description: We analyze very deep IRAC and MIPS photometry of $\sim$ 12,500 members of the 14 Myr old Double Cluster, h and $χ$ Persei, building upon on our earlier, shallower Spitzer studies (Currie et al. 2007a, 2008a). Numerous likely members show infrared (IR) excesses at 8 μm and 24 $μ$m indicative of circumstellar dust. The frequency of stars with 8 $μ$m excess is at least 2% for our entire sample, slightly lower (higher) for B/A stars (later type, lower-mass stars). Optical spectroscopy also identifies gas in about 2% of systems but with no clear trend between the presence of dust and gas. Spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling of 18 sources with detections at optical wavelengths through MIPS 24 $μm$ reveals a diverse set of disk evolutionary states, including a high fraction of transitional disks, although similar data for all disk-bearing members would provide better constraints. We combine our results with those for other young clusters to study the global evolution of dust/gas disks. For nominal cluster ages, the e-folding times ($τ_{o}$) for the frequency of warm dust and gas are 2.75 Myr and 1.75 Myr respectively. Assuming a revised set of ages for some clusters (e.g. Bell et al. 2013), these timescales increase to 5.75 and 3.75 Myr, respectively, implying a significantly longer typical protoplanetary disk lifetime. The transitional disk duration, averaged over multiple evolutionary pathways, is $\sim$ 1 Myr. Finally, 24 $μ$m excess frequencies for 4-6 M$_{\odot}$ stars appear lower than for 1-2.5 M$_{\odot}$ stars in other 10-30 Myr old clusters.

description: The objective of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of apigenin against radiation-induced gastrointestinal (GI) damages in whole-body irradiated (WBI) Swiss albino mice. Swiss albino mice were pre-treated with apigenin (15 mg/kg body wt.) intraperitoneally for six consecutive days, and on the seventh day, the mice were exposed to 7 Gy WBI. Histological findings revealed a deterioration of the crypt-villus architecture in the 7 Gy irradiated mice intestine. Conversely, apigenin pre-treatment ameliorated radiation-induced intestinal damages and restored intestinal crypt-villus architecture. Besides, apigenin modulates 7 Gy radiation-induced apoptotic markers (p53, p21, Bax, caspase-3, −9) expression in the GI tissue of WBI mice. Furthermore, apigenin prevented radiation-induced activation of NF-kB expression in the GI tissue. Therefore, the present results indicate apigenin’s radioprotective effect through modulating NF-kB mediated apoptotic signalling in the WBI intestinal tissue.

description: Critics see China’s social credit system (SCS) as a tool of surveillance and repression. Yet opinion surveys in China find considerable public support for the SCS. We explain this puzzle by focusing on citizens’ lack of knowledge regarding the repressive nature of digital surveillance in dictatorships, which can be attributed to (1) invisible and targeted repression associated with digital surveillance and (2) government propaganda and censorship further concealing its repressive potential. A field survey experiment on 750 college students in three Chinese regions shows that revealing the SCS’s repressive potential significantly reduces support for the system, but emphasizing its social-order-maintenance function does not increase support. Observational evidence from the field survey and a nationwide survey of 2,028 Chinese netizens show that the support is higher if citizens knew about the SCS through state media. Our findings highlight the role of information and framing in shaping public opinion on digital surveillance.

description: We investigated the production of charmed baryons with different isospin and strangeness content, compared to both charmed $D^0$ mesons and to the $Λ_c^+$ baryon in proton--proton collisions at LHC energies. We used the PYTHIA 8 Monte Carlo event generator with color-reconnection beyond leading color approximation and proposed methods based on event-activity classifiers to probe the source of the charm baryon enhancement. We conclude that in the considered model class, the isospin of the charmed baryon state has a strong impact on the enhancement pattern. Using the observables we propose, upcoming high-precision experimental data will be able to differentiate between mechanisms of strangeness and charm enhancement.

description: Single phonon excitations, with energies in the $1-100 \, \text{meV}$ range, are a powerful probe of light dark matter (DM). Utilizing effective field theory, we derive a framework to compute DM absorption rates into single phonons starting from general DM-electron, proton, and neutron interactions. We apply the framework to a variety of DM models: Yukawa coupled scalars, axionlike particles (ALPs) with derivative interactions, and vector DM coupling via gauge interactions or Standard Model electric and magnetic dipole moments. We find that GaAs or $\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3$ targets can set powerful constraints on a $U(1)_{B-L}$ model, and targets with electronic spin ordering are similarly sensitive to DM coupling to the electron magnetic dipole moment. Lastly, we make the code, \textsf{PhonoDark-abs} (an extension of the existing \textsf{PhonoDark} code which computes general DM-single phonon scattering rates), publicly available.

description: The evolution of the Italian system of sanctions, on the one hand, has contributed to shifting attention from the criminal "fact" to evaluating the "person" to be punished, and on the other has also led to a profound change in the very concept of a prison institution. Without any doubt, in fact, the historical-social evolution has influenced both the function of the sentence and the techniques used to punish the perpetrator. The transition from corporal punishment to prison sentences up to alternative punishments, has accelerated the historical process that saw the torture of the prisoner, physical suffering, the punishment no longer at the center of condemnation, but replaced by the humanization of punishment. However, it took years to embrace the awareness that making a condemnation human does not only mean avoiding corporal punishment, but above all reasoning on the limits and consequences that can lead to forced institutionalization without any purpose of social reintegration. In this regard I propose a modern analysis - critical and social - of the current contexts of detention, therefore, I evaluate the state of the penitentiary institutions, analyze the social function of the sentence and above all I question the actual usefulness of the prison. To this I add a detailed ethnographic study - lasted four years - on the House of Benevento and an equally meticulous comparison with the aforementioned reality and the prisons of Salerno, Eboli and Pozzuoli. I conclude the research with ample results and interesting ideas that could be resumed in the future for further analysis and comparison. The purposes of the sentence today revolve around three principles - retribution, prevention, re-socialization - and the combination of these perspectives, or the prevalence of one over the other, reflects both an internal logic of the penal system and the tendencies of the social political context. and cultural reference. With the prison reform of '75 what is highlighted is the re-educational character of the sentence, so the whole prison machine had to adapt to this logic. But was it really like that? In light of this question, I propose a reinterpretation of the 1975 reform. [edited by author]

description: Although the pairing glue for the attractive quasiparticle interaction responsible for unconventional superconductivity in heavy electron materials has been identified as the spin fluctuations that arise from their proximity to a magnetic quantum critical point, there has been no model to describe their superconducting transition at Tc that is comparable to that found by Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer (BCS) for conventional superconductors where phonons provide the pairing glue. Here we propose a phenomenological BCS-like expression for Tc in heavy electron materials, that is based on the unusual properties of the heavy electron normal state from which superconductivity emerges, and a simple model for the effective range and strength of the spin-fluctuation-induced quasiparticle interaction. We show that it provides both a physical explanation and the first quantitative understanding of the pressure-induced variation of Tc in the "hydrogen atoms" of unconventional superconductivity, CeCoIn5 and CeRhIn5, and predicts scaling behavior and a dome-like structure for Tc in all heavy electron quantum critical superconductors.

description: There are indications that pharmacological doses of ascorbate (Asc) used as an adjuvant improve the chemotherapeutic management of cancer. This favorable outcome stems from its cytotoxic effects due to prooxidative mechanisms. Since regulation of intracellular Ca2+ levels contributes to the maintenance of cell viability, we hypothesized that one of the effects of Asc includes disrupting regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. Accordingly, we determined if Asc induced intracellular Ca2+ influx through activation of pertussis sensitive Gi/o-coupled GPCR which in turn activated transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in both etoposide-resistant and -sensitive retinoblastoma (WERI-Rb1) tumor cells. Ca2+ imaging, whole-cell patch-clamping, and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were performed in parallel with measurements of RB cell survival using Trypan Blue cell dye exclusion. TRPM7 gene expression levels were similar in both cell lines whereas TRPV1, TRPM2, TRPA1, TRPC5, TRPV4, and TRPM8 gene expression levels were downregulated in the etoposide-resistant WERI-Rb1 cells. In the presence of extracellular Ca2+, 1 mM Asc induced larger intracellular Ca2+ transients in the etoposide-resistant WERI-Rb1 than in their etoposide-sensitive counterpart. With either 100 µM CPZ, 500 µM La3+, 10 mM NAC, or 100 µM 2-APB, these Ca2+ transients were markedly diminished. These inhibitors also had corresponding inhibitory effects on Asc-induced rises in whole-cell currents. Pertussis toxin (PTX) preincubation blocked rises in Ca2+ influx. Microscopic analyses showed that after 4 days of exposure to 1 mM Asc cell viability fell by nearly 100% in both RB cell lines. Taken together, one of the effects underlying oxidative mediated Asc-induced WERI-Rb1 cytotoxicity stems from its promotion of Gi/o coupled GPCR mediated increases in intracellular Ca2+ influx through TRP channels. Therefore, designing drugs targeting TRP channel modulation may be a viable approach to increase the efficacy of chemotherapeutic treatment of RB. Furthermore, Asc may be indicated as a possible supportive agent in anti-cancer therapies.

description: As graphene became one of the most important materials today, there is a renewed interest on others similar structures. One example is silicene, the silicon analogue of graphene. It share some the remarkable graphene properties, such as the Dirac cone, but presents some distinct ones, such as a pronounced structural buckling. We have investigated, through density functional based tight-binding (DFTB), as well as reactive molecular dynamics (using ReaxFF), the mechanical properties of suspended single-layer silicene. We calculated the elastic constants, analyzed the fracture patterns and edge reconstructions. We also addressed the stress distributions, unbuckling mechanisms and the fracture dependence on the temperature. We analysed the differences due to distinct edge morphologies, namely zigzag and armchair.

description: Background: Within the last years, single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SLC) emerged as an alternative to multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (MLC). SLC has advantages in cosmetic results, and postoperative pain seems lower. Overall complications are comparable between SLC and MLC. However, long-term results of randomized trials are lacking, notably to answer questions about incisional hernia rates, long-term cosmetic impact and chronic pain. Methods: A randomized trial of SLC versus MLC with a total of 193 patients between December 2009 and June 2011 was performed. The primary endpoint was postoperative pain on the first day after surgery. Secondary endpoints were conversion rate, operative time, intraoperative and postoperative morbidity, technical feasibility and hospital stay. A long-term follow-up after surgery was added. Results: Ninety-eight patients (50.8%) underwent SLC, and 95 patients (49.2%) had MLC. Pain on the first postoperative day showed no difference between the operative procedures (SLC vs. MLC, 3.4 ± 1.8 vs. 3.7 ± 1.9, respectively; p = 0.317). No significant differences were observed in operating time or the overall rate of postoperative complications (4.1% vs. 3.2%; p = 0.731). SLC exhibited better cosmetic results in the short term. In the long term, after a mean of 70.4 months, there were no differences in incisional hernia rate, cosmetic results or pain at the incision between the two groups. Conclusions: Taking into account a follow-up rate of 68%, the early postoperative advantages of SLC in relation to cosmetic appearance and pain did not persist in the long term. In the present trial, there was no difference in incisional hernia rates between SLC and MLC, but the sample size is too small for a final conclusion regarding hernia rates.

description: The current thesis consists of a literature review, an empirical paper, and a critical appraisal of the process undertaken. The systematic literature review presented thematically the specific areas of limb difference and rehabilitation that have been studied through interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). The process followed was similar to that of thematic analysis and four themes were identified: 1) The process of learning, supporting. and alternative ways to receiving help; 2) Physical and psychological adjustment to limb difference; 3) Experiences of using prosthetics; and 4) Experiences of romantic relationships and sexuality. The adherence of the presented studies to IPA guidelines was assessed using a qualitative tool specifically designed for the quality appraisal of IPA studies and studies were given an overall score of ‘Poor’, ‘Acceptable’ or ‘Good’. The findings highlight the experiences of living with limb difference, the support available and the psychological entailments around adjustment, prosthesis use and relationships. Clinical Implications are discussed in the context of improving the rehabilitation offered by psychologists and other professionals. The appraisal of IPA adherence paves the way to completing IPA research of high standard. The empirical paper explored the experiences of receiving psychological support following limb loss. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five participants and data was analysed using IPA. Four themes were generated by the data analysis: 1) The need for psychological intervention - denial and acceptance; 2) ‘Safe space’ - being valued, heard, and validated; 3) The importance of focus, transparency, and specialist knowledge; and 4) The most helpful techniques and approaches. Clinical implications focused on the ways psychological support is provided. Finally, the critical appraisal offered an overview of practical, methodological, ethical, and personal reflections on the research process undertaken. The importance of reflexivity and the intricate relationship between being a clinician and a researcher were considered.

description: In metal/oxide heterostructures, rich chemical, electronic, magnetic and mechanical properties can emerge from interfacial chemistry and structure. The possibility to dynamically control interface characteristics with an electric field paves the way towards voltage control of these properties in solid-state devices. Here we show that electrical switching of the interfacial oxidation state allows for voltage control of magnetic properties to an extent never before achieved through conventional magnetoelectric coupling mechanisms. We directly observe, for the first time, in situ voltage driven O$^{2-}$ migration in a Co/metal-oxide bilayer, which we use to toggle the interfacial magnetic anisotropy energy by >0.6 erg/cm$^2$. We exploit the thermally-activated nature of ion migration to dramatically increase the switching efficiency and to demonstrate reversible patterning of magnetic properties through local activation of ionic migration. These results suggest a path towards voltage-programmable materials based on solid-state switching of interface oxygen chemistry.

description: The potential strategy to prevent bacterial pathogenicity is disabling quorum sensing circuits with structural mimicking molecules. Here, we analyzed a synthetic molecule isoeugenol, for inhibition of quorum sensing regulated phenotype and biofilm formation. Isoeugenol was an effective inhibitor, i.e., more than 70% of virulence factors were inhibited including pyocyanin, rhamnolipid, exopolysaccharide, swarming motility and biofilm formation. Interestingly, these quorum sensing regulated phenotypes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 were inhibited without affecting the planktonic cells. Moreover, the presence of isoeugenol exhibited more than 70% inhibition of biofilm formation through inhibition of the quorum sensing systems. Furthermore, docking studies suggest that isoeugenol bound to the quorum sensor regulators such as LasI, LasR PqsE and SidA with considerable binding interactions. Our results demonstrate the utility of isoeugenol as a blocker of quorum sensing, which will be functioning as an antivirulence compound.

description: A variety of different graphene plasmonic structures and devices have been proposed and demonstrated experimentally. Plasmon modes in graphene microstructures interact strongly via the depolarization fields. An accurate quantitative description of the coupling between plasmon modes is required for designing and understanding complex plasmonic devices. Drawing inspiration from microphotonics, we present a coupled-mode theory for graphene plasmonics in which the plasmon eigenmodes of a coupled system are expressed in terms of the plasmon eigenmodes of its uncoupled sub-systems. The coupled-mode theory enables accurate computation of the coupling between the plasmon modes and of the resulting dynamics. We compare theory with experiments performed on the plasmon modes in coupled arrays of graphene strips. In experiments, we tune the coupling by changing the spacing between the graphene strips in the array. Our results show that the coupling parameters obtained from the coupled-mode theory and the plasmon frequency changes resulting from this coupling agree very well with experiments. The work presented here provides a framework for designing and understanding coupled graphene plasmonic structures.

description: Purpose Voriconazole is a therapeutically challenging antifungal drug associated with high interindividual pharmacokinetic variability. As a prerequisite to performing clinical trials using the minimally-invasive sampling technique microdialysis, a comprehensive in vitro microdialysis characterization of voriconazole (VRC) and its potentially toxic N-oxide metabolite (NO) was performed. Methods The feasibility of simultaneous microdialysis of VRC and NO was explored in vitro by investigating the relative recovery (RR) of both compounds in the absence and presence of the other. The dependency of RR on compound combination, concentration, microdialysis catheter and study day was evaluated and quantified by linear mixed-effects modeling. Results Median RR of VRC and NO during individual microdialysis were high (87.6% and 91.1%). During simultaneous microdialysis of VRC and NO, median RR did not change (87.9% and 91.1%). The linear mixed-effects model confirmed the absence of significant differences between RR of VRC and NO during individual and simultaneous microdialysis as well as between the two compounds (p > 0.05). No concentration dependency of RR was found (p = 0.284). The study day was the main source of variability (46.3%) while the microdialysis catheter only had a minor effect (4.33%). VRC retrodialysis proved feasible as catheter calibration for both compounds. Conclusion These in vitro microdialysis results encourage the application of microdialysis in clinical trials to assess target-site concentrations of VRC and NO. This can support the generation of a coherent understanding of VRC pharmacokinetics and its sources of variability. Ultimately, a better understanding of human VRC pharmacokinetics might contribute to the development of personalized dosing strategies.

description: The low-lying spectra including the first few excited positive and negative parity bands of some heavy even-even nuclei from the rare earth and actinide mass regions are investigated within the framework of the symplectic Interacting Vector Boson Model with Sp(12,$R$) dynamical symmetry group. Symplectic dynamical symmetries allow the change of the number of excitation quanta or phonons building the collective states providing for larger representation spaces and richer subalgebraic structures to incorporate more complex nuclear spectra. The theoretical predictions for the energy levels and the electromagnetic transitions between the collective states of the ground state band and $K^π=0^{-}$ band are compared with experiment and some other collective models incorporating octupole and/or dipole degrees of freedom. The energy staggering which is a sensitive indicator of the octupole correlations in the even-even nuclei is also calculated and compared with experiment. The results obtained for the energy levels, energy staggering and transition strengths reveal the relevance of the used dynamical symmetry of the model for the simultaneous description of both positive and negative parity low-lying collective bands.

description: The use of antidiabetic agents which control glycemic levels in the blood and simultaneously inhibit oxidative stress is an important strategy in the prevention of Diabetes Mellitus and its complications. In our previous study, malabaricone C (3) and its dimer, giganteone A (5) exhibited significant DPPH free radical scavenging activities which were lower than the activity of the positive control, ascorbic acid. These compounds were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activities at different concentrations (0.02–2.5 mM) in the present study. Compounds 3 (IC50 59.61 µM) and 5 (IC50 39.52 µM) were identified as active alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, each respectively being 24 and 37 folds more potent than the standard inhibitor, acarbose. Based on the molecular docking studies, compounds 3 and 5 docked into the active site of the α-glucosidase enzyme, forming mainly hydrogen bonds in the active site.

description: Background: Minimally invasive techniques have increasingly found their way into liver surgery in recent years. A multitude of mostly retrospective analyses suggests several advantages of laparoscopic over open liver surgery. Due to the speed and variety of simultaneous technical and strategic developments, it is difficult to maintain an overview of the current status and perspectives in laparoscopic liver surgery. Purpose: This review highlights up-to-date aspects in laparoscopic liver surgery. We discuss established indications with regard to their development over time as well as continuing limitations of applied techniques. We give an assessment based on the current literature and according to our own center experiences, not least with regard to a highly topical cost discussion. Conclusions: While in the beginning mainly benign tumors were laparoscopically operated on, liver metastasis and hepatocellular carcinoma are now among the most frequent indications. Technical limitations remain and should be evaluated with the overall aim not to endanger quality standards in open surgery. Financial aspects cannot be neglected with the necessity of cost-covering reimbursement.
The targum (1928:Feb. 4 - 1928:Feb. 28)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1928

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Extended loneliness. When hyperconnectivity makes us feel alone

description: In this paper, I analyse a specific kind of loneliness that can be experienced in the networked life, namely “extended loneliness”. I claim that loneliness—conceived of as stemming from a lack of satisfying relationships to others—can arise from an abundance of connections in the online sphere. Extended loneliness, in these cases, does not result from a lack of connections to other people. On the contrary, it consists in the complex affective experience of both lacking and longing for meaningful relationships while being connected to many people online. The recursive interaction with a digital assistant in a smart flat is my key example for defining the contours of this specific kind of loneliness that emerges when hyperconnectivity becomes pervasive in the user’s daily-life. Drawing on Sherry Turkle’s work and employing the conceptual framework of the extended mind, I analyse the specific characteristics of extended loneliness and explore its phenomenology.
Chapter 34 - Every Moment Counts: Synchrophasors for Distribution Networks with Variable Resources

description: Historically, with mostly radial power distribution and one-way power flow, it was only necessary to evaluate the envelope of design conditions, e.g., peak loads or fault currents, rather than continually observe the operating state. But the growth of distributed energy resources introduces variability, uncertainty, and opportunities to recruit diverse resources for grid services. This chapter addresses how the direct measurement of voltage phase angle might enable new strategies for managing distribution networks with diverse, active components.

description: Carbon $1s$ core-hole excitation of the molecular anion C$_2^-$ has been experimentally studied at high resolution by employing the photon-ion merged-beams technique at a synchrotron light source. The experimental cross section for photo--double-detachment shows a pronounced vibrational structure associated with $1σ_u\to3σ_g$ and $1σ_g \to 1π_u$ core excitations of the C$_2^-$ ground level and first excited level, respectively. A detailed Franck-Condon analysis reveals a strong contraction of the C$_2^-$ molecular anion by 0.2~Å upon this core photoexcitation. The associated change of the molecule's moment of inertia leads to a noticeable rotational broadening of the observed vibrational spectral features. This broadening is accounted for in the present analysis which provides the spectroscopic parameters of the C$_2^-$ $1σ_u^{-1}\,3σ_g^2\;{^2}Σ_u^+$ and $1σ_g^{-1}\,3σ_g^2\;{^2}Σ_g^+$ core-excited levels.

description: Sophora flavescens Ait. has been utilized as an anticarcinogen, antibacterial and insecticide. Two new prenylflavonoids, Sophoflavonoid A (1) and Sophoflavonoid B (2), together with four known analogues were isolated from the root bark of S. flavescens. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by the interpretation of spectroscopic data and chemical evidence. Their absolute configurations were determined by ECD analysis. The inhibitory effects of compounds 1–6 against three lung carcinoma cells were determined using the MTT assay. The results revealed that compound 3 displayed strong cytotoxic effect against H460 cell line (IC50, 4.67 μM), while compounds 1, 4–6 exhibited significant inhibitory effects against three tumor cells. Therefore, this study suggests that the isopentenyl flavonoid-rich products of S. flavescens, including the new compounds, could be valuable candidates for the development of pharmaceuticals in the prevention and treatment for tumors.
