description: This study examined incidental findings (IFs) in patients who underwent abdominal CT for urolithiasis. Out of 1,056 patients, 63.9% had IFs, with renal and extrarenal findings. Clinically significant IFs were found in 4.45% of patients, increasing with age. Most IFs were clinically insignificant. Early detection of these findings, especially in elderly patients, can improve treatment outcomes and survival rates. This study on IFs in abdominal CT scans for urolithiasis is important because it highlights the common occurrence of IFs in these scans. Identifying IFs, especially clinically significant ones, is crucial for early detection and treatment of potentially serious conditions. The study emphasizes the need for vigilance in reviewing CT scans to identify these incidental findings, particularly in elderly patients, as timely intervention can significantly improve patient outcomes and increase the chances of successful treatment.
 Bu çalışmada, ürolitiyazis nedeniyle abdominal BT çekilen hastalardaki insidental bulgular (İB) incelendi. Toplam 1.056 hastanın c,9'unda renal ve ekstrarenal bulgular içeren İF'ler saptandı. Klinik olarak anlamlı İF'ler hastaların %4,45'inde bulundu ve yaşla birlikte artış gösterdi. İF'lerin çoğu klinik olarak önemsizdi. Özellikle yaşlı hastalarda bu bulguların erken tespiti tedavi sonuçlarını ve sağkalım oranlarını iyileştirebilir. Ürolitiyazis için yapılan abdominal BT taramalarında İF'ler üzerine yapılan bu çalışma, bu taramalarda İF'lerin yaygın olarak görüldüğünü vurgulaması açısından önemlidir. İF'lerin, özellikle de klinik açıdan önemli olanların belirlenmesi, potansiyel olarak ciddi durumların erken teşhisi ve tedavisi için çok önemlidir. Çalışma, zamanında müdahale hasta sonuçlarını önemli ölçüde iyileştirebileceğinden ve başarılı tedavi şansını artırabileceğinden, özellikle yaşlı hastalarda bu tesadüfi bulguları belirlemek için BT taramalarının gözden geçirilmesinde dikkatli olunması gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır.

description: On 13 May 2024 this insightful webinar delve into the real-world performance of cutting-edge advancements in bio-based solutions within the paint and coatings industry, subjecting them to a rigorous reality check.

In the pursuit of sustainability, the transition from fossil-based to bio-based solutions is critical. The demand for high-performance ingredient alternatives, including bio-polymers, lipids, binders, fillers, pigments, and additives, is driving innovation in the paint and coatings markets. According to the American Coatings Association (2023), these components collectively constitute nearly 70% of the industry’s ingredients. Thus, bio-based solutions show great potential to enable a green a transition.

The EU-funded research project PERFECOAT is dedicated to developing bio-based solutions from waste and agricultural residues. Over two years of rigorous examination, PERFECOAT has successfully formulated innovative solutions tailored to meet industry standards and address sustainability challenges. Central to this endeavor is the meticulous testing of each ingredient in their final application as well as in formulation. Comprehensive evaluation methods cover a broad range of criteria, including chemical resistance, moisture resilience, abrasion resistance, and aesthetic factors such as color intensity and UV resistance.Join us as we unveil the results of our testing methodologies and showcase demonstrator paints tailored for industrial use-cases:

description: Resonant x-ray scattering shows that the bulk structure of the twist-bend liquid crystal phase, recently discovered in bent molecular dimers, has spatial periodicity without electron density modulation, indicating a lattice-free heliconical nematic precession of orientation that has helical glide symmetry. In situ study of the bulk helix texture for the dimer CB7CB shows an elastically-confined temperature-dependent minimum helix pitch, but a remarkable elastic softness of pitch in response to dilative stresses. Scattering from the helix is not detectable in the higher temperature nematic phase.

description: Breast cancer (BC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Cyclophosphamide (CTX) remains a mainstay in cancer therapy despite harmful adverse effects and cell death-resistances. To face this, combinational therapy of chemotherapies and immunotherapies has been proposed. IMMUNEPOTENT CRP (ICRP) is an immunotherapy that has cytotoxic effects in several cancer cells without affecting peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and CD3+ cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate cytotoxicity, the type of cytotoxic effect, and several features involved in cell death induced by the combination of CTX with ICRP (ICRP+CTX) in breast cancer cells as well as their effect on healthy cells. For this purpose, human and murine breast cancer cells, MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and 4T1, or PBMC were treated for 24 hours with ICRP, CTX or ICRP+CTX in different combination ratios for the assessment of cell death. Flow cytometry and microscopy were used to determine biochemical and morphological characteristics of cell death. Assays showed that ICRP in combination with CTX induce potentiated cell death manifested with morphological changes, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and caspase activation. In addition, it was determined that ICRP+CTX-cell death is caspase-independent in all the breast cancer cells assessed. On the other hand, ICRP did not affect CTX-cytotoxicity in PBMC. For all the above, we can propose that the combination of ICRP with CTX an effective combination therapy, promoting their use even in tumoral cells with defects on proteins implicated in the apoptotic pathway.

description: Oxidation of P-chiral 1,7-diphosphanorbornene 2 by atmospheric oxygen at 25°С or sulfurization with elemental sulfur at 80°С result in formation of enantiopure mixed-valent PIII, PV 7-oxo(thia)-1,7-diphosphanorbornenes 3, 4 with high regioselectivity. The catalytic activity for the prepared enantiopure monodentate phosphines with rigid bicyclic [2.2.1] structure was evaluated in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution of rac-1,3-diphenylallyl acetate with dimethyl malonate. Selective oxidation of the bridgehead phosphorus atom in 1,7-diphosphanorbornene 2 allows increasing the enantioselectivity of allylic alkylation from 14% to 63% ee.

description: In this work the strategy of the Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) to build a Latin American collaboration is presented. Installing Cosmic Rays detectors settled all around the Continent, from Mexico to the Antarctica, this collaboration is forming a community that embraces both high energy physicist and computer scientists. This is so because the data that are measured must be analytical processed and due to the fact that \textit{a priori} and \textit{a posteriori} simulations representing the effects of the radiation must be performed. To perform the calculi, customized codes have been implemented by the collaboration. With regard to the huge amount of data emerging from this network of sensors and from the computational simulations performed in a diversity of computing architectures and e-infrastructures, an effort is being carried out to catalog and preserve a vast amount of data produced by the water-Cherenkov Detector network and the complete LAGO simulation workflow that characterize each site. Metadata, Permanent Identifiers and the facilities from the LAGO Data Repository are described in this work jointly with the simulation codes used. These initiatives allow researchers to produce and find data and to directly use them in a code running by means of a Science Gateway that provides access to different clusters, Grid and Cloud infrastructures worldwide.

Η αρπαγή υπήρξε μια συνήθης πρακτική στη Ρωμαϊκή Αυτοκρατορία με δράστη έναν άντρα και θύμα μια γυναίκα, συνήθως παρθένα, με σκοπό τον γάμο μαζί της, χωρίς τη σύμφωνη γνώμη του πατέρα της. Ο Μεγάλος Κωνσταντίνος, αντιλαμβανόμενος τις κοινωνικές, οικονομικές και πολιτικές προεκτάσεις της αρπαγής με σκοπό τον γάμο, προώθησε μια νομοθεσία σκληρή για τον δράστη και τους συνεργούς του, αλλά και για την κόρη που απήχθηκε και για την οικογένειά της. Η παρούσα εργασία παρουσιάζει το ήδικτο, το σχολιάζει και εξηγεί τη θέση του ηδίκτου μέσα στον Κώδικα του Θεοδοσίου, όπου διασώζεται. Τέλος, παρουσιάζει και άλλες νομοθεσίες σχετικές με την απαγόρευση του γάμου με αρπαγή, μεταγενέστερων Ρωμαίων Αυτοκρατόρων, δεικνύοντας τη διαχρονικότητα του προβλήματος
description: The purpose of thIs master's thesis was to highlight the issue of the prohibition of kidnapping for the purpose of marriage (raptus), as presented in the edict of Constantine the Great. Rape was a common practice in the Roman Empire. The perpetrator was a man and the victim was a woman, usually a virgin. The perpetrator had the intention of marrying her without her father's consent. Constantine the Great, realizing the social, economic and political ramifications of kidnapping for the purpose of marriage, promoted legislation harsh for the perpetrator and his accomplices, but also for the abducted daughter and her family. This paper presents the edict, comments on it and explains the position of the edict in the Code of Theodosius, where it is preserved. Finally, it presents other legislation related to the prohibition of marriage by rapture, of later Roman Emperors, showing the timelessness of the problem

description: The Fisher-Rao metric from Information Geometry is related to phase transition phenomena in classical statistical mechanics. Several studies propose to extend the use of Information Geometry to study more general phase transitions in complex systems. However, it is unclear whether the Fisher-Rao metric does indeed detect these more general transitions, especially in the absence of a statistical model. In this paper we study the transitions between patterns in the Gray-Scott reaction-diffusion model using Fisher information. We describe the system by a probability density function that represents the size distribution of blobs in the patterns and compute its Fisher information with respect to changing the two rate parameters of the underlying model. We estimate the distribution non-parametrically so that we do not assume any statistical model. The resulting Fisher map can be interpreted as a phase-map of the different patterns. Lines with high Fisher information can be considered as boundaries between regions of parameter space where patterns with similar characteristics appear. These lines of high Fisher information can be interpreted as phase transitions between complex patterns.

description: During 2011, an international team of scientists successfully obtained for the first-time paleoDNA data from different samples of Lynx remains from the Iberian Peninsula. These results showed that these remains belonged to the species Lynx pardinus, which is, at present, one of the most critically endangered felids. One of the remains sampled in the aforementioned study comes from a small chasm called Avenc del Marge del Moro in the Garraf Massif, with an estimated absolute chronology of 21 ka. Further morphological studies reinforced the last evidence, corroborating the presence of Lynx pardinus from the Early to Late Pleistocene in Southern Europe. Here, we provide for the first time a detailed description of the lynx remains from Avenc del Marge del Moro, which consist of a remarkably complete fossil cranium, as well as several dentognathic and postcranial remains. In the light of the evidence reported the last 10 years for fossil L. pardinus and its past distribution throughout southern France and the Iberian and Italian Peninsulas, we further suggest a formal change of the vernacular name of this species to ‘Mediterranean lynx’. This also provides novel insight for future reintroduction opportunities of this species alongside the north Mediterranean coast in order to enhance its survival possibilities in wild ecosystems.

description: Interacting Fermi systems in the strongly correlated regime play a fundamental role in many areas of physics and are of particular interest to the condensed matter community. Though weakly inter- acting fermions are understood, strongly correlated fermions are difficult to describe theoretically as there is no small interaction parameter to expand about. Existing strong coupling theories rely heavily on the so-called many-body T-matrix approximation that sums ladder-type Feynman diagrams. Here, by acknowledging the fact that the effective interparticle interaction (i.e., the vertex function) becomes smaller above three dimensions, we propose an alternative way to reorganize Feynman diagrams and develop a theoretical framework for interacting Fermi gases beyond the ladder approximation. As an application, we solve the equation of state for three- and two-dimensional strongly interacting fermions and find excellent agreement with experimental [Science 335, 563 (2012)] and other theoretical results above the temperature 0.5TF .

description: As incomes rise, people consume more and produce more waste. The current rate of waste generation is estimated to be 2.01 billion tons per year, with a rising trend. It is expected to reach 3.4 billion tons by 2050 if the current rate of waste generation continues. This rising trend has an adverse effect on the environment and climate in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, which are estimated at 1.6 billion tons CO2eq in2016 from solid waste, which is around 5% of the total CO2eq emissions. This quantity is expected to rise to 2.6 billion tons CO2eq in 2050. Challenges in waste management are faced due to several factors, including the lack of standardized definition of municipal solid waste and lack of data collection of waste-related data.The objective of the Master Thesis is to get familiar with, and present, different types of waste, different types of waste disposal methods, challenges of, and to, appropriate waste management in emerging economies, and finally to make suggestions for appropriate waste management of MSW in emerging economies, based on literature review and mainly on the results of the analysis of waste data in the waste management planning software, WaPla, which has been developed by the Institute of Water Quality and Resource Management at the Technical University of Vienna. It provides an overview of waste flows in a city or a country and can identify the most affected waste disposal methods and the sources of highest emissions of unintended persistent organic pollutants and greenhouse gas.Using the WaPla software, the MT has presented 4 scenarios of waste-management planning based on the examples of the Chongwe District in Zambia and the Giza Governorate, the 6th of October City and the Sheikh Zayed City, in Egypt. The Master Thesis concludes that emerging economies should improve data collection of waste related data, as well as the coverage of waste collection and rather than increasing the usage of land as landfills/dumpsites, emerging economies should consider establishing waste-to-energy facilities to transform waste to resource.

description: The outcrop of San José de Gracia yields an agnostid assemblage that has been assigned to the middle Cambrian. Although agnostid trilobites are important biostratigraphic markers, the mosaic evolution of this group makes species-level determination difficult, and thus biostratigraphic correlations become cumbersome. The assemblage is described here using morphogroups of the ‘peronopsid’-like agnostids, and specimen-level phylogenetics is used to assess the statistical significance of assigning different ages to the final topology (stratigraphic fit), including the morphogroups as operational taxonomic units. A proper phylogenetic analysis requires considering modularity and ontogenetic development in agnostids, but the overall topology can respond to different stratigraphic calibrations even if the individual relationships are not resolved. Using the distribution of several stratigraphic fit metrics, namely SCI, GER and MSM*, we find that the biozone Plagiura-Poliella (509–598.4 Mya) is the one that offers the best stratigraphic fit for the outcrop of San José de Gracia, and it is consistent with the current biostratigraphic framework that has been built for the middle Cambrian of Sonora.

description: The Australian Dark Energy Survey (OzDES) is a 100-night spectroscopic survey underway on the Anglo-Australian Telescope using the fibre-fed 2-degree-field (2dF) spectrograph. We have developed a new redshifting application Marz with greater usability, flexibility, and the capacity to analyse a wider range of object types than the Runz software package previously used for redshifting spectra from 2dF. Marz is an open-source, client-based, Javascript web-application which provides an intuitive interface and powerful automatic matching capabilities on spectra generated from the AAOmega spectrograph to produce high quality spectroscopic redshift measurements. The software can be run interactively or via the command line, and is easily adaptable to other instruments and pipelines if conforming to the current FITS file standard is not possible. Behind the scenes, a modified version of the Autoz cross-correlation algorithm is used to match input spectra against a variety of stellar and galaxy templates, and automatic matching performance for OzDES spectra has increased from 54% (Runz) to 91% (Marz). Spectra not matched correctly by the automatic algorithm can be easily redshifted manually by cycling automatic results, manual template comparison, or marking spectral features.

Investigating mechanisms of trace metal metabolism and subcellular protein localization in marine phytoplankton
Creators: name: Shire, David Matthew
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Marine phytoplankton are responsible for half of global net primary production, serve as the base of the marine food web, and factor into numerous biogeochemical processes. In the open ocean, trace metal nutrients are depleted to concentrations that can regulate phytoplankton growth and community structure. Iron (Fe) limits primary production in large regions of the ocean, while metals such as zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) have more subtle effects. Selective pressures imposed by trace metal nutrient scarcity in the ocean have driven phytoplankton to develop characteristics and strategies that mitigate trace metal limitation, including decreased cellular requirements and high-affinity uptake pathways for Fe and Zn. Aspects of intracellular metal homeostasis in these organisms have also been shaped to enable strategies such as Fe storage in excess of quotas required for optimal growth and the flexible use of different metals to fulfill the same demands. Characterizing these strategies is essential for understanding interactions between trace metals, marine primary production, and other environmental conditions, and to predict how these interactions will be affected by projected climate scenarios. This dissertation contains three studies with the common goal of investigating mechanisms of trace metal metabolism in marine phytoplankton that allow their survival in metal-poor marine environments. The first explores luxury Fe storage in the cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus marinus. It presents Fe quotas and abundances of the Fe-storage protein ferritin under a range of Fe concentrations, and changes in ferritin abundance following shifts in Fe availability. The next study investigates mechanisms that enable the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi to use cobalt or cadmium to fulfill its Zn requirement. Comparing the proteomes of cultures grown under different trace metal treatments revealed proteins that were sensitive to individual metals and potentially facilitate Zn substitution or counteract stresses it imposes. The final study presents a spatially resolved proteome of the diatom T. pseudonana with a focus on its endomembrane system. The predicted subcellular locations of metal transporters and proteins that may facilitate Fe uptake and storage are discussed. The dissertation concludes with a review of the main findings of each section and a discussion of avenues for future research.

description: The phosphorus–oxygen bond formation reactions often observed for the sterically crowded triarylphosphines and their radical cations were studied by DFT calculation. The oxidations of the trimethyl-, triphenyl-, and trimesityl-phosphines to the corresponding phosphine oxides with peroxides are shown to proceed through the SN2 like transition states and the overall influence of the steric hindrance on the activation energy is limited. The reaction of the radical cation of tris(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)phosphine with oxygen to give the heterocyclic phosphonium cation is modeled by employing (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)diphenylphosphine and the comparison of the intermediates suggests highly exergonic nature of the reaction.

description: Dinomyidae is a family of rodents including one extant species, Dinomys branickii, but with a high past diversity. Gyriabrus is a large dinomyid with euhypsodont cheek teeth and an occlusal pattern that changes throughout the ontogeny of the animal. Eight species of Gyriabrus have been described in the late Miocene to Pliocene of Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia and Brazil. The taxonomic status of Gyriabrus has been questioned, being considered as juvenile forms of other euhypsodont dinomyids. According to this study, Gyriabrus has a unique dental anatomy among euhypsodont dinomyids and is a valid genus. A study of the cheek teeth permitted to propose an ontogenetic series. All the species described from the late Miocene of Argentina (Ituzaingó Formation) and Uruguay (Camacho Formation) belong to Gyriabrus holmbergi (including G. glutinatus, G. rebagliattii, G. indivisus and G. teisseirei), representing different wear stages. ?Gyriabrus quadratus, G. latidens (late Pliocene? of Argentina) and ?G. royoi (late Miocene-Pliocene of Colombia), all based on isolated teeth, are considered as valid species, pending future findings that allow a deeper comparison. This study contributes to the knowledge of the systematics, taxonomy and anatomy of extinct Dinomyidae, which are essential for future studies of the evolutionary history of the group.

description: The correlation between the transverse momentum and the azimuthal asymmetry the flow is studied. A correlation coefficient is defined between the average transverse momentum of hadrons emitted in an event and the square of the elliptic or triangular flow coefficient. The hydrodynamic model predicts a positive correlation of the transverse momentum with the elliptic flow, and almost no correlation with the triangular flow in Pb-Pb collisions at LHC energies. In p-Pb collisions the new correlation observable is very sensitive to the mechanism of energy deposition in the first stage of the collision.

description: In order to explore the impacts of limited hydrolysis combined with glycation modification on the structure, functional properties, allergenicity, and volatile compounds of silkworm pupae protein, the crude silkworm pupae protein was firstly extracted by alkaline-solution method, followed by Alcalase-treated limited hydrolysis for 10-30 min. Xylose was subsequently added and reacted for 1 h at 95 °C. Afterwards, the structure, functionality, allergenicity, and volatile compounds before and after modification were analysed. The molecular weight of modified silkworm pupae protein was remarkably decreased. The solubility was improved from 4.7 to 28.6%. The foaming ability was elevated by 21%. The in vitro digestibility was elevated by 34.0-44.4%. Furthermore, the abundance of six potential allergic proteins was remarkably reduced. In addition, the contents of off-flavour compounds in modified silkworm pupae proteins substantially decreased. Overall, limited hydrolysis combined with glycation modification can improve the functionality and flavour of silkworm pupae protein, while reduce the allergenicity.

title: Smoking Attentional bias: The Role of Automaticity, affect and cognitive control
Creators: name: Cane, James E
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: This thesis examines the presence of smoking attentional bias across smokers, smokers attempting to quit, and never-smokers and the role that affect, automaticity and cognitive control play in smoking attentional biases. It does so by: i) examining the relationship between smoking attentional bias and smoking status, ii) examining whether smoking attentional bias is automatic, iii) examining whether smoking attentional bias stems from the affective relationship of smoking stimuli, and iv) examining the interaction between smoking attentional bias and cognitive control. The thesis begins by describing theoretical models of attentional bias in addictions and the approaches taken to measure addiction-related attentional bias. It then examines previous findings in relation to abstinence, affect, automaticity and cognitive control and their role in smoking attentional bias. Finally, it presents seven empirical studies which examine the role of abstinence, affect, automaticity and cognitive control in relation to smoking attentional bias. In summary, the findings show strong evidence for smoking attentional bias in smokers and the presence of smoking attentional bias in smokers attempting to quit under certain conditions. Specifically, i) where there is explicit awareness of the presence of smoking stimuli, ii) where exposure to smoking stimuli is relatively long and iii) in conditions that yield greater anxiety. The findings also show evidence that smoking attentional bias is automatic in early stages of attentional processing and that it is unrelated to the explicit affective ratings of stimuli or smoking behaviour measures. There is also evidence that smoking attentional bias can be manipulated. It is concluded that previous models of addiction-related attentional bias do not sufficiently explain the underlying mechanisms of smoking attentional bias. Furthermore, it suggests that interventions which decrease the salience of smoking and decrease the exposure to smoking stimuli and anxiety will be more effective in reducing smoking attentional bias during quit attempts.

description: BACKGROUND: The importance of photographs in social media, the steep rise in popularity of tattoos, and the prominence of individuals with visibly different skin in fashion are likely to be changing the landscape of self- and public perception of birthmarks. Study objectives were to assess the impact of a photoshoot and public exhibition on the self-perception of individuals with extensive birthmarks, and to explore the viewing public's reactions. METHODS: Thirty individuals with congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) were recruited internationally. Each had a professional photoshoot portrait with their skin exposed, resulting in a public exhibition in London entitled "How do you C Me Now?" Participants/parents completed pre- and post-questionnaires relating to self-perception and the impact of their birthmarks on behavior. Over 8000 members of the public viewed the exhibition, 464 completing an on-site questionnaire on its effects. RESULTS: All participants/parents rated the experience as positive, valuable and helpful. Scores on self-appreciation and self-confidence were significantly higher after the photo shoot. Members of the general public overwhelmingly reported the exhibition increased their positive feelings towards people with birthmarks. The majority of public respondents also reported that the exhibition made them feel better about their own skin and about their looks in general. CONCLUSION: This unique exhibition and the associated research has provided a striking new perspective on potential psychological interventions for individuals with birthmarks.
Galilean non-invariance of Maxwell equations revisited

description: It is universally accepted that Maxwell equations do not remain invariant under the Galilean transformation. This conflicts the principle of relativity which states that the physical law must remain invariant in the mathematical form in all inertial frames of reference. For this reason the Lorentz transformation is invented, and the Galilean transformation is nowadays superseded by the Lorentz transformation.However, this paper challenges this widely held belief that the Maxwell equations are not invariant under the Galilean transformation. By applying the Galilean transformation to Liénard-Wiechert electromagnetic fields it is mathematically proven that the Maxwell equations indeed remain invariant under the Galilean transformation. In addition, the critical error in Lorentz’s proof of Galilean non-invariance of Maxwell equations is pointed out, and it turns out that the Lorentz’s conclusion that Maxwell equations are not invariant under the Galilean transformation is the result of a mathematical error.
