MORAL DISENGAGEMENT IN ADJUDICATED JUVENILES: THE ROLE OF SELF- CONTROL AND SOCIAL LEARNING
Creators: name: Carpenter, Jennifer M.
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2024

description:
The purpose of this study is to replicate and extend prior research by Dhingra et al. on factors affecting moral disengagement in adjudicated juveniles. After replicating prior research, I then examine additional theoretical factors in the causes of moral disengagement, specifically the effects of social learning and self-control. I also extend prior cross-sectional research by analyzing longitudinal data. Data for this paper comes from the Pathways to Desistance study, a multisite study of over 1300 adjudicated juveniles. Exact replication of the prior Dhingra study was not possible, but similar results were obtained. The additional regressions then added measures indexing self-control and association with delinquent peers, both of which were found to be predictive of moral disengagement in juveniles. Next, a longitudinal regression analysis was run to address the issue of causal order using the first and second waves of Pathways data. The results show that past moral disengagement was predictive of future moral disengagement in the study sample. Further, the longitudinal results do not provide any evidence that moral disengagement develops in juveniles in response to social factors, contrary to the conclusions of the Dhingra study. Rather, the findings suggest that moral disengagement during adolescence is driven instead by Factor 1 psychopathy, in addition to prior levels of moral disengagement.


These longitudinal findings are important because they call into question the role of social factors and suggest that interventions designed to disrupt moral disengagement may benefit from an increased focus on the treatment of early psychopathy.

Moral Injury And Its Connection To Compassion Fatigue, Compassion Satisfaction, And Burnout
Creators: name: Floyd, Catherine
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2024

description:
Recent research demonstrates the need to examine the concepts of moral injury and professional quality of life (compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction, and burnout) in police officers. Building on these findings, the current study aims to determine the prevalence of these psychological concepts in a large municipal police department, as well as potential group differences in the prevalence of these concepts. Further, the study explores whether the psychological concepts of moral injury and compassion fatigue, also known as secondary traumatic stress, are associated within the sample of police officers. Finally, the study examined the potential of moral injury being a significant predictor of compassion fatigue (Papazoglou & Chopko, 2017). Initial Spearmans correlation coefficient analyses found significant relationships between moral injury and compassion fatigue. Exploratory linear regression analyses determined that moral injury and burnout consistently predicted compassion fatigue, even while controlling for sex, education level, and years of experience.

description: We propose a new no-go theorem by proving the impossibility of constructing a deterministic quantum circuit that iterates a unitary oracle by calling it only once. Different schemes are provided to bypass this result and to approximately realize the iteration. The optimal scheme is also studied. An interesting observation is that for large number of iterations, a trivial strategy like using the identity channel has the optimal performance, and preprocessing, postprocessing, or using resources like entanglement does not help at all. Intriguingly, the number of iterations, when being large enough, does not affect the performance of the proposed schemes.

description: ABSTRACT Francisella tularensis causes tularemia and is a potential biothreat. Given the limited antibiotics for treating tularemia and the possible use of antibiotic-resistant strains as a biowarfare agent, new antibacterial agents are needed. AR-12 is an FDA-approved investigational new drug (IND) compound that induces autophagy and has shown host-directed, broad-spectrum activity in vitro against Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and F. tularensis . We have shown that AR-12 encapsulated within acetalated dextran (Ace-DEX) microparticles (AR-12/MPs) significantly reduces host cell cytotoxicity compared to that with free AR-12, while retaining the ability to control S. Typhimurium within infected human macrophages. In the present study, the toxicity and efficacy of AR-12/MPs in controlling virulent type A F. tularensis SchuS4 infection were examined in vitro and in vivo . No significant toxicity of blank MPs or AR-12/MPs was observed in lung histology sections when the formulations were given intranasally to uninfected mice. In histology sections from the lungs of intranasally infected mice treated with the formulations, increased macrophage infiltration was observed for AR-12/MPs, with or without suboptimal gentamicin treatment, but not for blank MPs, soluble AR-12, or suboptimal gentamicin alone. AR-12/MPs dramatically reduced the burden of F. tularensis in infected human macrophages, in a manner similar to that of free AR-12. However, in vivo , AR-12/MPs significantly enhanced the survival of F. tularensis SchuS4-infected mice compared to that seen with free AR-12. In combination with suboptimal gentamicin treatment, AR-12/MPs further improved the survival of F. tularensis SchuS4-infected mice. These studies provide support for Ace-DEX-encapsulated AR-12 as a promising new therapeutic agent for tularemia.

New solutions of exotic charged black holes and their stability

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We find a class of charged black hole solutions in third order Lovelock Gravity. To obtain this class of solutions, we are not confined to the usual assumption of maximal symmetry on the horizon and will consider the solution whose boundary is Einstein space with supplementary conditions on its Weyl tensor. The Weyl tensor of such exotic horizons exposes two charge-like parameter to the solution. These parameters in addition with the electric charge, cause different features in compare with the charged solution with constant-curvature horizon. For this class of asymptotically (A)dS solutions, the electric charge dominates the behavior of the metric as r goes to zero, and thus the central singularity is always timelike. We also compute the thermodynamic quantities for these solutions and will show that the first law of thermodynamics is satisfied. We also show that the extreme black holes with nonconstant-curvature horizons whose Ricci scalar are zero or a positive constant could exist depending on the value of the electric charge and charged-like parameters. Finally, we investigate the stability of the black holes by analyzing the behavior of free energy and heat capacity specially in the limits of small and large horizon radius. We will show that in contrast with charged solution with constant-curvature horizon, a phase transition occurs between very small and small black holes from a stable phase to an unstable one, while the large black holes show stability to both perturbative and non-perturbative fluctuations.

description: In engineering applications, one of the major challenges today is to develop reliable and robust control algorithms for complex networked systems. Controllability and observability of such systems play a crucial role in the design process. The underlying network structure may contain symmetries -- caused for example by the coupling of identical building blocks -- and these symmetries lead to repeated eigenvalues in a generic way. This complicates the design of controllers since repeated eigenvalues might decrease the controllability of the system. In this paper, we will analyze the relationship between the controllability and observability of complex networked systems and graph symmetries using results from representation theory. Furthermore, we will propose an algorithm to compute sparse input and output matrices based on projections onto the isotypic components. We will illustrate our results with the aid of two guiding examples, a network with $ D_4 $ symmetry and the Petersen graph.

description: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis has emerged as a promising molecular epidemiological method for investigating health care-associated outbreaks. Here, we used NGS to investigate a 3-year outbreak of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDRAB) at a large academic burn center. A reference genome from the index case was generated using de novo assembly of PacBio reads. Forty-six MDRAB isolates were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and sequenced using an Illumina platform. After mapping to the index case reference genome, four samples were excluded due to low coverage, leaving 42 samples for further analysis. Multilocus sequence types (MLST) and the presence of acquired resistance genes were also determined from the sequencing data. A transmission network was inferred from genomic and epidemiological data using a Bayesian framework. Based on single-nucleotide variant (SNV) differences, this MDRAB outbreak represented three sequential outbreaks caused by distinct clones. The first and second outbreaks were caused by sequence type 2 (ST2), while the third outbreak was caused by ST79. For the second outbreak, the MLST and PFGE results were discordant. However, NGS-based SNV typing detected a recombination event and consequently enabled a more accurate phylogenetic analysis. The distribution of resistance genes varied among the three outbreaks. The first- and second-outbreak strains possessed a bla OXA-23-like group, while the third-outbreak strains harbored a bla OXA-40-like group. NGS-based analysis demonstrated the superior resolution of outbreak transmission networks for MDRAB and provided insight into the mechanisms of strain diversification between sequential outbreaks through recombination.

We concentrate on charmonium and bottomonium spectra, where several new states, difficult to understand as simple quark-antiquark pairs, have been reported by different experimental collaborations. The pivotal role played by entangled meson-meson thresholds is emphasized.

description: ABSTRACT Lopinavir-ritonavir is frequently prescribed to HIV-1-infected women during pregnancy. Decreased lopinavir exposure has been reported during pregnancy, but the clinical significance of this reduction is uncertain. This analysis aimed to evaluate the need for lopinavir dose adjustment during pregnancy. We conducted a population pharmacokinetic analysis of lopinavir and ritonavir concentrations collected from 84 pregnant and 595 nonpregnant treatment-naive and -experienced HIV-1-infected subjects enrolled in six clinical studies. Lopinavir-ritonavir doses in the studies ranged between 400/100 and 600/150 mg twice daily. In addition, linear mixed-effect analysis was used to compare the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h (AUC 0–12 ) and concentration prior to dosing ( C predose ) in pregnant women and nonpregnant subjects. The relationship between lopinavir exposure and virologic suppression in pregnant women and nonpregnant subjects was evaluated. Population pharmacokinetic analysis estimated 17% higher lopinavir clearance in pregnant women than in nonpregnant subjects. Lopinavir clearance values postpartum were 26.4% and 37.1% lower than in nonpregnant subjects and pregnant women, respectively. As the tablet formulation was estimated to be 20% more bioavailable than the capsule formulation, no statistically significant differences between lopinavir exposure in pregnant women receiving the tablet formulation and nonpregnant subjects receiving the capsule formulation were identified. In the range of lopinavir AUC 0–12 or C predose values observed in the third trimester, there was no correlation between lopinavir exposure and viral load or proportion of subjects with virologic suppression. Similar efficacy was observed between pregnant women and nonpregnant subjects receiving lopinavir-ritonavir at 400/100 mg twice daily. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic results support the use of a lopinavir-ritonavir 400/100-mg twice-daily dose during pregnancy.

description: We propose a dark energy model where a scalar field $ϕ$ has nonlinear self-interactions in the presence of a dilatonic coupling with the Ricci scalar. This belongs to a sub-class of theories beyond Horndeski, which accommodates covariant Galileons and Brans-Dicke theories as specific cases. We derive conditions under which the scalar sound speed squared $c_{\rm s}^2$ is positive from the radiation era to today. Since $c_{\rm s}^2$ remains to be smaller than the order of 1, the deviation from Horndeski theories does not cause heavy oscillations of gauge-invariant gravitational potentials. In this case, the evolution of matter perturbations at low redshifts is similar to that in the coupled dark energy scenario with an enhanced gravitational interaction. On the spherically symmetric background with a matter source, the existence of field self-interactions suppresses the propagation of fifth force inside a Vainshtein radius. We estimate an allowed parameter space in which the model can be compatible with solar system constraints while satisfying conditions for the cosmological viability of background and perturbations.

description: ABSTRACT Administering polymyxin antibiotics in a traditional fashion may be ineffective against Gram-negative ESKAPE ( Enterococcus faecium , Staphylococcus aureus , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Acinetobacter baumannii , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Enterobacter species) pathogens. Here, we explored increasing the dose intensity of polymyxin B against two strains of Acinetobacter baumannii in the hollow-fiber infection model. The following dosage regimens were simulated for polymyxin B ( t 1/2 = 8 h): non-loading dose (1.43 mg/kg of body weight every 12 h [q12h]), loading dose (2.22 mg/kg q12h for 1 dose and then 1.43 mg/kg q12h), front-loading dose (3.33 mg/kg q12h for 1 dose followed by 1.43 mg/kg q12h), burst (5.53 mg/kg for 1 dose), and supraburst (18.4 mg/kg for 1 dose). Against both A. baumannii isolates, a rapid initial decline in the total population was observed within the first 6 h of polymyxin exposure, whereby greater polymyxin B exposure resulted in greater maximal killing of −1.25, −1.43, −2.84, −2.84, and −3.40 log 10 CFU/ml within the first 6 h. Unexpectedly, we observed a paradoxical effect whereby higher polymyxin B exposures dramatically increased resistant subpopulations that grew on agar containing up to 10 mg/liter of polymyxin B over 336 h. High drug exposure also proliferated polymyxin-dependent growth. A cost-benefit pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship between 24-h killing and 336-h resistance was explored. The intersecting point, where the benefit of bacterial killing was equal to the cost of resistance, was an f AUC 0–24 (area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h for the free, unbound fraction of drug) of 38.5 mg · h/liter for polymyxin B. Increasing the dose intensity of polymyxin B resulted in amplification of resistance, highlighting the need to utilize polymyxins as part of a combination against high-bacterial-density A. baumannii infections.

description: One of the long-standing research problems on logic programming is to treat the cut predicate in a logical, high-level way. We argue that this problem can be solved by adopting linear logic and choice-disjunctive goal formulas of the form $G_0 \add G_1$ where $G_0, G_1$ are goals. These goals have the following intended semantics: $choose$ the true disjunct $G_i$ and execute $G_i$ where $i (= 0\ {\rm or}\ 1)$, while $discarding$ the unchosen disjunct. Note that only one goal can remain alive during execution. These goals thus allow us to specify mutually exclusive tasks in a high-level way.

description: The Keldysh-ordered full counting statistics is a quasi-probability distribution describing the fluctuations of a time-integrated quantum observable. While it is well known that this distribution can fail to be positive, the interpretation and origin of this negativity has been somewhat unclear. Here, we show how the full counting statistics can be tied to trajectories through Hilbert space, and how this directly connects negative quasi-probabilities to an unusual interference effect. Our findings are illustrated with the example of energy fluctuations in a driven bosonic resonator; we discuss how negative quasi-probability here could be detected experimentally using superconducting microwave circuits.

description: We study a quantum information metric (or fidelity susceptibility) in conformal field theories with respect to a small perturbation by a primary operator. We argue that its gravity dual is approximately given by a volume of maximal time slice in an AdS spacetime when the perturbation is exactly marginal. We confirm our claim in several examples.

description: Acupuncture is an affordable and widely utilised treatment in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that has been used for thousands of years with empirical evidence of effectiveness. The significant clinical efficacy to recover and repair a variety of neurological diseases, especially neurodegenerative diseases is observed. Recently, investigating the intrinsic mechanisms of its clinical effects through imaging like fMRI has become an increasingly popular research, contributing to the proven use of acupuncture for neurological diseases. Many neurological diseases are characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, injury and some closely related to old age, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). This review aims to summarize the current fMRI with acupuncture for neurological diseases.

description: Safe and effective therapies are urgently needed to treat polymyxin-resistant KPC-producing K. pneumoniae and suppress the emergence of resistance. We investigated the pharmacodynamics of polymyxin B, rifampin, and meropenem alone and as polymyxin B-based double and triple combinations against KPC-producing K. pneumoniae . The rate and extent of killing with polymyxin B (1-128mg/L), rifampin (2-16mg/L), and meropenem (10-120mg/L) were evaluated against polymyxin B-susceptible (PB S ) and -resistant (PB R ) clinical isolates using 48h static time-kills. Additionally, humanized triple drug regimens of polymyxin B (C ss : 0.5, 1, 2mg/L), rifampin 600mg every 12 or 8h, and meropenem 1 or 2g every 8h dosed as an extended 3h infusion were simulated over 48h using a one-compartment in vitro dynamic infection model. Serial bacterial counts were measured to quantify pharmacodynamic effect. Population analysis profiles (PAPs) were used to assess the emergence of polymyxin B resistance. Monotherapy was ineffective against both isolates. Polymyxin B with rifampin demonstrated early bactericidal activity against the PB S isolate followed by regrowth by 48h. Bactericidal activity was sustained at all polymyxin B concentrations ≥2 mg/L in combination with meropenem. No two-drug combinations were effective against the PB R isolate, but all simulated triple-drug regimens showed early bactericidal activity by 8h that was sustained over 48h against both strains. PAPs did not reveal the emergence of resistant subpopulations. The triple drug combination of polymyxin B, rifampin, and meropenem may be a viable consideration for the treatment of PB R KPC-producing K. pneumoniae . Further investigation is warranted to optimize triple combination therapy.
Multiquark contributions to charm baryon spectroscopy

description: We study possible multiquark contributions to the charm baryon spectrum by considering higher order Fock space components. For this purpose we perform two different calculations. In a first approach we do a coupled-channel calculation of the $ND$ system looking for molecular states. In a second step we allow for the coupling to a heavy baryon--light meson two-hadron system looking for compact exotic five--quark structures. Both calculations have been done within the framework of a chiral constituent quark model. The model, tuned in the description of the baryon and meson spectra as well as the $NN$ interaction, provides parameter-free predictions for charm $+1$ molecular or compact two-hadron systems. Unlike the $N \bar D$ system, no sharp quark-Pauli effects are found. However, the existence of different two-hadron thresholds for the five-quark system will make the coupled-channel dynamics relevant. Only a few channels are candidates to lodge molecular or compact hadrons with a five-quark structure, being specially relevant the $(T)J^P=(0)1/2^-$ and $(T)J^P=(2)5/2^-$ channels. The identification of molecular states and/or compact hadrons with multiquark components either with or without exotic quantum numbers is a challenge of different collaborations like $\bar {\rm P}$ANDA, LHCb, ExHIC or J-PARC.

description: This article studies sharp norm estimates for the commutator of pseudo-differential operators with multiplication operators on closed Heisenberg manifolds. In particular, we obtain a Calderon commutator estimate: If $D$ is a first-order operator in the Heisenberg calculus and $f$ is Lipschitz in the Carnot-Caratheodory metric, then $[D,f]$ extends to an $L^2$-bounded operator. Using interpolation, it implies sharp weak--Schatten class properties for the commutator between zeroth order operators and Hölder continuous functions. We present applications to sub-Riemannian spectral triples on Heisenberg manifolds as well as to the regularization of a functional studied by Englis-Guo-Zhang.

Minimal classes of graphs of unbounded clique-width defined by finitely many forbidden induced subgraphs

description: We discover new hereditary classes of graphs that are minimal (with respect to set inclusion) of unbounded clique-width. The new examples include split permutation graphs and bichain graphs. Each of these classes is characterised by a finite list of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs. These, therefore, disprove a conjecture due to Daligault, Rao and Thomasse from 2010 claiming that all such minimal classes must be defined by infinitely many forbidden induced subgraphs. In the same paper, Daligault, Rao and Thomasse make another conjecture that every hereditary class of unbounded clique-width must contain a labelled infinite antichain. We show that the two example classes we consider here satisfy this conjecture. Indeed, they each contain a canonical labelled infinite antichain, which leads us to propose a stronger conjecture: that every hereditary class of graphs that is minimal of unbounded clique-width contains a canonical labelled infinite antichain.

Switching in heteroclinic networks

Subjects: subject: Dynamical Systems (math.DS)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We study the dynamics near heteroclinic networks for which all eigenvalues of the linearization at the equilibria are real. A common connection and an assumption on the geometry of its incoming and outgoing directions exclude even the weakest forms of switching (i.e. along this connection). The form of the global transition maps, and thus the type of the heteroclinic cycle, plays a crucial role in this. We look at two examples in $\mathbb{R}^5$, the House and Bowtie networks, to illustrate complex dynamics that may occur when either of these conditions is broken. For the House network, there is switching along the common connection, while for the Bowtie network we find switching along a cycle.

description: Since first introduced by John von Neumann, the notion of cellular automaton has grown into a key concept in computer science, physics and theoretical biology. In its classical setting, a cellular automaton is a transformation of the set of all configurations of a regular grid such that the image of any particular cell of the grid is determined by a fixed local function that only depends on a fixed finite neighbourhood. In recent years, with the introduction of a generalised definition in terms of transformations of the form $τ: A^G \to A^G$ (where $G$ is any group and $A$ is any set), the theory of cellular automata has been greatly enriched by its connections with group theory and topology. In this paper, we begin the finite semigroup theoretic study of cellular automata by investigating the rank (i.e. the cardinality of a smallest generating set) of the semigroup $\text{CA}(\mathbb{Z}_n; A)$ consisting of all cellular automata over the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_n$ and a finite set $A$. In particular, we determine this rank when $n$ is equal to $p$, $2^k$ or $2^kp$, for any odd prime $p$ and $k \geq 1$, and we give upper and lower bounds for the general case.
