description: Tricho-dento-osseous syndrome (TDO) is characterised by a variable clinical phenotype primarily affecting the hair, teeth, and bone. Different clinical features are observed between and within TDO families. It is not known whether the variable clinical features are the result of genetic heterogeneity or clinical variability. A gene for TDO was localised recently to chromosome 17q21 in four North Carolina families, and a 4 bp deletion in the human distal-less 3 gene (DLX3) was identified in all affected members. A previous genetic linkage study in a large Virginia kindred with TDO indicated possible linkage to the ABO, Gc, and Kell blood group loci. To examine whether TDO exhibits genetic heterogeneity, we have performed molecular genetic analysis to determine whether affected members of this Virginia kindred have the DLX3 gene deletion identified in North Carolina families. Results show that affected subjects (n=3) from the Virginia family have the same four nucleotide deletion previously identified in the North Carolina families. A common haplotype for three genetic markers surrounding the DLX3 gene was identified in all affected subjects in the North Carolina and Virginia families. These findings suggest that all people with TDO who have been evaluated have inherited the same DLX3 gene deletion mutation from a common ancestor. The variable clinical phenotype observed in these North Carolina and Virginia families, which share a common gene mutation, suggests that clinical variability is not the result of genetic heterogeneity at the major locus, but may reflect genetic heterogeneity at other epigenetic loci or contributing environmental factors or both.

description: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a halogenated aliphatic organic compound frequently detected as pollutant in soils and ground water. A multidisciplinary approach is often required to remediate TCE polluted sites and this PhD thesis faces this problem blending together three main topics, namely surfactant co-solvent flushing, phytoremediation and catalytic oxidation, to develop an effective remediation strategy. First of all we studied the diffusion mechanism of TCE in water to improve the models employed to describe the fate of the pollutant in the groundwater. In particular, we measured for the first time, the diffusion coefficient of TCE in water (8.16 ± 0.06 ×10-6 cm2s-1). Moreover, we tested a commercially available, low-impact and biodegradable green surfactant, namely Synperonic 91/5 (Syn 91/5), to enhance the aqueous solubility of trichloroethylene. The results showed that Syn 91/5 allowed to increase up to 15 times the TCE aqueous solubility. The aim of this part of the work is to improve surfactant co-solvent flushing technology using eco-compatible and low cost surfactants. In a later stage, we investigated the use of the plant Zea mays L. for the removal of high TCE concentrations from a growing medium, intended to be a laboratory model for soils and water phytoremediation. In previous works, Mays plants were successfully used for the phytoextraction of heavy metals contaminated sites. The idea was to exploit the phytoremediation capability of Z. mays for the remediation of TCE polluted sites. The results showed that in 9 days of exposition, the plant was able to metabolize TCE with an efficiency ranging from 15 to 20 %, depending on the total amount of the pollutant added in the system. Finally, we investigated a new green material to be used as catalyst for the total oxidation of TCE. Mayenite (C12A7) is a low cost material recently employed as active catalyst for several reactions. In this project we demonstrated that mayenite is able to oxidize TCE with better performances with respect to zeolites and other traditional catalysts. In particular, mayenite promoted the total oxidation of TCE in the temperature range 250-500° C, and the pollutant was converted in less harmful products such as CO2, CO and HCl.. [edited by Author]

Trends in Care for the Developmentally Disabled
Creators: name: Legner, James
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2003

description: During the past 30 years, significant changes have occurred in how healthcare providers serve the developmentally disabled population. Non-state agencies are more involved in care provision, replacing the state-run institutional model that prevailed for many decades. Increases in the quality and effectiveness of health care for the developmentally disabled has accompanied this shift in provision of care. As a result, a population with chronically low life expectancies is now producing its first comprehensive population of elderly persons. They present unique challenges to health-care providers, as they couple the needs of the elderly with the specialized care required by the developmentally disabled. Care providers are faced with daunting challenges, especially in today’s fiscal environment, as they strive to meet the needs of this emerging population.
A silent mutation, C924T (G308G), in the L1CAM gene results in X linked hydrocephalus (HSAS).

description: The L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) is a neuronal gene involved in the development of the nervous system. Mutations in L1CAM are known to cause several clinically overlapping X linked mental retardation conditions: X linked hydrocephalus (HSAS), MASA syndrome (mental retardation, aphasia, shuffling gait, adducted thumbs), spastic paraplegia type I (SPG1), and X linked agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC). In an analysis of a family with HSAS, we identified a C-->T transition (C924T) in exon 8 that was initially thought to have no effect on the protein sequence as the alteration affected the third base of a codon (G308G). Extensive analysis of the other 27 exons showed no other alteration. A review of the sequence surrounding position 924 indicated that the C-->T transition created a potential 5' splice site consensus sequence, which would result in an in frame deletion of 69 bp from exon 8 and 23 amino acids of the L1CAM protein. RT-PCR of the RNA from an affected male fetus and subsequent sequence analysis confirmed the use of the new splice site. This is the first report of a silent nucleotide substitution in L1CAM giving rise to an alteration at the protein level. Furthermore, it shows that as mutation analysis plays an ever more important role in human genetics, the identification of a synonymous base change should not be routinely discounted as a neutral polymorphism.

description: The data suggests that in children and adolescents, bipolar disorder (BD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be strongly correlated. Even though drugs for ADHD and BD are largely accepted, there is relatively little research on the management of comorbidity in children and adolescents, particularly in terms of safety. We provide a synthesis of these findings because one hasn’t been made yet. As a primary outcome, we wanted to determine whether stimulant or non-stimulant treatment of children and adolescents with ADHD and comorbid BD was effective. As a secondary outcome, we wanted to determine tolerability, especially the risk of mood switch. The findings of this systematic review suggest that methylphenidate, when used with a mood stabilizer, may be safe and not significantly increase the risk of a manic switch or psychotic symptoms when used to treat ADHD that co-occurs with a BD. In situations where stimulants are ineffective or have low tolerance, atomoxetine also seems to be a good alternative, and also in cases of co-morbid anxiety, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorders, ICT disorders, and substance use disorders. Additional research with a higher level of evidence is necessary to corroborate these preliminary findings.

description: The transport of energetic particles such as Cosmic Rays is governed by the properties of the plasma being traversed. While these properties are rather poorly known for galactic and interstellar plasmas due to the lack of in situ measurements, the heliospheric plasma environment has been probed by spacecraft for decades and provides a unique opportunity for testing transport theories. Of particular interest for the 3D heliospheric transport of energetic particles are structures such as corotating interaction regions (CIRs), which, due to strongly enhanced magnetic field strengths, turbulence, and associated shocks, can act as diffusion barriers on the one hand, but also as accelerators of low energy CRs on the other hand as well. In a two-fold series of papers we investigate these effects by modeling inner-heliospheric solar wind conditions with a numerical magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) setup (this paper), which will serve as an input to a transport code employing a stochastic differential equation (SDE) approach (second paper). In this first paper we present results from 3D MHD simulations with our code CRONOS: for validation purposes we use analytic boundary conditions and compare with similar work by Pizzo. For a more realistic modeling of solar wind conditions, boundary conditions derived from synoptic magnetograms via the Wang-Sheeley-Arge (WSA) model are utilized, where the potential field modeling is performed with a finite-difference approach (FDIPS) in contrast to the traditional spherical harmonics expansion often utilized in the WSA model. Our results are validated by comparing with multi-spacecraft data for ecliptical (STEREO-A/B) and out-of-ecliptic (Ulysses) regions.

description: We present results from the first Suzaku observation of the high-mass X-ray binary 4U 1538-522. The broad-band spectral coverage of Suzaku allows for a detailed spectral analysis, characterizing the cyclotron resonance scattering feature at $23.0 \pm 0.4$ keV and the iron K$α$ line at $6.426 \pm 0.008$ keV, as well as placing limits on the strengths of the iron K$β$ line and the iron K edge. We track the evolution of the spectral parameters both in time and in luminosity, notably finding a significant positive correlation between cyclotron line energy and luminosity. A dip and spike in the lightcurve is shown to be associated with an order-of-magnitude increase in column density along the line of sight, as well as significant variation in the underlying continuum, implying the accretion of a overdense region of a clumpy stellar wind. We also present a phase-resolved analysis, with most spectral parameters of interest showing significant variation with phase. Notably, both the cyclotron line energy and the iron K$α$ line intensity vary significantly with phase, with the iron line intensity significantly out-of-phase with the pulse profile. We discuss the implications of these findings in the context of recent work in the areas of accretion column physics and cyclotron resonance scattering feature formation.

description: We investigate the dynamics of a homogenous Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) following a sudden quench of the scattering length. Our focus is the time evolution of short-range correlations via the dynamical contact. We compute the dynamics using a combination of two- and many-body models, and we propose an intuitive connection between them that unifies their short-time, short-range predictions. Our two-body models are exactly solvable and, when properly calibrated, lead to analytic formulae for the contact dynamics. Immediately after the quench, the contact exhibits strong oscillations at the frequency of the two-body bound state. These oscillations are large in amplitude, and their time average is typically much larger than the unregularized Bogoliubov prediction. The condensate fraction shows similar oscillations, whose amplitude we are able to estimate. These results demonstrate the importance of including the bound state in descriptions of diabatically-quenched BEC experiments.

description: The purpose of this study was to identify the independent components of physical frailty that most influence disability indicators in institutionalized older women. A cross-sectional study with 319 participants (81.96+/-7.89 years old) was performed. Disability was assessed through dynamic and static balance tests, activities of daily life and falls risk screen. Fried physical frailty protocol was used to access physical frailty. The frail subgroup displayed the weakest results for all disability indicators (p < 0.05). Regression analysis showed that in the two models tested, low physical activity levels and slowness were the physical frailty independent components that better associated with the disability indicators. More studies with larger samples will help to better understand the independent relationship of each physical frailty component with disability outcomes and assist to design a co-adjuvant treatment to reverse physical frailty.

description: Children’s rights are addressed in various international instruments and in Brussels IIa Regulation (No 2201/2003). Having regard to EU competence in private international law issues related to family matters, Member States were requested to ratify the relevant Hague Conventions. In particular, the 1996 Convention on measures for the protection of children complements the Brussels IIa Regulation, by providing rules on the determination of the applicable law. Especially in cases of international child abduction, national authorities are called to adopt decisions by applying and coordinating all relevant provisions with the aim of ensuring the protection of children’s rights and their best interests. Against this background, the 2016 proposal for recast of the Brussels IIa Regulation suggested amendments in order to improve its effectiveness.
Identification of cathepsin C mutations in ethnically diverse Papillon-Lefevre syndrome patients
Creators: name: Hart, P S
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2000

description: INTRODUCTION—Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterised by palmoplantar keratoderma and severe, early onset periodontitis, which results from deficiency of cathepsin C activity secondary to mutations in the cathepsin C gene. To date, 13 different cathepsin C mutations have been reported in PLS patients, all of which are homozygous for a given mutation, reflecting consanguinity.AIM—To evaluate the generality of cathepsin C mutations in PLS, we studied an ethnically diverse group of 20 unrelated families.METHODS—Mutations were identified by direct automated sequencing of genomic DNA amplified for exonic regions and associated splice site junctions of the cathepsin C gene. Long range PCR was performed to determine the genomic structure of the cathepsin C gene.RESULTS—The cathepsin C gene spans over 46 kb, with six introns ranging in size from 1.6 to 22.4 kb. Eleven novel mutations and four previously reported mutations were identified in affected subjects from 14 families. Missense mutations were most common (9/15), followed by nonsense mutations (3/15), insertions (2/15), and deletions (1/15). Among these 14 probands, two were compound heterozygotes. Affected subjects with transgressions of the dermal lesions onto the knees or elbows or both had mutations in both the pro- and mature regions of the enzyme, although most were in the mature region.CONCLUSION—Mutations in the mature region of cathepsin C were more likely to be associated with the transgressions of the dermatological lesions, although the results were not statistically significant. A comprehensive list of all cathepsin C mutations described to date, representing 25 mutations from 32 families with PLS and related conditions, is also presented.Keywords: cathepsin C; genetics; severe early onset periodontitis; hyperkeratosis

The Cognitive-Integrative Framework and the Case of Nicole: Using Tools of Narrative Therapy and Pastoral Counseling Toward Effective Clinical Practice
Creators: name: Marshall, Shaun Douglas
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2003

description: Quite often in clinical social work, it can be difficult to find just the right theoretical framework for understanding and helping our clients. Most theoretical perspectives focus solely on the psychological processes of the individual, offering little foundation for addressing the person’s environment or accessing the client’s local knowledge. At these times, an integrated approach, respectful of the core values of social work, may be most useful. This paper provides a specific case-analysis from the Cognitive-Integrative (C-I) perspective. The treatment involved the integration of theories from Task-Centered Social Work Practice, Narrative Therapy and Spiritual Counseling with the goal of demonstrating how the incorporation of these theories, as guided by the C-I framework, can inform effective clinical social work practice.

description: We investigate the chiral magnetic order in free-standing planar 3$d$-5$d$ bi-atomic metallic chains (3$d$: Fe, Co; 5$d$: Ir, Pt, Au) using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. We found that the antisymmetric exchange interaction, commonly known as Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), contributes significantly to the energetics of the magnetic structure. We used the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method and performed self-consistent calculations of homogeneous spin spirals, calculating the DMI by treating the effect of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in the basis of the spin-spiral states in first-order perturbation theory. To gain insight into the DMI results of our ab initio calculations, we develop a minimal tight-binding model of three atoms and 4 orbitals that contains all essential features: the spin-canting between the magnetic $3d$ atoms, the spin-orbit interaction at the $5d$ atoms, and the structure inversion asymmetry facilitated by the triangular geometry. We found that spin-canting can lead to spin-orbit active eigenstates that split in energy due to the spin-orbit interaction at the $5d$ atom. We show that, the sign and strength of the hybridization, the bonding or antibonding character between $d$-orbitals of the magnetic and non-magnetic sites, the bandwidth and the energy difference between states occupied and unoccupied states of different spin projection determine the sign and strength of the DMI. The key features observed in the trimer model are also found in the first-principles results.

Hysteresis assisted narrowband resonances in a chain of nonlinear plasmonic arrays

description: The plasmonic structures exhibiting narrowband resonances (NBR) are of a great interest for various applications. We propose to use hysteresis behavior in a 1D system of nonlinear nanoresonators in order to achieve the NRB; the nonlinearity is provided by saturation of a two-level quantum system coupled with the nanoresonators (nanolaser/spaser configuration). Quantum Dots (QD) were assumed as quantum systems; their numerical parameters have been adopted for estimations. Role of the loss compensation on the quality of the NBR is shown for below (under compensation) and above threshold (generating spasers) operation modes. Amplitude and phase detection schemes of the prospective experimental realization are compared using the developed model. Possible sensor oriented applications of the proposed system are discussed.
title: The modelling of network polymers
Creators: name: R. Attenborough, F.
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2023

description: This thesis considers the modelling of two and three dimensional molecular networks with a view to being able to predict how the geometry of a network will affect the elastic constants and specifically the Poisson's ratios of the network. Materials with negative Poisson's ratios have much better engineering properties then those with positive Poisson's ratios. Theory states that a network polymer, with negative Poisson's ratios at a molecular level, would have much better properties than most materials with negative Poisson's ratios made to date. Molecular modelling has been used to examine the elastic constants of those two and three dimensional network polymers which are most likely to be synthesised in the near future. Such networks have been predicted to have either large positive or large negative Poisson's ratios depending on the molecular arrangement of the network. Poisson's ratios varying between 0.96 and -0.86 for the three dimensional cases and between -0.9 and 1.26 for the two dimensional cases have been calculated. Young's moduli in the order of 1 GPa have been observed for the three dimensional networks as compared to Young's moduli in the order of 20 - 400 kPa which have been experimentally measured for foam materials. Comparison with local density functional calculations for two 2-D networks with the molecular modelling have confirmed the negative Poisson's ratio in these networks and shown that it is not a function of the molecular modelling packages or force field used. The off-axis properties for both the two and three dimensional networks have been calculated. These show that whilst the networks with a positive Poisson's ratio in the principal axis directions always have a positive Poisson's ratio, those networks with a negative Poisson's ratio in the principal axis directions have off-axis Poisson's ratios that vary between large and positive and large and negative. In general the networks with positive Poisson's ratios are much more isotropic than those with negative Poisson's ratios. Analytical models which model the networks using simple beam theory have been produced for various two and three dimensional networks. These models can be used to predict the elastic constants of a network without the need to do time consumingmolecular modelling calculations to a first approximation. Comparison of the molecular models and analytical models has led to the development a library of force constants for two dimensional networks which can be used to more accurately predict the elastic constants of a network based on a knowledge of the geometry of the network and the constituent `sub-units' from which it is made
Whole genomewide linkage screen for neural tube defects reveals regions of interest on chromosomes 7 and 10
Creators: name: Rampersaud, E

description: Neural tube defects (NTDs) are the second most common birth defects (1 in 1000 live births) in the world. Periconceptional maternal folate supplementation reduces NTD risk by 50–70%; however, studies of folate related and other developmental genes in humans have failed to definitively identify a major causal gene for NTD. The aetiology of NTDs remains unknown and both genetic and environmental factors are implicated. We present findings from a microsatellite based screen of 44 multiplex pedigrees ascertained through the NTD Collaborative Group. For the linkage analysis, we defined our phenotype narrowly by considering individuals with a lumbosacral level myelomeningocele as affected, then we expanded the phenotype to include all types of NTDs. Two point parametric analyses were performed using VITESSE and HOMOG. Multipoint parametric and nonparametric analyses were performed using ALLEGRO. Initial results identified chromosomes 7 and 10, both with maximum parametric multipoint lod scores (Mlod) >2.0. Chromosome 7 produced the highest score in the 24 cM interval between D7S3056 and D7S3051 (parametric Mlod 2.45; nonparametric Mlod 1.89). Further investigation demonstrated that results on chromosome 7 were being primarily driven by a single large pedigree (parametric Mlod 2.40). When this family was removed from analysis, chromosome 10 was the most interesting region, with a peak Mlod of 2.25 at D10S1731. Based on mouse human synteny, two candidate genes (Meox2, Twist1) were identified on chromosome 7. A review of public databases revealed three biologically plausible candidates (FGFR2, GFRA1, Pax2) on chromosome 10. The results from this screen provide valuable positional data for prioritisation of candidate gene assessment in future studies of NTDs.
Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon in a dispersive approach

description: We present a new general dispersive formalism for evaluating the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. In the suggested approach, this correction is related to the imaginary part of the muon's electromagnetic vertex function. The latter may be directly related to measurable hadronic processes by means of unitarity and analyticity. As a test we apply the introduced formalism to the case of meson pole exchanges and find agreement with the direct two-loop calculation.
