description: The role of solvent quality in determining the universal material properties of dilute polymer solutions undergoing steady simple shear flow is examined. A bead-spring chain representation of the polymer molecule is used, and the influence of solvent molecules on polymer conformations is modelled by a narrow Gaussian excluded volume potential that acts pair-wise between the beads of the chain. Brownian dynamics simulations data, acquired for chains of finite length, and extrapolated to the limit of infinite chain length, are shown to be model independent. This feature of the narrow Gaussian potential, which leads to results identical to a $δ$-function repulsive potential, enables the prediction of both universal crossover scaling functions and asymptotic behavior in the excluded volume limit. Universal viscometric functions, obtained by this procedure, are found to exhibit increased shear thinning with increasing solvent quality. In the excluded volume limit, they are found to obey power law scaling with the characteristic shear rate $β$, in close agreement with previously obtained renormalization group results. The presence of excluded volume interactions is also shown to lead to a weakening of the alignment of the polymer chain with the flow direction.

 Distribution. From Ukraine and south Russia to Kazakhstan, Anatolia, Caucasus, Iran, Levant. The very old record from Arabia (see below) could refer to some areas of the northern Arabian Desert in Jordan or Iraq.
 Remarks. Species belonging to the H. sexmaculatus group previously discussed.
 In the MNHU we examined the Type of Mylabris bimaculata Klug, 1845, which was always considered as a distinct species of the same group. The female Type, associated with four other specimens, probably Syntypes (two from Arabia and two from Syria), has the following labels: “ bimaculata N. Arab. Ol. ” (yellow, original, handwritten), “28658” (printed); “Hist. Coll. Nr. 28658” (printed); Zool. Mus. Berl.” (printed, recent). These specimens actually refer to H. sexmaculatus; consequently, we propose the new synonymy Mylabris bimaculata Klug, 1845 = Hycleus sexmaculatus (Olivier, 1811).

description: We investigate analytically as well as numerically effects of nonlinear Born-Infeld (BI) electrodynamics on the properties of (1+1)-dimensional holographic $p$-wave superconductor in the context of gauge/gravity duality. We consider the case in which the gauge and vector fields backreact on the background geometry. We apply the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem for the analytical approach as well as the shooting method for the numerical calculations. In both methods, we find out the relation between critical temperature $T_{c}$ and chemical potential $μ$ and show that both approaches are in good agreement with each other. We find that if one strengthen the effect of backreaction as well as nonlinearity, the critical temperature decreases which means that the condensation is harder to form. We also explore the conductivity of the one-dimensional holographic $p$-wave superconductor for different values of b and $T/T_{c}$. We find out that the real and imaginary parts of the conductivity have different behaviors in higher dimensions. The effects of different values of temperature is more apparent for larger values of nonlinearity parameter. In addition, for the fixed value of $T/T_{c}$ by increasing the effect of nonlinearity we observe larger values for Drude-like peak in real part of conductivity and deeper minimum for imaginary part.

SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY SYNDROME/ WILKIE SYNDROME –A CASE REPORT
Creators: name: Afreen Munir*, Arun pandian, Haja Sherief Sheik, T. Sivakumar
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Abstract:

Wilkie's syndrome is an uncommon condition resulting from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) at its origin exerting extrinsic compression on the duodenum's third segment. The non-specific and fluctuating symptoms include postprandial symptoms include weight loss, anorexia, early satiety, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain.

Objectives: To aware diagnose and manage a rare case of Wilkie's Syndrome

Methodology: We brought in a female patient, 29 years old who previously experienced bilious vomiting, nausea, and cramping and pain in her abdomen. She had experienced a similar ailment for the previous year.Initial results fromUGD scanning reveal a duodenal air bubble.Duodenoscopy,which display the third and fourth segments of the duodenum dilated.UGD scanning reveal a duodenal air bubble. Duedenoscopy, which displays the third and fourth segments of duodenum dilated. No evidence of a lesion in the first or second portion of duodenum is seen on an upper GI scopy. Stomach was found to be normal, ruling out GERD. Following a laparoscopic (roux en y) Duodenojejunostomy, the patient's intraoperative results were in line with the diagnosis. There were no complications during the surgery or the recovery period, and the patient was released on the sixth day following surgery.

Conclusion: Wilkie's Syndrome is an uncommon illness. There have only been 500 cases worldwide to date. In long-term instances, surgery is the preferred course of treatment because non-surgical methods run the risk of deadly consequences such as severe malnourishment, imbalanced electrolytes, gastric rupture, spontaneous upper gastrointestinal bleeding, or abrupt cardiac collapse.

description: In this paper we study the isotropisation of a Generalized Scalar-Tensor theory with a massive scalar field. We find it depends on a condition on the Brans-Dicke coupling function and the potential and show that asymptotically the metric functions always tend toward a power or exponential law of the proper time. These results generalise and unify these of De Sitter in the case of a cosmological constant and of Cooley and Kitada in the case of an exponential potential.

description: In music source separation, the number of sources may vary for each piece and some of the sources may belong to the same family of instruments, thus sharing timbral characteristics and making the sources more correlated. This leads to additional challenges in the source separation problem. This paper proposes a source separation method for multiple musical instruments sounding simultaneously and explores how much additional information apart from the audio stream can lift the quality of source separation. We explore conditioning techniques at different levels of a primary source separation network and utilize two extra modalities of data, namely presence or absence of instruments in the mixture, and the corresponding video stream data.

description: Exact solutions of the equation governing the equilibrium magetohydrodynamic states of an axisymmetric plasma with incompressible flows of arbitrary direction [H. Tasso and G.N.Throumoulopoulos, Phys. Pasmas {\bf 5}, 2378 (1998)] are constructed for toroidal current density profiles peaked on the magnetic axis in connection with the ansatz $S=-ku$, where $S=d/d u [\varrho (dΦ/du)^2]$ ($k$ is a parameter, $u$ labels the magnetic surfaces; $\varrho(u)$ and $Φ(u)$ are the density and the electrostatic potential, respectively). They pertain to either unbounded plasmas of astrophysical concern or bounded plasmas of arbitrary aspect ratio. For $k=0$, a case which includes flows parallel to the magnetic field, the solutions are expressed in terms of Kummer functions while for $k\neq 0$ in terms of Airy functions. On the basis of a tokamak solution with $k\neq 0$ describing a plasma surrounded by a perfectly conducted boundary of rectangular cross-section it turns out that the Shafranov shift is a decreasing function which can vanish for a positive value of $k$. This value is larger the smaller the aspect ratio of the configuration.

description: Tissue accumulation of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) may occur because of TTR gene mutations (variant amyloid TTR amyloidosis, ATTRv), or as an age-related phenomenon (wild-type ATTR, ATTRwt). Cardiac sympathetic denervation has been reported in ATTRv, but has never been investigated in ATTRwt. Fifteen consecutive patients with ATTRwt cardiomyopathy (81% men, median age 82 years, no one with prior myocardial infarction) underwent Cadmium Zinc Telluride tomographic imaging for amyloid burden (99mTc-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate – 99mTc-HMDP), innervation (123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine – 123I-MIBG), and perfusion (99mTc-tetrofosmin). Median summed 99mTc-HMDP score was 60 (58–62), denoting a severe and diffuse amyloid burden. Planar 123I-MIBG examination showed decreased early and late H/M ratios (late H/M ratio: 1.5 [1.3–1.6], range 1.2–1.9, reference value ≥2.0). Summed 123I-MIBG score was 12 (6–22), with the most prominent denervation in the infero-septal, inferior, and infero-lateral regions; summed rest score was 7 (5–11), with lowest degrees of myocardial perfusion in the inferior and infero-septal regions. The correlation between amyloid burden (as relative 99mTc-HMDP uptake) and innervation (as relative 123I-MIBG uptake) did not achieve statistical significance at both segmental (p = .252) and regional level (p = .251). Nevertheless, denervation tended to worsen in parallel with the amyloid burden, and 123I-MIBG scores increased with 99mTc-HMDP scores. Segments and regions with prominent hypoperfusion also showed a higher degree of denervation (r = 0.500 and 0.591, respectively; both p Patients with ATTRwt cardiomyopathy display cardiac sympathetic denervation, particularly in the inferior and septal myocardial wall. Myocardial hypoperfusion has a similar regional pattern, while the amyloid burden is more extensive.

description: Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis) is a multisystem disease that presents with polyneuropathy and/or cardiomyopathy. DISCOVERY, a multicenter screening study, enrolled patients with clinically suspected cardiac amyloidosis to determine the frequency of transthyretin (TTR) mutations and assess disease characteristics. Of 1007 patients, the majority were from the US (84%), Black/African American (56%), male (63%), and with a mean (standard deviation) age of 65 (13) years. Among 1001 patients with genotyping results, 74 (7%) had a pathogenic TTR mutation (71/836 [8%] from the US). Val122Ile was the most common mutation, found in 11% of Black/African American patients overall; Black/African American ethnicity was an independent predictor of having a pathogenic TTR mutation. Additional independent predictors of such mutations in the total population and Black/African American group were interventricular septum thickness, low electrocardiogram voltage, and age. Pathogenic TTR mutations occurred in 8% of US patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis. Most mutations were Val122Ile, almost exclusively found in Black/African American patients. Disease often remains undetected until advanced and difficult to treat, therefore, clinicians should assess at-risk patients for hATTR amyloidosis as early as possible.

description: Three isostructural lanthanide coordination polymers (CPs) with the formula C3H3LnO6 [Ln = Pr (1), Ce (2), and Dy (3)] were solvothermally synthesized by self-assembly of lanthanide(III) and in-situ generated methanoic acid by the hydrolysis of N,N-dimethyl formamide. These CPs were characterized by FTIR, elemental analysis, PXRD, and single crystal analysis. The metal centered luminescence properties of these coordination polymers revealed that only the dysprosium based CP exhibited significant luminescence, and it was found to be selective for chemosensing of picric acid. 3 showed quenching efficiency of 89.7% with KSV value of 2.89 × 104 M−1. These coordination polymers were also exploited as photocatalysts for degradation of methylene blue, and the dysprosium based CP proved to be a fantastic photocatalyst with the degradation activity of 92% owing to its effective electronic transitions. The solvent-free thermolysis of these LnCPs fabricated CeO2 and Pr6O11 nanoparticles characterized by PXRD, FTIR, particle size analyzer, and elemental analysis.

description: Handshakes are fundamental and common greeting and parting gestures among humans. They are important in shaping first impressions as people tend to associate character traits with a person's handshake. To widen the social acceptability of robots and make a lasting first impression, a good handshaking ability is an important skill for social robots. Therefore, to test the human-likeness of a robot handshake, we propose an initial Turing-like test, primarily for the hardware interface to future AI agents. We evaluate the test on an android robot's hand to determine if it can pass for a human hand. This is an important aspect of Turing tests for motor intelligence where humans have to interact with a physical device rather than a virtual one. We also propose some modifications to the definition of a Turing test for such scenarios taking into account that a human needs to interact with a physical medium.

description: It's well known that multiple polylogarithms give rise to good unipotent variations of mixed Hodge-Tate structures. In this paper we shall {\em explicitly} determine these structures related to multiple logarithms and some other multiple polylogarithms of lower weights. The purpose of this explicit construction is to give some important applications: First we study of the limit mixed Hodge-Tate structures and make a conjecture relating the variations of mixed Hodge-Tate structures of multiple logarithms to those of general multiple {\em poly}logarithms. Then following Deligne and Beilinson we describe an approach to defining the single-valued real analytic version of the multiple polylogarithms which generalizes the well-known result of Zagier on classical polylogarithms. In the process we find some interesting identities relating single-valued multiple polylogarithms of the same weight $k$ when $k=2$ and 3. At the end of this paper, motivated by Zagier's conjecture we pose a problem which relates the special values of multiple Dedekind zeta functions of a number field to the single-valued version of multiple polylogarithms.

description: Attention-based encoder-decoder neural network models have recently shown promising results in goal-oriented dialogue systems. However, these models struggle to reason over and incorporate state-full knowledge while preserving their end-to-end text generation functionality. Since such models can greatly benefit from user intent and knowledge graph integration, in this paper we propose an RNN-based end-to-end encoder-decoder architecture which is trained with joint embeddings of the knowledge graph and the corpus as input. The model provides an additional integration of user intent along with text generation, trained with a multi-task learning paradigm along with an additional regularization technique to penalize generating the wrong entity as output. The model further incorporates a Knowledge Graph entity lookup during inference to guarantee the generated output is state-full based on the local knowledge graph provided. We finally evaluated the model using the BLEU score, empirical evaluation depicts that our proposed architecture can aid in the betterment of task-oriented dialogue system`s performance.

We evaluated the safety and efficacy of 28-day cycles of pomalidomide and dexamethasone in 153 previously treated patients with systemic AL amyloidosis. Ninety-nine (65%) were refractory to the last line of therapy and 54 (35%) had relapsed. The median number of previous lines of therapy was 3 (range: 2–7): 143 patients (93%) previously received bortezomib, 124 (81%) lenalidomide, 114 (75%) oral melphalan, and 37 (24%) underwent autologous stem cell transplant.

Based on the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation the steady state solution of the probability distribution function and its extrema have been investigated. It was found that fluctuations of the insect birth rate reduces the population of the insects while fluctuations of predation rate and the noise correlation can prevent the population of the insects from going into extinction. Noise in the model can induce a phase transition.

description: We revisit the long-standing question of the relation between image appreciation and its statistical properties. We generate two different sets of random images well distributed along three measures of entropic complexity. We run a large-scale survey in which people are asked to sort the images by preference, which reveals maximum appreciation at intermediate entropic complexity. We show that the algorithmic complexity of the coarse-grained images, expected to capture structural complexity while abstracting from high frequency noise, is a good predictor of preferences. Our analysis suggests that there might exist some universal quantitative criteria for aesthetic judgement.

description: We study the steady state properties of a genotype selection model in presence of correlated Gaussian white noise. The effect of the noise on the genotype selection model is discussed. It is found that correlated noise can break the balance of gene selection and induce the phase transition which can makes us select one type gene haploid from a gene group.

description: Galaxy clustering provides insightful clues to our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as well as the universe. The redshift assignment for the random sample is one of the key steps to measure the galaxy clustering accurately. In this paper, by virtue of the mock galaxy catalogs, we investigate the effect of two redshift assignment methods on the measurement of galaxy two-point correlation functions (hereafter 2PCFs), the Vmax method and the "shuffled" method. We found that the shuffled method significantly underestimates both of the projected 2PCFs and the two-dimensional 2PCFs in redshift space. While the Vmax method does not show any notable bias on the 2PCFs for volume-limited samples. For flux-limited samples, the bias produced by the Vmax method is less than half of the shuffled method on large scales. Therefore, we strongly recommend the Vmax method to assign redshifts to random samples in the future galaxy clustering analysis.

description: Aqueous light-harvesting systems in hydrogels formed by specific noncovalent interactions exhibit both solution and solid-state performance. In this work, the copolymerisation of acrylamide (AM), 4-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl) phenyl acrylate (vTPE), and guest units 1-benzyl-3vinylimidazolium (G) was carried out with initiator to form P(AM-vTPE-G). Then, supramolecular hydrogels were fabricated by dynamic host–guest interactions the guest unit and host molecule cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]). The aggregated tetraphenylethylene (TPE) moieties in the polymer chains aggregate together, possessed high fluorescence enhancement during the cross-linking process. Meanwhile, emission characteristics of the obtained aqueous light-harvesting systems were further examined by using the donor (supramolecular hydrogel) and acceptor (Eosin Y disodium salt) system. The process provides a novel method for the production of fluorescence and self–healing supramolecular hydrogel with various potential applications.

description: We study the relations governing the ring of quasiautomorphic forms associated to triangle groups with a single cusp, thereby extending our earlier results on Hecke groups. The Eisenstein series associated to these triangle groups are shown to satisfy Ramanujan-like identities. These identities in turn allow us to associate a nonlinear differential equation to each triangle group. We show that they are solved by the quasiautomorphic weight-2 Eisenstein series associated to the triangle group and its orbit under the group action. We conclude by discussing the Painlevé property of these nonlinear differential equations.

title: Nonlinear programming without a penalty function or a filter
Creators: name: Gould, N I M
name: Toint, PL
Publisher: name: STFC
Year: 2007

description: A new method is introduced for solving equality constrained nonlinear optimization problems. This method does not use a penalty function, nor a barrier or a filter, and yet can be proved to be globally convergent to first-order stationary points. it uses different trust-regions to cope with the nonlinearities of the objective function and the constraints, and allows inexact SQP steps that do not lie exactly in the nullspace of the local Jacobian. Preliminary numerical experiments on CUTEr problems indicate that the method performs well.

description: The aim of the note is to provide an introduction to the algebraic, geometric and quantum field theoretic ideas that lie behind the Kontsevich-Cattaneo-Felder formula for the quantization of Poisson structures. We show how the quantization formula itself naturally arises when one imposes the following two requirements to a Feynman integral: on the one side it has to reproduce the given Poisson structure as the first order term of its perturbative expansion; on the other side its three-point functions should describe an associative algebra. It is further shown how the Magri-Koszul brackets on 1-forms naturally fits into the theory of the Poisson sigma-model.

 Distribution. Recorded only from Saudi Arabia; new for the U.A.E. and Oman.
 New records. Oman: Muscat, Ruwi, iii.1976, K. Guichardt coll. 1 ex. (BMNH).
 U.A.E.: Abu Dhabi Emirate, Al Aïn, Al Bateen dunes, 18.iii.2000, M. Gillet coll. 2 exx. (CB, C. Krejcik).
 Remarks. The affinities of this species have been erroneously interpreted by Kaszab (1983), who related it to H. brunnipes. In fact, H. pseudobrunnipes also has the mesosternum (Fig. 18) of Mesogorbatus - type, but the male genitalia, never described before (Fig. 19), have the same structure as that of the group of H. quatuordecimsignatus (as defined by Pardo Alcaide 1963, and by Ruiz 2004), with two aedeagus hooks, the distal one very small, instead of a single distal hook as in the group of H. brunnipes. The reduction in length and thickness of the ventral lobe of the claws, sets apart this species within the group; this claw reduction is common to H. gratiosus (in this species the reduction is extreme), whose position is uncertain because the male genitalia are unknown. Therefore the group of H. quatuordecimsignatus includes at least four Saharo-Arabian species (see also Ruiz 2004): two endemic to the Western Sahara, namely H. rungsi (Peyerimhoff, 1935) and H. saharicus (Chobaut, 1901); H. quatuordecimsignatus (Marseul, 1870), widely distributed from Morocco to Egypt, Israel and Jordan; H. pseudobrunnipes (Kaszab, 1983) endemic to the Arabian Peninsula.
