Does constituency analysis enhance domain-specific pre-trained BERT models for relation extraction?

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Recently many studies have been conducted on the topic of relation extraction. The DrugProt track at BioCreative VII provides a manually-annotated corpus for the purpose of the development and evaluation of relation extraction systems, in which interactions between chemicals and genes are studied. We describe the ensemble system that we used for our submission, which combines predictions of fine-tuned bioBERT, sciBERT and const-bioBERT models by majority voting. We specifically tested the contribution of syntactic information to relation extraction with BERT. We observed that adding constituentbased syntactic information to BERT improved precision, but decreased recall, since relations rarely seen in the train set were less likely to be predicted by BERT models in which the syntactic information is infused. Our code is available online [https://github.com/Maple177/drugprot-relation-extraction].
Design And Performance Of A Day/night Aspect System For The EXITE Balloon-borne Hard X-ray Telescope

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We report on the design, development, testing and flight usage of a complete aspect system for the balloon borne Energetic X-ray Imaging Telescope Experiment (EXITE) payload. The aspect systems are designed to provide both real-time and postfacto aspect information for the telescope pointing direction. The aspect system included two independent day-time systems: a sun sensor for determination of the solar azimuth and an integrating CCD TV camera, with deepred filter, for direct detection of bright stars in the day sky. The night-time aspect system included an intensified CCD camera and TV link for direct viewing and recording of the telescope pointing direction. All three systems were tested and used on a successful balloon flight of the EXITE payload from Alice Springs, AUS tralia, on May 9-10, 1989. Real-time aspect was obtained at the 10 arcmin level, sufficient for initial target acquisition and subsequent gyro drift updates for source tracking, for both day and night targets using the sun-semr and intensified TV systems, respectively. Postfacto aspect at the & 3 arcmin level is obtained. Analysis of the near-IR CCD images of bright star fields recorded in daytime at balloon altitudes (4 g/cm2) is in progress and will be reported in a subsequent publication.
The Evil Eye and the Curse of the Law: Galatians 3.1 Revisited

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Paul’s question in Gal. 3.1, ‘Who has cast the evil eye on you?’, echoes the Deuteronomic curse in which starving parents cast the evil eye and devour their own children. This echo anticipates Paul’s presentation of Christ crucified as the antidote to the curse of the law in ch. 3. It also underwrites Paul’s use of parent-child imagery, in ch. 4, to depict his gracious gospel as the free mother who bears children for freedom, but the law-inscribing mission as an enslaved mother whose children will never reach maturity.
Design and Planning Opportunities for Effectively Minimizing Worker Exposure to Cumulative Health Hazards

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

A proper agenda for hazards with a cumulative impact on the human health is lacking in the construction industry. Poor preventative and compensatory health practices with large deficiencies in employers' understanding of cumulative health hazards are contributing to this dearth. Profitability, the economic motivation of the construction industry establishes an opportunity for identifying health practices that can potentially mitigate the exposure of its skilled workforce to both short-term and long-term health hazards. Design and planning offer opportunities to both engineers and managers to minimize the exposure of construction workers to cumulative hazards, but such opportunities have not been documented or investigated. In this study, qualitative and quantitative methods are used to determine the practices for the prevention of exposures to welding fumes and crystalline silica. A content analysis of semi-structured interviews with workers and occupational safety and health experts is used to develop survey questions. This study leverages the Delphi method, a structured expert elicitation technique, and uses the survey questions to facilitate the identification and characterize of a comprehensive list of practices spanning planning, design, construction, and work hygiene opportunities/practices. What emerges is that the areas where the greatest opportunity to influence worker health can be at the design and planning stages of a project—potentially creating a new professional paradigm for the construction industry. This research brings to light that ultimately, it is not short-term profitability concerns that prevent the implementation of health practices, but rather it is the need for increasing the understanding within the construction industry of how worker health is directly tied to productivity and profitability in overall business processes.

191 Private Parts: Sexual Disease and the Limits of Diagnostic Authority

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

For most of medical history, doctors could offer little by way of cure; their most powerful interventions were diagnostic, explaining the phenomena that they were asked to treat and guiding patient behavior in response. Sexual diseases, including abnormalities of genital form and function, are paradoxically both personal and social, involving both ‘private parts’ and public relationships. This complexity posed a particular challenge to doctors seeking to assert professional power over their clientele. This paper uses the changing methods of diagnosing sexual disease in Europe from the 17th to the 19th centuries as a lens through which to elucidate how physicians secured their diagnostic authority during that period. Close reading, period contextualization, and social-constructivist analysis of the relevant primary and secondary source literature, including medical correspondence, legal records, and case reports. Medical practice changed significantly during the long 18th century, migrating from the patient’s home to the doctor’s clinic, and deemphasizing patient narrative in favor of hands-on physical examination. Through these changes, doctors established their singular command of the interpretive frameworks applied to illness, in contrast with the sharing of diagnostic authority between physicians, patients, and bystanders that had previously been a fundamental part of sexual disease definition and intervention.

Implications of pharmacokinetic modeling in risk assessment analysis.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Physiologic pharmacokinetic models are a useful interface between exposure models and risk assessment models by providing a means to estimate tissue concentrations of reactive chemical species at the site of action. The models utilize numerous parameters that can be characterized as anatomical, such as body size or tissue volume; physiological, such as tissue blood perfusion rates, clearances, and metabolism; thermodynamic, such as partition coefficients; and transport, such as membrane permeabilities. The models provide a format to investigate how these parameters can influence the disposition of chemicals throughout the body, which is an important consideration in interpreting toxicity studies. Physiologic models can take into account nonlinear effects related to clearance, metabolism, or transport. They allow for extrapolation of tissue concentration from high dose to low dose experiments and from species to species and can account for temporal variations in dose.
ANTIGLOBULINS IN NORMAL SERUM. 3. DEMONSTRATION OF ANTIGLOBULINS IN THE NORMAL SERA OF DOGS, GUINEA PIGS, SHEEP, SWINE, SQUIRREL MONKEYS AND TURKEYS.

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

Summary Sera obtained from dogs, guinea pigs, swine, squirrel monkeys, sheep and turkeys were examined for the presence and amount of three “antiglobulins”: a) a heat-labile latex-fixation factor, b) a heat-labile latex-fixation-inhibitor and c) a heat-stable Waaler-Rose factor. Heat-labile latex-fixation factors and heat-stable Waaler-Rose factors were found in all of the sera tested. The rapidity of inactivation of the heat-labile latex-fixation factor at 56°C was found to be characteristic of the species. Heat-labile latex-fixation-inhibitors were found in the sera of dogs, swine, monkeys and guinea pigs, but not in the sera of sheep or turkeys. A fourth “antiglobulin,” “a heat-stable latex-fixation factor,” was found in the sera of 5 out of 12 dogs and 10 out of 12 swine. At present the origin and significance of these apparently normal serum factors are unknown.
Proteomics reveal a link between the endoplasmic reticulum and lipid secretory mechanisms in mammary epithelial cells

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

The synthesis and secretion of lipids by mammary epithelial cells is a highly ordered process that involves several distinct steps. Triacylglycerols are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum and incorporated into microlipid droplets which coalesce into cytoplasmic lipid droplets. These are vectorially transported to the apical plasma membrane where they are secreted into the milk surrounded by a membrane bilayer. The origin of this membrane as well as the mechanism by which cytoplasmic lipid droplets form and become surrounded by membrane is poorly understood. Proteomic analysis of the protein composition of milk fat globules and cytoplasmic lipid droplet has revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum is not only involved in the synthesis of the lipid but also potentially contributes to the membrane component of milk fat globules. The proteins identified suggest possible mechanisms of multiple steps during this process. Completion of the proteome of milk fat globule membranes and cytoplasmic lipid droplets will provide the necessary reporter molecules to follow and dissect the mechanisms of the sorting and ultimate secretion of cytoplasmic lipid droplets.
Dynamic Quantitative Evaluation of Contrast-Enhanced Endoscopic Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Diseases

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) with time-intensity curve (TIC) in differentiating pancreatic diseases.Patients who underwent contrast-enhanced EUS between January 2007 and June 2009 were analyzed retrospectively, including 48 with pancreatic ductal cancer (PC), 14 with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), 13 with mass-forming pancreatitis (MFP), and 16 with pancreatic endocrine tumor (PET). After intravenous injection of contrast agent, contrast imaging pattern, TIC-based quantitative evaluation, and diagnostic ability of EUS in combination with TIC to diagnose benignancy or malignancy were assessed.Hypovascular and heterogeneous pattern (42/48) in PC, isovascular and homogenous (21/27) in AIP and MFP, and hypervascular and rapid stained (16/16) in PET were observed. The echo intensity reduction rate from the peak at 1 minute was the greatest in PC followed by MFP, AIP, and PET (P < 0.05). The diagnostic accuracies based on contrast imaging pattern (84.0%) and TIC (88.0%) were higher than those based on B-mode imaging (82.6%) and dynamic computed tomography (81.3%). In EUS in combination with TIC, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy rose up to 95.8%, 92.6%, and 94.7%, respectively.Contrast-enhanced EUS with the dynamic quantitative analysis preparing TIC increased the diagnostic accuracy for pancreatic diseases.
Aspect of fiscal consolidation: Evidence from Serbia

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

In contemporary market conditions facing continuous debt crisis, the notion of fiscal consolidation is one of potential solutions for solving the main economic issues in any country. As regards fiscal consolidation, it necessary to point out to the importance of developing strategies aimed at minimizing deficit and debt level. Serbia is among those countries in which irrational spending is widely present with unfavourable tendency regarding the aspect of production and consumption. Over the past 25 years, Serbia has spent much more than it has produced, which has led to large budget deficits and debt level. The aim is to point out to the concept of fiscal consolidation and its implementation in Serbia, while the subject of this paper is to present the package of measures and strategies defined by the government of the Republic of Serbia and the Fiscal Council Program.

Between Land and Sea : The Chekka Region in Lebanon

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Between Ras Chekka (north of Batroun) and Enfeh lies the Chekka Bay. The Wadi Asfur flows into this natural harbour basin connection the coast with the mountainous hinterland. \nDirectly at sea shore lies Tell Mirhan, a major site, which dominated this Bay during the Bronze and Iron Ages. Since 2016 the American University of Beirut and the Institute for Oriental and European Archaeology of Austrian Acedemy of Sciences are excavating Tell Mirhan and conducting a survey in its associated hinterland. \nThe karstic promontories of Mount Lebanon are a rather difficult terrain to survey. In order to cope with the Mediterranean vegetation, the rapidly progressing terracing and modern constructions at the coast and in the mountains, we decided to scan this area. Thus, in autumn of 2018 we joined with the Department of physical geography from the University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt and the Lebanese Army to conduct a Lidar survey of the region and to combine this with traditional survey methods. The first preliminary results will be presented here.
Through the Lens of Schizophrenia: Recognizing Negative Facial Expressions and Family Patterns

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Abstract:Schizophrenia is a complex disorder with symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and impaired social interactions, and deficits in facial emotion recognition are a key area of impairment. Studies indicate that recognizing facial emotions is essential for social interaction, and individuals with schizophrenia show significant difficulties, especially in recognizing negative emotions. Previous research has primarily focused on patients, with less attention on their first-degree relatives. This study investigates the ability to recognize negative facial expressions in paranoid and non-paranoid schizophrenia patients, their siblings, and matched healthy controls. This cross-sectional study included 60 paranoid schizophrenia patients, 60 non-paranoid schizophrenia patients, 59 siblings of paranoid patients, 60 siblings of non-paranoid patients, and 30 healthy controls, recruited from outpatients at Razi Hospital in Tabriz, Iran. The mean age was 35.7 years, and 54% of participants were female. The Ekman 60 Faces Test assessed the recognition of basic facial emotions, focusing on negative emotions. The results revealed that paranoid schizophrenia patients showed significantly lower performance in recognizing negative facial emotions (mean score: 15.7) compared to non-paranoid patients (16.4) and siblings (28.1 for paranoid siblings, 27.4 for non-paranoid siblings). In contrast, healthy controls scored highest (29.0). This study highlights the deficits in emotion recognition in schizophrenia and their potential genetic underpinnings within family lines, contributing to understanding social cognition deficits related to the disorder.
Salivary mesenchyme cells that induce mammary epithelial hyperplasia up-regulate EGF receptors in primary cultures of mammary epithelium within collagen gels.

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

Salivary mesenchyme is a potent stimulator of mammary epithelial hyperplasia and carcinogen-induced tumor formation in vivo. We have utilized a three-dimensional collagen gel culture system, which mimics the in vivo growth environment, to identify growth stimulatory molecules produced by salivary mesenchyme cells. In this report we describe the development and characteristics of salivary mesenchyme cell lines, and we present further evidence that these cells produce growth factor(s) which could account for the effect by interacting with epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors on primary mouse mammary epithelial cells isolated from midpregnant mice. Using a receptor assay with isolated cell membranes, we characterized [125I]-EGF binding to mammary epithelial cells cultured within collagen gels. Scatchard analysis revealed one class of high affinity EGF receptors with a Kd ranging from 8.3 x 10(-11) M on day one to 5.1 x 10(-11) M on day 10 of the culture period. Addition of 10 ng/ml purified EGF to the culture medium progressively up-regulated the expression of EGF receptors during a 10-day culture period. Scatchard analysis showed that the increase in specific [125I]-EGF binding was due predominantly to an increase in EGF receptor number. We also demonstrated that conditioned medium collected from salivary mesenchyme cells competed effectively for EGF receptor sites on mammary epithelial cells, and chronic exposure to conditioned medium up-regulated EGF receptor expression. Thus, EGF-related growth factor(s) released by salivary mesenchyme cells may induce hyperplasia of adjacent mammary epithelium in vivo, both by directly activating EGF receptors, and by provoking long term up-regulation of EGF receptors.
On results of certain modules over untwisted affine Liesuperalgebras

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Since 2020, finite weight modules have been studied over twisted affine Lie superalgebras. To complete the characterization of modules over affine Lie superalgebras, we need some information regarding modules over untwisted affine Lie superalgebras. There are several known results on representations of twisted affine Lie superalgebras that hold for untwisted cases, and their proofs are just a minor modification of the known ones. In this note, we gather these results for our further use.
The Ecclesial Notions of the Apocalypse in Recent Studies

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Images of the church are found scattered throughout the Apocalypse. These have thus been the focus of recent studies in the ecclesial notions of the seer of Patmos. But as this article illustrates, these studies vary to some extent in their principal focus while the methods of approach have been remarkably 'selective' in their treatment of the many church images of the book. As a way of bringing together these disparate methods and focus, this article discusses seven key thematic emphases in the recent studies of the seer's ecclesial notions since the 1950s, which could perhaps serve as 'rallying points' for further development of a more comprehensive portrait of the church in the Apocalypse: the 'cross-event' as underpinning; the eschatologi cal people of God; a community of equality; corporate in nature; non-addi tive in character; a community seeking repentance; and a trans-historical view of reality.
Evaluation of analgesic potential of Boerhavia diffusa roots in albino mice

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

The present research was designed to evaluate the analgesic potential of Boerhavia diffusa root powder 150 mg/kg, p.o in albino mice. Boerhavia diffusa is a popular herb in ayurveda which is also known as Punarnava. Boerhavia diffusa root powder was procured from a local ayurvedic store. The analgesic effect of the root powder was evaluated by using acetic acid induced writhings test in mice. It was found that Boerhavia diffusa root powder at a dose of 150 mg/kg treated for 15 days has significantly inhibited pain induced by acetic acid by decreasing the number of writhing responses such as extension of hind limbs (22±0.77), abdominal constrictions (13±0.08) and trunk twisting (20±0.55) when compared to control treated mice i.e extension of hind limbs (38±0.17), abdominal constrictions (26±1.23) and trunk twisting (24±0.55) in control mice. The results were compared with standard diclofenac sodium (25 mg/kg, p.o) treated mice. Hence it is evident from the above results that boerhavia diffusa at 150 mg/kg possesses significant analgesic potential.
