description: Recent studies of cold exposure have focused on the nutritional status of shivering individuals, studying the importance of carbohydrate stores for shivering muscles. These studies have illustrated that during moderate cold stress, muscle glycogen is the main substrate for heat production. Consequently, it is thought that shivering will cease and hypothermia will set in when muscle glycogen stores gets compromised or exhausted. In spite of this, no studies to date have investigated the effects glucose ingestion on fuel selection during cold exposure. Using a combination of indirect calorimetry and isotopic methods, the aims of this thesis were to determine the effects of glucose ingestion on whole body heat production and oxidative fuel selection to (1) confirm that heat production and core temperature will not change with glucose feedings during shivering, (2) quantify the effects of glucose feedings on whole body fuel selection, (3) quantify the effects of glucose feedings on the oxidation of CHO stores (muscle glycogen), and (4) quantify the oxidation of the ingested exogenous glucose. Six healthy men were exposed to cold for 120 min (liquid conditioned suit perfused with 4°C water) on three randomized occasions during which 500ml of a glucose solution was ingested to supply: 0.04 g·min-1 (C), 0.4 g·min-1 (Lo) or 0.8 g·min-1 (Hi) of glucose. We observed that (1) glucose ingestion has no effects on whole body thermal response. (2) Absolute and relative CHO and lipids oxidation rates did not differ significantly between conditions. (3) Muscle glycogen oxidation was not affected by glucose ingestion, but hepatic glucose production decreased with 0.8 g·min-1 of glucose ingestion. (4) The maximal rate of exogenous glucose oxidation observed was 0.2 g·min-1. No difference was seen between exogenous glucose oxidation rate during the Lo and Hi conditions. The result of this thesis provides the first estimates of exogenous glucose oxidation rate in the cold and quantifies the effects of glucose ingestion on whole-body energy demands. This information may contribute to improve survival strategies for human exposed to cold environments.

description: Mass spectrometry (MS), with its immense technological developments over the last two decades, has emerged as an unavoidable technique in analyzing biomolecules such as proteins and peptides. Its multiplexing capability and explorative approach make it a valuable tool for analyzing complex clinical samples concerning biomarker research and investigating pathophysiological mechanisms. Peptides regulate various biological processes, and several of them play a critical role in many disease-related pathological conditions. One important example in neurodegenerative diseases is the accumulation of amyloid-beta peptides (Aβ) in the brain of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients. When investigating brain function and brain-related pathologies, such as neurodegenerative diseases, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) represents the most suitable sample because of its direct contact with the brain. In this review, we evaluate publications applying peptidomics analysis to CSF samples, focusing on neurodegenerative diseases. We describe the methodology of peptidomics analysis and give an overview of the achievements of CSF peptidomics over the years. Finally, publications reporting peptides regulated in AD are discussed.

description: Background Passive mandibular advancement with functional appliances is commonly used to treat juvenile patients with mandibular retrognathism. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate whether active repetitive training of the mandible into an anterior position would result in a shift of the habitual mandibular position (HMP). Methods Twenty adult healthy subjects were randomly assigned to one of two groups: a training group receiving six supervised functional training sessions of 10 min each and a control group without training. Bonded lateral biteplates disengaged occlusion among both groups throughout the 15-day experiment. Customised registration-training appliances consisted of a maxillary component with an anterior plane and a mandibular component with an attached metal sphere. Training sessions consisted of repeated mouth-opening/closing cycles (frequency: 30/min) to hit an anteriorly positioned hemispherical target notch with this metal sphere. The HMP was registered at defined times during the experiment. Results The HMP in the training group showed a statistically significant anterior shift of 1.6 mm (interquartile range [IQR]: 1.2 mm), compared with a significant posterior shift of −0.8 mm (IQR: 2.8 mm) in the control group (p < .05). Although the anterior shift among the training group showed a partial relapse 4 days after the first training block, it then advanced slightly in the 4-day interval after the second training block, which might indicate neuroplasticity of the masticatory motor system. Conclusions Motor learning by repetitive training of the mandible into an anterior position might help to improve the results of functional appliance therapy among patients with mandibular retrognathism.
Feminine consciousness and Greek spirit in Hegel

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Philosophy.

description: Hegel's inherently universal conception of modern subjectivity recognizes the principle of the modern subject is "the self-sufficient and inherently infinite personality of the individual." Hegel's deepest and most genuine intentions require all humanity to lead a universal life of full and concrete personhood in accordance with the definition of human nature as a concrete unity of substance and subject. These are not fulfilled in his treatment of feminine consciousness. Women have not been fully reconciled with modern subjectivity. The thesis investigates opportunities to systematically resolve the inconsistencies inherent in Hegel's feminine consciousness, consistent with his logical imperatives and genuine intentions. The main contribution will be to locate sources of the problem that have been identified but not fully analysed in the literature of feminist philosophy. Beyond the standard references (The Phenomenology of Mind and Philosophy of Right) the thesis examines other works, notably, Science of Logic and relevant passages from throughout the Realphilosophie including history, aesthetics, and the philosophy of religion. The problem is situated within the framework of Hegel's developmental account of historical Spirit. The special relationship between feminine consciousness and Greek Spirit is studied in Hegel's Antigone story. She represents the Beautiful Individual whose freedom lies in self-sacrifice for universal ends of the community. Hegel's theory of modern ethical life once again casts women in the dutiful role of Beautiful Individuals and leaves them to perform the essential function of preserving objective Spirit, at the expense of their own self-consciousness. The thesis studies Hegel's contradictory treatment of women in the larger context of his effort to systematically resolve the ancient conflict of Nature and Spirit integral to the character of the ancient subject. Antigone reappears as a sign that, notwithstanding the modern principle of subjective freedom and Christian egalitarian principles that underlie the secular world, Hegel was unable to rationally and logically resolve this problem. The development within the theory of modern ethical life of a responsible standpoint towards Nature and finitude is necessary, for Hegel's intentions for women and men to be realized.

Motivation Perspectives on Opening up Municipality Data: Does Municipality Size Matter?

description: National governments often expect municipalities to develop toward open cities and be equally motivated to open up municipal data, yet municipalities have different characteristics influencing their motivations. This paper aims to reveal how municipality size influences municipalities’ motivation perspectives on opening up municipality data. To this end, Q-methodology is used, which is a method that is suited to objectify people’s frames of mind on a particular topic. By applying this method to 37 municipalities in the Netherlands, we elicited the motivation perspectives of three main groups of municipalities: (1) advocating municipalities, (2) careful municipalities, and (3) conservative municipalities. We found that advocating municipalities are mainly large-sized municipalities (>65,000 inhabitants) and a few small-sized municipalities (<35,000 inhabitants). Careful municipalities concern municipalities of all sizes (small, medium, and large). The conservative municipality perspective is more common among smaller-sized municipalities. Our findings do not support the statement “the smaller the municipality, the less motivated it is to open up its data”. However, the type and amount of municipality resources do influence motivations to share data or not. We provide recommendations for how open data policy makers on the national level need to support the three groups of municipalities and municipalities of different sizes in different ways to stimulate the provision of municipal data to the public as much as possible. Moreover, if national governments can identify which municipalities adhere to which motivation perspective, they can then develop more targeted open data policies that meet the requirements of the municipalities that adhere to each perspective. This should result in more open data value creation.

A social psychological approach to preserving heritage languages: The survival of Gaelic in Nova Scotia

subject: Language, General.

description: Language has been seen as a central pillar to ethnic identity. When languages are at risk, therefore, the relationship between language and ethnic identity can become particularly salient (Edwards, 1991). Heritage languages, in particular, often face what has been called a language shift, where the heritage language is replaced by the dominant language. When the heritage language is threatened, what happens to the heritage identity? In an attempt to answer this question, this study investigated the relationship between language and ethnic identity among 75 Gaelic learners living in eastern Nova Scotia. In order to identify the specific processes of heritage language use, the Gaelic learners were compared to non-learners of Gaelic and French learners living in the same milieu. Path analyses indicated that, among Gaelic learners, there is an initial separation of language and ethnic identity, but that, over time, ethnic identity is a direct outcome of language use. This finding was unique to the heritage language learners. Further, desired language vitality was a direct precursor to contact, language confidence, Gaelic and Anglophone identity and willingness to communicate among Gaelic learners. Actual language vitality played no role in the language use process among Gaelic learners, suggesting that vitality perceptions that are egocentric are better predictors of language use than those that are exocentric. The implications of these findings are discussed not only in relation to the future of Gaelic in Nova Scotia, but also to the survival of heritage languages in general.

description: Magnetoelastic anisotropies arising from substrate induced strains provide a way to optimize the magnetic properties of nanoparticles. A possible way to induce such anisotropies is the deposition of clusters on substrates which are deformed or otherwise expanded subsequently. However, the experimental determination of strain in nanoparticles is complicated by the low diffraction intensities. We used the molecular dynamics simulation technique to determine the deformation of Co particles deposited on Cu substrates. Co particles of 4.5 nm diameter with fcc structure were built using a Wulff construction and subsequently deposited with their (111) or (100) facets on (100) oriented Cu substrates with a kinetic energy of 10meV/atom at temperatures of 10 K or 300 K. After the deposition, the lattice parameter of the Cu substrate has been increased continuously. It is found that significant strain in the Co particles can only be obtained in the case of (100) facets on (100) surfaces at low temperatures.

description: Cognitive impairment is a prevalent comorbidity seen in elderly heart failure (HF) patients and is linked to poor quality of life, reduced self-care abilities and increased hospital readmissions, possibly due to a reduced capacity to understand and follow complex treatment protocols. In addition to cognitive impairments, HF patients also endure depressed mood and increased anxiety. In order to establish the most effective treatment for improving or ameliorating cognitive impairment and mood in older HF patients, a better understanding of the basic physiological mechanisms is necessary. Previous research suggests that mechanisms underlying cognitive impairments in these patients include reduced cerebral blood flow but little is known about the influence of other processes on their cognitive impairments. The aim of the present thesis was to examine whether inflammatory, antioxidant, oxidative stress and arterial stiffness explain cognitive deficits and depressed mood and anxiety in elderly HF. A further aim was to explore additional cognitive domains that may be impaired in HF using a well-validated computerised neuropsychological assessment battery. In this thesis, 36 patients with HF (NYHA class II, III or IV) aged 60 years and above were compared to 40 age- and sex- matched controls on tests of cognitive function, mood and several biological mechanisms including cerebral blood flow, arterial stiffness, inflammation, oxidative stress and antioxidant markers. The results indicated that Power of Attention is an additional cognitive domain impaired in elderly HF patients. Determinable reactive oxygen metabolites (DROMs) are significantly elevated in HF compared to controls. Furthermore, the results indicated that reduced common carotid arterial blood flow velocity, arterial stiffness and reduced coenzyme Q10 levels were related to poor attention and psychomotor abilities in elderly HF patients. Common carotid arterial blood flow velocity and reduced circulating coenzyme Q10 were associated with reduced executive function in HF. Although inflammation and oxidative stress were significantly elevated in the HF group, there was no indication these biomarkers were related to cognitive function. Finally, the results indicated that cerebral blood flow, arterial stiffness, antioxidants and inflammatory makers did not relate to depression or anxiety levels in HF. In conclusion, this thesis confirmed the existence of cognitive impairments in HF, and suggested that Power of Attention may be a further, previously undescribed impairment. These findings also indicate that DROMs are a useful measure of oxidative stress in older HF patients, and those interventions that reduce central pulse pressure, increase cerebral blood flow and elevate coenzyme Q10 levels may improve attention and executive function in elderly HF patients.

description: Um festzustellen, ob bei kleinen Insel-Festland-Entfernungen (2 - 6 km) bereits ein Inseleffekt in der Reproduktionsbiologie von Pflanzen auftritt, wurden Asteriscus maritimus, Senecio leucanthemifolius und Teucrium polium auf einer Landzunge (Cap Croisette, je 2 Populationen) und auf einer Insel (Ile Ratonneau, je 1 Population) bei Marseille (Frankreich) hinsichtlich verschiedener Parameter untersucht. Abschirmungsexperimente zeigten, dass alle drei Arten ein xenogames Reproduktionssystem mit fakultativer Auto- oder Geitonogamie haben. Quantitative Untersuchungen von Blütenmorphologie, Blütenfarbe und -duft, Nektarproduktion und -zusammensetzung, Pollenproduktion, Fruchtansatz, Bestäuberspektren und -beobachtungen sowie Standortaufnahmen auf allen Standorten wurden verglichen. Ein Teil der untersuchten Parameter zeigte deutliche Unterschiede (Blütenmorphologie T. polium und S. leucanthemifolius, Blütenköpfchendurchmesser A. maritimus, Fruchtansatz A. maritimus und S. leucanthemifolius und Nektarproduktion T. polium) zwischen allen drei Standorten; ein anderer Teil unterschied sich nicht signifikant. Da in der Bestäuberabundanz keine signifikanten Standortunterschiede festgestellt wurden, ist die Vermutung, dass es sich bei den morphologischen und chemischen Unterschieden um Anpassungen an die Bestäuberarmut handelt, entkräftet. Die Unterschiede sind häufig zwischen der Insel und der Nordseite des Caps genauso groß wie zwischen der Nordseite und der Südseite des Caps. Dies spricht gegen einen evolutiv bedingten Inseleffekt. Vergleiche mit den klimatischen Verhältnissen auf allen drei Standorten weisen eher auf wetterinduzierte Wuchsformvariationen hin.

description: Background: Genome sequencing yields the sequence of many short snippets of DNA (reads) from a genome. Genome assembly attempts to reconstruct the original genome from which these reads were derived. This task is difficult due to gaps and errors in the sequencing data, repetitive sequence in the underlying genome, and heterozygosity. As a result, assembly errors are common. In the absence of a reference genome, these misassemblies may be identified by comparing the sequencing data to the assembly and looking for discrepancies between the two. Once identified, these misassemblies may be corrected, improving the quality of the assembled sequence. Although tools exist to identify and correct misassemblies using Illumina paired-end and mate-pair sequencing, no such tool yet exists that makes use of the long distance information of the large molecules provided by linked reads, such as those offered by the 10x Genomics Chromium platform. We have developed the tool Tigmint to address this gap. Results: To demonstrate the effectiveness of Tigmint, we applied it to assemblies of a human genome using short reads assembled with ABySS 2.0 and other assemblers. Tigmint reduced the number of misassemblies identified by QUAST in the ABySS assembly by 216 (27%). While scaffolding with ARCS alone more than doubled the scaffold NGA50 of the assembly from 3 to 8 Mbp, the combination of Tigmint and ARCS improved the scaffold NGA50 of the assembly over five-fold to 16.4 Mbp. This notable improvement in contiguity highlights the utility of assembly correction in refining assemblies. We demonstrate the utility of Tigmint in correcting the assemblies of multiple tools, as well as in using Chromium reads to correct and scaffold assemblies of long single-molecule sequencing. Conclusions: Scaffolding an assembly that has been corrected with Tigmint yields a final assembly that is both more correct and substantially more contiguous than an assembly that has not been corrected. Using single-molecule sequencing in combination with linked reads enables a genome sequence assembly that achieves both a high sequence contiguity as well as high scaffold contiguity, a feat not currently achievable with either technology alone.

description: To meet transport sector obligations to emissions reductions, large effects may be derived from intelligent transportation systems (ITS) solutions. Substantial decrease of vehicle miles travelled (VMT) can be achieved using transportation systems management (TSM) measures, especially through high-occupancy vehicles (HOV) incentives. Of these, carpooling and vanpooling approaches proved to be effective. However, there is a lack of reliable enforcement procedures. A review of automated vehicle occupancy verification (AVOV) research and development (R&D) is followed by a proposal focused on the Pan European emergency call 'eCall 112'. The concept explores options for an eCall 112 application as an enforcement tool in TSM operations with vehicle occupancy data contained in the minimum set of data (MSD) as the base for new road transport policy tools. A set of incentives is described which support transport and environmental objectives. The proposed enforcement may impact congestion levels in combination with HOV-lanes and without them. Climate, environment, and the performance of road transportation systems could benefit from integrated road safety and TSM operations. © The Authors(s) 2019

description: Mercury methylation in aquatic systems has been linked to the activity of various anaerobic microbes, including sulfate-reducers (SRB), iron-reducers (FeRP) and methanogens (MPA). This study focuses on the biogeochemical factors, i.e., the relative importance of the diverse groups of anaerobic microbes, that affect net methyl mercury formation in freshwater. Methylation and demethylation were measured separately using enriched stable isotopes of mercury in microcosms treated with specific microbial inhibitors and abiotic control systems. Non-contaminated sediments from the Mer Blue wetland in Ottawa, Ontario, were used to test the proper set up and methods to be used for future experiments. Mercury-contaminated sediments of the St. Lawrence River (SLR) in Cornwall (Zone 1), Ontario, were investigated because they have been found to be a potential source of MeHg in the food web and the river system. In the Zone 1 SLR sediments, strong positive correlations were observed between methylation rate constants and sulfate reducing rates, as well as demethylation rates constants and methane production rates, indicating that SRB are primary methylators and MPA have the leading role in methylmercury demethylation. The inhibition of both SRB and MPA enhanced iron-reduction while MeHg production was not completely stopped, indicating that iron-reduction might however be another important process in MeHg production in the Zone 1 SLR sediments, probably by decreasing demethylation rather than favouring methylation, as shown by the strong negative correlation between Kd and iron-reduction rates. Similar findings were obtained for the Mer Bleue sediments, with the exception that SRB were involved in both methylation and demethylation. A new modified procedure for measuring mercury isotopes in sediment samples was also proposed. The procedure uses acid leaching-ion exchange-thiosulfate extraction (TSE) to isolate and purify the methylated mercury from the matrix. Major advantages of the TSE procedure include the extraction and analysis of a large number of samples in a short time, excellent analyte recoveries, and the lack of artefact formation. Recoveries between 94 and 106% were obtained for the standards CRMs, BCR 580 and IAEA 405. Comparisons between TSE and other procedures (distillation, acid-leaching) have shown good agreement of methylmercury values.

Remarks.
Macromotettixoides angustivertex Zha & Peng was described by Peng et al. (2021) and was later transferred to the genus Hainantettix by Subedi (2022). We examined the type specimen of Hainantettix strictivertex Deng, 2020. Although we did not examine the type material of M. angustivertex from Hainan, according to the original description and photographs of the type specimens in Peng et al. (2021), we found that the two species share identical morphological structures, type locality, and coloration. These two taxa are conspecific and characterized by the vertex very strongly narrowed towards the front drawing the eyes together; antennal grooves inserted below inferior margin of compound eyes; rami strongly divergent, width of longitudinal furrow of frontal ridge is distinctly wider than antennal groove diameter.

description: This thesis investigates the intrinsic radiative features of gold nanorods using linear and nonlinear spectroscopy. Here, we report direct, independent measurements of two-photon action cross sections (TPACS) of single gold bipyramids, hemispherically capped cylindrical nanorods and dumbbells, which have increasing radius of curvature at the tip, are measured and compared per same aspect ratio and volume. We also performed nanometer precise investigation on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) mediated scattering and two photon properties properties of electron beam lithography (EBL) fabricated gold nanorods and locally estimated the damped plasmon phase shift due to the metallic adhesion layer induced plasmon damping.
Novel designs and theories for holographic fiber networking components.

description: The author's major contributions presented in this Ph.D. thesis are three novel design techniques (or concepts) for implementation of efficient holographic fiber networking components. The first concept is termed grating degeneration, which allows sharing of one holographic grating by more than one wave pair. This makes it possible to use a single grating as a number of 2 x 2 couplers in parallel, and the number of gratings required for fiber N x N couplers can be significantly reduced. The second concept is the so-called sandwich structure. By using a sandwich structure, a multi-stage topology, instead of a complete mesh, can be incorporated in the construction of a grating system in a coupler. This again can simplify the structure of an N x N coupler, especially when combined with the grating degeneration technique. The third technique, called quasi-Bragg diffraction is introduced in this thesis for the construction of 16 x 16 couplers. It turns out that when designed properly, the number of gratings required by a 16 x 16 coupler can be reduced to two per slab. The key technique is to use off-Bragg diffraction while keeping the violation of Bragg condition much higher for the unwanted waves than for the wanted waves. This technique may also be applied to other grating-based components. More generally, all of the three presented techniques may be applied to any multiple-grating-based component. An example is given in this thesis for applying grating degeneration to the construction of 8 x 8 wavelength routing couplers. Another aspect of the author's contribution is the development of a generalized diffraction theory. The major features of the theory are the rigorousness and the generality. On one hand, the theory is rigorously based on Maxwell's equations, which makes it a realistic model for simulations and analyses. On the other hand, the theory places no restrictions on light polarization, the incident wave direction and the parameters of the grating system. This is vital to the design of a multi-grating system using grating degeneration because of the three-dimensional arrangement of the wave vectors. Jones matrices are used for a complete characterization of any grating-bearing slabs. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
