Task Force on Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) and Non-criteria APS Manifestations (II): thrombocytopenia and skin manifestations

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The objectives of the ‘Task Force on Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) and Non-criteria APS Manifestations’ were to assess the clinical utility of the international consensus statement on classification criteria and treatment guidelines for the catastrophic APS, to identify and grade the studies that analyze the relationship between the antiphospholipid antibodies and the non-criteria APS manifestations, and to present the current evidence regarding the accuracy of these non-criteria APS manifestations for the detection of patients with APS. This article summarizes the studies analyzed on thrombocytopenia and skin manifestations, and presents the recommendations elaborated by the Task Force after this analysis.
[Study of 50 patients with sporotrichosis. Clinical and laboratory assessment].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Because sporotrichosis is the most frequent subcutaneous mycosis in Mexico and the clinical aspect is not always characteristic, the aim of this study was to evaluate laboratory diagnosis techniques. Fifty patients with clinical diagnosis of subcutaneous sporotrichosis were studied including clinical and epidemiologic data. Metabolic antigen was used to elicit delayed hypersensitivity skin reaction in all patients. Exudate was plated on Sabouraud agar and biopsy material was submitted to indirect immunofluorescence and histopathology. Results showed that sporotrichosis frequency was higher in women (62%), in children and adolescents under 20 years of age (34%) and adults older than 50 years of age (28%). Disease was predominant in farmers (44%) followed by housewives (30%). Lymphangitic form accounted for 82% of cases and these were localized in upper limbs (54%). In 66% of cases, histopathology showed S. schenckii yeasts; hypersensitivity skin reaction was positive in 76% and culture in 94%. By indirect immunofluorescence, parasitic elements were demonstrated in all patients corresponding to both sensitivity and specificity 100%. In this work, indirect immunofluorescence was the most efficient sporotrichosis diagnostic method followed by culture, hypersensitivity skin reaction, and histopathologic study.

Internet use has become virtually universal among Australian adolescents. In the 12 months prior to April 2012, 96% of 9-11 year olds and 98% of 12-14 year olds used the Internet at home or school, and use increases with age (Australian Bureau of Statistics [ABS], 2012). Alongside this is a growing recognition that Australia's long-term social and economic prosperity will increasingly rely on professionals with high-quality skills in the use of technology, as outlined in the National Digital Economy Strategy (Department of Broadband, Communications & the Digital Economy, 2011). As such, technological competence will be crucial for the children and adolescents of today, who are destined to become the next generation of professionals.

Cross-resistance of the pathogenic fungus Alternaria alternata to fungicides with unrelated modes of action

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Background Cross-resistance, a phenomenon that a pathogen resists to one antimicrobial compound also resists to one or several other compounds, is one of major threats to human health and sustainable food production. It usually occurs among antimicrobial compounds sharing the mode of action. In this study, we determined the sensitivity profiles of Alternaria alternata, a fungal pathogen which can cause diseases in many crops to two fungicides (mancozeb and difenoconazole) with unrelated mode of action using a large number of isolates (234) collected from seven potato fields across China. Results We found that pathogens could also develop cross resistance to fungicides with different modes of action as indicated by a strong positive correlation between mancozeb and difenoconazole tolerances to A. alternata. We also found a positive association between mancozeb tolerance and aggressiveness of A. alternata, suggesting no fitness penalty of developing mancozeb resistance in the pathogen and hypothesize that mechanisms such as antimicrobial compound efflux and detoxification that limit intercellular accumulation of natural/synthetic chemicals in pathogens might account for the cross-resistance and the positive association between pathogen aggressiveness and mancozeb tolerance. Conclusions The detection of cross-resistance among different classes of fungicides suggests that the mode of action alone may not be an adequate sole criterion to determine what components to use in the mixture and/or rotation of fungicides in agricultural and medical sects. Similarly, the occurrence of a positive association between the pathogen’s aggressiveness and tolerance to mancozeb suggests that one unforeseen consequence of intensive application of site non-specific fungicides might be selection for enhanced aggressiveness in pathogen populations, thereby posing a greater threat to agricultural production and human health. In this case, the use of evolutionary principles in closely monitoring populations and the use of appropriate fungicide applications are important for effective use of the fungicides and durable infectious disease management.
H7 Inverter Using Zener Diode With Model Predictive Current Control for Common-Mode Voltage Reduction in PMSM Drive System

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In this paper, a three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI) topology is proposed to reduce the commonmode voltage (CMV) in permanent-magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drive system. The proposed VSI named H7 inverter has an additional switch connected in series between the dc bus and inverter side and the antiparallel Zener diode connected in parallel with the additional switch. When the additional switch is turned off, the dc-link voltage is blocked by the breakdown voltage of the antiparallel Zener diode. Therefore, this topology can be operated with the low CMV at the zero voltage vector by turning off the additional switch. This paper combines these advantage of the H7 inverter with model predictive control (MPC) method, where one zero voltage vector is utilized, to obtain fast transient responses and relatively low total harmonic distortion (THD) of load current. This paper also proposes a reasonable MPC method with a simple control algorithm of the additional switch to prevent the unplanned zero voltage voltages during the dead time of VSI. The operation and CMV reduction capability of the proposed topology with MPC method is verified with simulation results.
Microstructural Evolution of Calcium‐Doped α‐Alumina

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Effect of different calcium doping levels on the microstructure of high‐purity α‐alumina was studied as a function of sintering time and temperature using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Microstructural evolution was related to hypothetical calcium excess at the grain boundaries (Γ Ca ) that was calculated assuming zero solubility of calcium in bulk α‐alumina. Under all sintering conditions, grains were uniform in size and equiaxed for low calcium concentrations (<3 Ca atoms/nm 2 ). The grain morphology became elongated when the calcium concentration at the grain boundaries reached calcium excess of Γ Ca = 3–3.5 Ca atoms/nm 2 in all samples. The average grain sizes of undoped samples were ∼10% larger than the average grain sizes of low‐calcium‐doped samples. This decrease is believed to be due to solute drag effect of segregated Ca impurities on the grain boundary mobility. For the samples that were sintered at 1500° and 1600°C, slablike abnormally grown grains appeared for critical calcium excess concentrations of Γ Ca = 4.5–8 Ca atoms/nm 2 . With abnormally grown grains a dramatic increase in average grain size was observed. However, when the calcium concentration was increased further, above certain calcium excess concentration depending on sintering temperature, a significant decrease in grain size was observed. In contrast to samples sintered at 1500° and 1600°C, when the samples sintered at 1400°C, although the hypothetical calcium coverage exceeded Γ Ca = 11 Ca atoms/nm 2 , only few grains grew abnormally without significantly affecting the average grain size. Observations clearly indicated that calcium impurities caused elongated (slablike) grain morphology when their excess concentrations reached a critical level at the grain boundaries.
Comments on ‘What Does the Old Testament Mean?’

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Extract We are indebted to Professor Swinburne for a sophisticated account of the composition of scripture and of the hermeneutical possibilities for dealing with problematic biblical texts. Here I shall concentrate exclusively on what he has to say about morally problematic passages. I once heard a lay reader breeze straight through Psalm 137, not stopping at the appointed place, so that the congregation was treated to the final two verses: O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction,Happy the one who pays you backFor what you have done to us!Happy shall he be who takes your little ones,And dashes them against the rock! (Book of Common Prayer 1979: 792) I remember only one thing about the homily that morning. The preacher began by saying, ‘We were not fortunate in the choice of Scripture for today.’ I left church thinking that if any part of the Bible could be discarded, surely we could let this bit go. It seemed obvious that these words were written by someone whose heart was filled with resentment and hatred, who craved revenge, and who had no problem with killing innocent children to get it.
Bracon brevicornis linked-read genome assembly PRJEB35412

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Presented here is the Bracon brevicornis genome assembly (fasta file). Also available via the ENA (BioProject PRJEB35412), presented here as an additional file resource. Briefly, this is a 10X Genomics linked-read assembly, where B. brevicornis females of a fairly inbred lab strain were used in the DNA extraction. This DNA isolation was used in concert with DNA from a known specimen of an unrelated (plant) species where the other DNA was carrier DNA to ensure that the 10X Genomics reaction succeeded. More is explained in the forthcoming preprint (NB: to be added after it is preprinted).
Domestic violence, sex abuse, and civil society in Japan

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This chapter discusses Japanese nonprofit organizations (NPOs) established under the 1998 NPO Law. Over the past 25 years, the Japanese state has increasingly intervened in cases of domestic violence and sexual crimes, transforming taboo issues in areas of policy intervention that had been entrusted to families. Overall, civil society in Japan has been relatively weak; however, this chapter argues that NPOs have been able to find various opportunities where state services are inadequate and have gained a greater say in related policymaking.
Saccharopine dehydrogenase. Substrate inhibition studies

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

In the direction of reductive condensation of alpha-ketoglutarate and lysine, saccharopine dehydrogenase (N6-(glutar-2-yl)-L-lysine:NAD oxidoreductase (lysine-forming) is inhibited by high concentrations of alpha-ketoglutarate and lysine, but not by NADH. NAD+ and saccharopine show no substrate inhibition in the reverse direction. Substrate inhibition by alpha-ketoglutarate and lysine is linear uncompetitive versus NADH. However, when the inhibition is examined with alpha-ketoglutarate or lysine as the variable substrate, the double reciprocal plots show a family of curved lines concave up. The curvature is more pronounced with increasing concentrations of the inhibitory substrate, suggesting an interaction of variable substrate with the enzyme form carrying the inhibitory substrate. These inhibition patterns, the lack of interaction of structural analogs of lysine such as ornithine and norleucine with the E-NAD+ complex (Fujioka M., and Nakatani, Y. (1972) Eur. J. Biochem. 25, 301-307), the identity of values of inhibition constants of alpha-ketoglutarate and lysine obtained with either one as the substrate inhibitor, and the substrate inhibition data in the presence of a reaction product, NAD+, are consistent with the mechanism that substrate inhibition results from the formation of a dead-end E-NAD+-alpha-ketoglutarate complex followed by the addition of lysine to this abortive complex.
Free axisymmetric vibrations of FGM circular plates

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This work presents an approach named direct displacement method to investigate the free axisymmetric vibrations of transversely isotropic FGM circular plates whose material properties can be varied arbitrarily along the thickness of the plate. If the variation of the material properties obeys the exponential law, three-dimensionally exact solutions are obtained for two specific boundary conditions, which rigorously satisfy the governing equations and boundary conditions at every point. Alternatively, semi-analytical solutions are obtained for arbitrary variation of material properties. Numerical examples are finally shown to demonstrate the present method.
Modeling and Engineering Constrained Shortest Path Algorithms for Battery Electric Vehicles

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We study the problem of computing constrained shortest paths for battery electric vehicles. Since battery capacities are limited, fastest routes are often infeasible. Instead, users are interested in fast routes where the energy consumption does not exceed the battery capacity. For that, drivers can deliberately reduce speed to save energy. Hence, route planning should provide both path and speed recommendations. To tackle the resulting NP-hard optimization problem, previous work trades correctness or accuracy of the underlying model for practical running times. In this work, we present a novel framework to compute optimal constrained shortest paths for electric vehicles that uses more realistic physical models, while taking speed adaptation into account. Careful algorithm engineering makes the approach practical even on large, realistic road networks: We compute optimal solutions in less than a second for typical battery capacities, matching performance of previous inexact methods. For even faster performance, the approach can easily be extended with heuristics that provide high quality solutions within milliseconds.

A Discriminative Deep Neural Network for Recognizing Humor

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In humor detection task, taking a context and its title as input, the model outputs the prediction of the humor type. Some datasets contain several classes with different amounts of examples, and in some cases, this difference can be very large. Due to the imbalance of the data classification labels, the model's training progress is significantly influenced by this difference. Under the misleading of the majority classes, the model always treats most of the examples as a few majority labels, and other minority classes cannot be learned. In our work, we propose a neural model with over-sampling and focal loss to solve this imbalanced data problem. The over-sampling method is used for the aspect of data, and the focal loss method is used for the aspect of model training. We conduct experiments on the Wocka joke dataset, and experimental results demonstrate that our model outperforms the baseline model in terms of accuracy.
Cause and Clinical Profile of 379 cases of Ocular Trauma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Ocular trauma is a major cause of monocular blindness and visual impairment throughout the world. Population based epidemiological studies in south India have found prevalence rates of 2-10%. The aim of our study was to find the demographic and clinical profile of patients with ocular trauma. Materials and methods: All patients who came to our emergency services between July 2004 and January 2005, with history of ocular trauma or foreign body in either eye, within 2 weeks of the date of presentation were included in this prospective, cross sectional survey and underwent a complete eye examination including best corrected visual acuity, slit lamp examination and fundoscopy. Results: Age distribution of ocular trauma showed gradual decline with age with maximum number of patients in the 0-10 year age group. Temporal spectrum showed a bimodal peak in January and November. Male predomination accounted for 71 % of patients. Work related trauma accounted only for 22.4% of patients. The “stick” predominated as the premier object of insult (22.2%), Vegetative matter 10.4%. Road Traffic Accidents 9.4% and Metal 8.2%. Chemical injuries accounted for 7.7% and Open globe injuries 19.3% of patients. Conclusions: The demographic factors associated with an increased incidence of ocular trauma include young age, male sex and festive seasons of the calendar year including November and January. The “stick” was the most common object of insult. Clinical profile showed a high incidence of open globe injuries(19.3%). This study highlights some differences in the profile of ocular trauma as seen in a developing country. The predominant occupation in rural India is agriculture and the premier form of fuel used in most households for cooking is firewood. Thus the results of a high percentage of ocular trauma related to sticks and vegetative matter. Chemical injuries which accounted for 7.7% of patients with ocular trauma and were predominantly related to the local practicesof “pan” chewing. The high percentage of open globe injuries is indicative of the severity of ocular trauma seen in rural India.
Noise-Aware Intermediary Fusion Network for Off-Road Freespace Detection

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Freespace detection holds a crucial role in autonomous driving technology, particularly in unstructured offroad scenarios that present additional challenges compared to structured road environments. Multimodal fusion methods are widely recognized as effective strategies for addressing these challenges. However, current fusion methods often overlook the critical issue of noise interference in multimodal data. To address this issue, we propose a novel Noise-Aware Intermediary Fusion Network for off-road freespace detection, named NAIFNet. This framework is specifically designed to mitigate noise interference during multimodal fusion. The key component of NAIFNet is the Noise-Aware Intermediary Interaction (NAII) module, which incorporates a denoising template as an intermediary during the fusion process. The NAII module employs multimodal features as query vectors, while the key and value vectors are derived from the search region features of the denoising template. At the same time, noise-aware interaction ensures effective denoising for data in each modality. Furthermore, in the decoding phase, we introduce the Denoising-Guided Decoder (DGD). Leveraging the denoising template, this decoder achieves more precise feature restoration and effectively mitigates the impact of noise. Extensive experiments on the popular benchmark of the offroad freespace detection dataset (ORFD) demonstrate that the proposed NAIFNet achieves state-of-the-art performance.
MATERIAL INFLUENCES IN MR TOMOGRAPHY, MEASUREMENT AND SIMULATION

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Materials with different electrical conductivity an d/or magnetic susceptibility can cause deformation of magnetic field in MR to- mograph, resulting in errors in obtained image. Usi ng simulation and experimental verification we can solve the effect of changes in homogeneity of static and HF magnetic fields cau sed by specimen made from conductive and/or magnetic material in MR tomo- graph. This paper describes theoretical base and ex perimental measurement of the magnetic resonance imaging method for suscep- tibility measurement. Below in this paper we will d iscuss measuring technique, which is suitable for s ubstances with no signal in MR tomography. The method uses deformation of magnetic induction field in specimen vicinity. For MR pu rposes it is necessary to immerse specimen into reference medium with measurable MR signal (demineralized water is suitable). Finally, measured data obtained by means of the method using MRI will be shown. Shape of magnetic field changed by specimen i mpact (reaction field) we measure by means of Gradient Echo (GE) measuring method.
