description: MAXIMA is a balloon-borne platform for measuring the anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). It has measured the CMB power spectrum with a ten-arcminute FWHM beam, corresponding to a detection of the power spectrum out to spherical harmonic multipole l~1000. The spectrum is consistent with a flat Universe with a nearly scale-invariant initial spectrum of adiabatic density fluctuations. Moreover, the MAXIMA data are free from any notable non-Gaussian contamination and from foreground dust emission. In the same region, the WMAP experiment observes the same structure as that observed by MAXIMA, as evinced by analysis of both maps and power spectra. The next step in the evolution of the MAXIMA program is MAXIPOL, which will observe the polarization of the CMB with comparable resolution and high sensitivity over a small patch of the sky.

description: Introduction: Patients with long-term tracheostomies, with or without mechanical ventilation have complex and comprehensive healthcare needs. The number of patients is increasing internationally. Evidence suggests poor healthcare quality and outcomes, especially in Germany. Against this background, we searched for international concepts tailoring healthcare to these special needs, their key characteristics and results from their evaluations. Methods: A scoping review was performed in 2018 based on a systematic search of scientific databases and grey literature without restrictions to publication type. Key information was charted and thematically analysed based on the taxonomy of integrated care. Evaluations were analysed descriptively. Results: Seventy-nine publications related to 25 programmes from five countries were included. Healthcare concepts are usually regionally adapted and tertiary sector-based with a cross-sectoral approach. Care coordination responsibility is usually assigned to advanced nurse practitioners, embedded in multi-professional programme teams. Interventions consist of specialised needs-based clinical services combined with care coordination, homecare support and education. Evaluation of concepts is scarce, but existing results indicate beneficial effects on patient-related outcomes, care coordination, healthcare utilisation and costs. Conclusions: The concepts available in the literature are often poorly described and rarely evaluated. Research is needed on their impact on healthcare quality and outcomes. However, several key characteristics were identified, which should be considered when developing and implementing integrated and needs-based approaches for the patient group in Germany and beyond.

Es liegt in ihrer Verantwortung, den Geburtsbeginn zu diagnostizieren und den richtigen Zeitpunkt zu erkennen, um professionelle Unterstützung zu suchen. Die institutionellen Leitlinien der Spitäler zielen darauf ab, Gebärende erst mit fortschreitender Geburt aufzunehmen. Studien zeigen, dass ein früher Spitaleintritt mit negativen geburtshilflichen Outcomes sowie höheren Interventionsraten, beispielsweise Wehenförderung und Periduralanästhesie, verbunden ist. Deshalb wird Frauen in der Latenzphase oft geraten, zu Hause zu bleiben, was überfordernd und

description: The general idea of a stochastic gauge representation is introduced and compared with more traditional phase-space expansions, like the Wigner expansion. Stochastic gauges can be used to obtain an infinite class of positive-definite stochastic time-evolution equations, equivalent to master equations, for many systems including quantum time-evolution. The method is illustrated with a variety of simple examples ranging from astrophysical molecular hydrogen production, through to the topical problem of Bose-Einstein condensation in an optical trap and the resulting quantum dynamics.

description: Isolated Local Group (LG) dwarf galaxies have evolved most or all of their life unaffected by interactions with the large LG spirals and therefore offer the opportunity to learn about the intrinsic characteristics of this class of objects. Here we explore the internal kinematic and metallicity properties of one of the three isolated LG dwarf spheroidal galaxies, i.e. the Tucana dSph. This is an intriguing system, as it has been found in the literature to have an internal rotation of up to 16 km/s, a much higher velocity dispersion than other dSphs of similar luminosity, and a possible exception to the too-big-too-fail problem. We present results for a new VLT/FORS2 spectroscopic dataset in the CaII triplet region for 50 candidate red giant branch stars in the direction of Tucana, which yielded line-of-sight velocity and metallicity ([Fe/H]) measurements of 39 effective members. This doubles the number of Tucana's stars with such measurements. In addition, we re-reduce and include in our analysis the other two spectroscopic datasets presented in the literature, the VLT/FORS2 sample by Fraternali et al. (2009) and the VLT/FLAMES one by Gregory et al. (2019). We measure a systemic velocity of $180.0\pm1.3$ km/s, consistently across the various datasets analyzed, and find that a dispersion-only model is moderately favored over models accounting also for internal rotation. Our best estimate of the internal velocity dispersion is $6.2_{-1.3}^{+1.6}$ km/s, much smaller than the values reported in the literature and in line with similarly luminous dSphs; this is consistent with Tucana not being an exception to the too-big-to-fail problem, nor living in a dark matter halo much more massive than those of its siblings. As for the metallicity properties, we do not find anything unusual; there are hints of the presence of a [Fe/H] gradient but more data are needed to pin its presence down.

description: It has been suggested that an age-related loss of cognitive function might be driven by atherosclerotic effects associated with altered lipid patterns. However, the relationship between Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] and healthy cognitive aging has not yet been sufficiently investigated. For the current analysis we used the cross-sectional data of 1,380 Berlin Aging Study II (BASE-II) participants aged 60 years and older (52.2% women, mean age 68 ± 4 years). We employed the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer’s Disease (CERAD)-Plus test battery to establish latent factors representing continuous measures of domain specific cognitive functions. Regression models adjusted for APOE genotypes, lipid parameters and other risk factors for cognitive impairment were applied to assess the association between Lp(a) and performance in specific cognitive domains. Men within the lowest Lp(a)-quintile showed better cognitive performance in the cognitive domain executive functions and processing speed (p = 0.027). No significant results were observed in women. The results of the current analysis of predominantly healthy BASE-II participants point towards an association between low Lp(a) concentrations and better cognitive performance. However, evidence for this relationship resulting from the current analysis and the employment of a differentiated cognitive assessment is rather weak.

description: We present a new flexible high speed laser scanning confocal microscope and its extension by an astigmatism particle tracking device (APTV). Many standard confocal microscopes use either a single laser beam to scan the sample at relatively low overall frame rate, or many laser beam to simultaneously scan the sample and achieve a high overall frame rate. Single-laser-beam confocal microscope often use a point detector to acquire the image. To achieve high overall frame rates, we use, next to the standard 2D probe scanning unit, a second 2D scan unit projecting the image directly on a 2D CCD-sensor (re-scan configuration). Using only a single laser beam eliminates cross-talk and leads to an imaging quality that is independent of the frame rate with a lateral resolution of 0.235\unit{μm}. The design described here is suitable for high frame rate, i.e., for frame rates well above video rate (full frame) up to a line rate of 32kHz. The dwell time of the laser focus on any spot in the sample (122ns) is significantly shorter than in standard confocal microscopes (in the order of milli or microseconds). This short dwell time reduces phototoxicity and bleaching of fluorescent molecules. The new design opens further flexibility and facilitates coupling to other optical methods. The setup can easily be extended by an APTV device to measure three dimensional dynamics while being able to show high resolution confocal structures. Thus one can use the high resolution confocal information synchronized with an APTV dataset.

description: A thick Z_2-symmetric domain wall supported by a scalar field with an arbitrary potential V(ϕ) in 5D general relativity is considered as a candidate brane world. We show that, under the global regularity requirement, such a configuration (i) has always an AdS asymptotic far from the brane, (ii) is only possible if V(ϕ) has an alternating sign and (iii) V(ϕ) satisfies a certain fine-tuning type equality. The thin brane limit is well defined and conforms to the Randall-Sundrum (RS2) brane world model if the asymptotic value of V(ϕ) (related to Λ, the effective cosmological constant) is kept thickness-independent. Universality of such a transition is demonstrated using as an example exact solutions for stepwise potentials of different shapes. Also, due to scale invariance of the Einstein-scalar equations, any given regular solution creates a one-parameter family of solutions with different potentials. In such families, a thin brane limit does not exist while the ratio Λ/(brane tension)^2 is thickness-independent and is in general different from its value in the RS2 model.

The evolution of galaxy clustering since z=1 from the Calar Alto Deep Imaging Survey

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We present results from an investigation of the clustering evolution of field galaxies between a redshift of z~1 and the present epoch. The current analysis relies on a sample of ~3600 galaxies from the Calar Alto Deep Imaging Survey (CADIS). The redshift distribution extends to z~1.1, with formal errors of sigma_z~0.02. Thus the amplitude of the three-dimensional correlation function can be estimated by means of the projected correlation function w(r_p). We developed a new method to overcome the influence of redshift errors on w(r_p). We parametrise the evolution of the clustering strength with redshift by a parameter q, the values of which give directly the deviation of the evolution from the global Hubble flow. From a subsample of bright galaxies we find q=-2.28+-0.31 for Omega_m=0.3, Omega_Lambda=0.7, that is a significant growth of the clustering strength between z=1 and the present epoch. From linear theory of dark matter clustering growth one would only expect q=-2. Moreover, we establish that the measured clustering strength depends on galaxy type: galaxies with early type SEDs (Hubble type: E0 to Sbc) are more strongly clustered at redshifts z>0.2 than later types. The evolution of the amplitude of the two-point correlation function for these ``old'' galaxies is much slower (q=-0.85+-0.82 for Omega_m=0.3, Omega_Lambda=0.7).

The new model explains recent acceleration and past deceleration. Furthermore, the new model also gives a decelerated universe in the future.

Improvements include in particular the accurate treatment of unequal spin effects, and the inclusion of extreme mass ratio waveforms. IMRPhenomD has previously been extended to approximately include spin precession [3] and subdominant spherical harmonics [4], and with its extensions it has become a standard tool in gravitational wave parameter estimation. Improved extensions of IMRPhenomXAS are discussed in companion papers [5,6].

description: Since the Maidan Revolution in 2014, Ukraine has made more progress implementing reforms than in any other period since the country declared independence in 1991. The new government has set ambitious goals - however, there are numerous obstacles which may hamper its achievement. There is a lot of resistance to implementing anticorruption reforms, in large part from the bureaucrats, politicians and oligarchs who have long enjoyed favored status and business arrangements. Further hindering the reforms is the destabilization of eastern Ukraine caused by the ongoing war in the Donbass.

description: Weight loss and sports supplements containing deterenol have been associated with serious adverse events including cardiac arrest. To determine the presence and quantity of experimental stimulants in dietary supplements labeled as containing deterenol sold in the United States. Dietary supplements available for sale in the US and labeled as containing deterenol or one of its synonyms (e.g., isopropylnorsynephrine and isopropyloctopamine) were purchased online. For each brand, one container or subsample was analyzed by NSF International (Ann Arbor, MI) and one container or subsample by the Netherland’s National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM, Bilthoven, The Netherlands). When differences existed between the two containers or subsamples of the same brand, both products were reanalyzed by Sciensano (Brussels, Belgium). NSF International carried out qualitative and quantitative analyses using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. RIVM performed qualitative and quantitative analysis using UHPLC quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Sciensano carried out qualitative analysis using UHPLC quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. Seventeen brands of supplements were analyzed. Many brands included more than one prohibited stimulant in the same product: 4 brands (24%, 4/17) included 2 stimulants, 2 (12%, 2/17) combined 3 stimulants, and 2 (12%, 2/17) combined 4 stimulants. The range of quantities per recommended serving size of the 9 stimulants detected were 2.7 mg to 17 mg of deterenol; 1.3 mg to 20 mg of phenpromethamine (Vonedrine); 5.7 mg to 92 mg of beta-methylphenylethylamine (BMPEA); 18 mg to 73 mg of octodrine; 18 mg to 55 mg of oxilofrine; 48 mg of higenamine; 17 mg of 1,3-dimethylamylamine (1,3-DMAA); 1.8 mg to 6.6 mg of 1,3-dimethylbutylamine (1,3-DMBA); and 5.3 mg of 1,4-dimethylamylamine (1,4-DMAA). Weight loss and sports supplements listing deterenol as an ingredient contained 9 prohibited stimulants and 8 different mixtures of stimulants, with as many as 4 experimental stimulants per product. These cocktails of stimulants have never been tested in humans and their safety is unknown.
Explicit Triangular Decoupling of the Separated Lichnerowicz Tensor Wave Equation on Schwarzschild into Scalar Regge-Wheeler Equations

description: We consider the vector and the Lichnerowicz wave equations on the Schwarzschild spacetime, which correspond to the Maxwell and linearized Einstein equations in harmonic gauges (or, respectively, in Lorenz and de Donder gauges). After a complete separation of variables, the radial mode equations form complicated systems of coupled linear ODEs. We outline a precise abstract strategy to decouple these systems into sparse triangular form, where the diagonal blocks consist of spin-$s$ scalar Regge-Wheeler equations (for spins $s=0,1,2$). Building on the example of the vector wave equation, which we have treated previously, we complete a successful implementation of our strategy for the Lichnerowicz wave equation. Our results go a step further than previous more ad-hoc attempts in the literature by presenting a full and maximally simplified final triangular form. These results have important applications to the quantum field theory of and the classical stability analysis of electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of the Schwarzschild black hole in harmonic gauges.

description: Although the broad outlines of the appropriate pipeline for cosmological likelihood analysis with CMB data has been known for several years, only recently have we had to contend with the full, large-scale, computationally challenging problem involving both highly-correlated noise and extremely large datasets ($N > 1000$). In this talk we concentrate on the beginning and end of this process. First, we discuss estimating the noise covariance from the data itself in a rigorous and unbiased way; this is essentially an iterated minimum-variance mapmaking approach. We also discuss the unbiased determination of cosmological parameters from estimates of the power spectrum or experimental bandpowers.

description: A key action for enhancing the sensitivity of gravitational wave (GW) detectors based on laser interferometry is to increase the laser power. However, in such a high-power regime, a nonlinear optomechanical phenomenon called parametric instability (PI) leads to the amplification of the mirrors vibrational modes preventing the detector functioning. Thus this phenomenon limits the detectors maximum power and so its performances. Our group has started an experimental research program aiming at realizing a exible and active mitigation system, based on the radiation pressure applied by an auxiliary laser. A summary on the PI mitigation techniques will be presented, we will explain the working principle of the system that we are implementing and report about the first experimental results.

description: Background: To evaluate the clinical utility of combined T2-weighted imaging and T2-mapping for the detection of prostate cancer. Methods: Forty patients underwent multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and T2-mapping of the prostate. Three readers each reviewed two sets of images: T2-weighted fast spin-echo (FSE) sequence (standard T2), and standard T2 in combination with T2-mapping. Each reader assigned probability scores for malignancy to each zone [peripheral zone (PZ) or transition zone (TZ)]. Inter-observer variability for standard T2 and combined standard T2 with T2-mapping were assessed. Diagnostic accuracy was compared between standard T2 and combined standard T2 with T2-mapping. Results: There was fair agreement between all three readers for standard T2 [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) =0.56] and combined standard T2 with T2-mapping (ICC =0.58). There was no significant difference in the area under the receiver operator characteristics curve for standard T2 compared to combined standard T2 with T2-mapping (0.89 vs. 0.82, P=0.31). Sensitivity (Sn) for combined standard T2 with T2-mapping was significantly higher compared to standard T2 alone (73.0% vs. 49.2%, P=0.006). Specificity (Sp) for combined standard T2 with T2-mapping was borderline significantly lower compared to standard T2 alone (89.3% vs. 94.9%, P=0.05). There was no significant differences between the negative predictive values (NPVs) and positive predictive values (PPVs) (P=0.07, P=0.45). Conclusions: Combination of T2-weighted imaging and T2-mapping could potentially increase Sn for prostate malignancy compared to T2-weighted imaging alone.

description: It is proven that the inverse localization length of an Anderson model on a strip of width $L$ is bounded above by $L/λ^2$ for small values of the coupling constant $λ$ of the disordered potential. For this purpose, a formalism is developed in order to calculate the bottom Lyapunov exponent associated with random products of large symplectic matrices perturbatively in the coupling constant of the randomness.

description: The high mortality rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients is directly associated with metastatic dissemination. However, therapeutic options specifically for metastasis are still limited. We previously identified Metastasis-Associated in Colon Cancer 1 (MACC1) as a major causal metastasis-inducing gene. Numerous studies confirmed its value as a biomarker for metastasis risk. We investigated the inhibitory impact of saffron on MACC1-induced cancer cell growth and motility. Saffron crudes restricted the proliferation and migration of MACC1-expressing CRC cells in a concentration- and MACC1-dependent manner. Saffron delays cell cycle progression at G2/M-phase and does not induce apoptosis. Rescue experiments showed that these effects are reversible. Analysis of active saffron compounds elucidated that crocin was the main compound that reproduced total saffron crudes effects. We showed the interaction of MACC1 with the cancer stem cell (CSC) marker DCLK1, which contributes to metastasis formation in different tumor entities. Saffron extracts reduced DCLK1 with crocin being responsible for this reduction. Saffron's anti-proliferative and anti-migratory effects in MACC1-expressing cells are mediated by crocin through DCLK1 down-regulation. This research is the first identification of saffron-based compounds restricting cancer cell proliferation and motility progression via the novel target MACC1.

description: The fierce stigma associated with pedophilia may interfere with attempts to prevent sexual offending. Prior research on the effects of media reports about pedophilia mostly focused on their role in perpetuating stigma in the general population. In order to better understand potential benefits and risks of the media coverage on people with pedophilia and specialized prevention and treatment efforts, we conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews with 11 healthcare practitioners of the German Prevention Network "Don't offend". Healthcare practitioners described positive (e.g., raising awareness for prevention offers) as well as negative (e.g., perpetuating the existing public stigma) effects of the media coverage and estimated that only about one-third of media coverage portrays pedophilia realistically. To destigmatize pedophilia and benefit the prevention of child sexual abuse, a fact box for journalists was developed based on practitioners' expert knowledge.

description: We show that the Fermi surface can survive the presence of extreme compositional disorder in the equiatomic alloy Ni$_{0.25}$Fe$_{0.25}$Co$_{0.25}$Cr$_{0.25}$. Our high-resolution Compton scattering experiments reveal a Fermi surface which is smeared across a significant fraction of the Brillouin zone (up to 40\% of $\frac{2π}{a}$). The extent of this smearing and its variation on and between different sheets of the Fermi surface has been determined, and estimates of the electron mean-free-path and residual resistivity have been made by connecting this smearing with the coherence length of the quasiparticle states.
Observational Constraints on Chaplygin Quartessence: Background Results

description: We derive the constraints set by several experiments on the quartessence Chaplygin model (QCM). In this scenario, a single fluid component drives the Universe from a nonrelativistic matter-dominated phase to an accelerated expansion phase behaving, first, like dark matter and in a more recent epoch like dark energy. We consider current data from SNIa experiments, statistics of gravitational lensing, FR IIb radio galaxies, and x-ray gas mass fraction in galaxy clusters. We investigate the constraints from this data set on flat Chaplygin quartessence cosmologies. The observables considered here are dependent essentially on the background geometry, and not on the specific form of the QCM fluctuations. We obtain the confidence region on the two parameters of the model from a combined analysis of all the above tests. We find that the best-fit occurs close to the $Λ$CDM limit ($α=0$). The standard Chaplygin quartessence ($α=1$) is also allowed by the data, but only at the $\sim2σ$ level.

description: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) comprises a heterogeneous group of primary liver tumors. They emerge from different hepatic (progenitor) cell populations, typically via sporadic mutations. Chronic biliary inflammation, as seen in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), may trigger CCA development. Although several efforts were made in the last decade to better understand the complex processes of biliary carcinogenesis, it was only recently that new therapeutic advances have been achieved. Animal models are a crucial bridge between in vitro findings on molecular or genetic alterations, pathophysiological understanding, and new therapeutic strategies for the clinic. Nevertheless, it is inherently difficult to recapitulate simultaneously the stromal microenvironment (e.g., immune-competent cells, cholestasis, inflammation, PSC-like changes, fibrosis) and the tumor biology (e.g., mutational burden, local growth, and metastatic spread) in an animal model, so that it would reflect the full clinical reality of CCA. In this review, we highlight available data on animal models for CCA. We discuss if and how these models reflect human disease and whether they can serve as a tool for understanding the pathogenesis, or for predicting a treatment response in patients. In addition, open issues for future developments will be discussed.

description: We discuss possible origins of recently discovered microwave induced photoresistance oscillations in very-high-electron-mobility two-dimensional electron systems. We show that electrodynamic effects -- the radiative decay, plasma oscillations, and retardation effects, -- are important under the experimental conditions, and that their inclusion in the theory is essential for understanding the discussed and related microwave induced magnetotransport phenomena.
