title: Shade Mapping for UBC Vancouver Neighbourhood Climate Adaptation and Community Wellbeing

description: Shade is important to urban environments as they provide comfort, reduce heat-related stress, and enhance overall wellbeing. This report presents a comprehensive study on shade mapping for Neighbourhood climate adaptation and community wellbeing within the University of British Columbia Vancouver (UBCV) campus. The primary objectives are to develop methodologies for shade mapping, identify areas with insufficient shade coverage, and provide actionable recommendations for improving shade distribution. Using high-resolution LiDAR data and sun position data, a Digital Surface Model (DSM) was created to represent campus elevation, and hillshade analysis was employed to simulate shade coverage at 15-minute intervals. Findings reveal that pedestrian areas have the highest mean shade coverage (0.69507), while concrete areas such as buildings and structures have the lowest (0.434512). Significant variations exist across Neighbourhoods, with East Campus and Hampton Place showing high, consistent shade, while Stadium and UBlvd require improvement. Bus stations also exhibit variability in shade, with UBC Exchange Bay 8 having the lowest coverage (0.160035). Recommendations include enhancing shade consistency in pedestrian areas, providing shelters in open concrete spaces, and increasing shade in Neighbourhoods like Wesbrook Place and UBlvd. Limitations of the study include the hillshade method's inability to account for shaded areas underneath trees or structures and the need for ground-truth validation. Future work should explore 3D multipatch analysis, incorporate detailed tree inventory data, and integrate shade analysis into broader urban planning efforts. This methodology-driven research aims to inspire further enhancements to the campus environment, ensuring optimized shade coverage and contributing to a more comfortable and sustainable urban landscape.

title: Données de réplication pour : Postoperative complication rate and owner satisfaction comparison of enucleation versus evisceration

description: This study aims to compare complication rates and owner satisfaction following enucleation versus EIOP in order to increase literature knowledge on both procedures. A review was conducted of medical records of 138 dogs, presented to the ophthalmology service of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Montreal, Quebec, Canada that underwent enucleation from 2015 to 2022 and EIOP from 2008 to 2022. A survey was conducted with the owners by email or by telephone. This study found a significant effect of procedure choice on the complication rate with EIOP being much more prone to complications than enucleation (54.1 vs 15.3%). A glaucoma (primary or secondary) diagnosis before an evisceration procedure significantly increased the complication rate (p &lt; 0.05). No other variable tested had a significant effect (age, size, sex, comorbidities, brachycephalic syndrome). The duration of administration of topical medication after an EIOP was much higher in this study compared to intervals mentioned in the literature (0.49 years). The owner survey revealed a similar level of satisfaction regarding the post-operative outcome of both procedures. Both procedures are viable options, but it is important to communicate the complication risk clearly with the owner and the personal implication necessary for postoperative care after an EIOP. The results of this study put in perspective the fact that the EIOP can be considered equally safe as enucleation. The survey results of this study show enucleation can have a very satisfactory cosmetic result with much less postoperative burden, while the choice of procedure remains the owner’s preference.

title: Development and Internal Validation of a Predictive Model Including Pulse Oximetry for Hospitalization of Under-Five Children in Bangladesh

description: &lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Background:&lt;/strong&gt; The reduction in the deaths of millions of children who die from infectious diseases requires early initiation of treatment and improved access to care available in health facilities. A major challenge is the lack of objective evidence to guide front line health workers in the community to recognize critical illness in children earlier in their course. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; We undertook a prospective observational study of children less than 5 years of age presenting at the outpatient or emergency department of a rural tertiary care hospital between October 2012 and April 2013. Study physicians collected clinical signs and symptoms from the facility records, and with a mobile application performed recordings of oxygen saturation, heart rate and respiratory rate. Facility physicians decided the need for hospital admission without knowledge of the oxygen saturation. Multiple logistic predictive models were tested. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Findings:&lt;/strong&gt; Twenty-five percent of the 3374 assessed children, with a median (interquartile range) age of 1.02 (0.42–2.24), were admitted to hospital. We were unable to contact 20% of subjects after their visit. A logistic regression model using continuous oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, temperature and age combined with dichotomous signs of chest indrawing, lethargy, irritability and symptoms of cough, diarrhea and fast or difficult breathing predicted admission to hospital with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.89 (95% confidence interval -CI: 0.87 to 0.90). At a risk threshold of 25% for admission, the sensitivity was 77% (95% CI: 74% to 80%), specificity was 87% (95% CI: 86% to 88%), positive predictive value was 70% (95% CI: 67% to 73%) and negative predictive value was 91% (95% CI: 90% to 92%). &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; A model using oxygen saturation, respiratory rate and temperature in combination with readily obtained clinical signs and symptoms predicted the need for hospitalization of critically ill children. External validation of this model in a community setting will be required before adoption into clinical practice. &lt;br&gt;

title: Derivation and internal validation of a data-driven prediction model to guide frontline health workers in triaging children under-five in Nairobi, Kenya

description: &lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Background:&lt;/strong&gt; Many hospitalized children in developing countries die from infectious diseases. Early recognition of those who are critically ill coupled with timely treatment can prevent many deaths. A data-driven, electronic triage system to assist frontline health workers in categorizing illness severity is lacking. This study aimed to develop a data-driven parsimonious triage algorithm for children under five years of age. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; This was a prospective observational study of children under-five years of age presenting to the outpatient department of Mbagathi Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya between January and June 2018. A study nurse examined participants and recorded history and clinical signs and symptoms using a mobile device with an attached low-cost pulse oximeter sensor. The need for hospital admission was determined independently by the facility clinician and used as the primary outcome in a logistic predictive model. We focused on the selection of variables that could be quickly and easily assessed by low skilled health workers. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The admission rate (for more than 24 hours) was 12% (N=138/1,132). We identified an eight-predictor logistic regression model including continuous variables of weight, mid-upper arm circumference, temperature, pulse rate, and transformed oxygen saturation, combined with dichotomous signs of difficulty breathing, lethargy, and inability to drink or breastfeed. This model predicts overnight hospital admission with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.88 (95% CI 0.82 to 0.94). Low- and high-risk thresholds of 5% and 25%, respectively were selected to categorize participants into three triage groups for implementation. &lt;br&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; A logistic regression model comprised of eight easily understood variables may be useful for triage of children under the age of five based on the probability of need for admission. This model could be used by frontline workers with limited skills in assessing children. External validation is needed before adoption in clinical practice. &lt;br&gt;

title: Replication Data for: Measurements of infrared absorption cross-sections for 1H-perfluorohexane and perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene from 300 to 340 K

description: This dataset includes the infrared absorption cross-section measurements and DFT calculations used in 'Measurements of infrared absorption cross-sections for 1H-perfluorohexane and perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene from 300 to 340 K' by Ishtiak et al. (2025). The dataset includes: (1) the absorption cross-sections for 1H-perfluorohexane (HFC-52-13P), labeled as C6HF13; (2) the absorption cross-sections for perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene, labeled as C6F12; and (3) DFT parameters as below. Five absorption cross-sections are provided for each compound, labeled by the sample temperature from 300 to 340 K. All measurements were made using an ABB Bomem DA8 Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectrometer. The original cross-section files have an uncertainty at 3 standard deviations, while the updated files (tagged V2) have an uncertainty at 2 standard deviations (consistent with the description in the published paper). The dataset has been updated to include density functional theory geometries, and unscaled and scaled frequencies for all conformers of 1H-perfluorohexane and perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene. The ORCA 5.0.3 software package was used for these calculations (Neese et al. 2020) doi:10.1063/5.0004608.

title: Morphology, behavior, and phylogenomics of Oxytoxum lohmannii

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dinoflagellates are an abundant and diverse group of protists representing a wealth of unique biology and ecology. While many dinoflagellates are photosynthetic or mixotrophic, many taxa are heterotrophs, often with complex feeding strategies. Compared to their photosynthetic counterparts, heterotrophic dinoflagellates remain understudied, as they are difficult to culture. One exception, a long-cultured isolate originally classified as &lt;em&gt;Amphidinium &lt;/em&gt;but recently reclassified as &lt;em&gt;Oxytoxum, &lt;/em&gt;has been the subject of a number of feeding, growth, and chemosensory studies. This lineage was recently determined to be closely related to &lt;em&gt;Prorocentrum &lt;/em&gt;using phylogenetics of ribosomal RNA gene sequences, but the exact nature of this relationship remains unresolved. Using transcriptomes sequenced from culture and three single cells from the environment, we produce a robust phylogeny of 242 genes, revealing &lt;em&gt;Oxytoxum &lt;/em&gt;is likely sister to the &lt;em&gt;Prorocentrum &lt;/em&gt;clade, rather than nested within it. Molecular investigations uncover evidence of a reduced, non-photosynthetic plastid and proteorhodopsin, a photoactive proton pump acquired horizontally from bacteria. We describe the&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;ultrastructure of &lt;em&gt;O. lohmannii&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;including densely packed trichocysts, and a new type of mucocyst. We observe that &lt;em&gt;O. lohmannii&lt;/em&gt; feeds preferentially on cryptophytes using myzocytosis, but can also feed on various phytoflagellates using conventional phagocytosis. &lt;em&gt;O. lohmannii&lt;/em&gt; is amenable to culture, providing an opportunity to better study heterotrophic dinoflagellate biology and feeding ecology.&lt;/p&gt;
