description: L’attività di ricerca condotta si interroga sul ruolo che può assumere la farmacia all’interno del sistema sanitario. Le modificazioni istituzionali e competitive del settore farmaceutico evidenziano, difatti, la necessità di sviluppare un nuovo modello di farmacia e di ripensarne la gestione in modo tale da garantirne o migliorarne la redditività. Lo scenario in cui operano le farmacie è caratterizzato da cambiamenti che traggono origine da diversi fattori: razionalizzazione della spesa pubblica; cambiamenti della domanda di prestazioni sanitarie; riduzione della marginalità sulla vendita dei farmaci prescrivibili; ampliamento della concorrenza (commercio elettronico, corner della GDO, parafarmacie ed erboristerie). I nuovi fattori premono sull’economia di tutti gli operatori del settore sanitario e quindi anche sulla farmacia. Il ruolo e il posizionamento dell’azienda farmacia - un tempo intesa come unico presidio sanitario al quale i cittadini si rivolgevano per soddisfare i loro bisogni di salute — devono, oggi, essere riconsiderati, esplorando nuove basi per la sua legittimazione sociale, istituzionale e di mercato1 . Obiettivo del lavoro di tesi è individuare una nuova identità strategica per la farmacia all’interno del sistema sanitario considerando i vincoli che caratterizzano il comparto farmaceutico e i cambiamenti emersi negli ultimi anni. Oltre all’offerta tradizionale di farmaci e all’erogazione di servizi aggiuntivi, si ritiene che il farmacista - laddove il paziente/utente è disposto - debba creare uno “spazio di comunicazione” con il cittadino, l’“assistenza”, il “servizio”. Nel presente lavoro per “servizio” non si intendono i servizi erogabili in farmacia introdotti dalle recenti normative, ma la “relazione”, il rapporto “consulenziale” e “fiduciario” con i pazienti. Nella prospettiva suggerita il rapporto continuativo, relazionale e fiduciario che la farmacia deve creare con il cittadino è considerato come fonte di valore aggiunto attraverso il quale, poi, si “co-crea valore” con e per mezzo di tutti gli attori del sistema. La nuova identità della farmacia del futuro è quella di un point della salute di riferimento per i cittadini. Lungo l’asse strategico del consolidamento e dello sviluppo di un’interfaccia sempre più efficace e completa nei confronti del paziente le farmacie possono, difatti, svolgere un’attività di coordinamento ed integrazione di prestazioni sanitarie e assumere il ruolo di punto sanitario territoriale. ..

Bromide tracer study to investigate depth of water uptake by switchgrass underneath vs. outside rainout shelters

description: In 2021 we conducted a bromide tracer experiment at the GLBRC Bioenergy Land Experiment (formerly
 known as the Marginal Land Experiment) at Lux Arbor Reserve to investigate whether switchgrass taps
 into deeper soil water under rainout shelters as the surface soil water dries out. Tapping deeper water
 could explain how switchgrass survives weeks without rainfall under the shelters and during natural dry
 periods.
 Bromide is useful as a conservative solute tracer because it is present at very low concentrations in soil
 solutions, is generally unreactive and remains in solution in soils, and can be readily measured using ion
 chromatography. Previous studies at KBS employing bromide as a tracer of soil water movement include
 Jin et al. (2008), Hess et al. (2018), and Hamilton (2020). Various studies in the literature have shown that bromide is taken up by plants, but this is mostly
 described in relation to how plant uptake may interfere with its use as a hydrologic tracer in wetlands. A
 prior study of bromide as a tracer by Bowman et al. (1997) documented plant uptake and considered
 toxicity, but not in switchgrass. Prior to the experiment with switchgrass under rainout shelters, we conducted a test for bromide
 uptake and toxicity in switchgrass to ensure that bromide was taken up into foliage in proportion to
 concentrations in the soil, and that the growth of the grass was not affected by high bromide in soil
 solutions. That study is summarized below.

description: The sewage canals of Kolkata, India are substantially polluted by heavily populated human habitats on their banks. This study, for the first time, throws light on the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens in those canal bank soils. Eighty-three percent of them showed resistance to amoxycillin and cefotaxime. Pathogens of Bagbazar canal soil demonstrated exceptionally high MIC ranges of amoxycillin. Pathogenic bacteria of agricultural furrow soil (AFS) samples from the outskirts of Kolkata were much smaller in number, and showed complete antibiotic sensitivity.

description: Recently, it was found that a wedgelike microparticle (referred to as "carrier") which is only allowed to translate but not to rotate exhibits a directed translational motion along the wedge cusp if it is exposed to a bath of microswimmers. Here we model this effect in detail by resolving the microswimmers explicitly using interaction models with different degrees of mutual alignment. Using computer simulations we study the impact of these interactions on the transport efficiency of V-shaped carrier. We show that the transport mechanisms itself strongly depends on the degree of alignment embodied in the modelling of the individual swimmer dynamics. For weak alignment, optimal carrier transport occurs in the turbulent microswimmer state and is induced by swirl depletion inside the carrier. For strong aligning interactions, optimal transport occurs already in the dilute regime and is mediated by a polar cloud of swimmers in the carrier wake pushing the wedge-particle forward. We also demonstrate that the optimal shape of the carrier leading to maximal transport speed depends on the kind of interaction model used.

description: Eine Rückplatzierung von Pflegekindern stellt in der Praxis eine komplexe Angelegenheit dar. Die hohe Schutzbedürftigkeit der Kinder, magere Gesetzesgrundlagen sowie verschiedene Akteur*innen und deren Interessen erfordern von Sozialarbeitenden eine sorgfältige Überprüfung, ob eine Rückplatzierung des Pflegekindes in die Herkunftsfamilie möglich ist. Dem Kindeswohl ist dabei höchste Priorität zuzusprechen. In der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit setzen sich die Autorinnen mit folgender Hauptfragestellung auseinander: Inwiefern lässt sich die Rückplatzierung von Pflegekindern aus Sicht der Sozialen Arbeit legitimieren? Zur Beantwortung dieser Fragestellung wurde eine Literaturrecherche durchgeführt. Im Fokus dieser Arbeit stehen die komplexen Spannungsfelder, die mithilfe ethischer Überlegungen bewältigt werden müssen. Eine enge Zusammenarbeit mit allen am Prozess beteiligten Akteur*innen einschliesslich Herkunftsfamilie, Pflegeeltern, Behörden und Fachkräften stellt sicher, dass alle relevanten Perspektiven berücksichtigt werden. Die Arbeit betont die Notwendigkeit eines tiefgründigen Verständnisses für rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen, psychosoziologische Grundlagen und Anwendung der ethischen Prinzipien des Berufskodex von AvenirSocial. Abschliessend hebt die Bachelorarbeit die Bedeutung der Partizipation der Kinder im Rückplatzierungsprozess hervor. Die Autorinnen empfehlen eine praxisnahe Implementierung dieses Grundsatzes, um die Legitimität des Rückplatzierungsprozesses zu gewährleisten.

description: We investigate the pairing symmetry in heavily overdoped Ba$_{1-x}$K$_{x}$Fe$_{2}$As$_{2}$ based on the spin-fluctuation mechanism. The exotic octet nodes of the superconducting gap and the unusual evolution of the gap with doping observed by the recent experiments are well explained in a unified manner. We demonstrate that the scatterings of electrons on the Fermi patches is mainly responsible for the incommensurate spin fluctuations and consequently the Fermi-surface-dependent multi-gap structure, since the Fermi level is close to the flat band. In addition, we find that a $d$-wave pairing state will prevail over the s-wave pairing state around the Lifshitz transition point.

description: Hexagonal ferrites (h-RFeO$_3$, R=Y, Dy-Lu) have recently been identified as a new family of multiferroic complex oxides. The coexisting spontaneous electric and magnetic polarizations make h-RFeO$_3$ rare-case ferroelectric ferromagnets at low temperature. Plus the room-temperature multiferroicity and predicted magnetoelectric effect, h-RFeO$_3$ are promising materials for multiferroic applications. Here we review the structural, ferroelectric, magnetic, and magnetoelectric properties of h-RFeO$_3$. The thin film growth is also discussed because it is critical in making high quality single crystalline materials for studying intrinsic properties.

description: Here we consider how high-content flow cytometric methodology at appropriate scale and throughput rapidly provided meaningful biological data in our recent studies of COVID-19, which we discuss in the context of other similar investigations. In our work, high-throughput flow cytometry was instrumental to identify a consensus immune signature in COVID-19 patients, and to investigate the impact of SARS-CoV-2 exposure on patients with either solid or hematological cancers. We provide here some examples of our 'holistic' approach, in which flow cytometry data generated by lymphocyte and myelomonocyte panels were integrated with other analytical metrics, including SARS-CoV-2-specific serum antibody titers, plasma cytokine/chemokine levels, and in-depth clinical annotation. We report how selective differences between T cell subsets were revealed by a newly described flow cytometric TDS assay to distinguish actively cycling T cells in the peripheral blood. By such approaches, our and others' high-content flow cytometry studies collectively identified overt abnormalities and subtle but critical changes that discriminate the immuno-signature of COVID-19 patients from those of healthy donors and patients with non-COVID respiratory infections. Thereby, these studies offered several meaningful biomarkers of COVID-19 severity that have the potential to improve the management of patients and of hospital resources. In sum, flow cytometry provides an important means for rapidly obtaining data that can guide clinical decision-making without requiring highly expensive, sophisticated equipment, and/or "-omics" capabilities. We consider how this approach might be further developed.

description: We present a new quasidilaton theory of Poincare invariant massive gravity, based on the recently proposed framework of matter coupling that makes it possible for the kinetic energy of the quasidilaton scalar to couple to both physical and fiducial metrics simultaneously. We find a scaling-type exact solution that expresses a self-accelerating de Sitter universe, and then analyze linear perturbations around it. It is shown that in a range of parameters all physical degrees of freedom have non-vanishing quadratic kinetic terms and are stable in the subhorizon limit, while the effective Newton's constant for the background is kept positive.

description: Precision measurements through engineered quantum systems are achieving new primacies in sensitivity and accuracy and therefore novel potential applications ranging from mechanical and electrical engineering to material science, nano-medicine, environmental science, and, in general, frontiers of technological development at large. For instance, the one-electron transistors and the one-spin qubits have been used as single quantum probes to detect electrical fields with unprecedented levels of precision. On the other hand, sensing schemes based on single quantum systems are strongly vulnerable even to very low levels of noise, due to the fragility of quantum coherence and the extreme sensitivity of quantum coherent probes. Recent efforts in quantum sensing and quantum metrology address this issue resorting to decoupling techniques and quantum correction schemes with quantum control feedback loops. Unfortunately, the experimental complexity and the control and precision requirements of such correction schemes, are exceedingly demanding both with present-day and currently foreseeable technologies. ..

Probing the gas content of radio galaxies through HI absorption stacking

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: Using the WSRT, we carried out shallow HI absorption observations of a flux-selected (S > 50 mJy) sample of 93 radio AGN with available SDSS redshifts between 0.02 < z < 0.23. We study the gas properties of radio AGN down to fluxes not systematically explored before using, for the first time, stacking of extragalactic HI absorption. Despite the shallow observations, we obtained a direct detection rate of ~29%, comparable with deeper studies. Detections are found at every flux level, showing that HI absorption detections are not biased toward brighter sources. The stacks of detections and non-detections reveal a clear dichotomy in the presence of HI, with the 27 detections showing an average peak τ = 0.02, while the 66 non-detections remain undetected with an upper limit τ < 0.002. Separating the sample into compact and extended AGN increases the detection rate, τ, and FWHM for the compact sample. The dichotomy for the stacked profiles of detections and non-detections still holds between these two groups. We argue that orientation effects connected to a disk-like distribution of HI can be partly responsible for the dichotomy, however some of our galaxies must be genuinely depleted of cold gas. A fraction of the compact sources are confirmed by previous studies as likely young radio sources. These show an even higher detection rate of 55%. Along with their high integrated optical depth and wider profile, this reinforces the idea that young radio AGN are particularly rich in atomic gas. Part of our motivation is to probe for the presence of HI outflows. However, the stacked profiles do not reveal any significant blueshifted wing. Our results are particularly relevant for future surveys. The lack of bias toward bright sources is encouraging for the search of HI at lower radio fluxes. The results also represent a reference point for search for HI absorption at higher redshifts.

Inpainting of Cyclic Data using First and Second Order Differences

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Cyclic data arise in various image and signal processing applications such as interferometric synthetic aperture radar, electroencephalogram data analysis, and color image restoration in HSV or LCh spaces. In this paper we introduce a variational inpainting model for cyclic data which utilizes our definition of absolute cyclic second order differences. Based on analytical expressions for the proximal mappings of these differences we propose a cyclic proximal point algorithm (CPPA) for minimizing the corresponding functional. We choose appropriate cycles to implement this algorithm in an efficient way. We further introduce a simple strategy to initialize the unknown inpainting region. Numerical results both for synthetic and real-world data demonstrate the performance of our algorithm.

description: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a debilitating neurological condition primarily affecting the elderly, with recent reports indicating that genetic variation contributes to 70% of AD cases. The pathology and progression of the disease are categorized into early-onset (EOAD) with sporadic or autosomal dominant familial causes, and late-onset prevalent (LOAD) with polygenic origins. Studies, including inheritance-based research and genome-wide association studies (GWAS), have identified various components, highlighting the complex polygenic nature of this condition. These investigations pave the way for discovering crucial biomarkers for early diagnosis and potential therapeutic strategies. While large-scale GWAS have identified numerous risk loci, interpreting functional implications, such as effect size and cellular impact of genetic variations, remains a challenge. To address this, our project focuses on annotating genomic sites encoding amino acid residues subject to post-translational modifications (PTMs) to distinguish between neutral variant effects and those influencing the phenotype. We hypothesize that these modifications significantly contribute to disease risk, given their association with key genes in the monogenic form of Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD), including APP, PSEN1, PSEN2, and MAPT. These PTMs induce changes in critical pathways underlying the disease's pathology. Our proposal involves creating a gene annotation database from GWAS studies encompassing both polygenic and monogenic forms, facilitating the investigation of genetic variation effects on potential PTM target sites in risk prediction. Additionally, leveraging the SABE ABraOM genomic variant repository from Brazilian individuals will provide insights into a mixed population and analyze the impact of various local ancestries on Alzheimer's Disease risk. The application, adaptation, and enhancement of bioinformatics tools for assessing AD manifestation risk represent a significant contribution to public health. Preliminary results indicate a modest contribution of post-translational modifications (PTMs) to Alzheimer's prediction, with acetylation modifications emerging as particularly relevant. Furthermore, Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) models applied to Kunkle and Bellenguez datasets have demonstrated improved performance in identifying Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD) cases, highlighting the crucial role of including APOE 4 allele-related information for identifying Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease (LOAD) cases.

description: We propose a general alternating minimization algorithm for nonconvex optimization problems with separable structure and nonconvex coupling between blocks of variables. To fix our ideas, we apply the methodology to the problem of blind ptychographic imaging. Compared to other schemes in the literature, our approach differs in two ways: (i) it is posed within a clear mathematical framework with practically verifiable assumptions, and (ii) under the given assumptions, it is provably convergent to critical points. A numerical comparison of our proposed algorithm with the current state-of-the-art on simulated and experimental data validates our approach and points toward directions for further improvement.

description: The purpose of this JCDP number 4 (2,3), offers an overview of developmental, clinical and research work in different settings, examining psychological and interpersonal variables that can promote cognitive and social skills through new methods, including in educational and academic training contexts. The number is also enriched by a clinical section through an in-depth study of neurodevelopment and topics with psychopathological connotations, such as social anxiety and the avoidant personality, with a nod to therapeutic modalities with particular attention to the phases of life. The studies, proposed below, deal with different perspectives of treatment in the life cycle, for treatment and research purposes, also focused on the caregivers' experiences in the patient-caregiver dynamic, using an evolutionary approach over the life span, which allow a reflection on a preventive- well-being promotion and treatment approach.

Properties of electrons scattered on a strong plane electromagnetic wave with a linear polarization: classical treatment

description: The relations among the components of the exit momenta of ultrarelativistic electrons scattered on a strong electromagnetic wave of a low (optical) frequency and linear polarization are established using the exact solutions to the equations of motion with radiation reaction included (the Landau-Lifshitz equation). It is found that the momentum components of the electrons traversed the electromagnetic wave depend weakly on the initial values of the momenta. These electrons are mostly scattered at the small angles to the direction of propagation of the electromagnetic wave. The maximum Lorentz factor of the electrons crossed the electromagnetic wave is proportional to the work done by the electromagnetic field and is independent of the initial momenta. The momentum component parallel to the electric field strength vector of the electromagnetic wave is determined only by the diameter of the laser beam measured in the units of the classical electron radius. As for the reflected electrons, they for the most part lose the energy, but remain relativistic. There is a reflection law for these electrons that relates the incident and the reflection angles and is independent of any parameters.

Human Cell Atlas

description: The emergence of the Human Cell Atlas and the prominence of single-cell omics have propelled cell types to the forefront of modern biology. Bioinformaticians now heavily rely on various databases that furnish crucial information, especially markers, essential for annotating new datasets. However, despite the pivotal role of cell types, the organization of information about these entities remains in its infancy. Unlike species and genes, a standardized nomenclatural scheme for cell types and clear boundaries for their assignment are still lacking. While most datasets use ambiguous natural language, the Cell Ontology has been providing unique identifiers for cell types for over two decades, although contributing to it demands advanced skills in GitHub and ontology development. Presently, it offers identifiers for fewer than 2800 cell types. In contrast, Wikidata, the versatile open knowledge graph of the Wikimedia Foundation, encompassing over 100 million entities, is increasingly harnessed for integrating biomedical knowledge. It allows for seamless navigation and editing through a user-friendly visual interface and well-documented APIs. Following successful integration efforts with data from Gene Ontology, Cellosaurus, Complex Portal, and others, its web-based SPARQL Query Service emerges as a potent tool for biomedical discovery. This work describes a three-year endeavor to explore Wikidata as a platform for representing information about cell types. Currently, Wikidata hosts identifiers for over 600 cell types, in addition to more than 2600 cross-references to Cell Ontology, 8400 marker genes, 500 links to Wikipedia pages, and 150 links to openly-licensed images, all queryable via SPARQL. Its accessible, crowd-sourced infrastructure facilitates rapid biocuration, enhancing coverage and providing a testing ground for the large-scale organization of cell type information. Wikidata has matured as a platform for cell type information and stands ready to be integrated into workflows involving Cell Ontology and bioinformatics.

description: Using scanning tunneling microscopy together with the first-principles density functional theory calculations we study structural properties of the Si(111)5x2-Au surface covered by Ag adatoms. The STM topography data show that a submonolayer coverage of Ag does not lead to a well-ordered adatom chain structure with a periodicity 5x4, as it was observed for Si, Pb and In adatoms. Instead of that, we observe Ag adatoms located in different nonequivalent positions within the unit cell, which confirms the electronic nature of stabilization of the Si(111)5x2-Au surface. Moreover, the DFT calculations give five different structural models of the Si(111)5x2-Au/Ag surface. All the models are almost degenerate in energy, which further supports the above scenario.
