description: AbstractBackground: Qatar has one of highest obesity prevalence inthe Arab world and globally. Unhealthy dietary habits and lack ofphysical activity are among the major factors that contribute toobesity epidemic.Objectives: To examine the influence of physical activity anddietary factors related to the obesity prevalence among adult Qatarinationals.Methods: Secondary data analysis of 2,496 Qatari adults (age 18-64) from WHO Qatar national STEP wise survey 2012 was executed.Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was carried outto assess the role of physical activity, dietary characteristics andrelated covariates in obesity causation.Results: The predominant form of physical activity was walking(76.4% of males versus 55.9% in females) followed by participatingin intense sports in males and moderate physical activity in females.Consumption of sweet beverages was associated with obesity (OR= 1.06, 95% CI = 1.02–1.10, P < 0.01). No significant associationwas determined between obesity versus levels of consumptionof fruits, vegetables, fast food, and food not prepared at home.Physical activity was significantly associated with a reduction incentral obesity (OR = 0.72, CI = 0.57-0.90, P-value = 0.006) andwith slight reduction in generalized obesity rates; however, thiseffect was not statistically significant (OR = 0.95, CI = 0.79-1.14,P-value = 0.58).Conclusion: The findings from this study might assist in thedevelopment of evidence-based strategies to reduce and preventobesity as well as obesity-related morbidity and mortality. Thecontinued and effective use of multidimensional approaches will bebeneficial in preventing disease and reducing its burden in Qatar.KeywordsObesity, Physical activity, Diet, Sweet beverages, Qatari nationals,STEP wise, Behavioral factors

description: AbstractThe State of Texas is not smoke-free, leaving Texas municipalities and worksites to decide their smoke-free ordinances and policies. The majority of worksites in McLennan County are not regulated by comprehensive municipal smoke-free ordinances. Large employers (N=118) in McLennan County were sent a survey electronically, by mail, and/or by phone interview to assess worksite policies and measures to protect against smoke and smokeless tobacco exposures. The survey was distributed and the resulting data was analyzed and reported. A response rate of 64% (n=75) was achieved across worksites. Fifty-eight (77.3%) worksites reported having a tobacco use policy with 14 (24.1%) reporting a comprehensive tobacco-free campus policy. Among industries with more than 4 worksites surveyed, education (84.6%), healthcare (87.5%) and non-profi t (85.7%) had the highest percentage of existing tobacco-free policy. A minority, 13 (22.4%) worksites, reported that their tobacco-free policy is not enforced. A total of 56 (74.6%) worksites reported not offering tobacco cessation support to their employees. This survey led to a better understanding of the tobacco and secondhand smoke protection among large employers in McLennan County. Ultimately, with a 100% tobacco-free campus being the highest level of protection, 61 (81.3%) of large employers surveyed in McLennan County have the ability to reduce the risk of exposure to tobacco and secondhand smoke through complete tobacco protection policy integration.

description: As a major source region of the hydroxyl radical OH, the Tropics largely control the oxidation capacity of the atmosphere on a global scale. However, emissions of hydrocarbons from the tropical rainforest that react rapidly with OH can potentially deplete the amount of OH and thereby reduce the oxidation capacity. The airborne GABRIEL field campaign in equatorial South America (Suriname) in October 2005 investigated the influence of the tropical rainforest on the HOx budget (HOx = OH + HO2). The first observations of OH and HO2 over a tropical rainforest are compared to steady state concentrations calculated with the atmospheric chemistry box model MECCA. The important precursors and sinks for HOx chemistry, measured during the campaign, are used as constraining parameters for the simulation of OH and HO2. Significant underestimations of HOx are found by the model over land during the afternoon, with mean ratios of observation to model of 12.2 ± 3.5 and 4.1 ± 1.4 for OH and HO2, respectively. The discrepancy between measurements and simulation results is correlated to the abundance of isoprene. While for low isoprene mixing ratios (above ocean or at altitudes >3 km), observation and simulation agree fairly well, for mixing ratios >200 pptV (<3 km over the rainforest) the model tends to underestimate the HOx observations as a function of isoprene.

Box model simulations have been performed with the condensed chemical mechanism of MECCA and with the detailed isoprene reaction scheme of MCM, resulting in similar results for HOx concentrations. Simulations with constrained HO2 concentrations show that the conversion from HO2 to OH in the model is too low. However, by neglecting the isoprene chemistry in the model, observations and simulations agree much better. An OH source similar to the strength of the OH sink via isoprene chemistry is needed in the model to resolve the discrepancy. A possible explanation is that the oxidation of isoprene by OH not only dominates the removal of OH but also produces it in a similar amount. Several additional reactions which directly produce OH have been implemented into the box model, suggesting that upper limits in producing OH are still not able to reproduce the observations (improvement by factors of ≈2.4 and ≈2 for OH and HO2, respectively). We determine that OH has to be recycled to 94% instead of the simulated 38% to match the observations, which is most likely to happen in the isoprene degradation process, otherwise additional sources are required.

description: Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) is a biodegradable hydrophobic polyester that has been widely used in medical devices, tissue engineering and nanoparticle-based drug delivery. Coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) has been employed to study and gain insights into the conformational, structural and self-assembly behaviour of polymers, lipids and amphiphilic macromolecules. In this work, we developed a model for PCL within the framework of the MARTINI coarse-grained force field. The non-bonded interactions were based on the existing MARTINI bead types, while the bonded interactions were mapped onto a PCL rendition obtained from atomistic simulations. The model accurately reproduces the structural and dynamic properties of the PCL homopolymer and shows very reasonable temperature and solvent transferability. We also studied self-assembly of MePEG-b-PCL linear diblock copolymers using an existing MARTINI model for MePEG (Methoxy Polyethylene glycol), by analysing the critical micelle concentration (CMC), as well as the shape, size and morphology of the nano-polymeric micelles. We obtained excellent agreement of the CMC, while the size was under-predicted compared to experimental data. This robust model paves the way for CGMD modelling of PCL and serves as a starting point for future designs of PCL-related polymeric systems .

description: Purpose: To develop the pediatric Automatic Phonological Analysis Tools (APAT) and to estimate inter and intrajudge reliability, content validity, and concurrent validity. Method: The APAT were constructed using Excel spreadsheets with formulas. The tools were presented to an expert panel for content validation. The corpus used in the Portuguese standardized test Teste Fonético-Fonológico – ALPE produced by 24 children with phonological delay or phonological disorder was recorded, transcribed, and then inserted into the APAT. Reliability and validity of APAT were analyzed. Results: The APAT present strong inter- and intrajudge reliability (>97%). The content validity was also analyzed (ICC = 0.71), and concurrent validity revealed strong correlations between computerized and manual (traditional) methods. Conclusions: The development of these tools contributes to fill existing gaps in clinical practice and research, since previously there were no valid and reliable tools/instruments for automatic phonological analysis, which allowed the analysis of different corpora.

description: Labour mobility and local employment: building a local employment base from labour mobility? Regional Studies. Do labour inflows contribute to job opportunities for local residents? This question is analysed based on a three-step instrumental variables (IV) estimation procedure including two-way fixed effects to control for unobserved heterogeneity by using unique panel data for the period 2006–11 in Denmark. The results show that labour inflows are crucial for employment opportunities in peripheral areas, but appear to have no effects closer to urban centres. Furthermore, the findings highlight the importance of inflows of specific skills and cross-sectoral dependencies in skill dynamics. This stresses the importance of considering policies promoting mobility to ensure the employment basis in peripheral areas.

description: Density functional methods were used to predict the antioxidative efficiency of thirteen 4-benzylidenamino-4, 5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives in the gas phase and in the solution phase (water and benzene). Optimized geometries of molecules and reaction thermodynamic energies (enthalpies and reaction-free energies) of three main antioxidant mechanisms (hydrogen atom transfer, single electron transfer-proton transfer, and sequential proton loss electron transfer) were studied at B3LYP/6-31G (d,p) level. Solvent contributions to thermodynamic energies were computed employing integral equation formalism integral equation formalism polarized continuum model method. Obtained results revealed that the three main working mechanisms were endothermic, but not spontaneous especially in the gas phase. We found that the single electron transfer process from the anionic form was more preferable than that from the neutral form in the gas phase. The comparison of the ionization potentials of 4-benzylidenamino-4, 5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivatives to those of classical antioxidants (gallic acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, and ascorbic acid) indicated that the electron transfer mechanism was more predominant in the thirteen 4-benzylidenamino-4, 5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one derivative compounds. Thermodynamically, single electron transfer process from the anionic form was the most preferable mechanism in the gas phase. Solvent effect drastically modified thermodynamic energies of mechanisms. The proton transfer process was the thermodynamically favored mechanism as compared to other mechanisms in both solvents. It is worth mentioning that all the mechanisms were found not to be spontaneous in the solution phase except the proton transfer process.

Optimized geometries of molecules and reaction thermodynamic energies (enthalpies and reaction free energies) of three main antioxidant mechanisms (HAT: hydrogen atom transfer, SET-PT: single electron transfer-proton transfer and SPLET: sequential proton loss electron transfer) were studied at B3LYP/6-31G (d,p) level.

Obtained results revealed that the three main working mechanisms were endothermic, but not spontaneous especially in gas-phase. We found that the single electron transfer process from the anionic form was more preferable than that from the neutral form in gas phase. The comparison of the IPs of BDHTDs to those of classical antioxidants (gallic acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid and ascorbic acid) indicated that the ET mechanism was more predominant in the thirteen BDHTD compounds. Thermodynamically, single electron transfer (SET) process from the anionic form was the most preferable mechanism in gas phase.

description:
Our group recently reported that chymase, a serine protease synthetized and released by mast cells, plays a pivotal role in thrombi stabilization in murine deep vein thrombosis (DVT) models, by interfering with the fibrinolytic properties of endogenous plasmin within thrombi. However, the impact of mast cell-derived chymase on endogenous plasmin activity in human blood clots has yet to be explored. The antifibrinolytic properties of human recombinant chymase (rCMA-1) were investigated using an in vitro thrombolysis assay based on halo-shaped human blood clots. In addition, a fluorogenic assay was used to detect chymase activity in human thromboembolic biopsies. In both assays, the activity of human chymase was validated using a specific chymase inhibitor, fulacimstat (BAY 1142524). Although rapidly neutralized in plasma, rCMA-1 remains active within the local microenvironment of a blood clot, inducing resistance to endogenous plasmin-mediated fibrinolysis in the presence of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). This leads to a concentration-dependent decrease in clot lysis by rCMA-1. The plasmin-inactivating properties of rCMA-1 were inhibited by fulacimstat, resulting in an accelerated clot dissolution. The pro-fibrinolytic effects of fulacimstat in human blood clots were reversed by a plasminogen/plasmin inhibitor, BAY 1214237. Finally, fulacimstat-sensitive chymase activity was identified in thrombi collected from thrombectomy patients, supporting the potential role of the mast cell-derived serine protease in human blood clot stabilization under pathological conditions. These in vitro experiments with human whole blood suggest that mast cell-derived chymase impairs blood clot resolution by interfering with the fibrinolytic activity of endogenous intra-clot plasmin. Our findings provide evidence that recombinant mast cell chymase interferes with endogenous plasmin activity in human whole blood clots in vitro and support the potential of chymase inhibitors, such as fulacimstat, as fibrinolytic agents for thrombotic and thromboembolic disorders.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Channel 4's Time Team at Codnor Castle, Derbyshire, a Scheduled Monument. The fieldwork comprised geophysical survey, earthwork survey and six evaluation trenches.\r\nThe results of the geophysical survey were inconclusive, mostly due to the later industrial use of the site; however, the earthwork survey identified three phases of construction and expansion of the castle complex. Six evaluation trenches were excavated: three in the lower court to examine the approaches to the gatehouse, and three in the upper court to explore the rear of the extant gatehouse and to trace the curtain wall.\r\nThe evaluation has demonstrated the extent, character and condition of the castle and has shown that, despite the later industrial use, substantial and important medieval remains survive below ground. Analysis of the finds suggests that the masonry castle was probably established in the early 13th century and continued in use until the 16th or early 17th century.

description: During the 2004 excavation season at the Old Vicarage, Mellor, Stockport, a remarkable example of an Early Bronze Age flint dagger was found. Mellor is a multi-phase site, and it is possible that the dagger has been disturbed from its original context. The dagger is described in some detail, and the occurrence of flint daggers in the British archaeological record discussed. It appears that Early Bronze Age communities living along the western side of the Pennine uplands acquired flint daggers, such as the one at Mellor, through exchange networks. It is suggested that further work should aim to develop our understanding of the extent to which Early Bronze Age communities at the interface of the lowlands and the Pennine uplands participated in these exchange networks.

description: Background: The Relational and Item-Specific Encoding task (RISE) measures episodic memory subcomponents, including item-specific and relational encoding of to-be-remembered stimuli. These memory components are neurobiologically relevant because they may engage distinct subregions of the medial temporal lobe, perirhinal and entorhinal cortices, parahippocampus, and hippocampus. Methods: A total of 125 participants, including 84 healthy controls (HC), 22 mild cognitive impairment-diagnosed and 19 Alzheimer disease (AD)-diagnosed participants, were administered the RISE and neuropsychological measures. Stepwise linear regressions assessed prediction of functional ability from RISE d′ measures. ANOVAs and logistic regressions determined the ability of the RISE to discriminate between the diagnostic groups. In addition, the psychometric properties of the RISE were examined. Results:RISE measures predicted diagnosis with pseudo R2 values in the range of 0.25-0.30. Receiver operating characteristic curves demonstrated adequate sensitivity and specificity with areas under the curve in the range of 0.78-0.98. Memory following relational encoding was a significant predictor of everyday functional competence. The RISE had acceptable psychometric properties, with the exception of floor effects in the AD group. Conclusion: The RISE measures significantly predicted diagnosis and predicted everyday functional competence. The RISE offers unique advantages in the assessment of HC and individuals with preclinical AD.

description: Ice is commonly used in biology experiments to cool samples in between sample manipulations. But, biological samples are typically low volume and contained in microtubes with volumes of 2 mL or lower, with tubes for polymerase chain reaction measuring in the microliters range. Hence, these microtubes are usually stuck in ice, but with progressive melting of ice, the microtubes either lose contact with ice and starts to heat up (which may result in sample degradation and inconsistent measurements for the entire set) or they topple over and increase the chances of sample contamination. Instruments’ manufacturers do provide, as gifts, free perforated foam to researchers to help them organize microtubes in the water bath. However, these perforated foams could also be used as microtube holders for organizing microtubes on ice with several distinct advantages: (i) reusable and ease of use, (ii) allowing better organization of transparent microtubes in a box of transparent ice cubes, and (iii) enable better contact between ice cubes and microtubes over a long period of sample preparation because the foam rests on and moves downwards with the melting ice. Besides foam, similar microtube holders could also be made by researchers using a microtube of specific size as a mold to “squeeze” microtube holes in cheap and easily available styrofoam. In contrast to prefabricated perforated foam, these do it yourself microtube holders allow bespoke microtube arrangement pattern in sync with individual researchers’ preferences for sample organization and work efficiency. To further guard against misidentification of sample tubes, the styrofoam or perforated foam chosen should also be colored. In summary, microtube holders made from styrofoam offer important advantages over conventional ad hoc placement of individual microtubes in ice; chief amongst which are assurance of good sample organization and easy identifiability of specific microtube in an ice box, as well as good thermal contact between melting ice cubes and samples requiring cooling. Ease of identifying a specific microtube is critical as transparent microtubes could be easily misidentified in a box of ice, while good thermal contact ensures cooling and less sample degradation.

description: Pottery production at Ticknall, South Derbyshire, took place between the 15th and 19th centuries. Despite a wealth of evidence pertaining to the existence of production sites in the village, only in 2006 was the first kiln excavated. Two trenches were excavated, and trench 1 yielded about 4000 vessels. Dating evidence was lacking, but Dr Alan Vince conducted chemical analysis on the Midlands Purple ware and Cistercian ware. A full account of the Church Lane excavation is forthcoming (Boyle and Rowlandson).

description: The medieval stone buildings, 7-9 Abbey Lane, identified from documentary evidence as a former barn and the Porter's Lodge of the Augustinian abbey of St Mary at Darley, are shown on the western boundary of the orchard surrounding William Woolley's house on the survey map of his estate in 1708. The only other medieval building (now the Abbey pub) standing in Darley Abbey is shown on the eastern boundary, giving rise to the possibility that the orchard boundaries also define those of the long lost Abbey precinct. The 1708 boundaries have been transposed on to a 1956 OS map and possible sites for the Abbey church and cloisters are discussed.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Nine Ladies, Stanton Moor: Surface survey and exploratory excavations in response to erosion

description: It has long been recognized that, in such a place as the gritstone plateau of Stanton Moor, no archaeological monument can be considered entirely safe from damage, for, as Pitt-Rivers remarked of Nine Ladies in 1883, 'on a lonely moor remote from habitation no ... protection would suffice if visitors were determined to do damage, in spite of the penalties prescribed'. More than a century on, a programme of repeated, intensive, metrical survey of progressive erosion within and around this much-visited and much-loved, but much-abused, stone-circle was to demonstrate a significant loss from certain patches of the ground-surface, as quantified over the period 1988-1997. This in turn led to further survey and eventually to selective excavations undertaken in 2000. The principal purpose of excavating within the stone-circle and alongside its allegedly related outlier, the King Stone, was to assess the extent to which modern disturbance is affecting surviving anthropogenic deposits of ancient origin. Subsequent repairs to the monument cannot be regarded as a final solution to its problems, and it seems that continued vigilance through active management will ever be necessary.

description: Efficiently curating metadata with controlled terminology is a critical yet time-consuming task in social science data management and archiving. Data depositors often provide insufficient metadata, compelling data repository staff to extensively enhance the metadata. This process traditionally involves navigating a wide array of controlled terms, a task demanding substantial time and expertise, sometimes necessitating the creation of new terms.Addressing these challenges, we introduce an innovative model employing Generative AI technology (ChatGPT). This tool is engineered to significantly diminish the time required for metadata curation for data repository staff while enhancing the accuracy of term matching. It achieves this by rapidly analyzing text and extracting pertinent keywords from established thesauri, including the ICPSR Subject Thesaurus, the European Language Social Science Thesaurus (ELSST), and Library of Congress Subject Headings (LC SH), along with ChatGPT's intelligent recommendations. This approach not only expedites the curation process but also ensures heightened precision and recall in the results.

description: This research aims to evaluate some chemical parameters of surface sediments of coastal La Restinga lagoon, located in Margarita Island, Nueva Esparta state, Venezuela. Using classical methodology for geochemical, grain size and texture sediment percentage of organic carbon and total organic matter, and calcium carbonate was analyzed. Additionally, the concentrations of total nitrogen, total phosphorus and aliphatic hydrocarbons were determined. The results showed that in the lagoon La Restinga prevailing sedimentary sandy texture, above the sandy-loam and sandy-clay. The percentages of total organic carbon, total organic matter and calcium carbonate respectively varied as follows: 1.70-25.53%, 11.10-82.10% and 2.93-44.01%. Concentrations of 282.10-1571.80 mg kg-1 in total nitrogen, 419.50-2033.70 mg kg-1 in total phosphorus and 5.65-63.18 mg kg-1 for aliphatic hydrocarbons were determined. The total organic matter in the lagoon La Restinga is distributed based on the fine particles of sediment and the presence of mangroves, in turn calcium carbonate, was associated mainly to contributions from organisms with calcareous shell. The low values of the ratio NT/PT (under 5) suggest limiting the nitrogen in the ecosystem, and natural or anthropogenic enrichment of phosphorus in the sediment. The levels of certain aliphatic hydrocarbons, are not considered as contaminants levels as established by CARIPOL (1980), except in the eastern end of the main body of the lake. According to the points made in this study, we can infer that the Restinga Lagoon symptoms of degradation product of human intervention in the ecosystem.

description: This paper deals with an application of ordinary kriging (OK) for spatial interpolation of data in a completely automatic (one-click mapping) manner. The important set of kriging parameters (semivariogram model, search strategy, etc.) were tuned based on the prior characteristics of the phenomenon considered. The prior information provided as 10 sets of monitoring observations taken at different days was used to analyse and model the spatial correlation of the phenomenon. Furthermore, the prior information was expected to be consistent within a rather long time range and therefore assumed to reflect the structure of the contamination pattern at any given day. The approach applied here gave satisfactory results for both routine and emergency data sets. The benefits and drawbacks of the kriging model were well illustrated in the study. Ordinary kriging can be considered as a real candidate for the implementation in a decision support system.
