Virtual Visions the Physics an Metaphysics of Light an Space

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The computer has made a whole range of new visual artforms possible.This paper describes the thinking behindthe Virtual Visions project, which pursues a relativelyuntrodden sub-form within the digital art genres ? 3D stillimaging for digital print. It is also an argument for theinclusion of science as a theoretical framework fromwhich to pursue art, as an alternative or addition tocontemporary cultural and media theory. The paperintroduces some of the philosophical and art-theoreticalimplications of an artform that is predicated on computergraphics technologies, showing how an artist who is also agraphics programmer can bring together such differentintellectual disciplines. The paper ends with a request forthe computer graphics community to collaborate on thisproject in which there are many interfacing and aestheticinnovations.
The Experimental Transmission of the Spirochaete of European Relapsing Fever to Rats and Mice

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

On clinical grounds alone sufficient evidence is available to postulate that European relapsing fever and Central African tick-fever are caused by different, though closely allied, organisms. However, as the spirochaetes of both diseases are morphologically identical (Schellack, 1908; Darling, 1909), I should like to record some experiments and observations I made during the winter of 1910–11 in Moscow, so as to give an exact impression of the difficulty or ease with which Spirochaeta recurrentis can be transmitted to mice when compared with S. duttoni under the same conditions. Moreover, I wish to describe some appearances in S. recurrentis , the exact counterpart of which have not so far been published in the case of any blood spirochaete.

Effect of a medicated yavagu and lifestyle modification in prediabetes: A comparative clinical trial

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Prediabetes is a state of intermediate hyperglycaemia. It remains a high-risk state for developing diabetes mellitus which resembles the concept of Prameha in Ayurveda. Prediabetes may be correlated with Prameha purvarupa, and they arrive as an opportunity to act early. In Ayurveda, the goal of Prediabetic management is to normalise the blood sugar level by giving attention to three aspects - Aushadha (Medicine), Ahara (Diet) and Vyayama (Exercise). This study is to assess the effect of a Medicated yavagu and Lifestyle modification in Prediabetes. This Medicated yavagu is mentioned in the Kerala’s traditional therapeutic treatise Yogamrutam, Prameha chikitsa. It is prepared with Raktasali (Oryza sativa) and Mudga (Vigna radiata) in kashaya of 8 herbal ingredients-Paaranthi root (Ixora coccinea), Khadira sara (Acacia catechu), Bhadra root (Aerva lanata), Saalaparni root (Pseudarthria viscida), Dusparsa root (Tragia involucrata), Vasukah root (Spermacoce hispida), Daaruharidra stem (Coscinium fenestratum) and Ghotika root (Portulaca oleracea). A Pre-post Interventional study was done in 60 participants with 30 each randomly allocated to Intervention group (Group I) and Comparison group (Group II). In Group I, Medicated yavagu was administered along with Lifestyle modification which includes dietary restriction and exercise. In Group II, Lifestyle modification alone was advised. The study period was 30 days. FBS and PPBS levels were analyzed on 0th, 15th and 31st day. The study was analyzed statistically using paired t-test, student’s t-test and repeated measures ANOVA. After intervention, both Group I and II elicited statistically highly significant reduction in FBS and PPBS values (p<0.001). When comparing both groups, the effect was statistically highly significant (p<0.001) in reducing FBS and PPBS levels. The results indicates that Medicated yavagu along with Lifestyle modification is more effective than Lifestyle modification alone in Prediabetes.
Identifying Cancer Driver Genes Using Replication-Incompetent Retroviral Vectors

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

Identifying novel genes that drive tumor metastasis and drug resistance has significant potential to improve patient outcomes. High-throughput sequencing approaches have identified cancer genes, but distinguishing driver genes from passengers remains challenging. Insertional mutagenesis screens using replication-incompetent retroviral vectors have emerged as a powerful tool to identify cancer genes. Unlike replicating retroviruses and transposons, replication-incompetent retroviral vectors lack additional mutagenesis events that can complicate the identification of driver mutations from passenger mutations. They can also be used for almost any human cancer due to the broad tropism of the vectors. Replication-incompetent retroviral vectors have the ability to dysregulate nearby cancer genes via several mechanisms including enhancer-mediated activation of gene promoters. The integrated provirus acts as a unique molecular tag for nearby candidate driver genes which can be rapidly identified using well established methods that utilize next generation sequencing and bioinformatics programs. Recently, retroviral vector screens have been used to efficiently identify candidate driver genes in prostate, breast, liver and pancreatic cancers. Validated driver genes can be potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers. In this review, we describe the emergence of retroviral insertional mutagenesis screens using replication-incompetent retroviral vectors as a novel tool to identify cancer driver genes in different cancer types.
Examining the relationship between anger and violent thoughts and fantasies: A pilot study

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The aim of this pilot study was to explore the prevalence and quality of violent thoughts and fantasies of a non-violent community sample. A secondary aim was to identify the extent to which violent thoughts and fantasies were related to anger. Nineteen adults took part in the study which used a repeated measures design. Participants were asked to complete an anger assessment (STAXI-2; Spielberger, 1999) and to take part in two semi-structured interviews which enquired about the experience of violent thoughts and fantasies. A thematic analysis (Braun & Clark, 2006) yielded a number of themes including ‘desire’ and ‘elaboration’. When paired with psychometric results a relationship between violent thoughts and fantasies and high experience/low control of anger was found. This study provides evidence that violent thoughts and fantasies are associated with anger control rather than anger expression. A model designed to expand on the analysis and explore in more detail the antecedents and progressive links between anger, violent thought and fantasies has been developed and is presented herein and may be of use to professionals working with violent fantasies in clinical and non-clinical settings.
Paintings of the Education of the Virgin Mary and the Lives of Girls in Early Modern Spain

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In seventeenth-century Spain, a number of different paintings and sculptures gave visual form to the subject of the Virgin Mary's education as a young girl. Scenes of the Presentation depict her at the age of three years, taking leave of her parents and entering the Temple of Jerusalem, where she received instruction until her betrothal to St. Joseph at the age of 14. A number of memorable paintings and sculptures represent the elderly St. Anne teaching or reading with her young daughter. While these are the two best known scenes depicting Mary's education, several other types were produced by Spanish Golden Age artists. Four paintings by Sevillian artist Francisco de Zurbarán picture Mary as a young girl of about eight years old praying, embroidering, and reading, scenes that, I will argue, represent her childhood education. With the exception of the Presentation scene, all of these subjects seem to appear out of the blue in the early seventeenth century in Spanish art, as demonstrated by tender examples by Sevillian artists Francisco de Zurbarán, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, Juan de Roelas, and Juan Martínez Montañés, and seem to enjoy popularity in Spain. Why were these scenes of Mary's childhood commissioned and for whom? What visual and textual sources inspired artists and patrons? Are they primarily records of a novel trend in Marian devotion, or can such scenes tell us something of the lives of ordinary girls in early modern Spain?

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Den strategiska skogsskotseln i Sverige planeras ofta med en hundraarig planeringshorisont. For att den ska anses hallbar bor den ta hansyn till andra mal an produktion, sasom sociala varden och rennaring. Heureka PlanVis ar ett avancerat datasystem for langsiktiga skogliga analyser och med dess hjalp kan strategiska skotselplaner tas fram. Olika beslutsstod for att valja den plan mest lamplig for de givna malen, t.ex. olika Multiple Criteria Decision Analyses (MCDA), har utvecklats och testats med goda resultat. De har dock alla en svaghet som bestar i att beslutsfattaren inte har mojlighet till att studera hela spekrat av mojliga planer, utan begransas ofta till 2-4 planer. Syftet med denna studie var att undersoka tillampbarheten av att kombinera tva olika MCDA–verktyg: ”the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution” (TOPSIS) och ”the Analytic Hierarchy Process” (AHP) for att ta hansyn till multipla mal inom strategisk skoglig deltagande planering. Forst skapades ett flertal mojliga skotselplaner med Heurekas Planvis applikation. Darefter anvandes AHP for att berakna vikterna pa de kriterier som ansags definiera de givna malen, vikterna implementerades darefter i TOPSIS fran vilken planerna kunde rangordas efter hur val de uppfyllde de givna malen. Resultatet visade att kombinationen av AHP och TOPSIS ar enkelt att praktiskt implementera i en deltagande skogbruksplanering och att beslutsfattaren kunde utnyttja Heureka Planvis fulla kapaciteten att skapa manga skogsskotselplaner och darmed grunda sitt beslut pa ett bredare spektra av planer an vad tidigare varit mojligt.
IoV Road Safety: Vehicle Speed Limiting System

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Car accidents are a serious issue in our societies that need to be dealt with. One of the leading causes for car accidents deaths is speeding. Studies show that one third of serious accidents are linked to exceeding the speed limit or driving at an inappropriate speed. The speed of a vehicle is a key factor in determining the severity of an accident which implies that setting the correct speed limit for cars is an important factor for road safety. The objective of this paper is to propose a new way to control car speed limits to provide safer and better roads. The system proposed consists of a transmitter and receiver units. The transmitter will be deployed in streets constantly transmitting control data. This data will be picked by the receiver fixed in every car travelling within the transmitter's range. Upon receiving the control data, the receiver will set a speed limit to the car, preventing it from going over that speed limit. The project proposed allows communication between vehicles and road signs. Allowing communication between the road signs and vehicles is used to convey important information to regulate traffic flow. Such information would be speed limit of the road, weather conditions, congested traffic areas and alarm messages in case of emergencies. As sustainable solutions for this problem have not been identified yet, this system might be the answer.

Muhamad Abdul Mujib Fakultas Hukum Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya Jalan Semolowaru Nomor 45 Surabaya 60118, Indonesia Abstract The occult world in Indonesia has become an inseparable culture of the people, these occult experts are commonly called with shamans, paranormal, kiyai, ustadz etc., the average person is considered to have more supernatural abilities than others. In general, people in Indonesia strongly believe in things that are mystical/occult, especially Javanese society that until this modern period still hold firm beliefs of ancestral heritage tradition. The types of klenik in Java is very diverse to follow the tastes and understanding of society in general even a shaman claims himself as a multitalent who can resolve all kinds of problems ranging from mate affairs, fortune-predicting fortune, treatment, penglarisan, just stuff that smells Unbelievers, but the belief that thrives in this society is utilized by a handful of people to gain profits by claiming to have supranataural ability, some even claim to be able to bring Money unseen this becomes a phenomenon in the community and many believe it. As with the Predictive Predictions that say the ability to predict one's fate and fortune in the near or far future, the method used varies according to the dukun's belief. The question is whether or not it is just a form of fraud, then how does the law act in Indonesia in handling the phenomenon that has been in trust the community?
[Breast feeding and the nutritional status of Chilean children].

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The purpose of this work was to describe the diet of children under 18 months of age and its relationship to nutritional status. For this purpose, in 1993 a prevalence study was carried out on children who received care from the National Health Services System of Chile. The Chilean public health system provides care to 75% of children under 6 years of age and especially to children of families in the lower strata of income distribution in the country. Participants in the study were 9330 children under 18 months old who were randomly selected from 102 of the 320 urban clinics throughout the country. The type of food these infants had received the day prior to the interview (breast milk exclusively, breast milk plus solid food, formula exclusively, formula plus solid food) and their nutritional status relative to the standards of the National Center for Health Statistics (United States of America) and of WHO were determined. Children with z values for weight-for-age between -1.0 and -2.0 standard deviations were considered at risk for malnutrition, and those with z values under 2 standard deviations were classified as malnourished. The prevalences of exclusive breast-feeding at the first, third, and sixth months of life were 86.5%, 66.7%, and 25.3%, respectively. Some 12.1% of the participants showed low weight for age; 30.7%, low height for age; and 35.7%, overweight. The magnitude of weight-for-age deficiency was 1.2 to 5 times greater among children who were fed milk substitutes than among those who received breast milk. Breast-feeding also had a positive effect on height. These results confirm the benefits of exclusive breast-feeding until 6 months of age, the need to supplement the child's diet with solid food after that age, and the breast-feeding's protective effect on the nutritional status of children of all the ages studied.
A Journey in the Fourteenth Century. A Digital Reconstruction of Piazza delle Erbe in Verona

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Digital visualization as the representation of a past that no longer exists is a communicative necessity in which virtual reconstructions have become means and experience of an otherwise intangible time. The case study presented is the expression of a methodology seeking to combine informative and scientific aspects. This method aims to provide an answer to a multidisciplinary approach that characterizes the study of architectural heritage of the past where virtual reconstructions, if scientifically substantiated, can become clear and transmittable documents.
A educação moral da juventude: Entre tradição e originalidade

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

https://brasiliensis.cerm.org.br/index.php/brasiliensis/article/view/153/version/153 This article aims to concisely explain the challenge of the moral education of youth living in postmodernity and tending to reject tradition in order to live its originality as a way of demonstrating authenticity and freedom. The ideal is to know how to combine tradition with the originality of each generation, and for this we present a pedagogical itinerary that permeates the importance of the institutional element that, from the educator’s agent, must offer the transmission of theoretical and practical knowledge to awaken in the young the its potential for good; and second, from the personal element that is to take into consideration that the educator is the agonist and the learner the protagonist, since it is he who has to decide on his own life and choices from the instruments of discernment offered to him.
SEASONAL CHANGES IN THE BIOCHEMICAL INDICES OF VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY IN THE ELDERLY: A COMPARISON OF PEOPLE IN RESIDENTIAL HOMES, LONG-STAY WARDS AND ATTENDING A DAY HOSPITAL

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The seasonal changes in the biochemical indices of vitamin D nutrition have been measured in elderly people with differing requirements for institutionalized care. Residents of local authority homes (LAH) showed an increase in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] between spring and autumn (means 14-17 nmol/l, P less than 0.002). No significant seasonal changes were seen in patients on long-stay wards [(GW) serum 25(OH)D3 9.5 and 9.5 nmol/l] and in day-hospital attenders [(GDH) 25 and 26.8 nmol/l]. Significant differences (P less than 0.02 to P less than 0.0001) were found between the mean serum 25(OH)D3 amongst the three groups. A significant linear relationship (r = 0.84, P = 0.036) was found between mean serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D2[25(OH)D2] and dietary vitamin D2. The intake of vitamin D was suboptimal in all groups. The incidence of 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency [25(OH)D less than 12.5 nmol/l] varied from 11.7% of residents in LAH in autumn to 47% of GW patients in spring; but hypocalcaemia occurred less often (LAH 1.3% in autumn, GW 4.7% in spring). The diet assumes a greater role in protecting against vitamin D deficiency when the total 25(OH)D is low. Because most diets contain insufficient amounts of vitamin D, elderly institutionalized people will remain at high risk of developing vitamin D deficiency unless specific preventative measures are adopted.
DeepControl: 2D RF pulses facilitating $B_1^+$ inhomogeneity and $B_0$ off-resonance compensation in vivo at 7T

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Purpose: Rapid 2D RF pulse design with subject specific $B_1^+$ inhomogeneity and $B_0$ off-resonance compensation at 7 T predicted from convolutional neural networks is presented. Methods: The convolution neural network was trained on half a million single-channel transmit, 2D RF pulses optimized with an optimal control method using artificial 2D targets, $B_1^+$ and $B_0$ maps. Predicted pulses were tested in a phantom and in vivo at 7 T with measured $B_1^+$ and $B_0$ maps from a high-resolution GRE sequence. Results: Pulse prediction by the trained convolutional neural network was done on the fly during the MR session in approximately 9 ms for multiple hand drawn ROIs and the measured $B_1^+$ and $B_0$ maps. Compensation of $B_1^+$ inhomogeneity and $B_0$ off-resonances has been confirmed in the phantom and in vivo experiments. The reconstructed image data agrees well with the simulations using the acquired $B_1^+$ and $B_0$ maps and the 2D RF pulse predicted by the convolutional neural networks is as good as the conventional RF pulse obtained by optimal control. Conclusion: The proposed convolutional neural network based 2D RF pulse design method predicts 2D RF pulses with an excellent excitation pattern and compensated $B_1^+$ and $B_0$ variations at 7 T. The rapid 2D RF pulse prediction (9 ms) enables subject-specific high-quality 2D RF pulses without the need to run lengthy optimizations.
The Empower project – a new way of assessing and monitoring test comparability and stability

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Manufacturers and laboratories might benefit from using a modern integrated tool for quality management/assurance. The tool should not be confounded by commutability issues and focus on the intrinsic analytical quality and comparability of assays as performed in routine laboratories. In addition, it should enable monitoring of long-term stability of performance, with the possibility to quasi “real-time” remedial action. Therefore, we developed the “Empower” project. The project comprises four pillars: (i) master comparisons with panels of frozen single-donation samples, (ii) monitoring of patient percentiles and (iii) internal quality control data, and (iv) conceptual and statistical education about analytical quality. In the pillars described here (i and ii), state-of-the-art as well as biologically derived specifications are used. In the 2014 master comparisons survey, 125 laboratories forming 8 peer groups participated. It showed not only good intrinsic analytical quality of assays but also assay biases/non-comparability. Although laboratory performance was mostly satisfactory, sometimes huge between-laboratory differences were observed. In patient percentile monitoring, currently, 100 laboratories participate with 182 devices. Particularly, laboratories with a high daily throughput and low patient population variation show a stable moving median in time with good between-instrument concordance. Shifts/drifts due to lot changes are sometimes revealed. There is evidence that outpatient medians mirror the calibration set-points shown in the master comparisons. The Empower project gives manufacturers and laboratories a realistic view on assay quality/comparability as well as stability of performance and/or the reasons for increased variation. Therefore, it is a modern tool for quality management/assurance toward improved patient care.
