description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the nexus between mitochondrial function and kidney injury by using a dietary-induced obese minipig model. Female Lee-Sung minipigs feeding a high-fat diet (HFD) for 6 months exhibited obesity, hyperglycaemia and dyslipidemia. HFD elevated the levels of plasma biomarkers related to renal injury, including symmetric dimethylarginine, creatinine and urea nitrogen. An extensive structural change in tubules and glomeruli was observed in HFD-fed pigs. A great amount of triacylglycerol was accumulated in HFD kidney compared to control kidney, whereas a reduction of ATP level and antioxidant capacity were exhibited in HFD kidney. Moreover, HFD altered the expressions of mitochondrial-related protein in renal cortex. To conclude, long-term HFD feeding to Lee-Sung minipigs induced obesity and kidney injury accompanied by abnormal mitochondrial functions in the renal cortex, suggesting an interrelationship with renal disease progression.

description: The human polyomavirus, JCV, causes the fatal demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in immunocompromised patients. We found that the serotonergic receptor 5HT2AR could act as the cellular receptor for JCV on human glial cells. The 5HT2Areceptor antagonists inhibited JCV infection, and monoclonal antibodies directed at 5HT2Areceptors blocked infection of glial cells by JCV, but not by SV40. Transfection of 5HT2Areceptor–negative HeLa cells with a 5HT2A receptor rescued virus infection, and this infection was blocked by antibody to the 5HT2A receptor. A tagged 5HT2A receptor colocalized with labeled JCV in an endosomal compartment following internalization. Serotonin receptor antagonists may thus be useful in the treatment of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy.

description: Heart failure (HF) is a major and growing public health problem in the United States. Approximately 5 million patients in this country have HF, and over 550,000 patients are diagnosed with HF for the first time each year. The disorder is the primary reason for 12 to 15 million office visits and 6.5 million hospital days each year. From 1990 to 1999, the annual number of hospitalizations has increased from approximately 810,000 to over 1 million for HF as a primary diagnosis and from 2.4 to 3.6 million for HF as a primary or secondary diagnosis. In 2001, nearly 53 000 patients died of HF as a primary cause. The number of HF deaths has increased steadily despite advances in treatment, in part because of increasing numbers of patients with HF due to better treatment and “salvage” of patients with acute myocardial infarctions (MIs) earlier in life. Heart failure is primarily a condition of the elderly, and thus the widely recognized “aging of the population” also contributes to the increasing incidence of HF. The incidence of HF approaches 10 per 1000 population after age 65, and approximately 80% of patients hospitalized with HF are more than 65 years old. Heart failure is the most common Medicare diagnosis-related group (i.e., hospital discharge diagnosis), and more Medicare dollars are spent for the diagnosis and treatment of HF than for any other diagnosis. The total estimated direct and indirect costs for HF in 2005 were approximately $27.9 billion. In the United States, approximately $2.9 billion annually is spent on drugs for the treatment of HF.
Learning Output Kernels for Multi-Task Problems

description: Simultaneously solving multiple related learning tasks is beneficial under a variety of circumstances, but the prior knowledge necessary to correctly model task relationships is rarely available in practice. In this paper, we develop a novel kernel-based multi-task learning technique that automatically reveals structural inter-task relationships. Building over the framework of output kernel learning (OKL), we introduce a method that jointly learns multiple functions and a low-rank multi-task kernel by solving a non-convex regularization problem. Optimization is carried out via a block coordinate descent strategy, where each subproblem is solved using suitable conjugate gradient (CG) type iterative methods for linear operator equations. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated on pharmacological and collaborative filtering data.

description: Abstract Background Violence among adolescents is an important public health problem in the United States. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of having been engaged in physical fighting on school property and associated factors of the behavior among school-going adolescents in the United States. Methods This study was based on secondary analysis of the United States Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) conducted in 2005. The sampling frame included all private and public school in the country, stratified by region and urbanicity based on the US census bureau data. Frequencies and proportions were obtained for the outcome and explanatory variables. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the level of association between explanatory variables and the outcome (having been involved in a physical fight). Results Of the 13,857 respondents, 13.5% (18.2% for males and 8.8% for females) reported physical fighting onschool property in the last 12 months to the survey. Males were more likely to have been in a physical fight than females (OR = 2.23; 95% CI [1.89, 2.63]). Respondents aged 17 years or older were less likely to report physical fighting than those who were 14 years or younger. Compared to Whites, American Indians or Alaska Natives, Blacks, Native Hawaii or other Pacific Islanders, and Hispanics were more likely to report physical fighting on school property (OR = 2.11; 95% CI [1.22, 3.66], OR = 1.72; 95% CI [1.42, 2.0], OR = 2.18; 95% CI [1.01, 4.79], and OR = 1.74; 95% CI [1.41, 2.16] respectively). Physical fighting on school property was also positively associated with cigarette smoking (OR = 1.70; 95% CI [1.37, 2.10]), drinking alcohol (OR = 1.45; 95% CI [1.20, 1.76]), use of illegal drugs (OR = 1.73; 95% CI [1.42, 2.12]), having had property stolen or deliberately damaged on school property (OR = 2.06; 95% CI [1.74, 2.44]), having been threatened or injured with a weapon on school property (OR = 2.63; 95% CI [2.06, 3.34]), and playing videogame three or more hours a day (OR = 1.29; 95% CI [1.07, 1.56]). Conclusion These findings suggest that physical fighting among US High School students is widespread and positively associated with victimization (having been threatened or injured with a weapon on school property) and other risky behaviors such as smoking, alcohol and drugs use. Intervention programs to prevent/control those risky behaviors as well as further attention on the association between physical fighting and victimization at school through longitudinal research are warranted.

description: Thermal buildings simulation softwares need meteorological files in thermal comfort, energetic evaluation studies. Few tools can make significant meteorological data available such as generated typical year, representative days, or artificial meteorological database. This paper deals about the presentation of a new software, RUNEOLE, used to provide weather data in buildings applications with a method adapted to all kind of climates. RUNEOLE associates three modules of description, modelling and generation of weather data. The statistical description of an existing meteorological database makes typical representative days available and leads to the creation of model libraries. The generation module leads to the generation of non existing sequences. This software tends to be usable for the searchers and designers, by means of interactivity, facilitated use and easy communication. The conceptual basis of this tool will be exposed and we'll propose two examples of applications in building physics for tropical humid climates.

description: The 13th St Gallen International Breast Cancer Conference (2013) Expert Panel reviewed and endorsed substantial new evidence on aspects of the local and regional therapies for early breast cancer, supporting less extensive surgery to the axilla and shorter durations of radiation therapy. It refined its earlier approach to the classification and management of luminal disease in the absence of amplification or overexpression of the Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (HER2) oncogene, while retaining essentially unchanged recommendations for the systemic adjuvant therapy of HER2-positive and ‘triple-negative’ disease. The Panel again accepted that conventional clinico-pathological factors provided a surrogate subtype classification, while noting that in those areas of the world where multi-gene molecular assays are readily available many clinicians prefer to base chemotherapy decisions for patients with luminal disease on these genomic results rather than the surrogate subtype definitions. Several multi-gene molecular assays were recognized as providing accurate and reproducible prognostic information, and in some cases prediction of response to chemotherapy. Cost and availability preclude their application in many environments at the present time. Broad treatment recommendations are presented. Such recommendations do not imply that each Panel member agrees: indeed, among more than 100 questions, only one (trastuzumab duration) commanded 100% agreement. The various recommendations in fact carried differing degrees of support, as reflected in the nuanced wording of the text below and in the votes recorded in supplementary Appendix S1, available at Annals of Oncology online. Detailed decisions on treatment will as always involve clinical consideration of disease extent, host factors, patient preferences and social and economic constraints.

description: Astrophysical sources of gravitational waves, such as binary neutron star and black hole mergers or core-collapse supernovae, can drive relativistic outflows, giving rise to non-thermal high-energy emission. High-energy neutrinos are signatures of such outflows. The detection of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos from common sources could help establish the connection between the dynamics of the progenitor and the properties of the outflow. We searched for associated emission of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos from astrophysical transients with minimal assumptions using data from Advanced LIGO from its first observing run O1, and data from the Antares and IceCube neutrino observatories from the same time period. We focused on candidate events whose astrophysical origins could not be determined from a single messenger. We found no significant coincident candidate, which we used to constrain the rate density of astrophysical sources dependent on their gravitational-wave and neutrino emission processes.

description: We calculate the nonequilibrium conductance through a molecule or a quantum dot in which the occupation of the relevant electronic level is coupled with intensity $λ$ to a phonon mode, and also to two conducting leads. The system is described by the Anderson-Holstein Hamiltonian. We solve the problem using the Keldysh formalism and the non-crossing approximation (NCA) for both, the electron-electron and the electron-phonon interactions. We obtain a moderate decrease of the Kondo temperature $T_K$ with $λ$ for fixed renormalized energy of the localized level $\tilde{E_d}$. The meaning and value of $\tilde{E_d}$ are discussed. The spectral density of localized electrons shows in addition to the Kondo peak of width $2 T_K$, satellites of this peak shifted by multiples of the phonon frequency $ ω_0$. The nonequilibrium conductance as a function of bias voltage $V_b$ at small temperatures, also displays peaks at multiples of $ω_0$ in addition to the central dominant Kondo peak near $V_b=0$.

description: A new family of nanoscale materials on the basis of dispersed networks of cross-linked ionic and nonionic hydrophilic polymers is being developed. One example is the nanosized cationic network of cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and polyethyleneimine (PEI), PEO-cl-PEI nanogel. Interaction of anionic amphiphilic molecules or oligonucleotides with PEO-cl-PEI results in formation of nanocomposite materials in which the hydrophobic regions from polyion-complexes are joined by the hydrophilic PEO chains. Formation of polyion-complexes leads to the collapse of the dispersed gel particles. However, the complexes form stable aqueous dispersions due to the stabilizing effect of the PEO chain. These systems allow for immobilization of negatively charged biologically active compounds such as retinoic acid, indomethacin and oligonucleotides (bound to polycation chains) or hydrophobic molecules (incorporated into nonpolar regions of polyion–surfactant complexes). The nanogel particles carrying biological active compounds have been modified with polypeptide ligands to enhance receptor-mediated delivery. Efficient cellular uptake and intracellular release of oligonucleotides immobilized in PEO-cl-PEI nanogel have been demonstrated. Antisense activity of an oligonucleotide in a cell model was elevated as a result of formulation of oligonucleotide with the nanogel. This delivery system has a potential of enhancing oral and brain bioavailability of oligonucleotides as demonstrated using polarized epithelial and brain microvessel endothelial cell monolayers.

description: We extend the pseudorandomness of random walks on expander graphs using the sticky random walk. Golowich and Vadhan recently showed that expander random walks can fool all symmetric functions in total variation distance (TVD) upto an O(λ pp) error in total variation distance, where lambda is the second largest eigenvalue of the expander and p is the size of the arbitrary alphabet used to label the vertices. It has been conjectured that the dependency on the p term is not tight.

In this paper, we resolve the conjecture in the affirmative for a family of expanders. We present a generalization of Guruswami and Kumar's sticky random walk for which prior results predicts a TVD upper bound of O(λ pp) using a Fourier analytic approach. For this family of graphs, we use a combinatorial approach involving the Krawtchouk functions to derive a strengthened TVD of O(λ). Furthermore, we present equivalencies between instances of the generalized sticky random walk, and, using linear-algebraic techniques, show that the generalized sticky random walk is an infinite family of expanders.

description: Redes wireless oferecem maior mobilidade e praticidade na configuração da comunicação entre dispositivos, mas tais redes também são mais propensas a congestionamentos ocasionados pela sobreposição do alcance de rádio dos nós. Esses problemas são mais intensos em redes adhoc, dado que não há suporte de infraestrutura de rede cabeada para as comunicações entre nós, o que faz com que mais ondas de rádio trafeguem no meio compartilhado. Além disso, a alta mobilidade dos nós das redes wireless adhoc intensifica congestionamentos de rede, pois há maior instabilidade nos enlaces wireless, perdas de pacotes, e retransmissões na rede. Esta investigação de doutorado levanta a hipótese de que existe um número ótimo de nós encaminhadores K, capazes de melhorar o desempenho das redes wireless adhoc através da mitigação de congestionamentos ocasionados pela sobreposição espacial nas comunicações wireless. Em paralelo a hipótese, concebemos uma solução cooperativa baseada em supressão nodal para selecionar os K ótimos nós encaminhadores. Resultados preliminares indicam que  a hipótese da existência do subconjunto K ótimo global  é valida, pois a solução proposta consegue encontrar um subconjunto de nós encaminhadores que melhora o desempenho da rede wireless.

description: Research shows that a large percentage of internet users in the United States have searched for health-related topics online. The National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health created guidelines to help the public evaluate health information on the internet. Librarians use these guidelines and refer the public to these resources to high quality, authoritative information. Librarians involved in creating consumer health websites or contributing to these sites can also use these criteria to ensure their online information meets recommendations for high quality, authoritative sources of health information. A team of academic health sciences librarians have been collaborating for ten years with physicians and other healthcare professionals to support a local health radio talk show that aims to provide health information in a manner that is comforting, convenient, and easy to understand.  As part of this collaboration, the librarians provide consumer health information on a blog website and other social media that accompany the radio show.  Recent changes in the roles and responsibilities of the librarians led the librarian team to re-apply the guidelines.  Not only has the librarian team begun to contribute new content to the blog, themselves, but the blog is now more than ten years old, necessitating that the team consider the implications of the older information provided.  This presentation will go through the steps taken to evaluate this consumer health blog website, what was discovered, and how librarians are addressing these issues.
The Vanishing of Iwasawa's $\mu$-Invariant Implies the Weak Leopoldt Conjecture

description: Let $K$ denote a number field containing a primitive $p$-th root of unity; if $p = 2$, then we assume $K$ to be totally imaginary. If $K_\infty/K$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension such that no prime above $p$ splits completely in $K_\infty/K$, then the vanishing of Iwasawa's invariant $\mu(K_\infty/K)$ implies that the weak Leopoldt Conjecture holds for $K_\infty/K$. This is actually known due to a result of Ueda, which appears to have been forgotten. We present an elementary proof which is based on a reflection formula from class field theory. In the second part of the article, we prove a generalisation in the context of non-commutative Iwasawa theory: we consider admissible $p$-adic Lie extensions of number fields, and we derive a variant for fine Selmer groups of Galois representations over admissible $p$-adic Lie extensions.

description: During the Cassini spacecraft's flyby of Jupiter (October, 2000-March, 2001), the Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (UVIS) produced an extensive dataset consisting of 3,349 spectrally dispersed images of the Io plasma torus. Here we present an example of the raw data and representative EUV spectra (561Å-1181Å) of the torus, obtained on October 1, 2000 and November 14, 2000. For most of the flyby period, the entire Io torus fit within the UVIS field-of-view, enabling the measurement of the total power radiated from the torus in the extreme ultraviolet. A typical value for the total power radiated in the wavelength range of 580Å-1181Å is 1.7x10^12 W, with observed variations of up to 25%. Several brightening events were observed. These events lasted for roughly 20 hours, during which time the emitted power increased rapidly by ~20% before slowly returning to the pre-event level. Observed variations in the relative intensities of torus spectral features provide strong evidence for compositional changes in the torus plasma with time. Spatial profiles of the EUV emission show no evidence for a sharply peaked "ribbon" feature. The ratio of the brightness of the dusk ansa to the brightness of the dawn ansa is observed to be highly variable, with an average value of 1.30. Weak longitudinal variations in the brightness of the torus ansae were observed at the 2% level.

description: We introduce Random Matrix Models for the Hermitian Wilson-Dirac operator of QCD-like theories. We show that they are equivalent to the $ε$-limit of the chiral Lagrangian for Wilson chiral perturbation theory. Results are obtained for two-color QCD with quarks in the fundamental representation of the color group as well as any-color QCD with quarks in the adjoint representation. For $N_c=2$ we also have obtained the lattice spacing dependence of the quenched average spectral density for a fixed value of the index of the Dirac operator. Comparisons with direct numerical simulations of the random matrix ensemble are shown.

We show that the Born amplitudes get sizeable O(α_s) corrections and, even at moderate energies, the gluonic contributions are by no means negligible. We stress that the timelike and spacelike cases are complementary and that their difference deserves much special attention.

description: Water hammers commonly are observed at wellheads and often are considered a potential hazard that should be avoided. Nevertheless, there are a few situations in which water hammers provide very valuable information about a well. A comprehensive data-acquisition and analysis system has been developed by Brouard Consulting and Ecole Polytechnique. One potential application of that system is determining the depth of an interface between two fluids. This application has been tested successfully at the Manosque field. It is demonstrated here how this low-cost and non-intrusive system can be accurate and allows practical, real-time measurements.

description: We performed an integrated genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic characterization of 373 endometrial carcinomas using array- and sequencing-based technologies. Uterine serous tumours and ∼25% of high-grade endometrioid tumours had extensive copy number alterations, few DNA methylation changes, low oestrogen receptor/progesterone receptor levels, and frequent TP53 mutations. Most endometrioid tumours had few copy number alterations or TP53mutations, but frequent mutations in PTEN, CTNNB1, PIK3CA, ARID1Aand KRAS and novel mutations in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex gene ARID5B. A subset of endometrioid tumours that we identified had a markedly increased transversion mutation frequency and newly identified hotspot mutations in POLE. Our results classified endometrial cancers into four categories: POLE ultramutated, microsatellite instability hypermutated, copy-number low, and copy-number high. Uterine serous carcinomas share genomic features with ovarian serous and basal-like breast carcinomas. We demonstrated that the genomic features of endometrial carcinomas permit a reclassification that may affect post-surgical adjuvant treatment for women with aggressive tumours.

description: Optical microscopy and multi-particle tracking are used to investigate the cross-correlated diffusion of quasi two-dimensional (2D) colloidal particles near an oil-water interface. It is shown that the effect of the interface on correlated diffusion is asymmetric. Along the line joining the centers of particles, the amplitude of correlated diffusion coefficient ${D}_{\|}(r)$ is enhanced by the interface, while the decay rate of ${D}_{\|}(r)$ is hardly affected. At the direction perpendicular to the line, the decay rate of ${D}_{\bot}(r)$ is enhanced at short inter-particle separation $r$. This enhancing effect fades at the long $r$. In addition, both $D_{\|}(r)$ and $D_{\bot}(r)$ are independent of the colloidal area fraction $n$ at long $r$, which indicates that the hydrodynamic interactions (HIs) among the particles are dominated by that through the surrounding fluid at this region. However, at short $r$, $D_{\bot}(r)$ is dependent on $n$, which suggests the HIs are more contributed from the 2D particle monolayer self.

description: Superspace techniques are used to formulate a supersymmetric model on an AdS3 surface embedded in four dimensions. In this model, the supersymmetry transformation is the "square root" of the transformation generated by the isometry generators of AdS3. Since momentum is not an isometry generator, supersymmetry does not result in equal masses for a Bosonic field and its Fermionic partner. We express this model in terms of coordinates that characterize the AdS3 space. In one coordinate system, it is possible to define a subspace with a Minkowski metric. It becomes possible to infer a model in AdS4 space in which there is a symmetry transformation that relates Bosonic and Fermionic fields. This model is not a consequence of being formulated in superspace and the Fermionic transformation is not the "square root" of an isometry of AdS4.

description: We study via the renormalization group equations at one-loop order the perturbativity and vacuum stability of a two-singlet model of cold dark matter (DM) that consists in extending the Standard Model with two real gauge-singlet scalar fields. We then investigate the regions in the parameter space in which the model is viable. For this, we require the model to reproduce the observed DM relic density abundance, to comply with the measured XENON 100 direct-detection upper bounds, and to be consistent with the RGE perturbativity and vacuum-stability criteria up to $40\mathrm{TeV}$. For small mixing angle $θ$ between the physical Higgs $h$ and auxiliary field, and DM-$h$ mutual coupling constant $λ_{0}^{(4)}$, we find that the auxiliary-field mass is confined to the interval $116\mathrm{GeV}-138\mathrm{GeV}$ while the DM mass is mainly confined to the region above $57\mathrm{GeV}$. Increasing $θ$ enriches the existing viability regions without relocating them, while increasing $λ_{0}^{(4)}$ shrinks them with a tiny relocation. We show that the model is consistent with the recent Higgs boson-like discovery by the ATLAS and CMS experiments, while very light dark matter (masses below $5\mathrm{GeV}$) is ruled out by the same experiments.

description: It is well-known that the LIE(Locally Induction Equation) admit soliton-type solutions and same soliton solutions arise from different and apparently irrelevant physical models. By comparing the solitons of LIE and Killing magnetic geodesics, we observe that these solitons are essentially decided by two families of isometries of the domain and the target space respectively. With this insight, we propose the new concept of geometric solitons of Hamiltonian flows on manifolds, such as geometric Schrödinger flows and KdV flows for maps. Moreover, we give several examples of geometric solitons of the Schrödinger flow and geometric KdV flow, including magnetic curves as geometric Schrödinger solitons and explicit geometric KdV solitons on surfaces of revolution.

description: We investigate in this paper the antideuteron flux produced in high energy collisions of cosmic rays with the interstellar matter. We employ the Monte Carlo generator DPMJET-III together with the coalescence model to simulate, in an event-by-event basis, the antideuteron production in cosmic ray collisions in our Galaxy. Then, we use a diffusion model to calculate the expected flux. We find a secondary antideuteron flux at the Earth which is approximately a factor of two smaller than in previous calculations.

description: Abstract Background Monocytes and macrophages express an extensive repertoire of G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) that regulate inflammation and immunity. In this study we performed a systematic micro-array analysis of GPCR expression in primary mouse macrophages to identify family members that are either enriched in macrophages compared to a panel of other cell types, or are regulated by an inflammatory stimulus, the bacterial product lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Results Several members of the P2RY family had striking expression patterns in macrophages; P2ry6 mRNA was essentially expressed in a macrophage-specific fashion, whilst P2ry1 and P2ry5 mRNA levels were strongly down-regulated by LPS. Expression of several other GPCRs was either restricted to macrophages (e.g. Gpr84) or to both macrophages and neural tissues (e.g. P2ry12, Gpr85). The GPCR repertoire expressed by bone marrow-derived macrophages and thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages had some commonality, but there were also several GPCRs preferentially expressed by either cell population. Conclusion The constitutive or regulated expression in macrophages of several GPCRs identified in this study has not previously been described. Future studies on such GPCRs and their agonists are likely to provide important insights into macrophage biology, as well as novel inflammatory pathways that could be future targets for drug discovery.
Temperature-driven refacetting phase transition in Pb chains on Si(557)

description: By using quantitative low energy electron diffraction, we have studied the temperature-driven phase transition of Pb chains grown on Si(557) substrates at a surface concentration of 1.3 ML. This concentration, which is still below one physical monolayer, exhibits a unique switching of electrical conductance from one dimensional to two dimensional above 78 K, which is coupled to this phase transition, and was investigated for this reason. Annealing to 640 K causes a concentration-driven refacetting of the whole surface into large (223) facets at low temperatures, while along the chains a so-called (1,5) linear phase is formed, causing a tenfold periodicity. At Tc=78 K, we analyze a temperature-driven order-order transition along the [¯1¯12] direction in detail, which again turns out to be a refacetting transition. The two-dimensional character of this transition was seen by corresponding structural changes along the [1¯10] direction as well. Refacetting causes a change in periodicity and destroys the conditions of Fermi nesting necessary for one-dimensional conductance. © 2008 The American Physical Society.

description: Abstract Background Individuals who are aware of the risk of infection and perceive themselves to be at risk of infection are more likely to take action to prevent HIV infection. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of HIV/AIDS among Iraqi women. Methods A secondary analysis of the 2000 Multiple Cluster Indicator Survey (MICS) for Iraq was carried out to assess the extent of HIV/AIDS-related knowledge among Iraqi women. Results The majority of the 22,997 respondents were age 15–24 years (44.3%), currently married (51.4%), and resided in urban areas (71.7%). About 1 in 4 (26.0%) of the study participants had no formal education. Only 49.9% had heard of HIV/AIDS. Overall, 60.5% did not know that HIV can be transmitted through blood transfusion. Meanwhile, 98.5% of the respondents did not know that HIV can be transmitted from mother to child through breast milk. Only 0.7% of the respondents reported that HIV cannot be transmitted through mosquito bites. The proportion of the respondents who had adequate knowledge on HIV/AIDS was 9.8%. Adequate knowledge of HIV/AIDS was negatively associated with being married, poor, having low education, and residing in rural areas. Conclusion Findings from this study indicate that adequate knowledge of HIV/AIDS among Iraqi is very limited and associated with marital status, education, wealth, and place of residence. This information may be of use in the design, targeting, monitoring and evaluation of programs aimed at improving HIV and AIDS related knowledge in Iraq.

description: Hen 3-1341 is a symbiotic binary system consisting of a white dwarf and a red giant star that is one of about ten symbiotics that show hints of jets. The bipolar jets have been detected through displaced components of emission lines during its outburst from 1998 to 2004. These components disappeared when Hen 3-1341 reached quiescence. On February 23, 2012, Hen 3-1341 started a new outburst with the emergence of new bipolar jets on March 3, 2012. We observed Hen 3-1341 during quiescence with XMM-Newton in March 2010 with an effective exposure time of 46.8 ks and with Swift on March 8-11, 2012 as ToO observations with an effective exposure time of 10 ks in order to probe the interaction of the jet with the ambient medium and also the accretion onto the white dwarf. We fitted the XMM-Newton X-ray spectra with XSPEC and examined the X-ray and UV light curves. We report the detection of X-ray emission during quiescence from Hen 3-1341 with XMM-Newton. The spectrum can be fitted with an absorbed one-temperature plasma or an absorbed blackbody. We did not detect Hen 3-1341 during our short Swift exposure. Neither periodic or aperiodic X-ray nor UV variability were found. Our XMM-Newton data suggest that interaction of the residual jet with the interstellar medium might survive for a long time after outbursts and might be responsible for the observed X-ray emission during quiescence. Additional data are strongly needed to confirm these suggestions.
