A Microscopic Heterogeneous Traffic Flow Model Considering Distance Headway

The intelligent driver (ID) model characterizes traffic behavior with a constant acceleration exponent and does not follow traffic physics. This results in unrealistic traffic behavior. In this paper, a new microscopic heterogeneous traffic flow model is proposed which improves the performance of the ID model. The forward and lateral distance headways are used to characterize traffic behavior. The stability of the ID and proposed models is examined over a 1000 m circular road with a traffic disturbance after 30 s. The results obtained show that the proposed model is more stable than the ID model. The performance of the proposed and ID models is evaluated over an 1800 m circular road for 150 s with a platoon of 51 vehicles. Results are presented which indicate that traffic evolves realistically with the proposed model. This is because it is based on the lateral distance headway.

3D CNN for Oxygen Extraction Fraction Mapping with combined QSM and qBOLD

We developed a CNN for OEF mapping from QSM+qBOLD data, which utilizes utilizes 3D convolutional layers. Two dimensions for the spatial components of an image and one dimension for the temporal component in the qBOLD data. The results are an improvement over our previous 2D CNN, but even the more advanced network architecture struggles with voxels, that have a very low deoxyhemoglobin content. In this abstract we also study with simulated data when the CNN produces reliable results and when it predicts default values for the reconstructed parameters instead.

Chromatin Structure and Expression of a Gene Transcribed by RNA Polymerase III Are Independent of H2A.Z Deposition

The genes transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol III) generally have intragenic promoter elements. One of them, the yeast U6 snRNA (SNR6) gene is activated in vitro by a positioned nucleosome between its intragenic box A and extragenic, downstream box B separated by approximately 200 bp. We demonstrate here that the in vivo chromatin structure of the gene region is characterized by the presence of an array of positioned nucleosomes, with only one of them in the 5' end of the gene having a regulatory role. A positioned nucleosome present between boxes A and B in vivo does not move when the gene is repressed due to nutritional deprivation. In contrast, the upstream nucleosome which covers the TATA box under repressed conditions is shifted approximately 50 bp further upstream by the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler RSC upon activation. It is marked with the histone variant H2A.Z and H4K16 acetylation in active state. In the absence of H2A.Z, the chromatin structure of the gene does not change, suggesting that H2A.Z is not required for establishing the active chromatin structure. These results show that the chromatin structure directly participates in regulation of a Pol III-transcribed gene under different states of its activity in vivo.

Cyclodextrin‐Based Formulations: A Non‐Invasive Platform for Targeted Drug Delivery

Abstract Cyclodextrins ( CD s) are recognized as promising pharmaceutical excipients due to their unique ability to form water‐soluble inclusion complexes with various poorly soluble compounds. The numerous investigations on CD s and their use in nanomedicine have received considerable attention in the last three decades, leading to the rapid development of new CD ‐containing formulations that significantly facilitate targeted drug delivery and controlled drug release, with consequent improvements in drug bioavailability. This MiniReview highlights the efficacy and recent uses of CD s for non‐invasive drug delivery. Using ophthalmic and nasal drug delivery as examples, an overview of chemical properties, mechanisms of CD s on drug solubilization, stabilization and permeation, along with their toxicological profiles relevant to nasal and ocular administration, are provided and discussed. The recent development and application of CD ‐based nanocarrier systems for targeted drug delivery are summarized.

Productivity spillovers from foreign direct investment in Poland

Using firm level data from the Polish manufacturing sector, we examine the effect of foreign direct investment on the scope of productivity growth of locally-owned firms. The results suggest that a higher foreign presence within an industry affects local firms negatively. However, the effects differ between groups of firms and gorups of industries. FDI has a negative impact on the performance of the most productive local firms in high competition industries. By contrast, the effect on the least productive state firms in low competition industries is positive. For the domestic industry as a whole (local and foreign firms together), a higher foreign presence has a positive impact on performance as foreign firms are on average more productive than local ones.

The mouse Na<sup>+</sup>-K<sup>+</sup>-ATPase γ-subunit gene (<i>Fxyd2</i>) encodes three developmentally regulated transcripts

The Na + -K + -ATPase is understood to function as a hetero-oligomer of α- and β-subunits, but a third subunit, γ, has been proposed to influence the enzyme’s catalytic function. Recently, two variants of the γ-subunit have been described in kidney, raising the possibility of multiple γ-subunits with diverse functions. We now report the cloning and sequencing of the mouse γ-subunit gene ( Fxyd2). Analysis of the structure of the gene shows that it encodes three mRNAs that have distinct NH 2 -terminal (extracellular) encoding sequences but common transmembrane and COOH-terminal-encoding sequences resulting from differential splicing and, probably, alternate promoter usage. The three mRNAs have tissue-specific expression patterns. The existence of three different extracellular domains of the γ-variants and how they may interact with the sodium pump to alter its cation transport properties must now be taken into account for future understanding of the modulation of the Na + -K + -ATPase by its γ-subunit.

The CEC Emission Phantom for PET and SPECT

The CEC Emission Phantom was defined by a task group within the PET instrumentation programme of the CEC Concerted Action on ‘PET Investigation of Cellular Regeneration and Degeneration’. It is based on a design, developed for SPECT at the Medical University Hannover, nine years ago. The basis philosophy of this phantom is to simulate realistic measuring conditions, as found under routine clinical work, as closely as possible. This implies a thorough consideration of attenuation and Compton scattering within the patient, which considerably influence the performance of PET and SPECT instruments. The measurements described in this work show that the exclusive evaluation with test methods yielding intrinsic performance parameters only, is insufficient as well as dangerous. A concise description of the phantom is given and some examples illustrate the necessity of such realistic phantoms, by demonstrating the influence of attenuation on the reconstructed image in SPECT.

Understanding Social Advocacy through the Views of Mental Health Practitioners:Practical Issues Related to Social Advocacy in Small Communities.

Social justice is a concept that ethicists and philosophers have debated for thousands of years. On a more practical level, mental health advocates and practitioners work with clients who often face social injustices. Consequently, it is not surprising that there appears to be a growing awareness among mental health practitioners of the inequalities and disparities experienced by various groups. Within the past decade, counseling psychologists have made calls to action that have emphasized the importance of social advocacy in the practice of counseling psychologists (Ivey & Collins, 2003). Although the professional literature related to social justice has become more prominent, there has been little discussion of the practical issues associated with social advocacy (Toporek & Williams, 2006). However, clearly, adding new roles will result in new considerations for counseling psychologists, regardless of where they practice. 

The need to be attuned to how the practical aspects of advocacy intersect with the context of psychological work may be especially present in small communities where practitioners may be more involved in the community and thus their actions highly visible (Schank & Skovholt, 2006). Because small communities may have few resources, a limited number of mental health professionals, and higher rates of mental illness, as well as face other challenges, psychologists practicing in small communities may feel compelled to engage in advocacy. Yet, there is little practical guidance for these psychologists. 

Therefore, given the sparse research present related to social advocacy in small communities, I designed a qualitative study using the grounded theory approach (Strauss & Corbin, 1998) to gather data that will allow interested parties to better understand the decision making process used by practitioners in rural communities when they decide whether to engage in social advocacy. Eight mental health practitioners who live and provide services in rural communities were interviewed. From the interviews, I identified 26 themes that existed among rural practitioners regarding the positive aspects and challenges of rural practice and practical issues associated with social justice advocacy in rural communities. The implications of the research for rural practitioners who wish to become involved in advocacy are discussed.

Enabling Cold-Formed Steel System Design through New AISI Standards

The objective of this paper is to introduce several new and updated AISI standards for cold-formed steel structural design and explain how these standards provide an evolution for cold-formed steel towards the design of systems instead of isolated members and connections. Cold-formed steel members are used in a wide variety of applications and the historical approach of the AISI standards was primarily to support the design of individual members and steel-to-steel connections. However, as the use of cold-formed steel has expanded and matured it is now possible in several cases to reliably define cold-formed steel systems that are in common use. To support these systems, cold-formed steel framing, metal building secondary systems, steel diaphragm systems, etc. AISI standards now provide system specific design specifications and test standards. The evolution of these standards and the latest versions are explained herein. The focus of the discussion is on why the standards are provided, and how they aim to enable the cold-formed steel engineer, rather than on the specifics of each new edition of the standard. The base standard for all the system specific efforts: AISI S100 is also being reorganized and updated to accommodate new research and this new evolution in cold-formed steel system design. Significant work remains to fully develop cold-formed steel system design and evolve it further towards performance-based standards, but the new suite of AISI standards provides a robust foundation for this effort.

Comparison of Experimental and Computationally Predicted Sulfoxide Bond Dissociation Enthalpies

The accurate estimation of S-O bond dissociation enthalpies (BDE) of sulfoxides by computational chemistry methods has been a significant challenge. One of the primary causes for this challenge is the well-established requirement of including high-exponent d functions in the sulfur basis set for accurate energies. Unfortunately, even when high-exponent d functions were included in Pople-style basis sets, the relative strength of experimentally determined S-O BDE was incorrectly predicted. The aug-cc-pV(n+d)Z basis sets developed by Dunning include an additional high-exponent d function on sulfur. Thus, it was expected that the aug-cc-pV(n+d)Z basis sets would improve the prediction of sulfoxide S-O BDE. This study presents the S-O BDE predicted by B3LYP, CCSD, CCSD(T), M05-2X, M06-2X, and MP2 combined with aug-cc-pV(n+d)Z, aug-cc-pVnZ, and Pople-style basis sets. The accuracy of these predictions was determined by comparing the computationally predicted values to the experimentally determined S-O BDE. Values within experimental error were obtained for dialkyl sulfoxides when the S-O BDEs were estimated using an isodesmic oxygen transfer reaction at the M06-2X/aug-cc-pV(T+d)Z level of theory. However, the S-O BDE of divinyl sulfoxide was overestimated by this method.
