description: We present a contactless method for measuring the elastic modulus of living cells (human triple-negative breast cancer, MDA-MB-231) from the thermal fluctuations of an atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilever. By analyzing the power spectral density (PSD) of the cantilevers thermal fluctuations, we obtain the resonance frequencies of its first three modes at various cell to cantilever separation distances. By comparing measurements on living cells with those on a rigid borosilicate sphere of the same size, we extract the frequency shift caused by the elasto-hydrodynamic coupling between the cantilever fluctuations and the deformations of the cells. We then fit this frequency shift using an elasto-hydrodynamic model that integrates hydrodynamic forces and cell deformation. This approach allows us to determine the elastic modulus values of the living cells for the first three resonant frequencies of the cantilever.

description: The Parents Preference Test (PPT) is a graphical test comprised of 24 easy to understand images of daily family life, which is widely used in forensic assessments of parenting skills. Nevertheless, the PPT lacks validity scales to detect participants’ attitudes toward the test; this is an important oversight, as the tendency to demonstrate faking-good parenting behaviors is common in child custody litigants. Study 1 aimed at identifying the differences in PPT responses between a normative/control group (N = 110) and a sample of parents undergoing a psychological evaluation of parenting ability (N = 99). Chi-square goodness of fit tests showed significant differences in answer preferences between groups in 11 vignettes (almost half of the total PPT items). Study 2 aimed at developing an index to detect faking-good behaviors. On the 11 vignettes in which significant differences in answer preferences were found in Study 1, the alternatives chosen with the highest frequency by the forensic group were added to an index called the “Conforming Parenting Index” (CPI). The area under the curve (AUC) of a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for a sample of 58 participants who completed the PPT under both standard and faking-good instructions demonstrated good classification accuracy (AUC= .813).

description: There are two standard ways of classifying transport behavior of systems. The first is via time scaling of spread of correlations in the isolated system in thermodynamic limit. The second is via system size scaling of conductance in the steady state of the open system. We show here that these correspond to taking the thermodynamic limit and the long time limit of the integrated equilibrium current-current correlations of the open system in different order. In general, the limits may not commute leading to a conflict between the two standard ways of transport classification. Nevertheless, the full information is contained in the equilibrium current-current correlations of the open system. We show this analytically by rigorously deriving the open-system current fluctuation dissipation relations (OCFDR) starting from an extremely general open quantum set-up and then carefully taking the proper limits. We test our theory numerically on the non-trivial example of the critical Aubry-André-Harper (AAH) model, where, it has been recently shown that, the two standard classifications indeed give different results. We find that both the total current autocorrelation and the long-range local current correlations of the open system in equilibrium show signatures of diffusive transport up to a time scale. This time scale grows as square of system size. Beyond this time scale a steady state value is reached. The steady state value is conductance, which shows sub-diffusive scaling with system size.

description: In terms of the Interacting Boson Model, shape invariants for the ground state, formed by quadrupole moments up to sixth order, are studied in the dynamical symmetry limits and, for the first time, over the whole structural range of the IBM-1. The results are related to the effective deformation parameters and their fluctuations in the geometrical model. New signatures that can distinguish vibrator and gamma-soft rotor structures, and one that is related to shape coexistence, are identified.

description: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between MTHFR, IRS and CALCA gene polymorphisms and development of diabetic nephropathy (DN) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Our study included 93 patients with type 2 DM diagnosed as having nephropathy and 95 controls diagnosed with type 2 DM without development of DN. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were used to determine the genotype distributions of MTHFR, IRS and CALCA gene polymorphisms. The results showed no statistically significant difference between DN patients and type 2 DM controls in terms of genotype distributions of MTHFR (C677T, A1298C), IRS (IRS-1 Gly972Arg, IRS-2 Gly1057Asp) and CALCA T692C gene polymorphisms (p > 0.05). However, in terms of allele frequencies for the MTHFR A1298C gene, the frequency of the C allele was significantly higher in the DN patients compared to the controls (p p p

description: The frustration index is a key measure for analysing signed networks, which has been underused due to its computational complexity. We use an exact optimisation-based method to analyse frustration as a global structural property of signed networks coming from diverse application areas. In the classic friend-enemy interpretation of balance theory, a by-product of computing the frustration index is the partitioning of nodes into two internally solidary but mutually hostile groups. The main purpose of this paper is to present general methodology for answering questions related to partial balance in signed networks, and apply it to a range of representative examples that are now analysable because of advances in computational methods. We provide exact numerical results on social and biological signed networks, networks of formal alliances and antagonisms between countries, and financial portfolio networks. Molecular graphs of carbon and Ising models are also considered. The purpose served by exploring several problems in this paper is to propose a single general methodology for studying signed networks and to demonstrate its relevance to applications. We point out several mistakes in the signed networks literature caused by inaccurate computation, implementation errors or inappropriate measures.

description: We report the serendipitous discovery of two objects close in projection with fairly strong emission lines at long wavelength (~9190 A). One (A) seems not to be hosted by any galaxy brighter than V(555)=27.5, or I(814)=26.7 (Vega-based 3-sigma limits in 1.0 arcsec diameter apertures), while the other line is associated with a faint (I(814)~24.4) red galaxy (B) offset by 2.7 arcsec and 7 A spectrally. Both lines are broad (FWHM 700 km/s), extended spatially, and have high equivalent widths (W(A,obs)>1225 A, 95% confidence limit; W(B,obs)~150 A). No secondary spectral features are detected for galaxy A. Blue continuum and the marginal detection of a second weak line in the spectrum of galaxy B is consistent with [OII] (the strong line) and MgII (the weak line) at z=1.466. By association, galaxy A is likely at z=1.464, implying a rest-frame equivalent width of the [OII] emission line in excess of 600 A and a projected separation of 30 kpc for the galaxy pair. Conventional wisdom states that isolated emission lines with rest-frame equivalent widths larger than ~200 A are almost exclusively Lyman-alpha. This moderate-redshift discovery therefore compromises recent claims of high-redshift Lyman-alpha emitters for which other criteria (i.e., line profile, associated continuum decrements) are not reported. We discuss observational tests to distinguish Lyman-alpha emitters at high redshift from foreground systems.

description: The aim of this study is focused on determining the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens QV15 priming fingerprint in two different plant species, Arabidopsis and blackberry as a crop of agronomic interest, associated with protection upon pathogen challenge. To achieve this goal, Arabidopsis thaliana plants were challenged with Pseudomonas syringae DC3000 under controlled conditions, and field-grown blackberries were challenged by a powdery Mildew outbreak, finding plant protection in plants treated with QV15, in both conditions. Changes in ROS scavenging enzymes’ activity, defense-related enzymes’ activity and gene expression were evaluated in both plant species, before and after pathogen challenge, revealing the ability of this strain to prime both. As a result of this analysis, the priming fingerprint induced by QV15 was defined by a decrease in ROS scavenging enzymes’ activity in pre- and post-challenged plants, an increase in glucanase and chitinase activity after pathogen challenge, significantly increasing the expression of PR1, indicating a salicylic acid (SA)-mediated pathway activation. These results suggest an excellent potential of B. amyloliquefaciens QV15 to protect different plant species against different pathogens in field conditions.

description: Although a growing body of research suggests a robust association between insecure attachment, emotion regulation problems and externalizing problems, as Disruptive Behaviour Disorders (DBD), in children, only a few studies have explored these constructs in their parents. Moreover, the role of the father is often neglected. The current study aimed to investigate attachment representations and emotion regulation strategies in parents with DBD children (considering mothers and father separately), compared with a comparison group. The research involved 100 Italian parents: 36 clinical parents (18 mothers and 18 fathers) of children aged 8-12 years with a diagnosis of DBD, and 64 parents (32 mothers and 32 fathers) of children with no clinical symptoms. Parents’ attachment representations were assessed through the Adult Attachment Interview and their emotional regulation strategies through the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. The clinical status of children was the result of an evaluation by two mental health experts and a compilation by both parents of the Child Behavior Checklist 6-18 Version. Our results pointed to a greater presence of Insecure-Entangled attachment in DBD mothers and a lower level of Cognitive Reappraisal in DBD fathers compared with comparison parents. Nevertheless, maternal Insecure and paternal Cognitive Reappraisal did not together predict children DBD as the outcome. These preliminary findings make a significant contribution to the topic of emotional functioning of DBD parents, suggesting the importance to further deepen the quality of parenting in the context of DBD children.

description: The aim of this study is to evaluate parental perceptions of parent-infant bedtime interactions and quality of sleep, after hospital discharge, in a group of children diagnosed at birth with congenital heart disease (CHD), as compared with the perceptions of parents in a control group of children who were healthy at birth. More specifically, we evaluated the associations between parental stress, parental perceptions of infant emotion regulation, and infants’ bedtime and sleep routines in each of the two groups. Fifty Italian intact two-parent families (23 boys) of toddlers ageing from 11 to 36 months (M= 23.42, SD=7.10) were recruited. 20 families of CHD children group were recruited from the Department of Cardiology at the Bambino Gesù Children’s Hospital in Rome, Italy; 30 families of the healthy children group were recruited from two childcare units. Parents completed Emotion Regulation Checklist (Shields & Cicchetti, 1997), Parent-Child Sleep Interaction Scale (PSIS; Alfano et al., 2013), Parent-Stress Index-Short Form (PSI-SF; Abidin, 1990) and ad-hoc semi-structured interview on child’s sleep quality. The independent-samples t-test evidenced that parents of healthy children reported significantly higher scores on children's emotion regulation compared with the CHD group Specifically CHD children and healthy children's emotion regulation reported both by mothers (respectively CHD children’s mothers: M= 26.11, SD= 2.9; healthy children’s mothers: M= 28.85, SD= 2.71; t(37) = 3.10, p= .004) and fathers (respectively CHD children’s fathers: M=25.76, SD= 2.79; healthy children’s fathers: M= 27.37, SD= 2.02; t(31)= 2.71, p= .010). Main correlational findings showed in the CHD children’s group that parenting stress total scores were positive related to difficult parent-infant bedtime interactions both for mothers (r=.58, p < .01) and fathers (r= .70, p < .01). Results show significant differences in emotion regulation between the two groups. The results of this research will show to the clinicians the aspects of parent-infant bedtime interactions to be addressed in parents of children with CHD.

description: The rainbow truncation of the quark Dyson-Schwinger equation is combined with the ladder Bethe-Salpeter equation for the meson amplitudes and the dressed quark-photon vertex in a self-consistent Poincaré-invariant study of the pion and kaon electromagnetic form factors in impulse approximation. We demonstrate explicitly that the current is conserved in this approach and that the obtained results are independent of the momentum partitioning in the Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes. With model gluon parameters previously fixed by the condensate, the pion mass and decay constant, and the kaon mass, the charge radii and spacelike form factors are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data.

description: Traditionally, snow cover has been seen as an obstacle to land-cover classification and impervious surface detection based on remote sensing. However, snow cover increases the spectral contrast between impermeable surfaces and other land-use types. This study evaluated the impact of snow cover on the accuracy of impervious surface detection based on Landsat optical imagery. Data from six locations worldwide (three urban, three rural; each 30 km × 30 km) provided the input to a classification of summer (snow-free) and winter (snow-covered) data. This found that for most locations, the overall accuracy of the classification of impervious surface detection was 91.0%–94.0% (kappa 81.0%–93.0%), which was only 1.0%–3.0% less than for summer (92.0%–98.0%, kappa 86.0%–95.0%). Moreover, this difference was not statistically significant. Similarly, when summer and winter observations are processed together – as a single, bi-temporal data set – the inclusion of snow cover does not decrease the classification accuracy. We conclude that snow-covered imagery is useful for impervious surface detection and has no significant impact on classification accuracy for impervious surfaces.

description: We present a theoretical and exact analysis of the bispectrum of projected galaxy catalogues. The result can be generalized to evaluate the projection in spherical harmonics of any 3D bispectrum and therefore has applications to cosmic microwave background and gravitational lensing studies. By expanding the 2D distribution of galaxies on the sky in spherical harmonics, we show how the 3-point function of the coefficients can be used in principle to determine the bias parameter of the galaxy sample. If this can be achieved, it would allow a lifting of the degeneracy between the bias and the matter density parameter of the Universe which occurs in linear analysis of 3D galaxy catalogues. In previous papers we have shown how a similar analysis can be done in three dimensions, and we show here, through an error analysis and by implementing the method on a simulated projected catalogue, that ongoing three-dimensional galaxy redshift surveys (even with all the additional uncertainties introduced by partial sky coverage, redshift-space distortions and smaller numbers) will do far better than all-sky projected catalogues with similar selection function.

description: Photon losses are among the strongest imperfections affecting multi-photon interference. Despite their importance, little is known about their effect on boson sampling experiments. In this work we show that using classical computers, one can efficiently simulate multi-photon interference in all architectures that suffer from an exponential decay of the transmission with the depth of the circuit, such as integrated photonic circuits or optical fibers. We prove that either the depth of the circuit is large enough that it can be simulated by thermal noise with an algorithm running in polynomial time, or it is shallow enough that a tensor network simulation runs in quasi-polynomial time. This result suggests that in order to implement a quantum advantage experiment with single-photons and linear optics new experimental platforms may be needed.

description: The use of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering is well established, given their properties of self-renewal and differentiation. However, several studies have shown that these properties diminish with age, and understanding the pathways involved are important to provide regenerative therapies in an ageing population. In this PRISMA systematic review, we investigated the effects of chronological donor ageing on the senescence of MSCs. We identified 3023 studies after searching four databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Medline. Nine studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were included in the final analyses. These studies showed an increase in the expression of p21, p53, p16, ROS, and NF-κB with chronological age. This implies an activated DNA damage response (DDR), as well as increased levels of stress and inflammation in the MSCs of older donors. Additionally, highlighting the effects of an activated DDR in cells from older donors, a decrease in the expression of proliferative markers including Ki67, MAPK pathway elements, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway elements was observed. Furthermore, we found an increase in the levels of SA-β-galactosidase, a specific marker of cellular senescence. Together, these findings support an association between chronological age and MSC senescence. The precise threshold for chronological age where the reported changes become significant is yet to be defined and should form the basis for further scientific investigations. The outcomes of this review should direct further investigations into reversing the biological effects of chronological age on the MSC senescence phenotype.

The rules arise from symmetrization in states in the limit of non-relativistically moving quarks. The conditions under which hybrid coupling to S-wave states is suppressed are determined by the rules, and the nature of their breaking is indicated.

description: The relevance of the axial current for pion production processes off the nucleon with real or virtual photons is revisited. Employing the hypothesis of a partially conserved axial current (PCAC), it is shown that, when all of the relevant contributions are taken into account, PCAC does not provide any additional constraint for threshold production processes that goes beyond the Goldberger-Treiman relation. In particular, it is shown that pion electroproduction processes at threshold cannot be used to extract any information regarding the weak axial form factor. The relationships found in previous investigations are seen to be an accident of the approximations usually made in this context.

description: This paper developes a theoretical model directed towards investigation of the static pull-in instability of functionally graded (FG) electrostatic nano-bridge under the influence of electrostatic and van der Waals (vdW) forces in thermal environment via nonlocal strain gradient theory (NLSGT) of elasticity and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory in conjunction with the nonlinear geometric effect resulting from mid-plane stretching. The material properties of FG nano-beam are assumed to vary gradually along the thickness direction according to simple power-law form. With the purpose of eliminating the coupling between the stretching and bending due to the asymmetrical material variation along with the thickness, a new surface reference is introduced. The nonlinear integro-differential governing equation is derived utilizing minimum total potential energy principle, linearized by means of the step-by-step linearization method (SSLM) and solved by Galerkin based weighted residual method. The numerical investigations are performed while the emphasis is placed on studying the effect of various parameters including nonlocal parameter, material characteristic length scale, material gradient index, the thermal effect and intermolecular force on the static pull-in instability of FG nano-beam. To establish the validity of the present formulation, a comparison is conducted with experimental and numerical results reported in previous studies.

description: ObjectivesAO Spine REsearch objectives and Common Data Elements for Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy [RECODE-DCM] is a multi-stakeholder consensus process aiming to promote research efficiency in DCM. It aims to establish the top 10 research uncertainties, through a James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership [PSP]. Through a consensus process, research questions are generated and ranked. The inclusion of people with cervical myelopathy [PwCM] is central to the process. We hypothesized that presenting PwCM experience through word cloud generation would stimulate other key stakeholders to generate research questions better aligned with PwCM needs. This protocol outlines our plans to evaluate this as a nested methodological study within our PSP.MethodsAn online poll asked PwCM to submit and vote on words associated with aspects of DCM. After review, a refined word list was re-polled for voting and word submission. Word clouds were generated and an implementation plan for AO Spine RECODE-DCM PSP surveys was subsequently developed.ResultsSeventy-nine terms were submitted after the first poll. Eighty-seven refined words were then re-polled (which added a further 39 words). Four word clouds were generated under the categories of diagnosis, management, long-term effects, and other. A 1:1 block randomization protocol to assess word cloud impact on the number and relevance of PSP research questions was generated.ConclusionsWe have shown it is feasible to work with PwCM to generate a tool for the AO Spine RECODE-DCM nested methodological study. Once the survey stage is completed, we will be able to evaluate the impact of the word clouds. Further research will be needed to assess the value of any impact in terms of stimulating a more creative research agenda.

High Velocity Rain: The Terminal Velocity of Model of Galactic Infall

description: A model is proposed for determining the distances to falling interstellar clouds in the galactic halo by measuring the cloud velocity and column density and assuming a model for the vertical density distribution of the Galactic interstellar medium. It is shown that falling clouds with $N(H I) < \sim 10^{19} cm^{-2}$ may be decelerated to a terminal velocity which increases with increasing height above the Galactic plane. This terminal velocity model correctly predicts the distance to high velocity cloud Complex M and several other interstellar structures of previously determined distance. It is demonstrated how interstellar absorption spectra alone may be used to predict the distances of the clouds producing the absorption. If the distances to the clouds are already known, we demonstrate how the model may be used to determine the vertical density structure of the ISM. The derived density distribution is consistent with the expected density distribution of the warm ionized medium, characterized by Reynolds. There is also evidence that for $z >\sim 0.4 kpc$ one or more of the following occurs: (1) the neutral fraction of the cloud decreases to $\sim 31 \pm 14%$, (2) the density drops off faster than characterized by Reynolds, or (3) there is a systematic decrease in drag coefficient with increasing z.

description: In this paper, we establish a vanishing theorem of Nadel type for the Witt multiplier ideals on threefolds over perfect fields of characteristic larger than five. As an application, if a projective normal threefold over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is not klt and its canonical divisor is anti-ample, then the number of the rational points on the klt-locus is divisible by $q$.

description: This article proposes to show how the use of the drawing of the home can help differentiate two older populations, with or without cognitive impairment as part of research to identify early signs of Alzheimer's disease. The projective test of the house is complementary to the cognitive assessment. Two groups of older adults are compared: an experimental group with 24 people aged 67 with cognitive impairment and a control group with 36 people aged 71.5 years with normal cognitive aging. Analysis of the house drawings revealed significant differences in the realization of the drawings between the control group (CG) and the experimental group (EG). The characteristics of the drawings of elderly people with cognitive impairment show more difficult access to imagination and a feeling of insecurity as of the first memory impairment. This article puts the body at the center of psychoanalytic work and explores the relationship between the psychic and bodily dimensions of elderly subjects using a projective spatiography test. This projective tool allowed us to collect information on the psychic functioning of the elderly.

description: Social transmission of information is taxonomically widespread and could have profound effects on the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of animal communities. Demonstrating this in the wild, however, has been challenging. Here we show by field experiment that social transmission among predators can shape how selection acts on prey defences. Using artificial prey and a novel approach in statistical analyses of social networks, we find that blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) and great tit (Parus major) predators learn about prey defences by watching others. This shifts population preferences rapidly to match changes in prey profitability, and reduces predation pressure from naïve predators. Our results may help resolve how costly prey defences are maintained despite influxes of naïve juvenile predators, and suggest that accounting for social transmission is essential if we are to understand coevolutionary processes.
A Serendipitous Search for High-Redshift Lyman alpha Emission: Two Primeval Galaxy Candidates at z~3

description: In the course of our ongoing search for serendipitous high-redshift Lyman alpha (LyA) Emissionin deep archival Keck spectra, we discovered two very high equivalent width (W_{obs} ~ 450A, 2-sigma) LyA emission line candidates at z ~3 in a moderate dispersion (R~1200) spectrogram. Both lines have low velocity dispersions (sigma_v ~ 60 km/s) and deconvolved radii r ~ 1 kpc (h = 0.5). We argue that the lines are LyA, and are powered by stellar ionization. The surface density of robust, high equivalent width LyA candidates is estimated to be ~3 \pm 2 per arcmin^2 per unit redshift at z ~ 3, consistent with the estimate of Cowie etal (1998). The LyA emission line source characteristics are consistent with the galaxies undergoing their first burst of star formation, ie, with being primeval. Source sizes and velocity dispersions are comparable to the theoretical primeval galaxy model of Lin and Murray (1992) based on the inside-out, self-similar collapse of an isothermal sphere. In this model, star formation among field galaxies is a protracted process. Galaxies are thought to be able to display high equivalent widths for only the first few x 10 Myr. This time is short in relation to the difference in look back times between z=3 and z=4, and implies that a substantial fraction of strong line-emitting galaxies at z=3 were formed at redshifts z < 4. We discuss the significance of high-equivalent width LyA-emitting galaxies in terms of the emerging picture of the environment, and the specific characteristics of primeval galaxy formation at high redshift.

description: Spinal cord stimulation is one of the oldest and most established neuromodulation therapies. However, today, clinicians need to choose between bulky paddle-type devices, requiring invasive surgery under general anesthetic, and percutaneous lead-type devices, which can be implanted via simple needle puncture under local anesthetic but offer clinical drawbacks when compared with paddle devices. By applying photo- and soft lithography fabrication, we have developed a device that features thin, flexible electronics and integrated fluidic channels. This device can be rolled up into the shape of a standard percutaneous needle then implanted on the site of interest before being expanded in situ, unfurling into its paddle-type conformation. The device and implantation procedure have been validated in vitro and on human cadaver models. This device paves the way for shape-changing bioelectronic devices that offer a large footprint for sensing or stimulation but are implanted in patients percutaneously in a minimally invasive fashion.
