title: Population Equivalent, background data and results

description: INTRODUCTION This excel files contains information and guidelines for the accounting of Population Equivalent, including collected and processed data. Information and data are calculated and accounted for the city of Leuven (Belgium), reference year 2016. Extensive information and full details about the present study are provided in "Towards a sustainable transition of cities: the Population Equivalent as a novel approach to implement urban Life Cycle Assessment studies", submitted to Science of the Total Environment (February 2020). GOAL OF THE STUDY Cities are very complex and unique systems, very diverse in terms of functions, and contexts, that provide a large range of services. not only for its inhabitants but also for additional groups of people. For these reasons, comparisons between cities can be difficult to perform and sometimes meaningless. The goal of the present study is to provide an enhanced functional unit (FU) to support LCA and urban sustainability studies. The enhanched FU takes into account not only the urban population as sum of its residents, but accounts also for the relative use of the existing services provided by the city to a larger audiance of city-users. These city-users are acknowledged based on previous researches about the functional categorization of cities, which each function comes with specific groups of city-users. This FU is based on the concept of Population Equivalent, popular in other domains of environmental engineering. Since the concept is able to summarize and normalize different entities to one single metric, it could be useful for: i) supporting the multi-functionality inherent to cities; ii) overcoming current limitations provided by other FUs; iii) overcoming comparability issues between cities.

title: Supplementary Material for: A Novel Mask with Selective Ports for Inflow and Outflow Reduces CO<sub>2</sub> Rebreathing during Non-Invasive Ventilation: A Physiological Study in Healthy Volunteers

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> CO<sub>2</sub> rebreathing is one of the risks associated with noninvasive ventilation (NIV), possibly contributing to failure. In a bench study, we showed that a novel mask design, with separate limbs for inflow and outflow gases, significantly reduced CO<sub>2</sub> rebreathing in different ventilation settings. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The study aimed to test whether a new mask design could 1) reduce CO<sub>2</sub> rebreathing in healthy volunteers during NIV (phase 1) and 2) reduce minute ventilation (phase 2). <b><i>Materials and Methods:</i></b> Healthy volunteers were randomly assigned to NIV using two masks in a crossover design: a traditional single-limb mask for inflow and outflow gases and a mask with two separated limbs. In phase 1, six ventilation settings were tested for each mask: CPAP (PEEP 5 cmH<sub>2</sub>O) and pressure support ventilation (PSV, PS Level 5 cmH<sub>2</sub>O) using a mechanical ventilator with a bias flow of 8 or 20 L/min; free-flow CPAP (PEEP 5 cmH<sub>2</sub>O) with 60 or 90 L/min of gas flow. A nasal cannula was inserted in one nostril of the volunteers and connected to a CO<sub>2</sub> gas analyzer to measure CO<sub>2</sub> during the respiratory cycle. In phase 2, volunteers underwent a prolonged time of ventilation in CPAP 90 L/min and PSV with 20 L/min of bias flow. During free-flow CPAP, electrical impedance tomography was used to record the change in impedance during tidal breathing and then estimate tidal volume. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Ten healthy adults were enrolled in phase 1, and 8 volunteers in phase 2. CO<sub>2</sub> during inspiration was significantly lower in each setting with the two-limb versus the one-limb mask (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001). The maximum CO<sub>2</sub> reduction was observed in the continuous-flow CPAP settings. EtCO<sub>2</sub> was lower with the two-limb mask compared to the one-limb mask (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001). However, no difference in minute ventilation was observed between the two masks. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The new mask design with two ports for inhaled and exhaled gases reduced the amount of CO<sub>2</sub> rebreathing in all tested ventilation settings. The CO<sub>2</sub> rebreathing reduction did not decrease minute ventilation in healthy volunteers.

title: Design and Implementation of Human Resource Information Systems Based on MVC

description: In this work we have presented the state of the art of requirements engineering in methodologies used for the development of HRIS system web-based. To achieve this purpose, we started describing the structure of the requirements engineering process and the most common techniques used in such a process in the classic software development for HRIS Traditionally non-web applications in an organization. During this study, various stages of the system development life cycle were executed. Understanding the problem statement, literature survey, analysis, interpretation, design and implementation gave the thorough idea of a study life-cycle. The objective behind designing of a new HRIS was to eliminate manual work to some extent and also help employees to access their own HRIS, and also sharing information with other departments in the organization. The process developed by this HRIS web-based system includes. First, I have main activities: capture requirements, definition and Analysis of requirements. The techniques most frequently used to perform these activities are among others, use cases, scenarios. I have used a combination of three requirements elicitation methodobservation, interviews and brainstorming. In the interview process, I have interviewed three potential customers. And finally, after brainstorming, I have used use case technique to specify the user requirements. Based on the user requirements, I have designed class attributes and activity diagram. In a second step I have designed the class diagram to get the clear picture of the future HRIS system. I have designed an outline of the methodologies for the web describing how these approaches cover the aspects related to requirements engineering, I use struts MVC framework and J2EE standard platform technology, a new flexible, high-effect, expandable enterprise human resources management system framework is designed and then implemented. This system not only can successfully resolve a large number of practical problems the enterprise human resources management faced to improve human resources management efficiency, but also the information system is simple and easy to implement, has strong features such as easy to expand, easy to maintain, flexible and secure. Finally, I have also designed GUI prototypes. This study can be further extended in implementation of other modules of HRIS like recruitment and selection, training and development, compensation, benefits and payroll. Can be used another framework for developing this application for example (ASP.NET MVC &Spring MVC) easily. Reason the persistence layer and business logic layer it will not be affected, thus the system flexibility and maintainability.

title: A Global Geographic Information System Data Base of Storm Occurrences and Other Climatic Phenomena Affecting Coastal Zones (1991) (NDP-035)

description: This NDP is unique in that it represents CDIAC's first offering of ARC/INFOTM export data files and equivalent flat ASCII data files that may be used by raster or vector geographic information systems (GISs). The data set contains 61 variables, including information on tropical storms, hurricanes, super typhoons, extratropical cyclogeneses, polar lows, cyclonicity, influence of winds in monsoon regions, and sea-ice concentrations. Increased availability of source data has made it possible to extend the area of these data variables to regional or global coverages. All data variables except five are referenced to 1° × 1° or 5° × 5° grid cells of latitude and longitude. These data help meet the demand for new and improved climatologies of storm events and may be used in climate research studies, including the verification of general circulation models and the calculation of storm-recurrence intervals.

title: Supplementary Material for: Delving into the Genetic Causes of Language Impairment in a Case of Partial Deletion of <b><i>NRXN1</i></b>

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Copy-number variations (CNVs) impacting on small DNA stretches and associated with language deficits provide a unique window to the role played by specific genes in language function<i>.</i> <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We report in detail on the cognitive, language, and genetic features of a girl bearing a small deletion (0.186 Mb) in the 2p16.3 region, arr[hg19] 2p16.3(50761778_50947729)×1, affecting exons 3–7 of <i>NRXN1</i>, a neurexin-coding gene previously related to schizophrenia, autism (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), mood disorder, and intellectual disability (ID). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The proband exhibits many of the features commonly found in subjects with deletions of <i>NRXN1</i>, like ASD-like traits (including ritualized behaviors, disordered sensory aspects, social disturbances, and impaired theory of mind), ADHD symptoms, moderate ID, and impaired speech and language. Regarding this latter aspect, we observed altered speech production, underdeveloped phonological awareness, minimal syntax, serious shortage of active vocabulary, impaired receptive language, and inappropriate pragmatic behavior (including lack of metapragmatic awareness and communicative use of gaze). Microarray analyses point to the dysregulation of several genes important for language function in the girl compared to her healthy parents. <b><i>Discussion:</i></b> Although some basic cognitive deficit – such as the impairment of executive function – might contribute to the language problems exhibited by the proband, molecular evidence suggests that they might result, to a great extent, from the abnormal expression of genes directly related to language.

title: Supplementary Material for: Clinical Impact of KIR2DS3 and KIR2DL3 Genes in Neuroblastoma Patients

description: <b><i>Objective:</i></b> Neuroblastoma is a common fatal tumor of childhood. Natural killer (NK) cells can exert direct cytotoxicity on tumor cells. The killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) family of NK cell receptors is involved in activation/inhibition of NK cells. In the KIR gene cluster, six of them (3DS1, 2DS1–5) encode receptors triggering activation, while seven of them (3DL1–3, 2DL1–3, 2DL5) encode receptors triggering inhibition. We aimed to assess the distribution of genetic polymorphisms of KIRs on the clinical course of neuroblastoma and provide guidance on potential therapeutic options. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Our study group included 50 neuroblastoma patients and 100 healthy children as controls. Twenty-eight patients were boys, and twenty-two were girls; median age was 36 months. Fourteen patients had stage 1, 2, 3, or 4S disease, and 36 patients had stage 4 disease. Isolated DNA from the peripheral blood was amplified for sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe analysis of 16 KIR genes. The Fisher’s exact test was used to evaluate the variation of KIR gene distribution. <b><i>Results:</i></b> All patients had a lower frequency of KIR2DS3 compared to the control group (<i>p</i> = 0.005). Evaluation of individual KIR genes/genotypes in patients with early stages (stage 1, 2, 3, and 4S) versus stage 4 disease revealed that the frequency of KIR2DS3 was increased in early stages (<i>p</i> = 0.023). Inhibitory KIR2DL3 was increased in the patient group compared to controls (<i>p</i> = 0.038). Furthermore, the frequency of KIR2DL3 was higher in stage 4 neuroblastoma patients compared to the patients with early stages (<i>p</i> = 0.023). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Our data suggest a role for KIR2DS3 and KIR2DL3 in development of neuroblastoma. Thus, modulation of KIR2SD3 and/or KIR2DL3 expression or function might present a novel therapeutic strategy for neuroblastoma.

title: Increased interaction between endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria following sleep deprivation - Drosophila data

description: Fly data repository for Aboufares et al. BMC Biology 2023. This dataset contains raw and processed Drosophila sleep and wake activity of Linker flies and relative wild type flies. Fly stocks and crosses were maintained and tested on standard Drosophila medium at 25°C, 70% relative humidity with a 12h:12h LD cycle. For the experimental line UAS-linker flies were crossed to the pan-neuronal driver line elav-GAL4 (BL8760; Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center, IN, USA) and controls were generated by crossing Gal4 promoter and UAS responder lines to Canton-S w- (Dr Scott Waddell, University of Oxford, UK). Individual male progeny flies were collected between two to four days post eclosion and loaded in the Drosophila Activity Monitor system (DAM2, Trikinetics Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) placed inside a light- and temperature-controlled incubator. Locomotor data was collected in 1 min bins and sleep was defined as five or more minutes of inactivity. Sleep parameters were quantified in MATLAB using the SCAMP script. Baseline activity and sleep measurements were averaged over the four days of LD, and further split into the day (i.e. when lights were on) and night (i.e. lights off) components. Sleep deprivation was performed by placing the DAM monitors for both control and experimental flies on a shaker controlled by a timer. Flies were sleep deprived for the whole 12 h night phase of day five by activating the shaker for 5s in every 1 min and followed by a day of recovery. Flies that had died before the end of the experiment were removed from the analysis.

title: Supplementary Material for: Association between Early Feeding Patterns and Neonatal Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants: A Retrospective Cohort Study

description: <b><i>Objective:</i></b> Mother’s own milk (MOM) is the optimal feed for premature infants but may not always be sufficiently available. Alternative feeding includes donor human milk (DONOR), with or without fortification and preterm formula. This study evaluated the association between early feeding with exclusively and predominantly MOM (MAINLY-MOM) versus MOM supplemented with fortified DONOR (MOM + DONOR) or preterm formula (MOM + FORMULA) and in-hospital growth and neonatal morbidities. <b><i>Method:</i></b> This was a multicentre (<i>n</i> = 13 units) cohort study of infants born at &lt;32 weeks’ gestation. Data captured at the point of care were extracted from the UK National Neonatal Research Database. The study groups were defined based on feeding patterns within the first 2 weeks of life using predefined cut-offs. The primary outcome was the in-hospital growth rate. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Data from 1,272 infants were analysed. Infants fell into two groups: extremely preterm (EPT) infants and very preterm (VPT) infants, born after &lt;28 weeks and 28 to &lt;32 weeks of gestation, respectively. Only 11 of 365 EPT infants received formula supplements, precluding a useful comparison of MOM + DONOR and MOM + FORMULA. There was no difference in median (25th–75th centile) growth velocity over the first 30 days of life between the MAINLY-MOM (<i>n</i> = 248) and MOM + DONOR (<i>n</i> = 106) groups: 10 (8–13) versus 10 (7–13) g/kg/day. Similarly, for VPT infants, there was no difference in growth velocities between MAINLY-MOM (<i>n</i> = 407), MOM + DONOR (<i>N</i> = 196), and MOM + FORMULA (<i>N</i> = 304): 11 (8–14) versus 11 (8–14) versus 11 (8–14) g/kg/day. Head growth did not differ (<i>p</i> value = 0.670). Cox regression analysis showed no difference in time to discharge between feeding types or any difference in major neonatal morbidities. In both EPT and VPT infants, growth velocity from the time of regaining birth weight to discharge was significantly lower in the MAINLY-MOM group compared to the MOM-DONOR group (EPT: 12.5 [11–14.2] vs. 14 [12.3–15.9] <i>p</i> = 0.45, VPT 13.5 [11–15.7] vs. 14.5 [12.6–16.8] <i>p</i> = 0.015). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Early feeding with fortified DONOR, in comparison to formula, to supplement MOM was not associated with any differences in short-term growth, length of stay, and neonatal morbidities. However, early feeding with mainly maternal milk, compared to maternal milk supplemented with DONOR, was associated with significantly lower overall weight gain.
