description: The capability of current Ergonomics methods to capture dynamism is limited, stifling our understanding of work-as-done, distributed situational awareness and organisational drift. This paper provides a demonstration of concept of DynEAST; an extension of the EAST framework underpinned by principles from Dynamic Network Analysis, to capture elements of dynamism within work systems. The DynEAST concept is applied to a railway maintenance case study. Case study findings demonstrate how DynEAST outputs can be used to advance our understanding of the aforementioned phenomena and better equip practitioners for current and future Ergonomics challenges. Practitioner summary: This paper introduces the DynEAST method. DynEAST enables HF/E practitioners to model and analyse dynamic features of complex work systems. The development of DynEAST is timely due to the concurrent proliferation of increasingly complex sociotechnical systems and stagnation of HF/E methods development; particularly those able to model systemic dynamism.

description: Genetic relatives of hereditary colorectal cancer patients with Lynch syndrome (LS) are at risk of cancer. Testing both colorectal cancer patients and relatives of mutation carriers for LS allows targeted prevention. However, this could mean disclosing sensitive health data to family members. In light of potential trade-offs between cost-effectiveness and patient privacy, this study investigates the implications of increasing test uptake in Germany. Out of 22 screening strategies for LS, the non-dominated and current German strategies were assessed from the perspective of the statutory health insurance. Life years gained by increased prevention were estimated with Markov models. The effects and implications of different test uptake rates in index patients and their relatives were investigated by scenario analysis. Privacy limitations could yield health gains of up to 2500 undiscounted life years for first-degree relatives of index patients and substantially improve cost-effectiveness. However, this approach may contradict the right to informational self-determination. This study demonstrates the effect higher LS test uptakes could have on the lives and rights of colorectal cancer patients and their relatives. It shows potential conflicts between the efficient use of health care resources on the one hand and reasonable consideration of patient autonomy on the other.
Evolution of North Carolina's Community-based Nutrition System of Care for Infants and Toddlers with Developmental Disabilities, with a Focus on the Infant-Toddler Program
Creators: name: Williams, Melissa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: North Carolina's early intervention nutrition services for children with developmental disabilities change over time and are influenced by factors that include research, advocacy, and legislation. Nutrition services provided by Registered Dietitians (RDs) of local Children's Developmental Agencies (CDSAs), as part of the NC Early Intervention Infant-Toddler Program (NC ITP), is one of the original components of the state's sytem of community-based nutrition care. The evolution of this system, as described by CDSA Registered Dietitians and other key players and partners is previously undocumented. Informed by interviews with individuals involved in NC CDSAs and a review of published and unpublished literature, this paper presents the history of NC's community-based nutrition care system from the introduction of nutrition servcies in NC Developmental Evaluation Centers (DECs) to the transition of these centers into CDSAs; important interactions between CDSAs and other agencies; and how these transitions affect nutrition care for NC's infants and toddlers with special needs.

description: The Malaysian education system has been influenced by numerous internal and external developments. Historically, Britain’s colonial rule created institutional structures that still impact education in Malaysia. In addition, the country’s ethnic diversity with the predominance of the Malay majority significantly shapes the education system, with different educational institutions for the different ethnic groups. The paper also examines the inclusiveness and scope of benefits in the Malaysian education sector, focusing on gender parity, migrant and refugee education, and educational digitalization. While Malaysia has made considerable progress in educational digitalization and integrating girls and women into its education system, the education of migrants and refugees remains a challenge, with these groups lacking access to the public education system. It is also shown that Malaysia has aligned its education reforms with international initiatives, notably referencing OECD’s PISA studies, and undertaking reforms based on these assessments. Accordingly, cooperation with international organizations has played a important role in advancing Malaysia’s education system. I argue that while international norms have significantly influenced Malaysia’s education policies, challenges remain in effectively implementing these norms. The study employs qualitative content analysis and expert interviews to explore these developments, highlighting how historical and institutional contexts and norms have shaped reform outcomes.

description: The excitation of precursor solitons ahead of a rapidly moving object in a fluid, a spectacular phenomenon in hydrodynamics that has often been observed ahead of moving ships, has surprisingly not been investigated in plasmas where the fluid model holds good for low frequency excitations such as ion acoustic waves. In this paper we report the first experimental observation of precursor solitons in a flowing dusty plasma. The nonlinear solitary dust acoustic waves (DAWs) are excited by a supersonic mass flow of the dust particles over an electrostatic potential hill. In a frame where the fluid is stationary and the hill is moving the solitons propagate in the upstream direction as precursors while wake structures consisting of linear DAWs are seen to propagate in the downstream region. A theoretical explanation of these excitations based on the forced Korteweg-deVries model equation is provided and their practical implications in situations involving a charged object moving in a plasma are discussed.

Severe Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Impact of Nutrition Intervention on Quality of Life
Creators: name: Sodano, Carolina Concepcion Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Osteogenesis imperfecta is a diverse group of rare genetic disorders that result in varying degrees of bone frailty and skeletal deformities. There are few nutrition recommendations for infants and children with osteogenesis imperfecta, who are at an increased risk of overweight and obesity, or who may experience feeding difficulties that can result in underweight and malnutrition. A ten-month-old male with severe osteogenesis imperfecta requiring enteral nutrition support was admitted to a community hospital for treatment of respiratory distress and a high fever. The patient was intubated for eight days, but his hospital stay was then prolonged because he continued to experience breathing difficulties, intermittent fevers, and worsening gastrointestinal distress. We implemented several changes to the patient’s nutrition prescription in an attempt to improve his feeding tolerance, including switching the patient to a partially hydrolyzed formula, providing a probiotic designed to alleviate digestive distress, and recommending a laxative regimen. The patient’s health, however, continued to deteriorate in the hospital, and he had to be reintubated after two months. At this point, the patient had developed an ileus and lower extremity edema, and he was unable to tolerate trophic feeds. After discontinuing tube-feedings, the patient no longer experienced abdominal distension or agitation, and his lower extremity edema improved. He passed away nineteen days after discontinuing enteral nutrition support. This case describes the difficulties of meeting the nutritional needs of an infant with severe osteogenesis imperfecta and feeding intolerance. Although withholding nutrition was challenging ethically, this case illustrates the benefits of discontinuing nutrition support in a terminally ill infant. Recognizing the benefits and burden of nutrition intervention is critical for providing individualized care and optimizing a patient’s quality of life.

description: We show that the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) can realistically challenge the Inert Doublet Model, excluding its heavy regime up to dark matter masses of 800 GeV and probing a large fraction of the remaining viable parameter space at even higher masses. Two features of the Inert Doublet Model make it particularly suitable for CTA searches. First, the dark matter mass (in the heavy regime) must be larger than 500 GeV. Second, the dark matter annihilation cross section, $σv$, is always larger than the thermal one, reaching values as high as $10^{-25} \mathrm{cm^3s^{-1}}$. This higher value of $σv$ is the result of the unavoidable coannhilation effects that determine the relic density via thermal freeze-out in the early Universe. We find that with 100 hours of Galactic Center exposure, CTA's expected limit widely surpasses, even after the inclusion of systematic errors, current and projected bounds from Fermi-LAT and HESS on this model.

description: This is a project funded by NIMH (R01-MH103291, awarded to Dr. Katie McLaughlin) that seeks to identify mechanisms linking child maltreatment to child and adolescent psychopathology, with a particular focus on the role of emotion regulation. Abstract: Childhood adversity is common and strongly associated with risk for psychopathology. Identifying factors that buffer children from experiencing psychopathology following adversity is critical for developing more effective intervention approaches. The present study examined several behavioral metrics of reward processing reflecting global approach motivation for reward and the degree to which reward responses scaled with reward value (i.e., behavioral sensitivity to reward value) as potential moderators of the association of multiple dimensions of adversity—including trauma, caregiver neglect, and food insecurity—with depression and externalizing psychopathology in a sample of youth aged 8-16 years (n = 132). Trauma exposure and externalizing problems were positively associated at low and moderate levels of reward reactivity, but this association became non-significant at high levels of reward reactivity. Our findings extend prior work, suggesting that high behavioral sensitivity to reward value may buffer against externalizing problems following exposure to trauma.
$L_2$ discrepancy of symmetrized generalized Hammersley point sets in base $b$

description: Two popular and often applied methods to obtain two-dimensional point sets with the optimal order of $L_p$ discrepancy are digit scrambling and symmetrization. In this paper we combine these two techniques and symmetrize $b$-adic Hammersley point sets scrambled with arbitrary permutations. It is already known that these modifications indeed assure that the $L_p$ discrepancy is of optimal order $\mathcal{O}\left(\sqrt{\log{N}}/N\right)$ for $p\in [1,\infty)$ in contrast to the classical Hammersley point set. We prove an exact formula for the $L_2$ discrepancy of these point sets for special permutations. We also present the permutations which lead to the lowest $L_2$ discrepancy for every base $b\in\{2,\dots,27\}$ by employing computer search algorithms.

description: The role of standards in digital preservation is widely acknowledged. The current version of the ePub standard, used for publishing and disseminating eBooks, is ePub3, specifically 3.1 (January 2017). A marked difference from ePub2 is support for fixed layout files and, whilst several different ePub readers are available, not all have upgraded to provide full support for ePub3. In late 2017 and early 2018 the British Library’s digital preservation team undertook research into the impact of using an ePub viewer without explicit support for ePub3 on a mixed sample of ePub3 files. The sample comprised 54 files: 20 of these were of fixed layout, the remainder utilized reflowable layouts. For the analysis, content was accessed using two different open source ePub readers: Calibre, which has a wide user base but does not currently explicitly support ePub3, and Readium, which does explicitly support ePub3. ePub3 files with a reflowable layout broadly rendered to an acceptable standard using both readers. There was one notable exception for both readers, and investigations indicated this was likely due to a problem with the file itself rather than the rendering software. Problems manifested in a more serious way when using Calibre to access just under half of the fixed layout ePub3 files. The rendering of these items inhibited access to intellectual content for example by overlaying it on other content, misrepresenting it, or not including it at all. Other issues that were initially apparent with the other half of the fixed layout sample were mostly resolved by the simple quick fix of switching from ‘page’ view to ‘flow’ view. By contrast, Readium was able to display all of fixed layout files correctly. The research serves as a reminder that whilst standards remain an essential tool in the digital preservation toolbox, updates to a standard may necessitate changes to the rendering software in use. It further underlines the importance of accurate characterization so that repositories can identify formats at a version level or be able to identify items with explicit rendering needs beyond those served by their default rendering viewers. This paper was the runner up for the Best Short Paper award.

Does Pasteurized Donor Human Milk Provide Protection Against Risk of Necrotizing Enterocolitis Among Very Low Birth Weights Infants?
Creators: name: Lightbourne, Teisha
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is a serious condition that occurs in approximately 3 to 10% of very low birth weight infants. Devastatingly, there is a 50% case-fatality rate among those diagnosed with NEC2. The additional cost of hospital charges directly related to medical and surgical treatment of NEC in the very low birth weight infant is $6.5 million a year, or $216,666 per survivor. Human milk (HM), both maternal and donor, provides protective benefits against many morbidities, particularly NEC. Mother’s breastmilk (MBM) is the gold standard for enteral feedings because it is most protective. In the absence of MBM, the AAP supports the use of pasteurized, fortified donor human milk (DBM) as a second choice. The US Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Support Breastfeeding declares that HM, including MBM and DBM, should be utilized more frequently. Formula is considered the third best choice –the last option. The aim of this study is to determine if pasteurized DBM is protective against necrotizing enterocolitis in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants even when fortified with bovine-derived human milk fortifier (HMF).

description: An ordering between the quantum states emerging from a single mode gauge-covariant bosonic Gaussian channel is proven. Specifically, we show that within the set of input density matrices with the same given spectrum, the element passive with respect to the Fock basis (i.e. diagonal with decreasing eigenvalues) produces an output which majorizes all the other outputs emerging from the same set. When applied to pure input states, our finding includes as a special case the result of A. Mari, et al., Nat. Comm. 5, 3826 (2014) which implies that the output associated to the vacuum majorizes the others.

Enhanced Higgs Mass in Compact Supersymmetry

description: The current LHC results make weak scale supersymmetry difficult due to relatively heavy mass of the discovered Higgs boson and the null results of new particle searches. Geometrical supersymmetry breaking from extra dimensions, Scherk-Schwarz mechanism, is possible to accommodate such situations. A concrete example, the Compact Supersymmetry model, has a compressed spectrum ameliorating the LHC bounds and large mixing in the top and scalar top quark sector with $|A_t|\sim 2m_{\tilde{t}}$ which radiatively raises the Higgs mass. While the zero mode contribution of the model has been considered, in this paper we calculate the Kaluza-Klein tower effect to the Higgs mass. Although such contributions are naively expected to be as small as a percent level for 10 TeV Kaluza-Klein modes, we find the effect significantly enhances the radiative correction to the Higgs quartic coupling by from 10 to 50 %. This is mainly because the top quark wave function is pushed out from the brane, which makes the top mass depend on higher powers in the Higgs field. As a result the Higgs mass is enhanced up to 15 GeV from the previous calculation. We also show the whole parameter space is testable at the LHC run II.

Nutrition Education in U.S. Medical Schools: A History and Proposal for the Future
Creators: name: Schille, Colton
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Background: Obesity and obesity related chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and hypertension (HTN) continue to be significant health crises in the United States. Patients largely rely on physicians, not Registered Dietitians (RDs), for the bulk of nutrition-related information. Yet, physicians consistently rate their nutritional counseling skills as poor and have little confidence in their abilities. The lack of nutrition and nutritional counseling in medical school curriculum does not support physicians’ responsibility in addressing obesity and obesity-related chronic disease. Objective: Evaluate to what extent nutrition has been incorporated into medical school curriculum in the past and today; investigate barriers to a more extensive nutrition curriculum; review possibilities for furthering nutrition education into the medical school setting. Design: Narrative review Results: The average hours of nutrition education in medical schools has remained stagnant at an average of 19-22 hours. Increasingly, nutrition education is moving from separate, stand-alone classes towards integration in existing curriculum. Physicians consistently rate their knowledge of and skills in nutrition and nutrition counseling as poor. Physicians recognize their weakness in nutrition, but many barriers stand in the way of nutrition education incorporation. Conclusions: Because hours of nutrition education have remained stagnant for the past 58 years, incorporating nutrition education into existing curriculum with a focus on interdisciplinary learning appears to be the new strategy to increase net nutrition exposure hours. However, absence of nutrition accreditation requirements is the root of the knowledge and skill gap. Advocacy for national nutrition accreditation requirements is essential to foster nutrition-inclusive, integrated curricula.

description: In [1] a new method to measure the speed of light through Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) was introduced. Here, we describe in much more detail the theoretical basis of that method, its implementation, and give some newly updated results about its application to the forecast data. In particular, we will show that SKA will be able to detect a 1% variation (if any) in the speed of light at 3$σ$ level. Smaller signals will be hardly detected by already-planned future galaxy surveys, but we give indications about what sensitivity requirements should a survey fulfill in order to be successful.

description: Biomonitoring is defined as regular measurement of contaminants such as pesticides in the body, or, the measurement of the body burden of chemical compounds or their metabolites (substances produced from chemical reactions with the chemicals in the body), in biological substances such as urine, blood, breast milk, saliva, mucus, nails or hair. Biomonitoring is important as it gives a measure of chemicals in the body through exposure tracking and this information can be used to correlate with information on environmental contamination (hazard tracking) and body contamination (health hazard tracking). Biomonitoring is a tool that is used for human risk assessment due to exposure to harmful chemicals such as pesticides. For many years analysis of pesticide metabolites in humans has been conducted successfully using different analysis methods and biological samples. Invasive procedures were used to collect a biological sample from humans such as blood, and with time non-invasive procedures such as the collection of urine became the gold standard. The biological samples were commonly extracted for analysis using the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer as the pesticide metabolites are usually more polar than the parent pesticides. Collection of urine samples proved to be expensive as transportation and storage of the samples needed a lot of management and expensive equipment such as fridges. Different researches are exploring collection and analysis of hair samples, and it is non expensive and cost-effective. Hair samples do not need a lot of handling and can be stored at room temperature in the dark. For this review, different analysis methods for extracted insecticide metabolites from urine and hair samples, which are non-invasive biological samples, from published studies will be reviewed, compared and discussed. The review will discuss and compare details of the analysis method, the analysis techniques, the sensitivity ad selectivity of the analysis and their costs.

Narrative Review of Artificial Sweeteners and their Role in Type 2 Diabetes Self-Management: Clinical and Policy Implications

description: Despite the relative consistency of recommendations from national health organizations, the safety of AS consumption is controversial. For every study or review that indicates AS are safe and healthy to consume there is an opposing study that concludes the evidence is inconclusive. Given the prevalence of diabetes in the US and the severity of its complications, it is important for clinical practitioners and dietitians to use the most up-to-date research to guide nutrition recommendations for patients living with this chronic disease. Given the scope of the medical literature, practitioners will reasonably rely on the data summaries and formal recommendations of national organizations. In this review we will 1) qualitatively asses the evidence cited by the AND, AHA, and ADA in their recommendations for AS consumption and 2) evaluate the rapidly growing body of literature on AS that may run counter to conclusions of studies forming the basis of nutrition recommendations. We will end with a discussion of the implications these findings have for individuals living with diabetes as well as the dietitians charged with their care.
Edge states and phase diagram for graphene under polarized light

description: We investigate the topological phase transitions in graphene under the modulation of circularly polarized light, by analyzing the changes of edge states and its topological structures. A full phase diagram, with up to ten different topological phases, is presented in the parameter space spanned by the driving frequency and light strength. We find that the high-Chern number behavior is very common in the driven system. While the one-photon resonance can create the chiral edge states in the $π-$gap, the two-photon resonance will induce the counter-propagating edge modes in the zero-energy gap. When the driving light strength is strong, the number and even the chirality of the edge states may change in the $π-$gap. The robustness of the edge states to disorder potential are also examined. We close by discussing the feasibility of experimental proposals.

Childhood Lead Poisoning and Nutrition: An Overview and Preliminary Media Content Analysis Following the Flint Water Crisis

description: Lead poisoning has been one of the most significant environmental health threats to face pediatric populations over the last several decades. Lead is a potent neurotoxin and can cause especially severe consequences to a child’s growth and cognitive development. Not only are children more vulnerable to lead exposure than adults, but the burden of lead poisoning also disproportionately affects historically underserved and marginalized populations. These populations are also more likely to have nutritional deficiencies that can increase lead absorption. Although bans on leaded paint and gasoline have contributed to an overall decline in blood lead levels in children, water is an emerging source of childhood lead exposure due to aging infrastructure and changes in water sources. A relevant example of this is the Water Crisis in Flint, Michigan after the town’s water supply was changed to the Flint River in April 2014. While details of this public health emergency have been heavily covered in the media, the role of nutrition status is not frequently identified as a critical factor in lead poisoning. The purpose of this paper is to review the impact of lead poisoning on child health, the role of nutrition and diet, and to analyze the content of selected media sources reporting on the Flint water crisis.

Socioeconomic Status, Depressive Symptoms, and Academic Achievement: A Protocol for a Meta-Analysis of Individual Participant Data

description: Socioeconomic status (SES) is one of the most highly researched constructs in developmental science, yet important questions underly how to best model it. The scholarly discussion on how to operationalize SES has primarily centered on which components to include whereas far less attention has been given to the nature of their relations. That is, are developmental relations with components of SES always in the same direction or does the direction of association change at different levels of SES? This question is important to address because the majority of research on SES overemphasizes deficit models of lower SES and underemphasizes the struggles of higher SES youth and families. Therefore, evidence is less precise on how different levels of SES act as a promotive or risk factor for development. In this dissertation, I will conduct a meta-analysis using individual participant data (IPD) to examine two research questions: 1) Does a nonmonotonic model of the relations between components of SES (i.e., income, education, and occupation), depressive symptoms, and academic achievement fit better than a monotonic model? and 2) Is the magnitude of relation moderated by developmental period (e.g., childhood, adulthood), sex (i.e., male, female), and race/ethnicity (e.g., Black, Latino)? I will use a one-stage meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) approach to pool across nationally-representative IPD datasets from the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR). I hypothesize that there will be more support for a nonmonotonic model compared to a monotonic model. Moderation analyses will be exploratory.
