Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa

Subjects: subject: Literature, Modern.

description: This thesis consists of a study of the figure of the Jew in La Realidad historica de Espana, the most important of Americo Castro's works on Spanish history. My thesis is divided into three chapters. In the first chapter, I offer an overview of the evolution of Castro's historical work followed by an examination of his historical theories and key concepts and how they were received by the intellectuals of his time. The second chapter examines the presence of the Jewish population in Spain throughout history according to Castro. Since Castro's vision of the Jews is very different from that of his contemporaries and tends to be exaggerated at times, the third chapter is dedicated to the study of the cultural legacy of the Jews to Spanish culture according to his works. The conclusion to this thesis offers a brief comment on Castro's inclusion of the Hebrew population in his historical work as a possible answer to the official historical discourse of the francoist regime.

The effect of nitric oxide on the pyrolysis of ethane.
Creators: name: Esser, Joseph.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1969
Subjects: subject: Chemistry, Organic.

description: The pyrolysis of ethane inhibited by nitric oxide has been investigated at temperatures ranging from 550 to 596°C by gas-chromatographic analysis. Mixtures of C2H6-NO ranged from 1.6 to 62% NO. The rates of production of the primary products ethylene, hydrogen, methane, nitrogen, water, nitrous oxide and acetonitrile were measured under varying experimental conditions. Hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, acetaldehyde, n-butane, butene-1, cis- and trans-butene-2, and butadiene-1,3 were detected as secondary products and occasionally measured. It was found that nitric oxide decomposed extensively with a finite initial rate. The consumption of NO was determined directly and a good mass balance was obtained. The orders of the rates of formation with respect to ethane and nitric oxide were determined for all primary products at 596°C. The activation energies for the production of all primary products were determined for two different C2H6-NO mixtures in the temperature range 550 to 596°C. Except for t he production of water and nitrogen the activation energies were found to depend on the composition of the mixture. A mechanism is proposed which gives good agreement with experiment. The main points of the mechanism are: (i) Initiation takes place mainly by unimolecular decomposition of ethane. (ii) Nitric oxide scavenges ethyl radicals to form acetaldoxime which decomposes, thereby replacing in essence the reaction C2H5→C2 H4+H to a large extent by C2H5+NO→C2H 4N+OH. In this way the C2H5 radical causes the decomposition of nitric oxide. (iii) Termination takes place mainly by unimolecular decomposition of acetaldoxime to inactive products. Reactions are proposed to account for the formation of the secondary products observed. Some of the relevant rate parameters are evaluated. An interpretation is given of the rate measurements previously performed by means of pressure measurements.

On the dynamics of Cosmological Singularity theorems

Year: 2020
Subjects: Singularities, Energy Condition, Causal definitions, Closed Time-like Curves, Trapped Surface

description: One of the first Singularity theorems was given by Anmol Raychaudari, where he based it around the satisfaction of
 Energy Conditions. Eventually, the importance of these energy conditions was discovered in the process of
 theorising a singularity theorem. Later, the Pattern Singularity theorem considered these conditions to show how
 a geodesic incompleteness could arise from a model. The most important step to understanding Cosmological
 implications of Singularity theorems showed up from the 1965 Penrose theorem, where the consideration of the
 idea of a trapped surface and Cauchy Hypersurface conditions was considered to model how geodesic incompleteness
 could arise. This lead Stephen Hawking to propose the idea of a time-reversal Singularity, which has been modelled
 via a Trapped Surface forming as gravity gets stronger as a non-static expanding Universe's arrow of time is
 reversed. Then, we briefly dicuss about Closed Time-like Curves, and how they were structured by the violation of
 the Causal conditions, which we have discussed

A qualitative study of analogue and electronic escalation Visual Management Tools in maternity healthcare in England using Socio-Technical Systems theory
Creators: name: Elliott-Mainwaring, Helen
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024

description: BackgroundVisual Management (VM) is the use of visual devices to influence behaviour. Visual Management Tools (VMTs) are those used to relay information quickly for shared cognition. Existing healthcare VMT research focuses on user-experiences without comparisons with policies and reports to better situate findings within context. Maternity Services Operations Management (OM) in England is used as a case study.AimTo explore and develop a new understanding of how particular maternity escalation VMTs, Early Warning Scores (EWS); Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation (SBAR); and Sepsis tools are working in practice, particularly in the transition from paper-based analogue to electronic devices.MethodsThis was a qualitative study incorporating semi-structured interviews combined with relevant documentary review. Data collection involved 55 interviews across a variety of maternity professional groups, and a collection of 37 policies, guidelines and reports, drawing on Shorrock’s Varieties of Human Work theory. A pragmatic Human Factors and Ergonomics (HFE) approach using humancentric Socio-Technical Systems (STS) theory was used as a framework for analysis.Findings and ConclusionsThis research improves our understanding of the relationship between escalation VMTs and contemporary maternity healthcare work systems in the transition from paper-analogue to electronic devices, highlighting the significance of VMTs for efficiency (allocation of resources), shared repertoires (shared language), and for providing legitimacy to staff voices in bridging hierarchical and professional boundaries.VMTs make the invisible properties of a system visible, and in doing so they identify exemplars and areas for attention within the business system. This research has identified that an inherent tension exists in using healthcare VMTs, between management layers of accountability, and creating a manageable clinical workload for staff. The findings open a conversational space about Continuous Quality Improvements (CQI) in maternity healthcare, adding to the VMT research genre by linking user-eudaimonia with healthcare safety, making a practical contribution to HFE within STS systems-theory.
Self-monitoring efficacy for weight loss as a function of goal-setting and monitoring unit.
Creators: name: Baron, Pierre.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1978
Subjects: subject: Psychology, Behavioral.

description: A series of three experiments were conducted to investigate the efficacy of self-monitoring for inducing weight loss as a function of goal-setting and unit of behavior monitored. The purpose of the pilot experiment was to provide a preliminary view of the usefulness of restraint monitoring as compared to caloric intake monitoring for weight reduction, of the contribution of goal-setting instructions to self-monitoring effectiveness, and of the use of implicit as compared to explicit goals in combination with restraint monitoring. Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 were both designed to look at the influence of various goal levels on the effects of self-monitoring, with the difference that caloric intake and restraint served as the unit of monitoring in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 respectively. The analysis of the results indicated that restraint monitoring was as effective as caloric intake monitoring for inducing weight loss at the end of a 4-week period, that the effects of self-monitoring as a function of goal-setting varied according to the monitoring unit utilized, that the use of implicit goals in combination with restraint monitoring produced the same effects as the use of explicit goals, and that different levels of either caloric intake or restraint goal did not differentially influence self-monitoring effectiveness. The implications of these results were discussed and suggestions for follow-up research were proposed.

description: For ABR to be practical, its rate must be able to be controlled effectively even in the presence of a large round trip time (RTT). This paper compares the performance of a previously proposed fuzzy logic controller for ABR with a simple threshold based scheme in this case. The fuzzy logic scheme is found to be significantly more sensitive to increases in the RTT than the non-fuzzy scheme.

description: The perceived length of a line has been investigated on two variants of the Baldwin illusion. Other than in the classic illusion, the size of the context elements was kept constant. They were positioned symmetrically along the axis of the shaft, either within the length of the target line, right at the ends or at a certain distance from the line, leaving a gap which was varied in size. In the first experiment, employing squares as context elements, the stimulus was presented in four different orientations (horizontally, vertically, or at 30 or 45 degrees with respect to the horizontal). It was found that: (1) The perceived length L(perc)/L0 of the line as a function of the framing ratio exhibits a sharp peak when the squares are attached to the line without a gap. (2) The perceived length decreases exponentially on both sides of the maximum. (3) For vertical orientation and at an angle of 45 degrees, the perceived lengths nearly coincide, but (4) significant differences are observed between horizontal orientation and an inclination of 30 and 45 degrees, respectively. The so called dumbbell variant of the Baldwin illusion was investigated for horizontal orientation of the stimulus only. The results are discussed with respect to the assimilation/averaging theory. From a conceptual model the algebraic function L(perc)/L0=D+C*x+A*exp(-B*(abs((3*x-5)/2))) is derived and fitted to the experimental values.
TNF-alpha production by alveolar macrophages in mineral-dust-induced fibrosis.

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa

Subjects: subject: Biology, Cell.

description: Macrophages are the predominant cell type in the chronic inflammatory reaction associated with the development of mineral-dust-induced fibrosis. Macrophages are potent producers of cytokines, which have recently emerged as potentially important mediators in regulating inflammatory states. I investigated cytokine production by alveolar macrophages (AM), with a special emphasis on tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$, in experimental lung fibrosis induced by mineral dusts. Exposure to fibrigenic dusts had a bimodal effect on TNF-$\alpha$ production by AM. First, suppressed TNF-$\alpha$ production after 1 and 3 weeks of exposure. Second, after 6 weeks of exposure TNF-$\alpha$ production was high. By contrast, interleukin-1 (IL-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) production was increased in animals with inflammation with and without fibrosis. Potentiations in IL-1 and IL-6 production were associated with the early stage of the inflammatory reaction and were inversely correlated with TNF-$\alpha$ changes. Interestingly, alterations in TNF-$\alpha$ production were associated with definite shifts in the distribution size of AM suggesting that the overall production of TNF-$\alpha$ may be regulated by the specific class of AM present at sites of inflammation. To our knowledge, our study brings the first evidence for a negative modulation of TNF-$\alpha$ during inflammatory reactions leading to lung fibrosis. Furthermore, experiments with neutralizing antibody to TGF-$\beta$ suggest a role for TGF-$\beta$ in down-regulating TNF-$\alpha$ production in our system.

description: Background: Since the 1960s, the federal government has been providing or funding a selection of community-based primary healthcare (PHC) programs on First Nations reserves. A key question is whether local access to PHC can help address health inequities in First Nations on-reserve communities in British Columbia (BC). Objectives: This paper examines whether hospitalization for Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions (1) can be used as a proxy measure for the organization of PHC in First Nations reserve areas; and (2) is associated with premature mortality rates. Methods: In this descriptive correlational study, we used administrative data available through Population Data BC, including demographic and ecological information (i.e. geo-codes indicating location of residence). We used two different measures of hospitalization: rates of episodic hospital care and rates of length of stay. We correlated hospitalization rates with premature mortality rates and the level of care available in First Nations communities, which depends on a federal funding formula based upon community size and, more specifically, the level of isolation from a provincial point of care. Results: First Nations communities in BC that have local 24/7 access to PHC services have similar rates of hospitalization for ACSC to those living in urban centres. This is demonstrated by the similarities in the strengths of the correlation between premature mortality rates and rates of avoidable hospitalization for conditions treatable in a PHC setting. This is not the case for communities served by a Health Centre (weaker correlation) and for communities serviced by a Health Station or with no on-reserve point of care (no correlation). Conclusions: Improving access to PHC services in First Nations communities can be associated with a significant reduction in avoidable hospitalization and premature mortality rates. The method we tested is an important tool that could serve health care planning decisions in small communities.

description: Mimicking synaptic plasticity: A free‐standing boronate ester‐linked 2D COF thin film has been achieved with record crystalline domain size as large as ≈60 μm2 via an interfacial synthesis method. This film was integrated into an organic thin film/Si nanowire‐based field effect transistor to mimic neuronal synapses capable of learning–erasing–forgetting memory process. Despite the recent progress in the synthesis of crystalline boronate ester covalent organic frameworks (BECOFs) in powder and thin‐film through solvothermal method and on‐solid‐surface synthesis, respectively, their applications in electronics, remain less explored due to the challenges in thin‐film processability and device integration associated with the control of film thickness, layer orientation, stability and crystallinity. Moreover, although the crystalline domain sizes of the powder samples can reach micrometer scale (up to ≈1.5 μm), the reported thin‐film samples have so far rather small crystalline domains up to 100 nm. Here we demonstrate a general and efficient synthesis of crystalline two‐dimensional (2D) BECOF films composed of porphyrin macrocycles and phenyl or naphthyl linkers (named as 2D BECOF‐PP or 2D BECOF‐PN) by employing a surfactant‐monolayer‐assisted interfacial synthesis (SMAIS) on the water surface. The achieved 2D BECOF‐PP is featured as free‐standing thin film with large single‐crystalline domains up to ≈60 μm2 and tunable thickness from 6 to 16 nm. A hybrid memory device composed of 2D BECOF‐PP film on silicon nanowire‐based field‐effect transistor is demonstrated as a bio‐inspired system to mimic neuronal synapses, displaying a learning–erasing–forgetting memory process.

description: The integration of cancer biomarkers into oncology has revolutionized cancer treatment, yielding remarkable advancements in cancer therapeutics and the prognosis of cancer patients. The development of personalized medicine represents a turning point and a new paradigm in cancer management, as biomarkers enable oncologists to tailor treatments based on the unique molecular profile of each patient's tumor. In this review, we discuss the scientific milestones of cancer biomarkers and explore future possibilities to improve the management of patients with solid tumors. This progress is primarily attributed to the biological characterization of cancers, advancements in testing methodologies, elucidation of the immune microenvironment, and the ability to profile circulating tumor fractions. Integrating these insights promises to continually advance the precision oncology field, fostering better patient outcomes.

description: Background: Pregnancy is a time of significant physiological and physical change for women. In particular, it is a time at which many women are at risk of gaining excessive weight. We describe the rationale and methods of the Health in Pregnancy and Post-birth (HIPP) Study, a study which aims primarily to determine the effectiveness of a specialized health coaching (HC) intervention during pregnancy, compared to education alone, in preventing excessive gestational weight gain and postpartum weight retention 12 months post birth. A secondary aim of this study is to evaluate the mechanisms by which our HC intervention impacts on weight management both during pregnancy and post birth. Methods/Design. The randomized controlled trial will be conducted with 220 women who have a BMI > 18.5 (American IOM cut-off for normal weight), are 18 years of age or older, English speaking, no history of disordered eating or diabetes and are less than 18 weeks gestation at recruitment. Women will be randomly allocated to either a specialized HC intervention group or an Education Alone group. Our specialized HC intervention has two components: (1) one-on-one sessions with a Health Coach, and (2) two by two hour educational group sessions led by a Health Coach. Women in the Education Alone group will receive two by two hour educational group sessions with no HC components. Body Mass Index, waist circumference, and psychological factors including motivation, readiness to change, symptoms of depression and anxiety, and body dissatisfaction will be assessed at baseline (14-16 weeks gestation), and again at follow-up: 32 weeks gestation, 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months postpartum. Discussion. Our study responds to the urgent need to design effective interventions in pregnancy to prevent excessive gestational weight gain and postpartum weight retention. Our pregnancy HC intervention is novel and innovative and has been designed to be easily adopted by health professionals who work with pregnant women, such as obstetricians, midwives, allied health professionals and health psychologists.

description: In der Denkmalpflege und in Museen stellt neben der Erhaltung von Kunst- und Kulturgut aus klassischen Sammlungsgebieten auch die Aufgabe der Bewahrung von historischen Zeugnissen der Industriegeschichte und der Alltagskultur des 19. und 20. sowie inzwischen auch des 21. Jahrhunderts zunehmend größere Anforderungen. Besondere Bedeutung gewinnen dabei die ehemals neuartigen Materialien, die angefangen von den umgewandelten natürlichen Polymeren bis hin zu den vollsynthetischen Kunststoffen in alle Lebensbereiche vorgedrungen sind. Zahlreiche „High-Tech"-Geräte, die aus entsprechenden Elastomermaterialien hergestellt oder mit anderen Materialien kombiniert wurden, sind heute zu Objekten des zu schützenden historischen Kulturgutes geworden.
Gummimaterialien, auf die sich das Projekt im Besonderen konzentriert hat, sind seit dem 19. Jahrhundert in allen Bereichen der Alltagskultur, des Kunstgewerbes, der Technik, der Medizin und in der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts präsent. Besonders in den Sammlungen der Alltagskultur und in technischen Sammlungen ist Gummi allgegenwärtig. Die Materialzersetzung der hochpolymeren Werkstoffe bereitet den Konservatoren inzwischen jedoch enorme Schwierigkeiten, so dass hier auch weiterhin ein erheblicher Handlungs- und Nachholbedarf für die Restaurierungswissenschaft und –techniken besteht. Im Laufe des Projektes konnte diese Tatsache durch das große Interesse der Fachwelt an den Ergebnissen erneut festgestellt und massiv bestärkt werden.
Die Ergebnisse des Projektes werden in einer separaten Publikation, die zurzeit vorbereitet wird, veröffentlicht. Der vorliegende Bericht ist als Arbeits- und Abschlussbericht zu verstehen, der die Inhalte der Publikation in einem reduzierten Umfang darstellt. In der Publikation werden Analysenergebnisse, Materialevaluierungen und –untersuchungen sowie ausgewählte Restaurierungsberichte detailliert dargestellt. Andere Aspekte wie z.B. die Öffentlichkeitsarbeit während der Projektlaufzeit, die in der Publikation eher weniger Inhalt sein werden, sind hier ausführlicher zusammengefasst.

description: The present study was an investigation of the occupational structure of a national sport department in a public corporation. The goal was to determine whether occupational segregation was occurring, and if so what were the processes underlying this situation. Questionnaires were administered to the personnel of a public radio station (n = 23) and subsequently interviews (n = 14) were conducted with a sample of personnel from the department, including the positions of reporter, producer, executive producer and manager. Official documents, particularly those concerning employment equity from the CRTC, were also analyzed. It was found that occupational segregation is occurring in this department, both vertically and horizontally. The dual queue theory was adopted to explain the labour market dynamics operating to perpetuate differential employment opportunities for men and women in radio sport journalism. It was discovered that although highly qualified white women are currently at the top of this particular labour queue, it is mainly a result of pressure from two main factors: the fact that it is a public company regulated by the CRTC, and the move on the part of the personnel from jock journalism to investigative sport journalism. Barriers operating to perpetuate the fact that women do not consider sport journalism as a viable career opportunity include lack of access, lack of work experience, the jock environment, stereotyping, power dynamics, lack of sporting contacts and networks, lack of mentoring or training programs. Processes occurring to reduce women's access to radio sport journalism are contextualized within the wider society, and recommendations are made, including one emphasizing the necessity to conduct an industry-wide analysis of employment opportunities for men and women in the sport media.

description: This paper investigates the signal reconstruction in the IIR multirate filter banks subject to subband noises. It uses the technique of linearizing change of variables to overcome the difficulty of nonlinear matrix inequality constraints associated with the mixed H2/H-infinity optimization of IIR multirate filter banks, and generalizes the authors previous results on FIR filter banks to the design of mixed H2/H-infinity optimal IIR synthesis filter banks. A design example is presented to demonstrate the significant performance improvement of the designed multirate filter banks in the presence of subband noises. The limitation of the obtained design method is also pointed out.

description: The article is devoted to the study of criminal liability for involving minors in illegal gambling activities. The author focuses on a differentiated approach to legal assessment, taking into account the differences in the role of minors: accomplices in a crime or direct participants in gambling. The features of law enforcement practice, international standards and norms, as well as the social consequences of involving children and adolescents in illegal gambling schemes are considered. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of existing studies, identifying gaps in criminal legislation and the ineffectiveness of its application in this matter. As a result of the analysis, proposals were formulated to improve the criminal law framework, including increasing the liability of organizers of illegal games and protecting minors from their involvement. The conclusions of the article are aimed at preventing the involvement of children in the gambling business through updating legislation and improving the law enforcement system, which helps protect the rights and interests of minors in the context of developing modern challenges.

description: To assess the role of telomerase activity and telomere length in pancreatic CSCs we used different CSC enrichment methods (CD133, ALDH, sphere formation) in primary patient-derived pancreatic cancer cells. We show that CSCs have higher telomerase activity and longer telomeres than bulk tumor cells. Inhibition of telomerase activity, using genetic knockdown or pharmacological inhibitor (BIBR1532), resulted in CSC marker depletion, abrogation of sphere formation in vitro and reduced tumorigenicity in vivo. Furthermore, we identify a positive feedback loop between stemness factors (NANOG, OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4) and telomerase, which is essential for the self-renewal of CSCs. Disruption of the balance between telomerase activity and stemness factors eliminates CSCs via induction of DNA damage and apoptosis in primary patient-derived pancreatic cancer samples, opening future perspectives to avoid CSC-driven tumor relapse. In the present study, we demonstrate that telomerase regulation is critical for the “stemness” maintenance in pancreatic CSCs and examine the effects of telomerase inhibition as a potential treatment option of pancreatic cancer. This may significantly promote our understanding of PDAC tumor biology and may result in improved treatment for pancreatic cancer patients.

description: Purpose of review: This review focuses on the recent clinical development of indolamine-2,3- dioxygenase-1 (IDO-1) inhibitors. Recent findings: IDO-1 alters tryptophan metabolism in a manner enhancing T-regulatory cell activity, but pre-clinical data show that its role in tumorigenesis is context-dependent on host and tumor interaction, highlighting some challenges in understanding the molecular oncology of this enzymatic drug target. Because results from phase I/II trials of IDO-1 inhibitor monotherapy have been disappointing, current clinical trials employ IDO-1 inhibitors in combination strategies with other immunotherapy agents or with chemotherapy +/- radiation. Combinations with anti PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies are already showing promise, and related strategies are under active evaluation. Summary: While further research is needed to elucidate the precise role of IDO-1 in tumor development, its mechanisms of action appear sufficiently distinct from other immunotherapy targets to warrant inclusion in combination immunotherapy regimens, an approach where multiple clinical trials are currently underway.

description: Background Descriptor 8 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) (Directive 2008/56/EC) addresses the good environmental status with regard to pollution of marine waters by chemical contaminants. Commission decision (EU) 2017/848 lays down the criteria and methodological standards on good environmental status of marine waters. Member States, in regional or subregional cooperation, shall establish lists of relevant contaminants beside those already covered by the Water Framework Directive (WFD). To provide information on emerging contaminants in marine biota, the German Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB) has compiled data of blue mussels and eelpouts from coastal sites in the North and Baltic Seas. Substances identified by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) as of emerging concern for the marine environment have been used as a starting point. Results and conclusions The study presents data of 19 emerging flame retardants and degradation products, 40 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and three cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes (cVMS). Among the emerging flame retardants, only Dec 602 was detected in all samples of 2015. Dec 604, Cl10-antiDP, 1,5-DPMA, EH-TBB, PBEB, TBP-AE, BATE, BTBPE and HBBz were constantly <â€ limit of quantification (LOQ). Time trends were barely detected. Legacy PBDE still dominates in most samples. PFAS concentrations were usually higher in samples from the North Sea sites compared to samples from the Baltic Sea. PFOS dominated in most samples. Increasing trends over time were detected for PFNA, PFDA and PFDoDA at the Baltic Sea site and for PFDA at one North Sea site. Concentrations of the cVMS D4, D5 and D6 were below the detection limit at the ESB sampling sites. Based on the results, it should be considered to include the emerging flame retardants DP and Dec 602 and the long-chain perfluoroalkyl substances PFNA, PFDA, PFUnDA and PFDoDA in a regular monitoring in the North and Baltic Seas. © The Author(s) 2020
Authenticité et appartenance : la problématique identitaire de la prise en charge.

description: La couler d'encre autour de la notion de la prise en charge (empowerment) en travail social temoigne d'une fascination pour l'auto-determination, mais exprime egalement un malaise profond sur l'individualisme. Ce malaise, et les debats qui en resultent, debouchent vers des positions opposees et arbitraires pour avoir mal compris la problematique identitaire du sujet au sein de la relation d'aide. L'objectif de ce travail de reflexion est d'offrir une interpretation substantive de la prise en charge a partir d'une analyse de l'identite basee sur une approche dialogique et morale empruntees a Charles Taylor. Cette etude demontre que la prise en charge ne conduit pas necessairement a une identite narcissique mais s'appuie plutot sur un ideal d'authenticite qui doit etre substantialise par une communaute de biens, et non simplement par le mutualisme ou la cooperation sociale. Elle suggere que se prendre en main equivaut a jouer un role d'artiste moral en societe dans le but de rendre vivants et dynamiques les biens qui structurent sa communaute.
