buffer zone along the Concho River, the proposed construction activities would not impact sites 41TG218 and 41TG607. Therefore, the proposed project would have no effect on historic properties. No further archaeological investigations are necessary.

description: Determining and analyzing the spectra of graphs is an important and exciting research topic in theoretical computer science. The eigenvalues of the normalized Laplacian of a graph provide information on its structural properties and also on some relevant dynamical aspects, in particular those related to random walks. In this paper, we give the spectra of the normalized Laplacian of iterated subdivisions of simple connected graphs. As an example of application of these results we find the exact values of their multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff index, Kemeny's constant and number of spanning trees.
Hyper-Fit: Fitting Linear Models to Multidimensional Data with Multivariate Gaussian Uncertainties

description: Astronomical data is often uncertain with errors that are heteroscedastic (different for each data point) and covariant between different dimensions. Assuming that a set of D-dimensional data points can be described by a (D - 1)-dimensional plane with intrinsic scatter, we derive the general likelihood function to be maximised to recover the best fitting model. Alongside the mathematical description, we also release the hyper-fit package for the R statistical language (github.com/asgr/hyper.fit) and a user-friendly web interface for online fitting (hyperfit.icrar.org). The hyper-fit package offers access to a large number of fitting routines, includes visualisation tools, and is fully documented in an extensive user manual. Most of the hyper-fit functionality is accessible via the web interface. In this paper we include applications to toy examples and to real astronomical data from the literature: the mass-size, Tully-Fisher, Fundamental Plane, and mass-spin-morphology relations. In most cases the hyper-fit solutions are in good agreement with published values, but uncover more information regarding the fitted model.

description: With increasing Canadian interest in brownfield redevelopment, many Ontario municipalities have begun to use financial tools such as tax increment equivalent grants to stimulate redevelopment. This article, based on a panel presentation given at the joint OPPI/CIP Conference in July 2004, entitled "Urban Innovations: Financial Tools in Brownfield Revitalization", focuses on the City of Toronto's experience in providing financial tools for brownfield redevelopment under the existing legislative framework. Comparing the use of these tools with similar revitalization tools in the United States, such as tax increment financing, provides insight into other potential applications based on the American experience.
description: Alors que les Canadiens s'intéressent de plus en plus à la remise en valeur de la friche industrielle, maintes municipalités ontariennes ont commencé à avoir recours à des mesures financières, comme des subventions équivalentes à des nouvelles taxes foncières, pour stimuler ces initiatives. Cet article, qui est basé sur un exposé intitulé « Urban Innovations: Financial Tools in Brownfield Revitalization » présenté par des experts lors du congrès de l'OPPI et de l'ICU en juillet 2004, s'intéresse à l'expérience de la Ville de Toronto à offrir des outils financiers ciblant la remise en valeur de la friche industrielle, compte tenu du cadre législatif actuel. La comparaison de l'emploi de ces outils avec des outils semblables employés aux Etats-Unis, comme le financement par de nouvelles taxes foncières, donne un aperçu d'applications possibles, dérivées de l'expérience américaine.

description: This review aims to explore the following questions regarding innovations that have been used to support and upskill frontline child welfare professionals: 1) What are the characteristics and outcomes of the innovations that have been used to support and upskill frontline child welfare professionals? 2) How were these innovations implemented? Inclusion criteria: -Peer reviewed -English language -Discusses an innovation with a central focus on the child welfare system (abstract screening only); discusses an innovation with a central focus on frontline child welfare professionals (full-text screening) Exclusion criteria -Systematic review/scoping review/narrative review/meta-analysis -Child welfare system not a central focus (abstract screening only); frontline child welfare professionals not a primary focus (full-text screening) -Does not discuss an innovation Participants/population Target population: frontline child welfare professionals who were introduced to an innovation to support their knowledge, wellbeing, engagement skills, or other area of practice. For the purpose of this study, frontline child welfare professionals include case managers and their supervisors. Due to the hierarchical structure of child welfare agencies and the ongoing need for organisational-level change, it is common for multiple departmental roles and external areas to be targeted by innovations. Consequently, frontline workers may not be the sole recipients of a chosen innovation. Given the scoping review is interested in innovations implemented to support frontline child welfare professionals, the included studies will incorporate frontline workers as a central focus even if this occurs alongside other areas of the department.

description: There is growing recognition that doctors need to deliver person-centered care. More evidence is needed on how to best equip students in an already busy curriculum. Providing medical students with the opportunity to work as Healthcare Assistants (HCAs) can help them develop the desired skills. This study examined medical students’ experiences of working as HCAs and perceived impact on their future practice. Adopting an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis approach, we analyzed narratives from two focus groups of 13 ‘Year 0ʹ and ‘Year 1ʹ medical students, who had completed an HCA project. This project allowed participants to experience a new dimension of patient care whereby learning by “doing” evolved to a deeper level of “knowing” patients, the HCA role and the wider team. Four major themes were identified: seeing the doctor: gaining new perspectives; building confidence: learning from and about patients; understanding the overall patient experience: providing personal care; finding “the person behind the patient”: exploring beyond the diagnosis. This study suggests that working as an HCA enables participants to develop sustainable skills that equip them for their future role as doctors able to deliver person-centered care as part of an interprofessional team. Recommendations for inclusion of this type of intervention into the medical curriculum are discussed.
Two nucleotide second messengers regulate the production of the Vibrio cholerae colonization factor GbpA

description: Abstract Background The nucleotide second messengers cAMP and c-di-GMP allow many bacteria, including the human intestinal pathogen Vibrio cholerae, to respond to environmental stimuli with appropriate physiological adaptations. In response to limitation of specific carbohydrates, cAMP and its receptor CRP control the transcription of genes important for nutrient acquisition and utilization; c-di-GMP controls the transition between motile and sessile lifestyles often, but not exclusively, through transcriptional mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the convergence of cAMP and c-di-GMP signaling pathways in regulating the expression of gbpA. GbpA is a colonization factor that participates in the attachment of V. cholerae to N-acetylglucosamine-containing surfaces in its native aquatic environment and the host intestinal tract. Results We show that c-di-GMP inhibits gbpA activation in a fashion independent of the known transcription factors that directly sense c-di-GMP. Interestingly, inhibition of gbpA activation by c-di-GMP only occurs during growth on non-PTS dependent nutrient sources. Consistent with this result, we show that CRP binds to the gbpA promoter in a cAMP-dependent manner in vitro and drives transcription of gbpA in vivo. The interplay between cAMP and c-di-GMP does not broadly impact the CRP-cAMP regulon, but occurs more specifically at the gbpA promoter. Conclusions These findings suggest that c-di-GMP directly interferes with the interaction of CRP-cAMP and the gbpA promoter via an unidentified regulator. The use of two distinct second messenger signaling mechanisms to regulate gbpA transcription may allow V. cholerae to finely modulate GbpA production, and therefore colonization of aquatic and host surfaces, in response to discrete environmental stimuli.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The dynamical interplay between electron-electron interactions and electron-phonon coupling is investigated within the Anderson-Holstein model, a minimal model for open quantum systems that embody these effects. The influence of phonons on spectral and transport properties is explored in equilibrium, for non-equilibrium steady state and for transient dynamics after a quench. Both the particle-hole symmetric and the more generic particle-hole asymmetric cases are studied. The treatment is based on two complementary non-crossing approximations, the first of which is constructed around the weak-coupling limit and the second around the polaron limit. In general, the two methods disagree in nontrivial ways, indicating that more reliable approaches to the problem are needed. The frameworks used here can form the starting point for numerically exact methods based on bold-line continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo algorithms capable of treating open systems simultaneously coupled to multiple fermionic and bosonic baths.

description: Secondary suites, or accessory apartments as they are known in the Guelph context, are an important source of rental housing. Although this housing stock may only be a "temporary" supply in certain instances, it is nevertheless an important resource for providing housing to lower income households. The municipality's regulatory system for providing this form of housing is based on an understanding of housing needs and demands and on balancing community standard expectations. This article outlines the planning process used to derive this balance, an examination of adopted planning policies and implementation regulations, and lessons learned along the way.
description: Les logements secondaires, ou appartements accessoires comme ifs sont appelés à Guelph, constituent une source importante de logements locatifs. Quoique ce stock de logements puisse n'être que « provisoire » dans certains cas, il demeure néanmoins un moyen important de loger les ménages moins bien nantis. Le régime réglementaire municipal qui permet la prestation de ce type de logement découle d'une compréhension des besoins et de la demande en matière de logement et de l'équilibre des attentes des citoyens à l'égard de leur collectivité. Le présent article rend compte de la démarche employée pour parvenir à cet équilibre et examine les politiques d'urbanisme en vigueur, les règlements de mise en oeuvre sous-jacents et les acquis en la matière.

description: We prove that a $n$-dimensional, $4 \leq n \leq 6$, compact gradient shrinking Ricci soliton satisfying a $L^{n/2}$-pinching condition is isometric to a quotient of the round $\mathbb{S}^{n}$. The proof relies mainly on sharp algebraic curvature estimates, the Yamabe-Sobolev inequality and an improved rigidity result for integral pinched Einstein metrics.
