Bank-Line Behaviour of the Main Rivers Located Within Sundarbans Using Digital Shoreline Analysis System

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Sundarbans, the largest mangrove forest located over the GBM basin, has impacted lives of millions over the years. Standing against various natural disasters, rivers of Sundarbans have undergone major issues such as erosion-accretion of both the banks. The paper deals with a combination of remote sensing and Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS), studying temporal behaviour of bank-lines along the main rivers of Sundarbans for the last three decades. The course of main rivers spanning from southwest Baleswar to west Bengal Bidyadhari within coverage of 10,000 sq. km. has been analyzed in this study. DSAS, the extension tool of ArcGIS, was used for monitoring the rate-of-change from multiple historic bank-line positions extracted from satellite images. Comparison of historic bank-lines between different rivers of Sundarbans was done based on Net Bank-line Movement (NBM) with an interval of five years. Finally, the results were presented graphically to get a better understanding of the bank-line behaviour. The study revealed that the western region of mangrove prevails eroding behaviour than the eastern region. Increased rates of riverward movement due to accretion was found from 2008-2013. These results are important for future monitoring and proper management within the coastal communities surrounding the mangrove forest.

본고는 그동안 대구근대미술사에서 주변부로 취급되어 왔던 재대구 일본인 미술가의 존재에 주목하여 그들의 규모를 파악하고 대구·경북 미술가들과의 교류양상에 대해 살피는 것이다. 그동안 대구미술사는 당연하게도 한국인들을 중심으로 서술되어 왔는데, 당시 한반도에서 식민자 일본인이 가졌던 계급적 우위를 생각하면 당시 대구 화단의 중심에서 존재감을 발휘했던 것은 오히려 일본인 미술가들이었을지도 모른다. 한국인들과 ‘대구’라는 공간을 공유했던 일본인들의 존재와 그들 간에 상호 주고받았을 영향에 대한 부분이 그동안 미술사에서 주변부로 밀려나 충분히 다뤄지지 않았다. 본고는 이러한 연구 편향에 문제를 제기하고 대구근대화단의 실상에 대한 균형있고 종합적인 시각을 갖기 위한 시도이다.BR 본고의 구성은 우선 대구지역에 있었던 일본인 미술가의 규모가 어느 정도였는지 살핀 후, 그들이 대구·경북의 우리 미술가들과 어떠한 형태로 교류했는지에 대해 이야기한다.BR 재대구 일본인 미술가의 규모와 영향력을 가늠하기 위한 단서로 관전인 조선미술전람회(1922~44) 입선기록을 이용하였고, 제1회전~23회전의 대구·경북지역 입선작을 조선인과 일본인으로 나누어 명단을 작성했다. 동양화, 서양화, 서/사군자, 조소/공예의 각 분야별로 입선작 수를 표로 작성함으로써, 장르별 화단 규모 및 한일간 입선작 비율, 시간에 따른 추이를 분석했다. 또한 일본인 미술가들의 사회적 위상을 알아보기 위해 대구 내 학교에 교사로 있었던 인물들을 파악했다.BR 그리고 그들과 한국인 미술가들이 어떤 모양새로 교류 했는지 다음의 세 가지로 분류해서 살펴보기로 한다. 첫째는 사제관계, 두 번째는 화단 내 동료관계로서 그룹전시 및 개인전 찬조출품, 세 번째로는 합작품 제작이다.BR 본고를 통해 당시 대구화단에 예상보다 훨씬 많은 일본인 미술가들이 존재했고 그들이 교육과 전시, 작품 제작의 면에서 다양한 형태로 한국인 미술가들과 교류했음을 알 수 있을 것이다. 한일간 미술교류가 지배와 교육으로 인한 일방적인 영향관계나 혹은 그 반작용으로서의 경쟁과 내외라는 양극단의 관계성 말고, 그 중간지점들의 다양한 관계가 존재했음을 말하고자 한다. 화단과 미술시장, 생활공간을 공유했던 한국인과 일본인 미술가들을 따로 따로 연구하면 사실 불완전한 근대미술사가 된다. 당시 한일의 권력관계를 염두에 두면서 일본인들의 존재를 복원하고 한일 미술가 간의 다양한 관계성을 확인해간다면, 우리 미술가들의 화업을 보다 깊이 이해할 수 있을 것이며 나아가 근대화단을 종합적으로 파악할 수 있을 것이다.
A new scheduling algorithm for server farms load balancing

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper describes a new scheduling algorithm to distribute jobs in server\nfarm systems. The proposed algorithm overcomes the starvation caused by SRPT\n(Shortest Remaining Processing Time). This algorithm is used in process\nscheduling in operating system approach. The algorithm was developed to be used\nin dispatcher scheduling. This algorithm is non-preemptive discipline, similar\nto SRPT, in which the priority of each job depends on its estimated run time,\nand also the amount of time it has spent on waiting. Tasks in the servers are\nserved in order of priority to optimize the system response time. The\nexperiments show that the mean round around time is reduced in the server farm\nsystem.\n
Exaggerated Hypotensive Effect of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) induces hypotension in normotensive subjects, which is considered to be a major side effect for treatment of ischemic diseases. However, the hypotensive effect of VEGF has not been investigated in the setting of hypertension. This study determined effects of VEGF on hemodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and release of NO and prostaglandin I 2 (PGI 2 ) in vivo and on vasorelaxation of mesentery artery rings in vitro in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) compared with Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Intravenous infusion of VEGF for 2 hours produced a dose-related decrease in arterial pressure, which was enhanced in conscious SHR compared with WKY ( P <0.01), and an increase in heart rate in WKY but not in SHR. In response to similar doses of VEGF, compared with WKY, SHR had a higher plasma VEGF level and lower VEGF clearance ( P <0.01). Circulating NO and PGI 2 levels after VEGF administration were not increased in SHR versus WKY, and VEGF-induced vasorelaxation was blunted in SHR versus WKY in vitro, suggesting endothelial dysfunction in SHR. One-week VEGF infusion also caused greater hypotension ( P <0.05) in the absence of tachycardia in SHR compared with WKY controls. Thus, despite blunted vasorelaxation in vitro because of endothelial dysfunction, SHR exhibited exaggerated hypotension without tachycardia in response to VEGF, which was independent of NO and PGI 2 . The exaggerated hypotensive response to VEGF in SHR may be owing to impaired baroreflex function and reduced VEGF clearance. The data may also suggest that more caution should be taken when VEGF is administered in patients with hypertension.
Empirical sensitivity analysis for computational procedures

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Sensitivity analysis in computer science aims to improve stability in computer applications by considering uncertainty due to small perturbations in parameters. Mathematical and computational methods of sensitivity analysis are discussed. Advantages and disadvantages of both methods are addressed. A tool is developed to compute computational sensitivities. This tool was validated using three simple, well understood problems. The tool was then applied to a dynamic power grid system and an agent-based criminal computation. In the case of the power grid system, computational sensitivity analysis agrees with mathematical analysis in reporting stability and no excessive sensitivity. In the case of the criminal computation, the code is found to be unstable.
Targeted Gene Disruption of OsCERK1 Reveals Its Indispensable Role in Chitin Perception and Involvement in the Peptidoglycan Response and Immunity in Rice

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

OsCERK1 is a rice receptor-like kinase that mediates the signal of a fungal cell wall component, chitin, by coordinating with a lysin motif (LysM)-containing protein CEBiP. To further elucidate the function of OsCERK1 in the defense response, we disrupted OsCERK1 using an Agrobacterium-mediated gene targeting system based on homologous recombination. In OsCERK1-disrupted lines, the generation of hydrogen peroxide and the alteration of gene expression in response to a chitin oligomer were completely abolished. The OsCERK1-disrupted lines also showed lowered responsiveness to a bacterial cell wall component, peptidoglycan. Yeast two-hybrid analysis indicated that OsCERK1 interacts with the LysM-containing proteins LYP4 and LYP6, which are known to participate in the peptidoglycan response in rice. Observation of the infection behavior of rice blast fungus (Magnaporthe oryzae) revealed that disruption of OsCERK1 led to increased hyphal growth in leaf sheath cells. Green fluorescent protein-tagged OsCERK1 was localized around the primary infection hyphae. These results demonstrate that OsCERK1 is indispensable for chitin perception and participates in innate immunity in rice, and also mediates the peptidoglycan response. It is also suggested that OsCERK1 mediates the signaling pathways of both fungal and bacterial molecular patterns by interacting with different LysM-containing receptor-like proteins.
[Successful anesthetic management of three patients with cardiac dysfunction for non-cardiac surgery using olprinone hydrochloride].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Non-cardiac surgery presents significant risks to patients with cardiac dysfunction. The relative safety of different anesthetic techniques has been studied without mentioning any clear indication. The depression of myocardial contractility by anesthetic agents limits their use in patients with cardiac dysfunction, especially for induction of anesthesia. We used olprinone hydrochloride perioperatively in the anesthetic management of three patients. In all cases, anesthetic induction, intraoperative course and the postoperative period proceeded uneventfully. We consider that perioperative use of continuous olprinone hydrochloride infusion may be suitable for patients with cardiac dysfunction for non-cardiac surgery.
A Roadmap for Cognitive Engineering in Systems Engineering

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

We are concerned with three challenges in the design of military Command and Control (C2) systems, namely: the demand for “smaller” organizations, the demand for “better” coordination (human-system, human-human and system-system) and the demand for “faster” execution. Driven by these demands, we performed a survey of Cognitive Engineering techniques with an eye towards how they can improve Systems Engineering efforts. This paper outlines our three challenges (smaller, better, faster) and reviews three successful applications by other Cognitive/Systems engineers faced with similar challenges. The applications employ Computational Cognitive Modeling (to address a demand for smaller), Cognitive Work Analysis (to address a demand for better) and Goal-Directed Task Analysis (to address a demand for faster). These three successes provide a practical roadmap for using Cognitive Engineering methods to address Systems Engineering problems in C2 as well as other domains.

The series coefficients of these 1/n corrections are given for general values of m and d with 0
H04 Gene Expression Changes In Emotion And Metabolism Regulating Neuropeptide Systems In The Hypothalamus In Clinical Huntington Disease

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

<sec><st>Background</st> The homeostatic control of emotions and metabolism is disturbed in Huntington disease (HD). We have recently shown that specific neuropeptide populations in the hypothalamus are affected in HD patients. Transcriptional dysregulation is well known to occur in HD and it has been reported also in the hypothalamus of transgenic HD mice. Less is known about the extent of transcriptional dysregulation in the different hypothalamic nuclei in clinical HD. </sec> <sec><st>Aim</st> To investigate whether there are changes in gene expression levels of emotion and metabolism regulating factors in key hypothalamic circuitries in human post mortem tissues from individuals affected with HD. </sec> <sec><st>Methods/techniques</st> We have dissected frozen tissue from the paraventricular nucleus, the ventromedial nucleus, the lateral hypothalamus and the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus from 4 HD cases and 4 sex-and age-matched controls. The tissue was then processed for quantitative real time PCR. </sec> <sec><st>Results/outcome</st> The RNA integrity value was found to be above 7 for all samples. Our results show reduced mRNA expression levels of orexin (hypocretin) in the lateral hypothalamus as well as of dopamine receptor D2 expression in HD. We have also detected reduced expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the ventromedial hypothalamus in HD. </sec> <sec><st>Conclusions</st> These results show significant and specific alterations in gene expression in key hypothalamic nuclei involved in the regulation of emotions and metabolism. Transcriptional alterations in this region may be important for the development of the early non-motor symptoms and signs in HD, and may provide potential targets for therapeutic interventions. </sec>

In vitro cytotoxicity of amorphous carbon films

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Amorphous carbon (a‐C), carbon nitride (a‐CN) and titanium films were deposited on stainless steel substrates (SS) using a dc magnetron sputtering system attached to a high vacuum chamber. Films were deposited using a base pressure of 1.3×10 −4 Pa. For the carbon films a pure graphite target was eroded in an Argon plasma. For the case of the a‐CN films, the Ar flux was substituted by 100% N 2 gas. Titanium films were deposited in a different chamber, using a pure Ti target and an argon plasma. In vitro studies were carried out on the coated samples using human osteoblasts cells. Cytotoxicity of carbon films was assessed by cellular adhesion and proliferation, as determined by direct cellular counting using a spectroscopic technique and a well‐defined standard curve. Osteoblasts cells were also grown on uncoated steel and prepared Petri dishes for comparison. The percentage of osteoblasts adhesion measured at 24 hrs attained maximum values for the a‐C films. Similarly, cellular proliferation evaluated at three, five and seven days showed an outstanding increase of osteoblasts cells for the a‐C and Ti coatings in contrast to the uncoated steel. The cell functionality was evaluated by the MTT test after incubation periods of 3, 5 and 7 days. The absorbance values obtained for a‐C, a‐CN and Ti surfaces resulted significantly higher with respect to the positive control, indicating that the surface did not induce any toxic effect. Preliminary bio‐mineralization was evaluated by measuring the elemental composition of the mineral grown on the substrates after periods up to 14 days.
Hypothesis Testing as a Performance Evaluation Method for Multimodal Speaker Detection

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract. This work addresses the problem of detecting the speaker on audio-visual sequences by evaluating the synchrony between the audio and video sig-nals. Prior to the classiﬁcation, an information theoretic framework is applie d toextract optimized audio features using video information. The classiﬁcatio n stepis then deﬁned through a hypothesis testing framework so as to get conﬁd encelevels associated to the classiﬁer outputs. Such an approach allows to evalu atethe whole classiﬁcation process efﬁciency, and in particular, to evaluate th e ad-vantage of performing or not the feature extraction. As a result, it is shown thatintroducing a feature extraction step prior to the classiﬁcation increases the abilityof the classiﬁer to produce good relative instance scores. 1 Introduction This work addresses the problem of detecting the current speaker among two candidatesin an audio-video sequence, using a single camera and microphone. To this end, thedetection process has to consider both the audio and video clues as well as their inter-relationship to come up with a decision. In particular, previous works in the domain haveshown that the evaluation of the synchrony between the two modalities, interpreted asthe degree of mutual information between the signals, allowed to recover the commonsource of the two signals, that is, the speaker [1], [2].Other works, such as [3] and [4], have pointed out that fusing the information con-tained in each modality at the feature level can greatly help the classiﬁcation task: thericher and the more representative the features, the more efﬁcient the classiﬁer. Using aninformation theoretic framework based on [3] and [4], audio features speciﬁc to speechare extracted using the information content of both the audio and video signals as a pre-liminary step for the classiﬁcation. Such an approach and it s advantages have alreadybeen described in details in [5]. This feature extraction step is followed by a classiﬁ-cation step, where a label ”speaker” or ”non-speaker” is ass igned to pairs of audio andvideo features. The deﬁnition of this classiﬁcation step co nstitutes the contribution ofthis work.As stated previously, the classiﬁer decision should rely on an evaluation of the syn-chrony between pairs of audio and video features. In [4], the authors formulate the
Cognitive impairment in childhood onset epilepsy: up-to-date information about its causes

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Cognitive impairment associated with childhood-onset epilepsy is an important consequence in the developing brain owing to its negative effects on neurodevelopmental and social outcomes. While the cause of cognitive impairment in epilepsy appears to be multifactorial, epilepsy-related factors such as type of epilepsy and underlying etiology, age at onset, frequency of seizures, duration of epilepsy, and its treatment are considered important. In recent studies, antecedent cognitive impairment before the first recognized seizure and microstructural and functional alteration of the brain at onset of epilepsy suggest the presence of a common neurobiological mechanism between epilepsy and cognitive comorbidity. However, the overall impact of cognitive comorbidity in children with epilepsy and the independent contribution of each of these factors to cognitive impairment have not been clearly delineated. This review article focuses on the significant contributors to cognitive impairment in children with epilepsy.
Inappropriate Patient Sexual Behavior in Physiotherapy: A Systematic Review

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

A behavior which is increasing in prevalence is sexual harassment initiated by a client and displayed towards the healthcare professionals and students of these healthcare-related professions. This is termed inappropriate patient sexual behaviour (IPSB). The consequences of IPSB can be significant, including decreased academic and work performance, decreased attention/concentration, reductions in work satisfaction, and a loss of confidence. The primary aim is to evaluate the literature on sexual harassment in physiotherapy. The secondary aim is to report on the incidence, situational factors, and suggested strategies. The databases Pubmed, Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL Plus, Embase via OVID, ProQuest, and EBM Reviews were searched from inception up to 5 November 2021. Data on the incidence, situations, and strategies were extracted by at least two independent researchers. The quality of included articles was assessed. Nine studies of cohort and cross-sectional design were included. The incidence of IPSB was reported to be between 48–100% of the samples of physiotherapy students and/or therapists. The situational factors are reported, and the recommended educational strategies are discussed. Articles suggest that educating physiotherapists and/or students about sexual harassment would be beneficial. This will help predict potential issues and highlight strategies to empower therapists in the workplace and in training.
The Changing of the Guard

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

I AM IMMENSELY touched by the honor of the Ambulatory Pediatric Association's Armstrong Award for from the very beginning of my professional journey, this Association has been my academic home and the members of the Association my academic brothers and sisters. But I am comforted by my understanding that the Award has much more to do with the remarkable group of men and women who work with me at the Harlem Hospital, New York, NY, than it has to do with me personally. In fact, I found myself more than a trifle anxious, indeed desperate, for a topic for this discourse. As I anxiously ruminated upon the task, I finally seized upon our new young president's inaugural address. For as I remember it, Mr Clinton essentially said, Move over, get out of the way, a new generation is taking over. And as I listened to him, I suddenly realized that
