description: Objectives: To assess association between 30 day readmission rate and treatment received after total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) discharge (rivaroxaban vs. warfarin or non-anticoagulant). To subsequently model impact of increasing rivaroxaban use on the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) penalty, which was imposed on hospitals with excess 30 day readmissions after hospitalizations for selected conditions, including THA/TKA. Methods: The US Truven Health MarketScan Medicare Supplemental database from 1 July 2010 to 30 April 2015 was used. A retrospective claims analysis was conducted to assess the risk of all-cause 30 day readmission among patients receiving either rivaroxaban or warfarin, or no anticoagulation following THA/TKA discharge. Simulations were performed to estimate the impact of post-discharge treatment on the HRRP penalty. Results: The risk-adjusted all-cause 30 day readmission rates were 1.21% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 0.94%–1.49%), 1.41% (95% CI: 1.19%–1.58%) and 1.95% (95% CI: 1.81%–2.11%) for rivaroxaban, warfarin and non-anticoagulant cohorts, respectively. Using these rates, simulations illustrated that when switching patients from warfarin or non-anticoagulant to rivaroxaban, annual penalty per hospital would be reduced up to 67% or 88%, respectively. Conclusions: Rivaroxaban treatment post-THA/TKA discharge reduced the risk of 30 day readmission compared to non-anticoagulants. Simulations illustrated that increasing rivaroxaban use could decrease the HRRP penalty.

обновление оперного жанра
традиции авангарда

description: В статье рассмотрены важнейшие принципы оперного творчества ведущих американских композиторов Джона Кейджа, Филипа Гласса, Стивена Райха, Мередит Монк. Их произведения стали яркими и уникальными явлениями мировой музыкально-театральной культуры и вобрали в себя черты традиционных и новых художественных практик, получивших развитие в 1970–2000-е годы. Многообразие стилевых исканий в оперном театре обозначенного периода сложно свести к единому знаменателю. В связи с тенденциями развития современного музыкально-театрального искусства скорее приходится говорить о своеобразной стилевой полифонии. Тем не менее, можно отметить ряд магистральных линий, которые оказали влияние на формирование оперной эстетики в творчестве современных композиторов США – это авангард в его американском преломлении с характерным креном в сторону экспериментализма и минимализм. Новые для оперного жанра художественные принципы формировались в контексте авангардного бума 1970-х гг., когда на процесс становления музыкального театра оказывали воздействие художественные принципы, получившие ранее развитие в смежных видах искусств. Плодотворное сотрудничество и творческий взаимообмен композиторов, театральных режиссеров-эксперименталистов, художников и видео-художников, придерживающихся авангардной идеологии, способствовали внедрению в оперный театр новых методов работы с музыкальным материалом, драматургических и композиционных закономерностей. Рассмотренные в данной статье сочинения демонстрируют новую эстетику оперного спектакля, отличительными свойствами которого являются культивирование принципа прямого взаимодействия между искусством и реальностью, акцентирование особой роли зрителя в создании смыслового поля сочинения, понимание творческого акта как процесса исследования границ искусства и их раздвижения.

description: The extent of future climate change is largely a policy choice. We illuminate this choice with climate policy curves (CPCs), which link climate policies to subsequent global temperatures. The estimated downward sloping CPCs highlight the key trade-off between initial policy ambition, expressed via an overall effective carbon price, and the subsequent policy burden left for future generations. We also demonstrate how different CPCs can illustrate the range of climate policy paths towards attaining the Paris Agreement temperature goals. Based on the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) integrated-assessment model scenarios, we estimate an implicit CPC, which provides a high-level summary of assumptions underlying the IPCC’s assessment about climate policy trade-offs. We show that by virtue of their reductionism, CPCs serve as a useful model diagnostic and communication tool for climate policy discussions. Climate Policy Curves (CPCs) are a simple, new heuristic device for quantifying projected climate outcomes of different climate policies.CPCs can elucidate the various uncertainties surrounding climate policies and crystalize the importance of comparing climate policy today with its future path.CPCs can serve as a model diagnostic and communication tool for climate policy discussions by helping to understand and evaluate policy implications of alternative climate-economy models.

description: Developing avoidance or mitigation strategies of runaway electrons (RE) in magnetic confinement fusion (MCF) plasmas is of crucial importance for the safe operation of ITER. In order to develop these strategies, an accurate diagnostic capability that allows good estimates of the RE distribution function in these plasmas is needed. Synchrotron radiation (SR) of RE in MCF, besides of being one of the main damping mechanisms for RE in the high energy relativistic regime, is routinely used in current MCF experiments to infer the parameters of RE energy and pitch angle distribution functions. In the present paper we address the long standing question about what are the relationships between different RE distribution functions and their corresponding synchrotron emission simultaneously including: full-orbit effects, information of the spectral and angular distribution of SR of each electron, and basic geometric optics of a camera. We study the spatial distribution of the SR on the poloidal plane, and the statistical properties of the expected value of the synchrotron spectra of runaway electrons. We observe a strong dependence of the synchrotron emission measured by the camera on the pitch angle distribution of RE, namely we find that crescent shapes of the spatial distribution of the SR as measured by the camera relate to RE distributions with small pitch angles, while ellipse shapes relate to distributions of runaways with larger the pitch angles. A weak dependence of the synchrotron emission measured by the camera with the RE energy, value of the q-profile at the edge, and the chosen range of wavelengths is observed. Furthermore, we find that oversimplifying the angular dependence of the SR changes the shape of the synchrotron spectra, and overestimates its amplitude by approximately 20 times for avalanching RE and by approximately 60 times for mono-energetic distributions of runaways.

description: В статье исследуется проблема воздействия аудиотехнологий на музыкальное искусство. Именно с радио был связан ряд открытий в сфере работы со звуком, повлиявших на развитие экспериментализма. Целый ряд выдающихся композиторов ХХ века внесли в этот процесс свой неоценимый вклад, став создателями большого числа образцов опер, написанных специально для радио. Интерес к этому жанру проявили П. Хиндемит, Б. Бриттен, П. Шеффер, С. Арье, Л. Берио, Г. Клебе, Л. Ноно, В. Джаннини, Б. Мартину, Н. Рота, Б. А. Циммерман, Б. Мадерна и др. В их сочинениях был выработан особый формат, позволяющий говорить о новой разновидности жанра – радиоопере. К ее особым чертам автор статьи относит камерность, простоту фабулы, опору на событийную хроникальность и принцип репортажности, преобладание диалоговой структуры текстов с опорой на разговорный стиль речи, наличие дикторских комментариев поясняющего типа, отсутствие развернутых характеристик героев, расширение музыкального материала шумами, звуками среды, многообразие форм работы с голосом – от пения и мелодизированной декламации, говора, шепота и крика до его преобразований посредством электронно-компьютерных устройств. Процесс этот достиг своей кульминации к шестидесятым годам. Однако стремительное развитие альтернативных аудио-визуальных технологий привело к рождению мифа о постепенном умирании радиооперы, уступающей место экранным версиям оперного жанра. На основе анализа современной композиторской практики в статье доказывается его неосновательность. С точки зрения автора, проникновение цифровых технологий в радийную сферу повлияло на нее не в меньшей степени, вывело на новый уровень качество звука и возможности звукосинтеза, столь значимые для радиотеатра. Это свидетельство того, что радиотехнологии не устаревают, а совершенствуются в соответствии с техническим потенциалом современности, открывая перед жанром радиооперы новые возможности, что доказывается на основе анализа радиоопер Э. Кон и Р. Сакстона.

description: Using a two-band double-exchange model with Jahn-Teller lattice distortions and super-exchange interactions, supplemented by quenched disorder, at electron density $n=0.65$, we explicitly demonstrate the coexistence of the $n$ = 1/2-type ($π, π$) charge-ordered and the ferromagnetic nanoclusters above the ferromagnetic transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$ in colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganites. The resistivity increases due to the enhancement of the volume fraction of the charge-ordered and the ferromagnetic nanoclusters with decreasing the temperature down to $T_{\rm c}$. The ferromagnetic nanoclusters start to grow and merge, and the volume fraction of the charge-ordered nanoclusters decreases below $T_{\rm c}$, leading to the sharp drop in the resistivity. By applying a small external magnetic field $h$, we show that the resistivity above $T_{\rm c}$ increases, as compared with the case when $h=0$, a fact which further confirms the coexistence of the charge-ordered and the ferromagnetic nanoclusters. In addition, we show that the volume fraction of the charge-ordered nanoclusters decreases with increasing the bandwidth and consequently the resistivity hump diminishes for large bandwidth manganites, in good qualitative agreement with experiments. The obtained insights from our calculations provide a complete pathway to understand the phase competition in CMR manganites.

мюзикл
жанрово-стилевые взаимодействия
«рок-оперность»
«мюзикальность»

description: Публикуемая статья посвящена синтезирующим процессам в легкожанровом музыкальном театре 2000–2010-х годов, характеризуемым на примере жанра мюзикла. По мнению исследователя, к числу репрезентативных явлений, отражающих динамику развития данного жанра в современную эпоху, принадлежит творчество Эндрю Ллойда-Уэббера. Его новейший музыкально-театральный проект «Школа рока» (2015), сохраняя преемственные связи с широко известными уэбберовскими произведениями последней трети ХХ века, запечатлевает своего рода «концептуальный сдвиг» в многообразных «диалогах» мюзикла и рок-оперы. Этому благоприятствует ярко выраженная постмодернистская ориентация «Школы рока», не только обусловливающая «внешнюю» сюжетно-драматургическую специфику, но и предопределяющая бесспорное главенство рок-стилистики в «мюзикальном» художественном пространстве этого проекта. Весьма показательны, в частности, целенаправленно утверждаемая на протяжении спектакля позитивная оценка рок-музицирования как творческой деятельности «комплементарная» сопряженность важнейших идиом попи рок-музыки, демонстрируемая в кульминационных сценах рассматриваемого мюзикла, аналогичная по сути «интеграция» стилей в «автоцитатах» из уэбберовских произведений 1970– 1980-х годов и т. д. Приводимые исследователем аналитические наблюдения позволяют констатировать, что феномен «рок-мюзикла» в современной интерпретации Э. Ллойда-Уэббера бесспорно соотносится с магистральными тенденциями, присущими легкожанровому музыкальному театру эпохи постмодерна. Первая из этих тенденций, условно именуемая «рок-оперностью», прежде всего подразумевает стремление к «тотальной полистилистичности» – охвату максимально широкого «диапазона» жанрово-стилевых элементов, адаптируемых соответственно уровню восприятия широкой аудитории. «Рок-оперность» характеризуется также специфической образно-эмоциональной атмосферой, порождающей определённый темпоритмический модус («драйв») музыкального спектакля. Другая тенденция, называемая в статье «мюзикальностью», сопряжена с установкой на формирование «актуального» сценического облика воссоздаваемых музыкально-театральных проектов, предельную технологическую оснащенность аудиои видеорядов конкретной режиссёрской «версии», и др. По мнению исследователя, наблюдаемые сегодня «интегративные» взаимодействия «рок-оперности» и «мюзикальности» в перспективе могут способствовать появлению масштабных «рок-оперно-мюзикальных» сочинений, зримо олицетворяющих собой «универсальный художественный синтез» эпохи постмодерна.

description: We apply two variations of the principle of Minimum Cross Entropy (the Kullback information measure) to fit parameterized probability density models to observed data densities. For an array beamforming problem with P incident narrowband point sources, N > P sensors, and colored noise, both approaches yield eigenvector fitting methods similar to that of the MUSIC algorithm[1]. Furthermore, the corresponding cross-entropies are related to the MDL model order selection criterion[2].

description: We report the discovery of a transient equivalent hydrogen column density with an absorption edge at ~3.8 kiloelectron volts in the spectrum of the prompt x-ray emission of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 990705. This feature can be satisfactorily modeled with a photoelectric absorption by a medium located at a redshift of ~0.86 and with an iron abundance of ~75 times the solar one. The transient behavior is attributed to the strong ionization produced in the circumburst medium by the GRB photons. The high iron abundance points to the existence of a burst environment enriched by a supernova along the line of sight. The supernova explosion is estimated to have occurred about 10 years before the burst. Our results agree with models in which GRBs originate from the collapse of very massive stars and are preceded by a supernova event

description: Objective: The accuracy of prediction of ovulation by cycle apps and published calendar methods was determined by comparing to true probability of ovulation. Methods: A total of 949 volunteers collected urine samples for one entire menstrual cycle. Luteinizing hormone was measured to assign surge day, enabling probability of ovulation to be determined across different cycle lengths. Cycle-tracking apps were downloaded. As none provided their methodology, four published calendar-based methods were also examined: standard days, rhythm, alternative rhythm and simple calendar method. The volunteer ovulation data was applied to the app/calendar methods to determine their accuracy. Results: Mean cycle length was 28 days (range: 23–35); 34% of women believed they had a 28-day cycle, but only 15% did. No LH surge was seen for 99 women. Most likely day of ovulation for a 28-day cycle was day 16 (21%). Accuracy of ovulation prediction was no better than 21% by the apps. The standard days and rhythm methods were most likely to predict ovulation (70% and 89%, respectively) but had very low accuracy. Conclusions: Ovulation day varies considerably for any given menstrual cycle length, thus it is not possible for calendar/app methods that use cycle-length information alone to accurately predict the day of ovulation.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The northern edge of Georges Bank supports a highly productive and diverse benthic community. Our study area is the gravel pavement on the Canadian side of Georges Bank in water depths of 72-90 m. This area has been surveyed periodically by Canadian and U.S. researchers because of its importance as fish and scallop habitat. On joint cruises from 1994 to 2005, the substrate has been characterized with side-scan and single-beam sonar. Site-specific sampling has been conducted with photo/video transects, and benthic samplers. Much of the gravel habitat over thousands of square kilometers is disturbed by bottom fishing gear and exhibits relatively low biodiversity. However, in some small areas the gravel has a biogenic covering of colonial epifauna and exhibits high benthic diversity. In one 14 km2 area, dubbed the “mussel bed”, the substrate is almost completely covered with hydroid and bryozoan colonies. This epifaunal habitat contains the highest numerical abundance, biomass, and species richness of benthic megafauna that we have observed on Georges Bank. High benthic productivity in this area is fueled by upwelled waters from the Gulf of Maine. The shelf-edge front moves over the northern edge of the bank such that the water column is well mixed in winter and stratified in summer. The gravel substrate is undisturbed by winter storms, thus providing a stable substrate for mussel and epifaunal growth. This benthic community is vulnerable to potential oil and gas development, bottom-fishing disturbance, and to colonization by invasive species.

description: Азон Нуртинович Фаттах (1922–2013) – выдающийся композитор, пианист, Заслуженный деятель искусств Татарской АССР, автор многочисленных песен. К сожалению, в среде современной слушательской аудитории его имя и музыка малоизвестны. Настоящая статья посвящена партитуре оперы Азона Фаттаха «Джамиля», сохранившейся фрагментарно: до настоящих дней дошли лишь некоторые отрывки из оперы – в нескольких вариантах, частично эскизных, частично законченных (полной завершенной и изданной партитуры сочинения нет). В данной опере масштабно предстают и обобщаются черты композиторского стиля А. Фаттаха. Целью настоящей статьи является разноплановое исследование сохранившегося музыкального материала, что демонстрирует ее актуальность в контексте изучения наследия композитора. Последовательно рассматриваются различные составляющие оперы, прежде всего, выбор сюжета (в свете центральной этической идеи произведения). Здесь органично сплетаются темы любви и всепобеждающей силы искусства, а также восточная тема. Автор избирает номерную структуру оперы и завершает несколько первых, полностью оркестрованных номеров, из которых одни предстают в виде клавира, а другие зафиксированы только в виде отдельных музыкальных тем. В центре внимания работы – аналитическое изучение и сравнение Пролога и Вступления. Партитуры номеров продемонстрировали мастерское владение оркестровым письмом и полифонией, чуткий тембровый слух автора, разнообразие и нетривиальность его мелодического стиля.

description: Science is a constructed narrative of the natural world based on information gathering and its subsequent analysis. In this essay, we develop a novel approach to the epistemic foundations of the scientific narrative, as based on our experiential interactions with the natural world. We first review some of the basic aspects of both Bayesian statistics and Shannon's information theory as applied to the construction of meaningful conceptualization of the natural world. This conceptualization is rendered through the maps we construct of the world based on our limited knowledge of reality. We propose a path from experience to information and physics based on the notion that information is experience that induces change in an Epistemic Agent (EA): the change may be local and focused to a minor aspect of reality or it may be broad and worldview-changing. We illustrate our approach through an analysis of a measure of spatial complexity proposed by one of us called Configuration Entropy (CE), and establish a link between experience at the cognitive level and information content, showing that the CE is a quantitative measure of how much information in spatial-complexity the external world hides from an EA.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A geochemical study was conducted in Pahang waters of South China Sea with samples collected in pre-monsoon and post monsoon seasons. Surface sediments collected from 48 stations were analyzed for the heavy metals concentration (Pb, Cu, Mn and Zn) using the sensitive inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In general, the concentration of studied metals in both seasons show considerable variation spatially, which largely appears to be controlled by natural processes. This was proved by their enrichment factors (EF) which have values significantly about unity and are considered to be dominantly terigenous in origin. In this study, it is interesting to note that the concentration of all studied metals are relatively high in the pre monsoon season and become much lower after the post monsoon season. In the pre monsoon season, Pb has average value of 24.5 µg/g dry weight and meanwhile Cu with concentration of 19.2 µg/g dry weights. However, during post monsoon season, the concentrations of Pb and Cu were significant decreased to 13.1 µg/g dry weight, 6.31 µg/g dry weight, respectively. This finding indicates that the annual seasonal changes that occur in Pahang waters of South China Sea play an important role in regulating the concentrations of heavy metals.

description: We show that the amplitude of the second acoustic peak in the newly released BOOMERANG-98 and MAXIMA-I data is compatible with the standard primordial nucleosynthesis and with the locally broken-scale-invariant matter power spectrum suggested by recent measurements of the power spectrum in the range $20 - 200$ Mpc. If the slope of matter density perturbations on large scales is $n \approx 1$, the Hubble constant is $0.5< h < 0.75$, and r.m.s. mass fluctuations at 8 Mpc are $0.65 \le σ_8 \le 0.75$, then for a Universe approximately 14 Gyr old our best fit within the nucleosynthesis bound $Ω_Bh^2= 0.019 \pm 0.0024$ requires $0.3 \le Ω_m \le 0.5$. Cluster abundances further constraint the matter density to be $Ω_m \approx 0.3$. The CMB data alone are not able to determine the detailed form of the matter power spectrum in the range $0.03

description: Fyn tyrosine kinase inhibitors are considered potential therapeutic agents for a variety of human cancers. Furthermore, the involvement of Fyn kinase in signalling pathways that lead to severe pathologies, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, has also been demonstrated. In this study, starting from 3-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylamino)-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one (VS6), a hit compound that showed a micromolar inhibition of Fyn (IC50 = 4.8 μM), we computationally investigated the binding interactions of the 3-amino-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one scaffold and started a preliminary hit to lead optimisation. This analysis led us to confirm the hypothesised binding mode of VS6 and to identify a new derivative that is about 6-fold more active than VS6 (compound 3, IC50 = 0.76 μM).

description: We present a combined numerical and experimental study of Andreev scattering from quantum turbulence in superfluid $^3$He-B at ultralow temperatures. We simulate the evolution of moderately dense, three-dimensional, quasiclassical vortex tangles and the Andreev reflection of thermal quasiparticle excitations by these tangles. This numerical simulation enables us to generate the two-dimensional map of local Andreev reflections for excitations incident on one of the faces of a cubic computational domain, and to calculate the total coefficient of Andreev reflection as a function of the vortex line density. Our numerical simulation is then compared with the experimental measurements probing quantum turbulence generated by a vibrating grid. We also address the question of whether the quasiclassical and ultraquantum regimes of quantum turbulence can be distinguished by their respective total Andreev reflectivities. We discuss the screening mechanisms which may strongly affect the total Andreev reflectivity of dense vortex tangles. Finally, we present combined numerical-experimental results for fluctuations of the Andreev reflection from a quasiclassical turbulent tangle and demonstrate that the spectral properties of the Andreev reflection reveal the nature and properties of quantum turbulence.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The European project Sources, consumer exposure and risks of organotin contamination in seafood (OT-SAFE, contract number QLK1-CT-2001-01437) was aimed to establish the risk of the anti-fouling agent TBT (tributyltin) for the European seafood consumer. Although the use of TBT is now restricted, TBT can still be found in the marine environment and, as a consequence, in seafood for human consumption. Seafood samples were taken in eleven European countries. The selection of samples was according to consumption and expected TBT levels. The consumption data were compiled from food consumption surveys or, lacking these, more crude data such as market data and catches and landings data. The expected TBT levels were derived from the (limited) existing data on TBT in seafood and from ecotoxicological studies. In order to guarantee the quality of the data, sample collection was based upon ICES protocols and TBT concentrations were determined to the highest analytical standard using a certified reference material BCR-477 (tin species in mussel tissue). Based on the analyses and the consumption data, intake levels were calculated and compared with the known TDI (tolerable daily intake). To be at risk of exceeding the TDI for TBT as a result of seafood consumption, one has to be a high consumer of seafood and one has to consume seafood containing higher-than-average concentrations of TBT. Therefore, there must be some concern about sardines in Greece and shrimp in Belgium, The Netherlands and Germany; molluscs are a cause for concern in Portugal and, especially, Italy.

description: The eyes reveal important social messages, such as emotions and whether a person is aroused and interested or bored and fatigued. A growing body of research has also shown that individuals with large pupils are generally evaluated positively by observers, while those with small pupils are perceived negatively. Here, we examined whether observed pupil size influences approach-avoidance tendencies. Participants performed an Approach-Avoidance Task using faces with large and small pupil sizes. Results showed that pupil size influences the accuracy of arm movements. Specifically, individuals were less prone to approach a face with small pupils than a face with large pupils. Conversely, participants were less prone to avoid a face with large pupils than a face with small pupils. Collectively, these findings suggest that perceivers attend to a facial cue – pupil size – when interacting with others.
Separating Simultaneous Seismic Sources using Robust Inversion of Radon and Migration Operators

description: The advent of high density 3D wide azimuth survey configurations has greatly increased the cost of seismic acquisition. Simultaneous source acquisition presents an opportunity to decrease costs by reducing the survey time. Source time delays are typically long enough for seismic reflection energy to decay to negligible levels before firing another source. Simultaneous source acquisition abandons this minimum time restriction and allows interference between seismic sources to compress the survey time. Seismic data processing methods must address the interference introduced by simultaneous overlapping sources. Simultaneous source data are characterized by high amplitude interference artefacts that may be stronger than the primary signal. These large amplitudes are due to the time delay between sources and the rapid decay of seismic energy with arrival time. Therefore, source interference will appear as outliers in denoising algorithms that make use of a Radon transform. This will reduce the accuracy of Radon transform de-noising especially for weak signals. Formulating the Radon transform as an inverse problem with an L1 misfit makes it robust to outliers caused by source interference. This provides the ability to attenuate strong source interference while preserving weak underlying signal. In order to improve coherent signal focusing, an apex shifted hyperbolic Radon transform (ASHRT) is used to remove source interferences. ASHRT transform basis functions are tailored to match the travel time hyperbolas of reflections in common receiver gathers. However, the ASHRT transform has a high computational cost due to the extension of the model dimensions by scanning for apex locations. By reformulating the ASHRT operator using a Stolt migration/demigration kernel that exploits the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), the computational efficiency of the operator is drastically improved.
