How do environmental agents affect inflammatory skin disease?

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Antigenic stimulation is increasingly recognized as a cause of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, as well as the cause of allergic contact dermatitis. Interaction between the cutaneous immune system and environment is dependent on many factors, including existing inflammation of the skin at the time of antigen presentation, the nature of antigen presented, genetically determined features of the host immune system, anatomical features of the skin at the site of antigen presentation and other environmental factors, such as ultraviolet light and psychological stress. These variables create a complex set of immunological responses that may include tolerance, antibody-mediated responses and cell-mediated responses. Scientific understanding of these variables allows insights into the pathogenesis of inflammatory skin diseases and will lead to new treatment options.

Coupling Nuclear Induced Phonon Propagation with Conversion Electron Moessbauer Spectroscopy

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Abstract : Moessbauer spectroscopy is a very sensitive measurement technique (10 (exp -8) eV) which prompted motivation for the experiment described in this thesis. Namely, can a sensitive detection system be developed to detect nuclear recoils on the order of 10 to 100 of eVs? The hypothesis that this thesis tests is: Nuclear induced phonon bursts caused by Rutherford scattered alphas, decayed from Am241, in a type-310 stainless steel material can couple with 7.3keV conversion electron Moessbauer events at the other end of the material which will have a statistically significant effect on a Moessbauer spectrum. The phonon bursts produced by the alpha collisions are expected to be very low energy at the other end of length of material. Since Moessbauer spectroscopy is sensitive and can detect the very low energy phonons, the spectrum is expected to change in at least one of the five areas after coupling occurs: broadening in the spectrum peaks, increased/decreased background counting rate, Mossbauer peak asymmetry, increased/decreased counting rate under the peak, and/or a peak centroid shift. This research aims to determine the significance of changes between spectra with phonon bursts and with no phonon bursts through hypothesis testing, where the null hypothesis is where phonons do not affect Moessbauer spectra in one of the five areas mentioned previously. After the spectra and results were analyze using an f-test and t-test comparisons, this experiment failed to reject the null result. Leading to the conclusion that additional research must be conducted.
Leading Particle Effect in the J/ψ Elasticity Distribution

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Recent DESY-HERA data on J/Ψ elasticity distribution show that it emerges mostly as a fast particle. Interpreting photoproduction as a collision between a pre-formed charmed hadron and the proton, the outcoming J/Ψ is a leading particle of the collision. We analyse these data using a model formulated to describe energy flow in hadron-hadron reactions. The measured J/Ψ spectrum can be successfully described in terms of this model. We conclude that the observed transparency of the charmed hadron-proton collisions arises because of the particularly small gluonic content of the initial c − c state. PACS number(s): 13.85.Qk, 11.55.Jy The leading particle effect is one of the most interesting features of multiparticle production in hadronhadron collisions [1]. In these reactions the valence quarks of the projectile emerge from the collision carrying the initial state quantum numbers. All produced particles come essentially from the gluons and quark-antiquark pairs already pre-existing in the projectile and target, or radiated during the collision. This qualitative picture takes different implementations in the many existing multiparticle production models. In one of them, the Interacting Gluon Model (IGM) [2, 3, 4, 5], the produced particles (and consequently the energy released in the secondaries and lost by the projectiles) come almost entirely from the pre-existing gluons in the incoming
M. K. Čiurlionis and St. Petersburg: New Facts Concerning His PaintingBlack Sun

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Summary It is a well-known fact among Lithuanian scholars of studies on Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis (1875–1911) that Igor Stravinsky (1882–1971) once owned Čiurlionis’ painting Black Sun (or Ballad ). However, it is known only by a reproduction printed in a Russian art magazine Аполлон [ Apollon ] 1 , with a title Conte fantastique and Сказка [ Fairy Tale ] and Stravinsky was specified as an owner of the painting and other details have not been well-researched. Even though some researchers visited St. Petersburg to find the painting several years ago, yet no trace was ever found. In this article, first we would like to look back at Čiurlionis’ visits to St. Petersburg and then, reveal new facts on concerts in which Čiurlionis’ music was performed and more over concerning Čiurlionis’ painting Black Sun how Stravinsky became interested in the painting by introducing letters exchanged between Stravinsky, Alexandre Benois and Andrey Rimsky-Korsakov.

Perceived Organizational Support, Coworkers’ Conflict and Organizational Citizenship Behavior: The Mediation Role of Work-Family Conflict

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The aim of the present study is to investigate the extent to which perceived organizational support and coworkers’ conflict and work-family conflict play a role in the performance of three types of organizational citizenship behaviors. A cross-sectional design was used comprising a sample of 164 health support workers working in Portuguese elderly care facilities. Using structural equation model findings showed that perceived organizational support is linked with organizational citizenship behaviors, directly and indirectly, via work-family conflict. Furthermore, coworkers’ conflict was also related with organizational citizenship behaviors, directly and indirectly via work-family conflict. The linkage between perceived organizational support and coworkers’ conflict through work-family conflict can offer new insights into how to enhance organizational citizenship behaviors by active management. These findings can help elderly care organizations and their managers to design better workplace conditions where organizational support and coworkers’ conflict can be better managed allowing workers to have more control over work-family conflict and promoting organizational citizenship behaviors.
THREE NEW CLOSELY RELATED SPECIES OF HEMICYCLIOPHORA DE MAN (CRICONEMATIDAE: NEMATODA) FROM CANADA

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Three new species of the genus Hemicydiophora, closely related to H. similis Thorne, 1955 and H. silvestris Jenkins and Reed, 1964, are described. These are H. vivida, H. shepherdi, and H. minora. H. vivida differs from H. silvestris in the more anterior location of the vulva, the smaller relative length of spear to total body length, the hemizonid covering three annules, and the pattern of the en face view being different. H. shepherdi differs from H. similis in having a smaller number of annules between vulva and anus, and a smaller and elevated labial disc. H. minora differs from the above-mentioned species in being the smallest nematode and in having the excretory pore more anterior in location and a greater relative length of spear to total body length.
The Effects of PNF Pattern Training on the Walking Ability of Total Knee Replacement Patients

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The purpose of this study was to verify the effectiveness of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation pattern to improve walking ability of total knee replacement patients. In this study, 10 patients with total knee replacement were recruited from rehabilitation hospital. They were divided into two groups: a PNF group (n=5) and a control group (n=5). The PNF group received 30 minutes of continuous passive motion (CPM) and PNF training for 15 minutes five times a week for two weeks. The control group received 30 minutes of CPM and strengthening exercise for 15minutes five times a week for two weeks. Spatiotemporal parameters were measured by Biodex gait trainer 2. After the training periods, the PNF group showed a significant improvement in walking speed and step length on the non-operated side, time on each foot on the operated side (p<0.05). The results of this study showed that PNF pattern training was more effective at improving walking ability. Therefore, improve the walking ability of total knee replacement patients, PNF lower pattern should be considered.

Lesotho - Debt management performance assessment

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

From September 21 to September 28, 2012, a joint World Bank and Macroeconomic and Financial Management Institute of Eastern and Southern Africa (MEFMI) team visited Maseru, Lesotho to undertake a comprehensive assessment of debt management functions. The team used the Debt Management Performance Assessment (DeMPA) tool. In the governance and strategy area, there is a clear delegation to the minister of finance for borrowing and issuance of guarantees, but the mechanisms for coordination are not well developed. The coordination with macroeconomic policies generally meets the minimum requirements even though there is no clear separation with monetary operations. Cash management is not actively conducted despite very large cash balances in the Central Bank of Lesotho (CBL). There is no cash flow forecasting and no interest is earned on government cash balances. Strengths have been identified in the operational risk management area. There is a duality requirement for recording of both domestic and external loans. The debt records are not complete as domestic guarantees generally are not recorded. The treasury bonds and bills are recorded by the Public Debt Management Division (PDMD) with an average lag of three months.
In-situ Synthesis of Perovskite SrTiO3 Nanostructures with Modified Morphology and Tunable Optical Absorption Property

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

As a perovskite family member, SrTiO 3 shows significant applications in the fields of solar cells, photocatalysis, fuel cells and superconducting as a dependence of its crystallinity, morphology, crystal facet and optical properties.In this work, we reported an in-situ synthetic approach of SrTiO 3 nanostructures with modified morphology and tunable optical absorption properties based on conventional plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) associated with hydrothermal method.The morphology of SrTiO 3 nanostructures can be selectively modified from microcubes with smooth facets to ultrathin nanosheets by controlling the concentration of Sr source during PEO process.It is found that both SrTiO 3 microcubes and Sr 1-δ TiO 3 nanosheets are well-crystallized single crystals.UV-Vis diffuse reactance spectrum (DRS) measurement reveals that Sr 1-δ TiO 3 nanosheets with thin thickness show obvious blue-shift of absorption edge in comparison with SrTiO 3 microcubes due to the size effect.Finally, the morphology evolution and nucleation mechanism of SrTiO 3 nanostructures in-situ grown on PEO film is discussed.
Towards incremental hierarchical behavior generation for humanoids

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we present a new conceptual framework for modeling incremental hierarchical behavior control systems for humanoids. The biological motivation and the key elements are discussed. Second, we show our current instance of such a behavior control system, called ALIS. It is designed according to the concepts presented within the framework. The system is integrated with the humanoid ASIMO and comprises visual saliency computation and auditory source localization for gaze selection, a visual proto-object based fixation and short term memory of the current visual field of view, the online learning of visual appearances of such proto-objects and an interaction oriented control of the humanoid body including walking. Humans can freely interact with the system in real-time. Experiments show the feasibility of the chosen ansatz.
Studies on Application of Plant Cytolemma Regulator "Tianda-2116" on Flax in the East of Gansu Province

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

In the past three years, field studies on test and demonstration of plant cytolemma regulators Tianda-2116 on flax were carried out in the east of Gansu province. The results showed that the flax field, sprayed by Tianda-2116, had an increase of yield between 4.8%~20.4% as compared with CK. Experiments also indicated that better results came with the application of Tianda-2116 having a concentration of 0.33% in normal years and 0.14% in dry years. It is suggested that farmers use 0.2% of Tianda-2116 solution for spray application in fields.
A GraphKAN-Based Intelligent Fault Diagnosis Method of Rolling Bearing Under Variable Working Conditions

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) can effectively address the two main drawbacks of transfer learning: the requirement of a large number of samples collected from different working conditions, and the inherent defects of convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In the realm of UDA, it is essential to leverage three types of information: class labels, domain specifications, and data organization. These components play a vital role in linking the source domain with the target domain. A technique aimed at identifying issues in rolling bearings is presented, employing an integration of CNN-KAN and GraphKAN structures to support the UDA methodology. A cohesive deep learning architecture is employed to represent the three types of information involved in UDA. The initial two types of information are represented through the roles of classifier and domain discriminator. To begin with, an architecture leveraging CNN-KAN is employed to extract features from the incoming signals. Following this, the features obtained from the CNN-KAN architecture are input into a specially developed graph creation layer that constructs instance graphs by analyzing the relationships among the structural characteristics found within the samples. In the following step, an innovative GraphKAN model is applied to illustrate the instance graphs, concurrently employing CORrelation ALignment (CORAL) loss to assess the structural discrepancies among instance graphs from different domains. Results from experiments conducted on two separate datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework surpasses alternative approaches and successfully recognizes transferable characteristics that are advantageous for domain adaptation.
Cowpea Adaptability to Southeastern Organic Farming Systems: Forage Productivity and Charcoal Rot Susceptibility

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is a warm-season, multi-purpose legume that is well-adapted to the southeastern USA and has many traits that make it an attractive forage or cover crop for integration into organic production systems, including high rates of nitrogen (N) fixation, phosphorus (P) use efficiency, regrowth ability, and high digestibility. Eight cowpea varieties were evaluated under organic management at two locations in summer 2014 for stand establishment, forage yield and quality, and weed biomass. Charcoal rot [Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid.] is a fungal disease that is economically important to many host plant species. High temperatures and drought conditions favor disease development making it difficult to predict when disease outbreak will occur. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) is an important crop for many regions of the globe and is a host species for M. phaseolina. Efforts have been made to breed genetic lines that are resistant to M. phaseolina but little research has been done to screen many popular cowpea cultivars for resistance. This study includes an inoculated field trial and greenhouse seedling screening of twenty-six cowpea lines to identify resistance to charcoal rot.
[Analysis of HLA-B locus gene polymorphism in Sichuan Yi ethnic group and Xinjiang Uygur ethnic group].

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

The polymorphism of HLA-B alleles in Sichuan Yi and Xinjiang Uygur population was investigated using the PCR-SSP method. Twenty one alleles were detected in HLA-B loci in 106 Sichuan unrelated Yi healthy subjects. Of them, B*40, B*15 and B*51 were the most common alleles with an allele frequency of 0.1981, 0.1368, 0.1274, respectively; while B*47, B*44, B*18, B*57 and B*78 were the rare alleles with an allele frequency of 0.0189, 0.0142, 0.0094, 0.0047 and 0.0047, respectively. The distribution of HLA-B allele frequencies in Sichuan Yis was between Southern Han and Northern Han. In 110 Xinjiang unrelated healthy Uygur subjects, 27 alleles were detected in HLA-B loci. Of them, B*35 and B*51 were the most common alleles with an allele frequency of 0.1136 and 0.1136, respectively; while B*41, B*56 and B*78 were the rare alleles with a frequency of 0.0045, 0.0045 and 0.0091, respectively. Frequencies of "Caucasoid origin" HLA alleles such as B*08, B*35 and B*50 in Xinjiang Uygurs were higher than other ethnic groups in China. The result of chi2 tests showed that the distributions of HLA-B alleles in Yi and Uygur ethnic groups were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Heterozygosity (H), discrimination power (DP) and probability of paternity exclusion (EP) of HLA-B locus from Sichuan Yi ethnic group were computed to be 0.8977, 0.9661 and 0.8009; and those from Xinjiang Uygur ethnic group were 0.9372, 0.9857 and 0.8732. The data obtained in this study on the distributions of HLA-B alleles in the Sichuan Yi and Xinjiang Uygur population provide important group genetics information for forensic and paternity tests to estimate the frequency of a DNA profile in these two populations, and can be used in transplant matching, anthropological and disease association studies.
Effects of Platelet-Rich Fibrin/Collagen Membrane on Sciatic Nerve Regeneration

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Alternative treatment approaches to improve the regeneration ability of damaged peripheral nerves are currently under investigation. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of leucocyte/platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) with or without a collagen membrane as a supporter on crushed sciatic nerve healing in a rat model. Recovery of motor function and electrophysiologic measurements were evaluated at 4 weeks postoperatively. The whole number of myelinated axons, peripheral nerve axon density, average nerve fiber diameter (μm), and G-ratio were analyzed and compered among the groups. Functional, electrophysiological, and histological evaluations showed no significant difference among the groups with the exception of the L-PRF with collagen membrane groups that showed relatively positive effects on the functional and histological nerve recovery. In addition, the collagen membrane with L-PRF can be effect in nerve regeneration.
Estimation of Semiparametric Censored Regression Models: An Application to Changes in Black-White Earnings Inequality during the 1960s

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Building on the work of Chay (1995), this study examines the impact of civil rights policies on black economic progress using individual-level panel data. Many earnings records are censored and the degree of censoring changed during the period of interest. Consequently, valid estimates of the program effects must account for this censoring. Maximum likelihood estimation can be used if the error terms of the model are identically normally distributed. We investigate the value of using weaker assumptions on the error process to estimate the laws impact. The analysis shows that there was significant black-white earnings convergence in the South during the 1960s. We also find that semiparametric estimation methods are informative in pinpointing which parts of the model are mis-specified.
