Relationships Between Perceived Risk, Objective Risk and Adherence to Screening Measures in Women at High-Risk for Breast Cancer
Creators: name: Spector, Denise
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2002

description: Breast cancer is a significant public health problem since it affects 1 out of every 8 women in the United States (Jernal, Thomas, Murray, Thun, 2002). Many risk factors for breast cancer have been extensively studied in the past 25 years and the presence of these risk factors can greatly increase a woman's chance of developing breast cancer. A family history of breast cancer can increase an individual's risk by 1.5 to 3.0 times (Ottman, King, Pike, et al., 1983). The presence of a BRCA1 mutation is associated with an 87% cumulative risk by the age of 70 and BRCA2 mutations are associated with an 84% cumulative risk of breast cancer by age 80 (Ford, Easton, Stratton, et al., 1998). Breast cancer risk assessment models have been developed as a result of the knowledge gained from epidemiological studies. These models can provide more accurate estimates of lifetime risks for the development of breast cancer. Oftentimes, a woman's perceived risk of breast cancer is significantly different than her objective risk and this can impact on the adherence to breast cancer screening measures. A brief review of the literature on breast cancer risk perception and adherence to screening measures is provided in this paper. Additionally, a small pilot study addressing risk perception, objective risk and adherence to screening measures is described. The women in this study were attending a high-risk cancer clinic because of family histories of breast cancer. Finally, some suggestions are made about strategies that may be effective for improving women's breast cancer risk perception.

description: Das theoretische Werk von Fritz Voigt gehört noch immer zu den interessantesten Arbeiten der neueren deutschen Verkehrswissenschaft. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Gestaltungskraft leistungsfähiger Verkehrssysteme, Entwicklungsprozesse räumlich differenzieren zu können. Vor dem Hintergrund historischer Verkehrserschließung entwickelt, ist die Übertragung seiner Thesen auf Digitalisierung, Globalisierung und Neue Nähe überfällig. Der Rezeption dieses Konzepts steht seine voluminöse Darstellung entgegen. Die hier vorgelegte Kurzdarstellung für den Lehrbetrieb fasst die Grundaussagen zusammen und betont vor allem die innere Geschlossenheit dieses Erklärungsversuches und seine Konsequenzen für die Verkehrspolitik. Die folgenden Grundlinien stützen sich besonders auf die beiden Hauptwerke „Die volkswirtschaftliche Bedeutung des Verkehrssystems" (Duncker und Humblot, Berlin 1960) und „Verkehr" (2 Bände, Duncker und Humblot, Berlin 1965 und 1973).
description: The theoretical work of Fritz Voigt still belongs to the most interesting work of recent German transport science. It focuses on the creative power of effective transport systems to shape development processes very unevenly. Created against the background of historical transport development, the transfer of his theses to digitisation, internet and glocalisation is overdue. The length of the text affected the acceptance of these ideas. The brief overview for teaching purposes presented here summarises the basic messages and emphasizes the coherence of this explanation and its consequences for transport policy. The main principles and features outlined in this text are based on the two major works „Die volkswirtschaftliche Bedeutung des Verkehrssystems" (Duncker und Humblot, Berlin 1960) and „Verkehr" (2 volumes, Duncker und Humblot, Berlin 1965, 1973).

Assessment of maternal and neonatal health facility and service preparedness at regional hospitals in Ghana
Creators: name: Nelson, Rachel
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Global efforts to improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes have been given increasing attention recently. The development of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015 identifies specific targets for the reduction of child mortality and improving maternal health. The Ghana Health Service has partnered with global partners in efforts to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality throughout Ghana. To achieve these SDGs, attention must be given to care at all levels of the health system, including referral tertiary hospitals at the regional level. While reducing maternal and newborn mortality has been achieved through increased institutional births in low-to-middle income countries (LMIC), these efforts place greater strain on the health system, including the tertiary regional facilities. This can negate gains in improvement efforts to reduce maternal mortality and newborn deaths. Near the apex of health systems, regional hospitals should be well-equipped to adequately address the health of the sickest mothers and prevent mortality. Improving health outcomes in these complex settings requires an extensive understanding of the capacity of regional hospitals in LMICs. This paper presents results of a rapid health facility assessment (HFA), focusing on service delivery from four regional hospitals within Ghana’s Making Every Baby Count Initiative’s (MEBCI) program area. This assessment identified gaps in the availability of necessary drugs, equipment and training on the maternal wards and newborn areas and to identify opportunities for implementation of training and supply programs that reflect aim to eliminate this gap.
Can the 750-GeV diphoton resonance be the singlet Higgs boson of custodial Higgs triplet model?

description: The observation of diphoton excess around the mass of 750 GeV in LHC Run-II motivates us to consider whether the singlet Higgs boson in the custodial Higgs triplet model can serve as a good candidate because an earlier study of comprehensive parameter scan shows that it can have the right mass in the viable mass spectra. By assuming the singlet Higgs mass at 750 GeV, its total width less than 50 GeV and imposing constraints from the LHC 8-TeV data, we identify an approximately linear region on the $(v_Δ, α)$ plane along which the exotic Higgs boson masses satisfy a specific hierarchy and have lower possible spectra, where $v_Δ$ denotes the triplet vacuum expectation value and $α$ is the mixing angle between the singlet Higgs boson and the standard model-like Higgs boson. Although the diphoton decay rate can be enhanced by charged Higgs bosons running in the loop in this region, it is mostly orders of magnitude smaller than that required for the observed production rate, except for the small $v_Δ$ region when the diphoton fusion production mechanism becomes dominant. Nonetheless, this part of parameter space suffers from the problems of breakdown of perturbativity and large uncertainties in the photon parton distribution function of proton.

Conflicts of Interest between Sharia and International Sale of Goods: Does CISG Interest Fit with Islamic Law?

subject: International trade and investment law

description: Obligations to pay interest are widely accepted in commerce. However, in Muslim-majority countries subject to sharia law, they are normally forbidden. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (‘CISG’) art 78 imposes an interest obligation. Consequently, many have been reluctant to accede to the Convention. The CISG Advisory Council has partially addressed how the CISG interest obligation is affected by prohibitions on interest. What remains unresolved is whether this renders the CISG compatible with sharia law. To date, perceptions of their compatibility have relied on generalised views of both the Islamic prohibitions and CISG interest. This article seeks to truly determine whether sharia and the CISG are reconcilable on the question of interest. It examines the basis for Islamic prohibitions on riba and gharar, but importantly, considers differing approaches across individual Muslim-majority states. Likewise, interpretation of the CISG interest obligation is considered in detail. Given this richer contextual landscape, we analyse whether sharia ‘fits’ with the CISG. We conclude that the CISG and sharia are compatible if slight modifications to Opinion No 14 are adopted. This may encourage greater accession to the CISG by Muslim countries as part of their push to adopt laws that attract more international trade

description: We present the results from a study of the morphologies of moderate luminosity X-ray selected AGN host galaxies in comparison to a carefully mass-matched control sample at 0.5 < z < 3 in the CANDELS GOODS-S field. We apply a multi-wavelength morphological decomposition analysis to these two samples and report on the differences between the morphologies as fitted from single Sersic and multiple Sersic models, and models which include an additional nuclear point-source component. Thus, we are able to compare the widely adopted single Sersic fits from previous studies to the results from a full morphological decomposition, and address the issue of how biased the inferred properties of AGN hosts are by a potential nuclear contribution from the AGN itself. We find that the AGN hosts are mixed systems which have higher bulge fractions than the control sample in our highest redshift bins at the >99.7% confidence level, according to all model fits even those which adopt a point-source component. This serves to alleviate concerns that previous, purely single Sersic, analyses of AGN hosts could have been spuriously biased towards higher bulge fractions. This dataset allows us to further probe the physical nature of these point-source components; we find no strong correlation between the point-source component and AGN activity, and that these point-source components are best modelled physically by nuclear starbursts. Our analysis of the bulge and disk fractions of these AGN hosts in comparison to a mass-matched control sample reveals a similar morphological evolutionary track for both the active and non-active populations, providing further evidence in favour of a model where AGN activity is triggered by secular processes.

The geodesic equations are solved in terms of Weierstrass elliptic functions. To classify the trajectories around the black holes, we use the analytical solution and effective potential techniques and then characterize the different types of the resulting orbits in terms of the conserved energy and angular momentum. Also, using the obtained results we study astrophysical applications.

The Risk of Cancer after Computed Tomography in Pediatric Patients, a Systematic Review
Creators: name: Haberle, Sinisa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: The discovery of computed tomography (CT) has had a dramatic effect on the field of medicine and has revolutionized diagnostic radiology. Since it was initially discovered in the 1970s its use has steadily increased; the advent of multiphase (e.g. arterial and venous) scanning has further lead to an increase in the use of CT and an increase in radiation dose that is inherent in this new modality. The 3-dimensional views that CT can produce allow radiologists and physicians to more accurately diagnose diseases. The Department of Health and Human Services has estimated that over 62 million CT scans are currently obtained in the United States every year, including at least 4 million on pediatric patients. CT scans were initially used for symptomatic patients where they were used as diagnostic tools; more recently whole body CT scans, CT colonoscopy, and CT of the chest are being used as screening modalities in the adult population.1 Some of these areas, such as the whole body or lung cancer screening which are not indicated or recommended, are consumer-driven. The use of screening CT may not necessarily be harmful, if used appropriately, especially if it detects disease at an earlier and more treatable state. In some Dutch and Swedish centers CT is being used as a way to follow deterioration in Cystic Fibrosis patients. This may be a reasonable use of CT since it is less invasive than bronchoscopy and the associated anesthesia. One can see that there has been a clear increase in CT use in medical practice. Some of this use has greatly benefited diagnostic capabilities; but there is still a great deal of overuse, as seen by the explosion in CT use over the past decade, which could potentially harm patients. Physicians and families of the patients continue to push for diagnostic certainty and it is hard to quantify what affect this has had on the utilization of CT use. With the increased use of CT scans comes increasing radiation exposure which has the potential to cause harm, most importantly cancer. The fact that pediatric patients are more radiosensitive than adults is why the increase in pediatric diagnostic use of CT is particularly worrisome. This issue has garnered increased national attention from the health care professionals who are involved in the care of pediatric patients.

description: Conservation laws can constrain entanglement dynamics in isolated quantum systems, manifest in a slowdown of higher Rényi entropies. Here, we explore this phenomenon in a class of long-range random Clifford circuits with U(1) symmetry where transport can be tuned from diffusive to superdiffusive. We unveil that the different hydrodynamic regimes reflect themselves in the asymptotic entanglement growth according to S(t)∝t1/z where the dynamical transport exponent z depends on the probability ∝r−α of gates spanning a distance r. For sufficiently small α, we show that the presence of hydrodynamic modes becomes irrelevant such that S(t) behaves similarly in circuits with and without conservation law. We explain our findings in terms of the inhibited operator spreading in U(1)-symmetric Clifford circuits where the emerging light cones can be understood in the context of classical Lévy flights. Our Letter sheds light on the connections between Clifford circuits and more generic many-body quantum dynamics.

description: Abstract: Horizon research programs are the European Union's lighthouse for innovation and research concerning the agri-food chain, the management of natural resources, and the bioeconomy. Their innovation strategy approach is one that pursues the practical application of the research via the collaboration of all actors involved. Such strategy is the reflection of a Multi-Actor Approach as their procedure to enhance innovation. This paper presents the main trends and directions 101 Multi-Actor Projects (MAPs) are following on said approach towards innovation. The analysis is based on the use of well-defined "pathways" and "measures" proposed in the Guidelines for Evaluation of Innovation in Rural Development Programmes from the European Commission. Project coordinators from the 101 sampled MAPs were contacted to validate the initial assessment. Furthermore, analyses of the allocated budget, project type, and several other relevant project-specific variables were conducted to provide further insights on the innovation of MAPs. Results indicate an approximately equal distribution between projects working on identifying and developing new ideas ("Pathway 1") and projects working on the implementation of existing knowledge ("Pathway 2"). Trends towards the development of new products, practices, and processes, as well as the horizontal and vertical co-operation among supply chain actors, were also identified. The results suggest that Horizon should consider strengthening investment in projects targeting Pathway 2 for livestock & permanent grassland and the permanents crops sectors, as well as conducting more actions towards the diversification of farming activities.

description: In vitro cultivation conditions play a crucial role in cell physiology and the cellular response to external stimuli. Oxygen concentrations represent an essential microenvironmental factor influencing cell physiology and behaviour both in vivo and in vitro. Therefore, new approaches are urgently needed to monitor and control oxygen concentrations in 2D and 3D cultures, as well as cell reactions to these concentrations. In this work, we modified two types of human endothelial cells–human microvascular (huMECs) and umbilical vein endothelial cells (huVECs) with genetically encoded hypoxia biosensors and monitored cell reactions in 2D to different oxygen concentrations. Moreover, we fabricated 3D cell spheroids of different cell numbers and sizes to reveal the onset of hypoxia in huVECs and huMECs. We could demonstrate a quantitative sensor response of two cell types to reduced oxygen supply in 2D and reveal different thresholds for hypoxic response. In 3D cell spheroids we could estimate critical construct sizes for the appearance of a hypoxic core. This work for the first time directly demonstrates different hypoxic signatures for huVECs and huMECs in 2D and 3D cell culture systems.

description: The birth kicks of black holes, arising from asymmetric mass ejection or neutrino emission during core-collapse supernovae, are of great interest for both observationally constraining supernova models and population-synthesis studies of binary evolution. Recently, several efforts were undertaken to estimate black hole birth kicks from observations of black-hole low-mass X-ray binaries. We follow up on this work, specifically focussing on the highest estimated black-hole kick velocities. We find that existing observations do not require black hole birth kicks in excess of approximately 100 km/s, although higher kicks are not ruled out.

description: Parallel sentences are a relatively scarce but extremely useful resource for many applications including cross-lingual retrieval and statistical machine translation. This research explores our methodology for mining such data from previously obtained comparable corpora. The task is highly practical since non-parallel multilingual data exist in far greater quantities than parallel corpora, but parallel sentences are a much more useful resource. Here we propose a web crawling method for building subject-aligned comparable corpora from Wikipedia articles. We also introduce a method for extracting truly parallel sentences that are filtered out from noisy or just comparable sentence pairs. We describe our implementation of a specialized tool for this task as well as training and adaption of a machine translation system that supplies our filter with additional information about the similarity of comparable sentence pairs.

Age-related differences in reporting of drug-associated liver injury: Data-mining of the WHO Safety Report Database
Creators: name: Hunt, Christine M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: Background/aims: Children, adults and the elderly exhibit differing frequency and manifestations of drug-induced liver injury, which may be due to physiological changes associated with development and/or aging. WHO Safety Report Database data-mining analyses assessed the impact of age on liver event reporting frequency with different phenotypes. Methods: 236 drugs associated with hepatotoxicity in the WHO Safety Report Database were evaluated using the Empirical Bayes Geometric Mean (EBGM) of the relative reporting ratio with 90% confidence interval (EB05 and EB95) calculated for 3 different age groups, 0-17, 18-64, and >65 years (or elderly), for overall, serious (acute liver failure), hepatocellular, and cholestatic liver injury. Results: Overall, cases of age 0-17, 18-64, and 65 years or older comprised 6%, 62%, and 32% of liver event reports. Acute liver failure and hepatocellular injury were more frequently reported among children compared to adults and the elderly while reports with cholestatic injury were more frequent among the elderly (p<0.00001). Twenty-nine drugs, including anti-retrovirals, CNS agents, and antimetabolites, were associated with significantly higher reporting frequency among children vs. others, while 10 drugs were associated with significantly higher reporting frequency among the elderly. Regarding drug characteristics, a potential to cause mitochondrial dysfunction was more prevalent among the drugs with increased pediatric reporting frequency while high lipophilicity and biliary excretion were more common among the drugs associated with higher reporting frequency in the elderly. Conclusion: Our analysis identified age-specific phenotypes in reported liver events and potential drug properties associated with age-specific hepatotoxicity. Further analyses are warranted to better understand potential age-specific susceptibility.

In search of experimental evidence for secondary antisemitism - A file drawer report - version 1
Creators: name: Imhoff, Roland

description: In 1955, Adorno attributed antisemitic sentiments voiced by Germans to a paradox projection: The only latently experienced feeling of guilt were warded off by antisemitic defense mechanisms. Similar predictions of increases in antisemitic prejudiced in response to increased Holocaust salience could also be based on other theoretical apparatuses from social identity theory as well as just world theory. Based on the – to our best knowledge –only experimental evidence for such an effect (published in Psychological Science in 2009), the present research reports a series of studies originally conducted to better understand the contribution of the different assumed mechanisms. In light of a failure to replicate the basic effect, however, the studies shifted to an effort to demonstrate the basic process. We report all studies our lab has conducted on the issue. Overall, the data did not provide any evidence for the original effect. In addition to the obvious possibility of an original false positive, we speculate what might be responsible for this conceptual replication failure.

description: Dictyostelium longosporum H. Hagiw., Bull. Natn. Sci. Mus., Tokyo, Ser. B, 9(4): 155 (1983).
Sorocarps (Fig 1I) solitary, unbranched, phototropic, prostrate. Sorophores colorless, sinuous, 0.5–4.6(–30) mm high, bases (Fig 1L) expanded, tips (Fig 1K) capitate, tapering from bases to tips. Sori white, globose, 75–380 μm diam. Spores (Fig 1M) hyaline, ellipsoid, usually 5.0–8.8 × 3.0–4.5 μm, without polar granules. Cell aggregations (Fig 1J) radiate in pattern, with conspicuous streams. Pseudoplasmodia do not migrate and usually produce single sorogens. Macrocysts (Fig 1N) 7.5–12.5 × 8.8–12.5 μm.
 Cultures examined. HMJAU MR055. Strain 0075–4 isolated in 2009 from mixed forest soil (855 m elevation) collected in the Wangqing National Nature Reserve, Jilin Province, China, in the same year.
 Known distribution. Nepal and China.
 Commentary. From the original report (Hagiwara 1983) of this species, the soil samples for dictyostelid isolation were collected in open forests of the temperate zone at relatively high elevations, at about 1900-2610 m. However, in the present study, the soil samples were collected at a lower elevation (about 855 m) in a middle-temperate zone, which shows that this species is affected less by elevation.
