Cosmarium trinodulum var. pilgeri schmidle (1901:49)

description: Cosmarium trinodulum var. pilgeri Schmidle (1901:49) (Figs 8, 55–59)
 Cell dimensions: 33–37 μm long, 30–35.5 μm wide, isthmus 10–13 μm wide.
 Material examined:— BRAZIL. Pantanal dos Marimbus, Andaraí, Bahia State. Sample: HUEFS 241798.
 Habitat: —This variety was found associated with periphyton of Utricularia foliosa. EC 0.12 mS cm-1, DO 7.5 mg L- 1, pH 5.9, TDS 0.05, T 27.6 ºC.
 Note:— This variety was described by Schmidle (1901) based on a sample gathered in a brook in the headwaters of the Xingu River, Brazilian Central-West. Over 100 years later, this rare variety, only known till now from its type locality, is being reported again to Brazilian territory, but now to Northeastern Region. It is interesting to note that both samples (from Mato Grosso and Bahia) were collected from similar latitude strips (about 10– 13º south of the Equator).
 The var. pilgeri differs from the nominate variety in having relatively shorter and wider cells, and 3–6 granules around a central granule with a circular pattern. This ornamentation pattern resembles the famous Belgian monument “Atomium”.
 Overall, the three Brazilian taxa of Cosmarium trinodulum (var. trinodulum, var. brasiliense, var. pilgeri) found in the Marimbus are remarkable for polymorphism. However, they have some consistent morphological features, mainly in the granules number and arrangement, which contribute to keep yet them as distinct taxonomic entities: (1) nominate variety generally has more than 13 interconnected granules per semicell, spatially arranged over most part of the semicell; (2) var. brasiliense generally has from 5 up to 13 granules arranged in 1–3 arched series per semicell; (3) var. pilgeri has 3 up to 7 interconnected granules per semicell, arranged in the median or subapical region.
 Lastly, the diversity of granulated specimens of Cosmarium from Marimbus is interesting. There are some other similar and non-yet identified taxa in the analyzed samples, which they need further studies to verify whether they are morphological variations of some known species or if they are new to science.

description: In this paper we present thoughtful comments on the paper `Bessel beams and signal propagation' showing that the main claims of that paper are wrong. Moreover, we take the opportunity to show the non trivial and indeed surprising result that a scalar pulse (i.e., a wave train of compact support in the time domain) that is solution of the homogeneous wave equation (vector ($\vec{E},\vec{B}$) pulse that is solution of Maxwell equations) is such that its {\em wave front} in some cases does travel with speed {\em greater} than $c$, the speed of light . In order for a pulse to posses a front that travels with speed $c$, an additional condition must be satisfied, namely the pulse must have finite energy. When this condition is fulfilled the pulse still can show peaks propagating with superluminal (or subluminal) velocities, but now its wave front travels at speed $c$. These results are important because they explain several experimental results obtained in recent experiments, where superluminal velocities have been observed, without implying in any breakdown of the Principle of Relativity.

title: Understanding and Treating the Consequences of Childhood Sexual Abuse: A Clinical Trial
Creators: name: Pinter-Thom, Kristy Lea
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Childhood sexual abuse
subject: Post traumatic stress disorder

description: Child sexual abuse (CSA) is associated with devastating short- and long-term consequences for the individual victims and their families, with significant costs to society also documented. Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been found to be one of the most significant clinical consequences of CSA, with symptoms persisting into adulthood, especially if left untreated. Treatment outcome studies have examined the efficacy of individual trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) treatment models as a means of alleviating these symptoms in children. However, little research exists in testing the efficacy of group treatment programs, or the specific cognitive processes that maintain PTSD symptoms in these children. The current research involved 56 children aged 8 to 12 years and their carers. Each child had experienced substantiated sexual abuse. The diagnostic criteria for PTSD and other psychopathologies associated with CSA were assessed by diagnostic clinical interview (the Anxiety Disorder Interview Schedule). This data were complemented by carer reports of their own functioning and the child’s symptoms as well as the child reports of their own functioning on psychometric measures. Two studies were conducted using these children. In Study 1, maladaptive interpretative biases in children with PTSD were examined, and in Study 2, the efficacies of two CBT group programs were evaluated. In Study 1, seven ambiguous scenarios describing different social, physical and environmental (i.e., events at school or home) situations were presented to children with PTSD (N = 26) and a non-clinical control group (N= 20). The group with PTSD reported greater threat bias and avoidance (event was unlikely to occur again) when compared to the non-clinical control group. These responses occurred in situations of perceived social or physical threat, but not in the home or school.

description: A simple and intuitive geometical method to analyze Fresnel formulas is presented. It applies to transparent media and is valid for perpendicular and parallel polarizations. The approach gives a graphical characterization particularly simple of the critical and Brewster angles. It also provides an interpretation of the relation between the reflection coefficients for both basic polarizations as a symmetry in the plane.

description: This paper deals with the theoretical foundation of effective two-body forces for the Generator Coordinate Method (GCM) and the projected mean-field method. The first aim of this paper is to reduce into various local-densities the in-medium content of a generalized $G$ matrix removing the hard core problem in this extended context. Then, we consider the possible renormalization of multi-body forces through a density-dependent two-body interaction in the context of configuration mixing calculations. A density dependence of the form $ρ^σ$, as used in Skyrme and Gogny forces, is successfully interpreted as doing so when the mixed density is used. Finally, we propose a simple extension of the Skyrme force dedicated to the calculation of matrix elements between non-orthogonal product states, which are needed to evaluate the correlated energy.

description: Antiferromagnetic materials are of great interest for spintronics. Here we present a comprehensive study of the growth, structural characterization, and resulting magnetic properties of thin films of the non-collinear antiferromagnet Mn$_{3}$Ir. Using epitaxial engineering on MgO (001) and Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ (0001) single crystal substrates, we control the growth of cubic $γ$-Mn$_{3}$Ir in both (001) and (111) crystal orientations, and discuss the optimization of growth conditions to achieve high-quality crystal structures with low surface roughness. Exchange bias is studied in bilayers, with exchange bias fields as large as -29 mT (equivalent to a unidirectional anisotropy constant of 11.5 nJ cm$^{-2}$) measured in Mn$_{3}$Ir (111) / permalloy heterostructures at room temperature. In addition, a distinct dependence of blocking temperature on in-plane crystallographic direction in Mn$_{3}$Ir (001) / Py bilayers is observed. These findings are discussed in the context of chiral antiferromagnetic domain structures, and will inform progress towards topological antiferromagnetic spintronic devices.

title: Leadership strategies in conducting rehearsals within training orchestra contexts
Creators: name: Chan, Tze Law
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Rehearsal strategy
subject: Orchestra

description: The need for leadership training in the practice of conducting deserves further discussion, both in relation to conductors’ perception of their own roles as well as the needs of the musicians in their orchestras. In the training of young conductors and the literature pertaining to it, emphasis is usually placed on baton technique, musicianship, repertoire and historical awareness while motivational and leadership skills are generally left to be acquired from on the job training. This research proposes that such skills are too central to the role of a successful conductor to be overlooked. Since orchestras are made up of people, people management skills can be valuable in helping the conductor gain maximum support from the musicians. This research explores if existing modern leadership and people management strategies from other domains may be relatable or translatable to the practice of conducting and, if so, how they might be incorporated into a conductor’s skillset, particularly in the context of training orchestras. This thesis reports on two related research projects. The first project trials Pragmatic Inquiry conducted during the concert preparation of Takemitsu’s Tree Line with a New Music ensemble to determine its applicability to help conductors formulate rehearsal strategy. The second project examines the rehearsal of Elgar’s First Symphony with a conservatorium orchestra in relation to Robert Katz’s three skills of an effective administrator, to examine how technical, human and conceptual skills are employed by a conductor in practice.

description: Modification of carbohydrates and their analogs is hindered due to multi-step synthetic methodologies involving selective protection and deprotection of multiple hydroxyl groups present in the molecule. A highly efficient route for the synthesis of 1-phenyl-2-(β-D-glycopyranosyl)ethenes has been developed from native sugars, which neither requires protection/deprotection of the hydroxyl groups nor use of any metal/metal ions. The key step of the developed methodology is the use of Bamford-Stevens reaction which led to the formation of the desired compounds in moderate to high yields in three steps only.
The Distribution of Thermal Pressures in the Interstellar Medium from a Survey of C I Fine-Structure Excitation

description: We used the smallest entrance aperture (0.03 arc-sec wide slit) and highest resolution echelle gratings (E140H and E230H) of STIS on HST to record the interstellar absorption features for 10 different multiplets of neutral carbon at a wavelength resolving power of 200,000 in the UV spectra of 21 early-type stars. We measured the amount of C I in each of its three fine-structure levels, so that we could determine nT of the absorbing gas and how much it varies in different regions. To obtain internally consistent results for all multiplets, we had to modify the transition f-values so that generally weak transitions were stronger than their published values. The fine-structure populations indicate that the median thermal pressure for our entire sample is p/k=2240 cm^-3 K, or slightly higher for temperatures that differ appreciably from 40 K. About 15% of the gas moving at peculiar velocities shows p/k > 10^4 cm^-3 K, and this fraction drops to 1.5% for quiescent gas. Often, there are small amounts of gas at p/k > 10^5 cm^-3 K. These ubiquitous wisps of high pressure material probably arise from small-scale density enhancements created by converging flows in a turbulent medium. The C I excitations indicate a barytropic index gamma_eff > 0.90 when the gas is compressed, which is larger than the value 0.72 expected for material in thermal equilibrium. This indicates that the regions have a dimension r < 0.01 pc which allows them to compress very quickly and nearly adiabatically. Appendices of this paper present evidence that STIS can indeed achieve R = 200,000, and that telluric oxygen absorption lines are broadened by macroscopic motions.

description: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), derived from normal oral epithelium transformation, remains a major public health problem world-wide. The prognosis of OSCCs that occur on lips is good, while other sites of oral mucosa where OSCC appears are more progressive, invasive and metastatic. A small subset of cells within a malignant neoplasm, named cancer stem cells (CSCs) or tumour initiating cells are thought to be capable of initiating the neoplasm itself, and of driving its growth and recurrance after treatment. The precise origin of CSCs is an ambiguous issue at present. The first proposal of the origin of CSCs is that CSCs develop from tumour cells themselves via cellular dedifferentiation. The secondary hypothesis for the origin of CSCs proposes that CSCs are the product of malignant transformation of adult stem cells. In this Ph.D thesis, we tried to demonstrate that CSCs in OSCC may be produced from those pathways.

description: The SPring-8 control system provides data acquisition software called Poller/Collector for periodic data taking. Its polling scheme does not support taking data synchronized with an event, and simultaneity in the data from the different VME systems is not guaranteed. Recently, requirement for fast and event-driven data acquisition has increased, and the synchronization of a set of data from the different VME systems is requested. We added new data-taking software to the standard framework with a shared memory network. We designed the software on the VME by updating the original framework that was already used for feedback control. The data filling process on a PC stores sets of the synchronized data on a shared memory board to the database. The shared memory boards provide 250Mbit/s transmission rate and are linked with optical fiber cables. We will install the system to the linac beam position monitors data acquisition as the first application.

description: Essential hypertension is a leading global public health issue, billions of people suffered from it every year. Recently, multiple evidence suggests that DNA methylation play an important role in regulating blood pressure. Here, we tested the risk for essential hypertension conferred by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1). Three loci (rs2228611, rs2228612, and rs16999593) were selected to be analyzed in 3410 cases and 1307 normal controls in southern Chinese aged 60 or above. No significant association with essential hypertension was observed for rs2228612 and rs16999593. A higher risk of essential hypertension was found in the minor A allele of rs2228611 in the codominant and recessive model (P < 0.05). After stratified by sex, this association was found in male but not female. Furthermore, this difference was abolished after BMI adjustment in the whole population and reduced in male. In addition, the mutation rate of rs2228611 was higher in the obesity group compared with the normal weight group of male. Intriguingly, rs2228611 was also a risk factor of essential hypertension in normal weight male. These findings indicated that rs2228611 might contribute to male hypertension via BMI-dependent mechanisms in obesity male and BMI-independent mechanisms in normal weight male.

description: The semitendinosus, one of the hamstring muscles, is characterized by a tendinous inscription separating the muscle into two distinct neuromuscular compartments. Additionally, its long distal tendon is prime autologous graft tissue for surgical reconstructions, such as anterior cruciate ligament surgery. However, the structure and function of semitendinosus compartments has not been well-documented in vivo, and how compartment morphology may potentially change after tendon harvesting remains unknown. In this thesis, the structure and function of the semitendinosus was examined using a variety of medical imaging techniques and musculoskeletal modelling.[...] Overall, studies conducted for this thesis indicated that assessments of the hamstrings, particularly the semitendinosus after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, have much room for improvement. Namely, ultrasonographic methods provide a more accessible manner for assessing hamstring function, more care needs to be taken when recording surface electromyograms from semitendinosus, functional assessments of individuals recovering from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction must include isometric tests at 90° of knee flexion, and researchers need to incorporate more appropriate passive length-tension curves in musculoskeletal models. Moreover, the semitendinosus is comprised of two distinct neuromuscular compartments that differ in proximodistal length, but not radial size. This atypical structure for an extremity muscle should be accounted for in future investigations, as there may be crucial functional relevance for this split design. The cross-sectional nature of studies and the lack of measurement of the contractile component of semitendinosus compartments during both passive and active tasks precludes concrete conclusions on the structure, function, and adaptations to the two compartments in healthy and anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed legs. Nonetheless, the results obtained in this thesis have direct clinical benefit and generate hypotheses and ideas for future investigations to better uncover the origin and functional relevance of the unique design of the semitendinosus muscle.
Astrophysical reaction rate for $α(αn,γ)$$^{9}$Be by photodisintegration

description: We study the astrophysical reaction rate for the formation of $^{9}$Be through the three body reaction $α(αn,γ)$. This reaction is one of the key reactions which could bridge the mass gap at A = 8 nuclear systems to produce intermediate-to-heavy mass elements in alpha- and neutron-rich environments such as r-process nucleosynthesis in supernova explosions, s-process nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, and primordial nucleosynthesis in baryon inhomogeneous cosmological models. To calculate the thermonuclear reaction rate in a wide range of temperatures, we numerically integrate the thermal average of cross sections assuming a two-steps formation through a metastable $^{8}$Be. Off-resonant and on-resonant contributions from the ground state in $^{8}$Be are taken into account. As input cross section, we adopt the latest experimental data by photodisintegration of $^{9}$Be with laser-electron photon beams, which covers all relevant resonances in $^{9}$Be. We provide the reaction rate for $α(αn,γ)^{9}$Be in the temperature range from T$_{9}$=10$^{-3}$ to T$_{9}$=10$^{1}$ both in the tabular form and in the analytical form. The calculated reaction rate is compared with the reaction rates of the CF88 and the NACRE compilations. The CF88 rate is valid at $T_{9} > 0.028$ due to lack of the off-resonant contribution. The CF88 rate differs from the present rate by a factor of two in a temperature range $T_{9} \geq 0.1$. The NACRE rate, which adopted different sources of experimental information on resonance states in $^{9}$Be, is 4--12 times larger than the present rate at $T_{9} \leq 0.028$, but is consistent with the present rate to within $\pm 20 %$ at $T_{9} \geq 0.1$.

description: Following the explosion of interest in quantum information processing the field has now reached the point where a quantum memory is becoming a real necessity for further improvements. A quantum memory is fundamentally different from a classical memory due to the "Superposition" principle. Unlike classical information no measurement can be made on the quantum information when it is to be stored. Quantum information is also difficult to store due to its fragile nature and the need to isolate it from the surrounding environment. This thesis describes work that was carried out both to investigate and demonstrate the utility of rare earth ion dopants for quantum memories. Rare earth ion dopants are obvious choices for a quantum memory. Long coherence times in both the optical and hyperfine levels have been observed as well as optical manipulation of the nuclear spin states. The rare earth ions of interest also possess a linear Stark shift which is essential for the quantum memory under investigation here. The scheme investigated here for a quantum memory involves reversible inhomogeneous broadening achieved via macroscopic electric field gradients. The advantage that this scheme has over its competitors is its simplicity. The scheme presented here requires no optical coupling beams and t he only light interacting with the sample is the light to be stored. For that reason the scheme inherently suffers less from noise than other quantum memory proposals. These advantages meant that it was possible to demonstrate the first optical memory using reversible inhomogeneous broadening via macroscopic electric field gradients. The experiments performed in this thesis were in two main areas. The first was characterisation of the hyperfine structure of rare earth ion materials. The second area was demonstrations of reversible inhomogeneous broadening as an optical memory.
Quantifying continuous-variable realism

description: The debate instigated by the seminal works of Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen, and Bell, put the notions of realism and nonlocality at the core of almost all philosophical and physical discussions underlying the foundations of quantum mechanics. However, while experimental criteria and quantifiers are by now well established for nonlocality, there is no clear quantitative measure for the degree of reality associated with continuous variables such as position and momentum. This work aims at filling this gap. Considering position and momentum as effectively discrete observables, we implement an operational notion of projective measurement and, from that, a criterion of reality for theses quantities. Then, we introduce a quantifier for the degree of irreality of a discretized continuous variable which, when applied to the conjugated pair position-momentum, is shown to obey an uncertainty relation, this meaning that quantum mechanics prevents classical realism for conjugated quantities. As an application of our formalism, we study the emergence of elements of reality in an instance where a Gaussian state is submitted to the dissipative dynamics implied by the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian. In particular, at the equilibrium, we make some links with the measurement problem and identify aspects that can be taken as the quantum counterpart for the notion of rest.

description: This research project is a documentation of a developmental journey centered on the incorporation of rhythmic elements from South Indian Carnatic music into an existing musical practice. The research provides an insight into the creative process of learning, adaptation and recontextualization of new musical elements into an existing musical practice that may provide a model and transferable methodology for musicians endeavouring to undertake similar research journeys of musical development. The Adaptation of Indian Carnatic Rhythmic Structures and Improvisation Methods into Drum Set Language and Performance explores the transformation process that occurs as a result of incorporating Carnatic rhythmic elements into the author’s drum set playing style. Through learning Carnatic rhythms, adapting the rhythms to the drum set and then applying the rhythms to musical situations, the research aims to observe the influence of this process on the author’s drum set playing within a performance context. The research focuses on examining the drum set playing on two different recordings. The recordings are presented as the creative works of the research, emphasizing audio-as-research which places listening as the central method of transmission. The creative works can be considered the primary vehicles through which the investigation of the performance practice occurs, with the exegesis serving to place the recordings within a written research context. The exegesis also provides the necessary background and contextual framework for the creative works.

Common ends, divergent means: US and Austalian responses to proliferation (chemical, biological, missile)
Creators: name: Cooper, David A.
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1999

description: Western governments have focused increasing attention over the past decade on combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and associated means of delivery. However, there has been relatively little scholarly examination of their individual anti-proliferation strategies, and virtually no meaningful attempt at comparison. The extant literature on proliferation therefore fails to illuminate the national preferences among influential supplier states that presumably have shaped international efforts to curb proliferation. This gap in knowledge fosters assumptions about the 'likemindedness' of Western responses to proliferation that essentially remain untested. This dissertation promotes and contributes to a nascent research agenda focusing on responses to proliferation at the national level by comprehensively examining the policies of two pivotal members of the Western anti-proliferation coalition. It addresses the central questions of how and why two close strategic allies and dedicated anti-proliferation partners might disagree on the means by which to achieve common anti-proliferation goals. The study constructs an original analytic framework by which to categorise and examine national responses to proliferation. It then utilises this framework as the basis for discrete empirical investigations of the anti-proliferation policies of the United States and Australia since the mid-1980s in the areas of chemical weapons (CW), biological weapons (BW), and missiles. Using a structured, comparative case studies methodology, it yields comprehensive comparative findings and analysis. The study's major comparative finding is that the United States and Australia have favoured markedly different, and not entirely complementary, anti-proliferation approaches. This divergence has been consistent over time and across the various proliferation areas. Its comparative analysis then infers that, because the likely explanations for this finding include causal variables that also distinguish other key supplier states - e.g. differences in the perceived geopolitical threats posed by proliferation - similar national divergence almost certainly extends to other Western governments. This in turn suggests that the superficial appearance of Western unanimity in responding to proliferation is misleading. The study concludes by suggesting that significant fissures among the national policy preferences of Western supplier states has negative implications for their ability to advance common anti-proliferation goals effectively.

Schilderungen von Körperhandlungen und Körperempfinden in der Arzt-Patienten-Interaktion. Gesprächsanalytische Auswertung von Gesprächen über dissoziative Bewegungsstörungen

description: Die Untersuchung von Arzt-Patienten-Gesprächen wird in der linguistischen Gesprächsanalyse viel und fruchtbar betrieben. Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt eine linguistisch gesprächsanalytische Untersuchung zu Arzt-Patienten-Interaktionen bezogen auf Fälle dissoziativer Bewegungsstörungen dar. Laut der medizinischen Hypothese zur Genese dissoziativer Bewegungsstörungen tritt das Krankheitsbild auf, weil die Betroffenen Konflikten, Ängsten und Spannungen ausgesetzt sind, die sie unbewusst unterdrücken. Es liegt ein Konzept gestörter Verbalisierbarkeit vor. Durch die explorative Untersuchung von sieben Gesprächen werden in der vorliegenden Arbeit sprachliche Strategien identifiziert, die Arzt und Patienten bei der Schilderung von selbstständigen Körperbewegungen sowie ungewöhnlichen Körperempfindungen in Fällen dissoziativer Bewegungsstörungen nutzen. Das Gespächsverhalten auf Seiten des Arztes stellt sich als wesentlich auf die Detaillierung von Körperhandeln und Körpererleben durch den Patienten ausgerichtet heraus. Auf Seiten der Patienten lässt sich dagegen eine Tendenz zur Vermeidung von Detaillieren beobachten, wobei diese in manchen Fällen schwach, in anderen stark ausgeprägt ist. In einer fallübergreifenden Analyse wird dann ein Gesprächsmechanismus herausgearbeitet, der über alle Gespräche hinweg wirksam zu sein scheint: Arzt und Patienten wechseln an aus ihrer Perspektive als problematisch markierten Stellen immer wieder die Strategie. Makrostrukturell führt dies zu einer Art interaktiver Suchoperation nach der geeigneten Strategie zur Körperschilderung. In der Regel stellt diese ein Rückgriff auf Bildlichkeit dar, entweder auf sprachlicher Ebene oder unter Einbezug einer anderen Modalität. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit sind bestätigend für die bisherigen Erkenntnisse der Bielefelder Anfallsgesprächsforschung. Sie haben zudem das Potenzial, im Sinne einer engen Anwendungsperspektive in die Differenzialtypologie epileptischer und anderer anfallsartiger Erkrankungen einbezogen zu werden. Darüber hinaus könnten sie den Ausgangspunkt für eine anwendungsorientierte Analyse im weiten Sinne zur Entwicklung einer good-practice für Ärzte im Gespräch mit Patienten mit dissoziativen Bewegungsstörungen darstellen.
title: Evaluation of cognitive-behavioral therapy-based intervention on type 2 diabetes patients with comorbid metabolic syndrome - a randomized controlled trial

description: Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common type of diabetes mellitus (DM) and its prevalence in China has increased rapidly. Poor control of DM leads to a series of complications, which seriously impair patients' quality of life. Importantly, the proportion of T2DM patients who meet the diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome (MS) is very high. The coexistence of the two diseases increases DM complications and the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Individuals that have T2DM and MS experience a higher incidence of depression and anxiety symptoms than the general population. These negative emotions create obstacles in effectively managing blood glucose levels. In addition, T2DM and MS patients commonly display suboptimal self-care behaviors, which can be attributed to negative emotions, insufficient knowledge about diabetes, or cognitive biases linked to the disease. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) aims to change the non-adaptive cognitions and behaviors of patients by developing therapeutic alliances, psychological education, cognitive reconstruction, and behavioral activation. Previous studies have applied it to the prevention and treatment of DM and MS and found positive effects. However, there have been few studies on the coexistence of two or more conditions. To address this gap, this study aimed to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to explore the effectiveness of CBT on the improvement of health outcomes in T2DM patients who have comorbid MS. This study represents the pioneering effort to explore the effectiveness of CBT in diabetes patients with coexisting MS. Additionally, the innovative integration of both face-to-face and remote intervention methods adds a novel dimension to this research. Furthermore, the study encompasses a diverse array of health outcome, including physiological indicators, psychological indicators, behavioral indicators, quality of life, and sleep quality. Aims: This study had three primary objectives: (1) to evaluate the effectiveness of CBT in improving health outcomes for patients who have diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease (CHD) using existing published studies, (2) to use baseline data to identify the variables that may be related to emotions, behaviors, and cognition in patients who have T2DM and comorbid MS to design targeted CBT intervention programs for the cohort of patients who have T2DM and comorbid MS, and (3) to investigate the impact of the CBT intervention program designed for this study on physiological, psychological, and behavioral indicators as well as its influence on sleep quality and the overall quality of life of patients who have T2DM and comorbid MS.

description: This paper describes an inverse shape design method for thermoelastic bodies. With a known equilibrium shape as input, the focus of this paper is the determination of the corresponding initial shape of a body undergoing thermal expansion or contraction, as well as nonlinear elastic deformations. A distinguishing feature of the described method lies in its capability to approximately prescribe an initial heterogeneous temperature distribution as well as an initial stress field even though the initial shape is unknown. At the core of the method, there is a system of nonlinear partial differential equations. They are discretized and solved with the finite element method or isogeometric analysis. In order to better integrate the method with application-oriented simulations, an iterative procedure is described that allows fine-tuning of the results. The method was motivated by an inverse cavity design problem in injection molding applications. Its use in this field is specifically highlighted, but the general description is kept independent of the application to simplify its adaptation to a wider range of use cases.
