EPR study of β‐methylene proton magnetic inequivalence in monomeric addition radicals derived from mono‐ and 1,1′‐disubstituted ethylenes with chiral and non‐chiral substituents

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Using rapid‐mixing, continuous‐flow TiCl 3 ‐based techniques at 25°C monomeric addition radicals of general formula · CX(Y)CH 2 C * HR 1 R 2 , where R 1 and R 2 are different groups, neither being H, so that C * is a chiral center, were characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance. These species were generated by adding · CH(CH 3 )OH, CH(CH 3 )OCH 2 CH 3 ,.CH(CH 3 )OC(O)H,.CH(CH 3 )OC(O)CH 3 and radicals in turn to each of the monomers, of general structure CX(Y)CH 2 , acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, tert ‐butyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, methacrylonitrile, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid and but‐3‐ene‐1,2,3‐tricarboxylic acid. Similar reactions of carbon‐centered radicals with vinyl fluoride and 1,1‐difluoroethylene did not yield detectable levels of the expected addition radicals. In every addition radical observed, the splittings of the β‐CH 2 protons were found to be unequal and the size of this inequivalence varied qualitatively with the bulkiness of X, Y, R 1 and R 2 . Similar measurements on monomeric addition radicals of general formula.CX(Y)CH 2 Z, where Z is achiral, generated in turn from the same monomers by adding.OH,.NH 2 and , showed no evidence for the β‐CH 2 proton splittings to be unequal. These results demonstrate the importance of an awareness of chirality effects in interpreting EPR spectra of monomeric and polymeric addition radicals of mono‐ and 1,1′‐disubstituted ethylenes.

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The paper tries to solve one of many Kabir’s mysteries - his ontological outlook. Being suspended between Hinduism and Islam, the great mystic gives in his poetry hints which can be read twice-fold. Linguistic analysis of one of his poems sets to dislose monistic and dualistic attitudes to the Absolute.
Confidence Displays and Training in Recommender Systems

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Recommender systems help users sort through vast quantities of information. Sometimes, however, users do not know if they can trust the recommendations they receive. Adding a confidence metric has the potential to improve user satisfaction and alter user behavior in a recommender system. We performed an experiment to measure the effects of a confidence display as a component of an existing collaborative filteringbased recommender system. Minimal training improved use of the confidence display compared to no training. Novice users were less likely to notice, understand, and use the confidence display than experienced users of the system. Providing training about a confidence display to experienced users greatly reduced user satisfaction in the recommender system. These results raise interesting issues and demonstrate subtle effects about how and when to train users when adding features to a system.
Realizable Unified RANS-LES and Dynamic LES Methods for Turbulent Flow Simulations

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Existing LES methods face three basic problems: a huge variety of LES models are currently applied, dynamic LES methods are either very expensive or have to be combined with ow-dependent empirical stabilization techniques, and the cost of LES for wall-bounded ow simulations are way too high for most applications. Solutions for these three problems can be developed by deriving non-dynamic, dynamic, and uni ed LES methods on the basis of a consistent stochastic theory. This approach results in a hierarchy of realizable LES models, corresponding dynamic LES methods that overcome the stability problems of existing dynamic LES methods, and uni ed RANS-LES methods that provide a reduction of LES cost by a factor of 0:07 Re, which is huge for a high Reynolds number Re. The paper explains the theoretical background of the novel dynamic and uni ed LES methods based on stochastic analysis. Applications to several ows reveal the signi cant advantages of these methods in comparison to usually applied LES methods.
Fuzzy Levy-GJR-GARCH American Option Pricing Model Based on an Infinite Pure Jump Process

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

This paper focuses mainly on issues related to the pricing of American options under a fuzzy environment by taking into account the clustering of the underlying asset price volatility, leverage effect and stochastic jumps. By treating the volatility as a parabolic fuzzy number, we constructed a Levy-GJR-GARCH model based on an infinite pure jump process and combined the model with fuzzy simulation technology to perform numerical simulations based on the least squares Monte Carlo approach and the fuzzy binomial tree method. An empirical study was performed using American put option data from the Standard & Poor's 100 index. The findings are as follows: under a fuzzy environment, the result of the option valuation is more precise than the result under a clear environment, pricing simulations of short-term options have higher precision than those of medium- and long-term options, the least squares Monte Carlo approach yields more accurate valuation than the fuzzy binomial tree method, and the simulation effects of different Levy processes indicate that the NIG and CGMY models are superior to the VG model. Moreover, the option price increases as the time to expiration of options is extended and the exercise price increases, the membership function curve is asymmetric with an inclined left tendency, and the fuzzy interval narrows as the level set α and the exponent of membership function n increase. In addition, the results demonstrate that the quasi-random number and Brownian Bridge approaches can improve the convergence speed of the least squares Monte Carlo approach.

Abstract WP425: Predictive Value Of Daily Physical Activity And New Onset Of Vascular Events In Patients With Mild Ischemic Stroke.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Daily physical inactivity is associated with a substantially increased risk of cardiovascular events. However, the target level of daily physical activity is remained unclear. We aimed to evaluate the impact of physical activity on long-term vascular events in patients with mild ischemic stroke. Methods: We designed prospective observational study and enrolled 142 ischemic stroke patients with modified Rankin Scale 0-1 (mean age: 63.9±9.2). We measured daily step count as a variable of daily physical activity after 6-month from stroke onset. Other clinical characteristics including age, body mass index, blood pressure, blood labo test, carotid echo findings and medications were also assessed. The primary outcome was hospitalization due to stroke recurrence, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, and peripheral artery disease. Survival curves were calculated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and hazard ratios for recurrence were determined by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models. Results: After 1130.2±372.8 days of follow-up, 29 vascular events (19 stroke recurrence, 10 coronary heart disease) occurred, and the patients were divided into two groups: survival (n=113) and recurrenct (n=29). Daily step counts ( P =0.003) and plaque score ( P <0.001) were significantly lower in the recurrent group than survival group. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed daily step counts and plaque score to be independent predictors of new vascular events. A daily step counts cutoff value of 6000 steps per day was determined by the analysis of receiver-operating characteristics with sensitivity 69.4% and specificity 79.4%. Kaplan-Meier survival curves after log-rank test showed significantly lower event rate in over 6000 steps group as compared to less than 6000 steps group ( P =0.023). Conclusion: In conclusion, our data indicate that daily physical activity evaluated by step counts may be useful for forecasting prognosis in patients with mild ischemic stroke. Daily step counts of 6000 steps may be a first target level to reduce new vascular events.
Movements of zoospores of Phytophthora capsici

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Electrotaxis of zoospores of Phytophthora capsici Leon. was investigated in some organic solutions employing platinum electrodes at a potential gradient of 2V/cm.In deionized water, zoospores oriented and swam to the cathode. The swimming velocity of zoospores decreased as they came up close to the cathode, moved around the electrode with turn and rotation and finally ceased the motion. A repulsion zone was quickly formed at the anode.On the contrary, in 10-2M solutions of sodium maleate, malate, malonate, succinate, glutamate, aspartate and others, zoospores were markedly attracted to and aggregated at the anode. The repulsion zone became larger with the decreased concentration of the solutes. The zone was also formed around the cathode.With some of mono-and disaccharides, zoospores were accumulated around the cathode as in deionized water regardless of the concentrations.These results would imply that all of these phenomena in the zoospore attractions toward the electrodes could not satisfactorily be explained by the theories of concentration gradient or electrostatic forces.Furthermore, no difference in electrotactic responses of zoospores among D- and L-malate and aspartate suggests that there is no direct relationship between the electrotaxis and the metabolism of zoospores.
The Search for the Optimum Individual Monetary Incentive Pay System

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

ABSTRACT This study continued the search for the optimum individual monetary incentive pay system by investigating the effects of a fiat pay system and three individual incentive pay systems (linear, positively accelerating and negatively accelerating) on worker productivity. Four experiments were conducted using a within-subject, multiple-baseline design. Experiment 1 was a systematic replication of the earlier work of Oah and Dickinson (1992) and Experiments 2, 3 and 4 were systematic replications of each other with different questions being asked about the efficacy of the three incentive pay systems. In each experiment, the subjects worked in groups, ranging in size from four to six members, and were exposed to the flat pay system and to one of the incentive pay systems while engaged in a simple production task. Subjects participated in twenty (Experiment 1 and 2) to twenty-five (Experiment 3 and 4) fifteen-minute sessions. The production task consisted of constructing “widgets” from pop beads. The primary dependent variables were the number of correctly made widgets per work session and the cost-per-widget. The four experiments produced mixed results with respect to widget productivity and cost-per-widget; however, there were two consistent findings. A systematic relationship between pay and productivity emerged in that, with all four experiments, the incentive pay systems generated higher levels of productivity than did the flat pay system. Also, the three incentive pay systems differentially affected performance levels and cost-per-widget. Across the four experiments, the negatively accelerating pay system emerged as the most reasonable option for pay system designers. This finding suggests that it is not the size of the incentive which controls performance, but rather the fact that there was a pay-for-performance contingency in place.
RETHINKING RELATIONS

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

By the 1910s, Ketchikan, Alaska emerged as a frontier cannery site and an integral part of the colonial Alaskan economy. Industrialized salmon-canning operations were dependent on the racial and gendered labour stratification of migrant Asian men and resident Native women. Alaskan history obscures narratives of Asian labour, while Asian American studies recuperates stories of union organizing without mention of Native women. In this essay I utilize Lisa Lowe's configuration of colonial intimacy to bring together discourses on Native and Asian cannery workers. The colonial archive, Alaskan history, labour history and ethnic studies highlight traces of Asian men and Native women in Alaskan canneries as negative and/or unproductive. Close readings of Tlingit author Nora Marks Dauenhauer and Filipino writer Carlos Bulosan, however, provide representations of embodied pleasure as strategies for survival or prescriptions for contestational joy within colonial industrialism.

FP9.4 Clinical Outcomes of Arthroscopic Iliopsoas Fractional Lengthening after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective Study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Purpose To investigate clinical outcomes, including patient reported outcome measures (PROMs), subjective anterior groin pain and hip flexion strength, and reoperation rates following arthroscopic iliopsoas fractional lengthening after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods Patients who were indicated for arthroscopic iliopsoas fractional lengthening after ipsilateral THA were prospectively identified between 2023-2025 at a single institution. Pre- and post-operative PROMs, including Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Tegner activity scale, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), and subjective anterior groin pain and hip flexion strength were analyzed. Reoperations at final follow-up were also evaluated. Results A total of 44 hips in 41 patients (23 females and 18 males) were included (mean age: 64.7 ± 10.2, mean BMI: 29.9 ± 5.9 kg/m2). Fifty-five percent of patients underwent surgery on their right hip. The mean postoperative follow-up timeframe was 10.0 ± 7.1 months. There was a significant improvement in postoperative PROMs compared to pre-operative levels for VAS at rest (1.3 ± 1.9 vs. 2.9 ± 2.2), VAS with use (3.1 ± 3.8 vs. 8.0 ± 1.6), Tegner activity scale (2.9 ± 1.3 vs. 2.1 ± 1.1), and SANE (74.0 ± 20.3 vs. 47.9 ± 23.4) (p&lt;0.001 for all). Over 90% of patients reported feeling much better or slightly better regarding their anterior groin pain at 2-weeks post-operatively (93%), 6 weeks post-operatively (90%), 3 months post-operatively (93%), and at final follow-up (91%). Regarding hip flexion strength, 73% reported feeling much better or slightly better at 2-weeks post-operatively, 95% at 6-weeks post-operatively, 85% at 3 months post-operatively, and 61% at final follow-up. Only 2 patients (5%) reported feeling much weaker at final follow-up. Two of 44 hips (5%) underwent reoperation at final follow-up. One patient underwent a 2-stage revision THA at 5 months postoperatively due to infection, while 1 patient underwent an open iliopsoas release with acetabular screw removal and liner exchange. Overall, the mean surgery satisfaction was 8.1 ± 2.6 on a scale of 1-10. Conclusion Patients who underwent arthroscopic iliopsoas fractional lengthening following THA demonstrated satisfactory postoperative outcomes, with over 90% reporting durably improved anterior groin pain and nearly two-thirds reporting increased hip flexor strength throughout follow-up.
Effect of Setting Condition on the Gel Properties of Surimi from Catfish (Clarias gariepinus)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Background and Objective: Differences in gelling properties may be attributed to the chemical composition and setting conditions at a particular temperature employed during the formation of surimi gels.The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and effect of setting condition on the gel properties of surimi prepared from Clarias gariepinus (local name "lele dumbo").Materials and Methods: Kamaboko gel was prepared by incubating the surimi sol at 35EC prior to heating at 90EC, while directly heated gel was prepared by heating the sol at 90EC.Data were subjected to analysis with a one-way ANOVA for comparison of means at a 5% level of significance.Results: The myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic protein contents were 16.27±0.23and 2.02±0.06mg N gG 1 surimi, respectively.About 40% of transglutaminase activity was retained in the final surimi.Kamaboko gel showed higher gel strength, hardness and springiness when compared with directly heated gel.However, it had a lower expressible moisture content.Both surimi gels showed no significant difference in the whiteness parameter.Electrophoretic patterns indicated that although myosin heavy chain may undergo polymerisation in both, kamaboko gel and directly heated gel, the extent of polymerisation may be greater in kamaboko gel. Conclusion:The two-step heating involving setting of surimi sol at 35EC prior to heating at 90EC could enhance gel properties of lele dumbo surimi.

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background- A varied plethora of videolaryngoscopes is now available in the Indian market.Various international guidelines including ASA guidelines recommend the use of videolaryngoscopy in difficult airway management.One of the recent additions to the videolaryngoscope family is the VL3 (Hugemed) videolaryngoscope. Aim- We aimed at comparing the effectiveness of VL3 videolaryngoscopy with direct laryngoscopy for routine orotracheal intubation in adults.Settings and design- This was randomized,prospective and single blind study consisting of 100 patients posted for elective surgeries under general anesthesia.Methods-A total of 100 patients were randomly divided into two groups of 50 each- group D- underwent direct laryngoscopy ; group V- underwent VL3 videolaryngoscopy.The following data was collected and analysed- first attempt intubation success,time of intubation ,time to glottis visualization,Cormack Lehane (CL) grading, and any post laryngoscopy side effects. Statistical analysis- Students t test for continuous parametric data and Chi square test for categorical non parametric data. Results- TI was successfully carried out in all patients.Time to intubation was similar in both groups.In 4 out of 50 patients VL3 gave CL grade 2 and in 1 patient it was CL grade 3 where ELP and stylet was used. No significant post laryngoscopy side effects were seen with group V vs group D. Conclusion- VL3 videolaryngoscope was shown to provide a better visualisation and safe laryngoscopy in elective patients.

Rapid and not-so-rapid responses to cognitive behavioral therapy.

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The occurrence of early changes, presumably before cognitive behavior therapy (CUT) has had a chance to take hold, is a significant finding and raises theoretical problems. In addition, however, we need to recognize and explain delayed-onset therapeutic changes. It is argued that CBT sessions commonly initiate a process that then unfolds after and between sessions—the evidence of change emerges after a delay. The need to study timing and sequencing of CBT changes is endorsed, and it is suggested that the best and quickest results will come from investigating the action of CBT on anxiety disorders.
Subband domain data conversion for time-varying filter banks

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In this paper we present an efficient method to convert subband domain data produced by different maximally decimated time-varying filter banks (TVFB).Using polyphase approach to TVFB we advantageously replace the conventional cascade process consisting of an L-channel synthesis TVFB followed by an M-channel analysis TVFB (M ne L) and propose a single multi-input multi-output conversion system allowing algorithmic delay control and high degree of parallelism for implementation. Moreover we show how the proposed system can be applied to particular cases of time-varying modulated lapped transforms (TV-MLT) and QMF representations for audio transcoding applications.
