How the Creature became a Monster: A feminist reading of Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein'
Year: 2017

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley was written in the beginning of the 19th century and became in the 20th century one of the most investigated novel within the feminist literary critic. I have investigated Frankenstein from a feminist angle, especially French feminist literature theory, to explore what it is that causes the monstrous elements of the story. I argue that the monstrosity of the novel is above all a lack of engagement with female values, which here are identified the domestic, care taking and relationships. Thereby, the novel also in a subtle way criticizes 19th century ideals of gender and its rigid division between male and female occupations. The ideal in is Frankenstein is presented as having a balance between values represented as masculine and feminine. The feminine domestic sphere plays an important part in this balancing as it entails cooperation, shared experience and mutual decisions.
Development of On board Passenger Information Display
Year: 2015

Kiaki Matsumoto Koji Nakada Kazuya Azuma Hiroshi Hatakeyama Tatsuya Tokunaga Kazunori Takahashi OVERVIEW: Advances in ICT and display panels in recent years have led to on board passenger information displays becoming commonplace on commuter trains. Hitachi commenced serious development in 2006 with the development of an on board passenger information display based on the concept of experience design from a user's perspective and achieving a high level of equipment utilization by adopting the autonomous decentralized architecture that was already being used for our traffic management systems. This involved performing information design (visibility and intelligibility) for the passenger information display to suit the diverse variety of people who ride on commuter trains. Hitachi adopted open system interfaces and software to implement the functions of a total system (including both onboard and wayside systems) that would be able to grow over time without becoming obsolete.

Isolation, purification and initial RNA sequence analysis of seminal fluid exosomes between pregnant and non pregnant intrauterine insemination pregnancies
Year: 2020

To compare the RNA content in exosomes purified from seminal fluid associated with intrauterine insemination (IUI) pregnancies with known pregnancy status.  Retrospective analysis of exosome RNA from seminal fluid from patients undergoing IUI and pregnancy outcomes.  Seminal fluid was collected following semen washing for IUI. Exosomes were isolated and purified by hydrophobic interaction chromatography using a polyester, capillary channeled polymer phase. Exosome purification was verified by TEM. Small RNAs were isolated from purified exosomes and libraries prepared. Following Illumina NextSeq500 library sequencing, sequences were aligned to the human genome, RNA copy numbers determined, and profiled based on type (i.e. miRNA, lincRNA, RefSeq, exons) RNA copy numbers were compared by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Students' t test.  Exosomes were successfully purified from seminal fluid samples using hydrophobic interaction chromatography and confirmed with TEM. ANOVA revealed a significant difference (P  This study provides further evidence that exosomes are present in seminal fluid and the RNA content is different in those that successfully enabled a pregnancy versus those that did not. Identifying the molecules within seminal fluid provides a snapshot into the males' spermatogenesis past. Specific proteins must be expressed at the correct level, time and location for spermatogenetic processes to precisely occur. Therefore, any pathway disruption may render spermatozoa as unsuitable for fertilization. Further analysis of specific gene expression differences between the two groups may reveal signaling pathways associated with positive or negative pregnancy outcomes. Disclosures Nothing to disclose.

Robust MR image super resolution reconstruction with cross modal edge preserving regularization
Venue: Int. J. Imaging Syst. Technol.
Year: 2019

In this article, we propose a novel image super resolution (SR) reconstruction method in the field of magnetic resonance imaging, which is based on a cross modal edge preserving regularization integrating the internal gradient prior from the target modal image itself and the external gradient prior from the reference modal image obtained by pre scan in many medical imaging scenes. The reference modal image is a high resolution guidance image that has much shareable information such as gradient orientation on edge regions, which can be used to improve the image resolution of the target modal. In addition, to be robust against the misalignment between the target modal image and reference modal image, a multimodal registration is incorporated in the SR reconstruction process. In this work, the proposed SR method can be formulated as an alternating optimization problem, that is, the target modal and reference modal images are alternately updated through iterations. Experimental results on simulated and realistic images show the superior performance of the proposed approach over several state of the art SR techniques.
Psychopathic Men: Deficits in General Mental Ability, Not Emotion Perception
Venue: Journal of abnormal psychology
Year: 2018

Psychopathy is characteristically associated with deficits in emotion perception; however, findings surrounding this deficit are actually quite mixed. This is most likely due to limitations of study methodology, including the use of tasks with unknown or poor psychometric properties, underpowered samples, and a lack of control for third variables. We present a study that addressed these limitations. A sample of men (n 339) ranging across the psychopathy continuum, recruited in and out of the German prison system, completed three psychometrically validated tasks that assessed the ability to perceive facially expressed emotions. Using latent variable modeling, we show that deficits in emotion perception ability associated with psychopathy are fully attributable to deficits in general mental ability. Modeling relations at the manifest level, separately for inmates and noninmates, support these conclusions. We conclude that emotion general and emotion specific deficits associated with psychopathy have been exaggerated and instead indicate deficits in general mental ability.
The Longitudinal and Bidirectional Relationships Between Cooperative Coparenting and Child Behavioral Problems in Low Income, Unmarried Families
Venue: Journal of family psychology JFP journal of the Division of Family Psychology of the American Psychological Association
Year: 2019

The coparenting subsystem is important for the psychosocial development of young children. In this article, we used cross lagged structural equation modeling to assess the bidirectional relations between unmarried parents' cooperative coparenting and their children's behavioral problems. Using a subsample of 788 dyads of poor, unmarried parents and their children from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing data, we examined trends in coparenting and behavioral problems over time (in children ages 1, 3, 5, and 9 years) and the reciprocal effects between these 2 variables. All pathways from coparenting at 1 time point to the children's behavioral problems at the following time point were significant, indicating that cooperative coparenting at earlier time points is likely to result in fewer behavioral problems in children at later time points. A cross lagged path from behavioral problems to coparenting in the preschool years was also statistically significant. Implications for interventions and next steps for further research are discussed.
Cyber Physical IoT Device Management Using a Lightweight Agent
Venue: 2019 International Conference on Internet of Things (iThings) and IEEE Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom) and IEEE Cyber, Physical and Social Computing (CPSCom) and IEEE Smart Data (SmartData)
Year: 2019

Increasingly IoT enabled infrastructure such as smart cities, energy delivery systems, communication networks, manufacturing plants and transportation systems are unable to manage devices with various makes, models, configurations and applications. Considering the fragility of these industrial IoT devices and their cyber physical nature, it is important not to impede on their limited memory and processing power. Existing solutions for IoT device management such as IoT platforms and hardware solutions have considerable downsides. We propose an agent based mechanism to control and manage diverse IoT devices that has limited impact on device operations. Our agent is tested in the context of delivering security updates to IoT devices and demonstrates the efficiency of the agent based management architecture.
Tissue Engineering and Human Regenerative Therapies in Space: Benefits for Earth and Opportunities for Long Term Extra Terrestrial Exploration
Year: 2019

On Earth gravity is constant and although the precise value depends upon location, the standard value of acceleration due to gravity is 9.81ms 2. This is referred to as 1g. In space astronauts experience microgravity (mG) of approximately 1x10 6ms 2 and on the International Space Station (ISS) astronauts float in space as they are in free fall because for any spacecraft to stay in Earth orbit, it must move at almost exactly the right speed so that the curve of downward acceleration matches the curvature of the Earth. This means that the ISS is an ideal laboratory  for studying the effects of mG on living systems to investigate growth and development at both the cellular level, in cell co culture and in complex cellular systems where scaffolds may be required to build architecture and shape that is unconstrained by gravity as is the case in an Earth bound laboratory. The deleterious effects of living and working in mG on astronaut physiology and psychology have been extensively reviewed [2 9] As of May 21st 2019, 571 people have travelled into space [10] spending from Alan Shepherd's 15min flight on board Freedom 7 in 1961 to Valerei Polyakov's 437d 18h flight on the Mir space station in 1995. The length of time that astronauts have lived in mG has varied widely and it is principally since the launch of the ISS, that long duration missions (LDMs) of >3mo have become the norm.
Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Their Application in Karst Rocky Desertification Control
Year: 2012

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF) are a sort of microbe which could form mutualistic symbionts with most of the terrestrial plant roots.Recently,the mycorrhizal symbiosis system dominated by AMF has been a new subject of bioremediation,which could significantly enhance the success rates and shorten the cycle in the restore process of degraded ecosystem,and ensure the stability of restored result.Karst rocky desertification is a critical environmental problem which could restrict the sustainable development of karst regions in Southwest China.The characteristic eco physiological functions of AMF have good corresponding relations with the urgent obstacles in karst rocky desertification control,which makes AMF possess important potential application value in this restore process.The paper summarized the eco physiological functions of AMF and discussed the availability and application way of AMF in karst rocky desertification control.This study aims at studying the adaptation measure of karst plants and laying a theoretical basis for karst ecosystem degradation and restoration,and finally finding a new effective practical way for karst rocky desertification control and sustainable development of ecological economy.

Implementing health technology assessment in Ghana to support universal health coverage: building relationships that focus on people, policy, and process
Venue: International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care
Year: 2019

Ghana is one of the few African countries to enact legislation and earmark significant funding to establish universal health coverage (UHC) through the National Health Insurance Scheme, although donor funds have declined recently. Given a disproportionate level of spending on medicines, health technology assessment (HTA) can support resource allocation decisions in the face of highly constrained budgets, as commonly found in low resource settings. The Ghanaian Ministry of Health, supported by the International Decision Support Initiative (iDSI) initiated a HTA study in 2016 to examine the cost effectiveness of antihypertensive medicines. We aimed to summarize key insights from this work that highlights success factors beyond producing purely technical outputs. These include the need for capacity building, academic collaboration, and ongoing partnerships with a broad range of experts and stakeholders. By building on this HTA study, and with ongoing interactions with iDSI, HTAi, WHO, and others, Ghana will be well positioned to institutionalize HTA in resource allocation decisions and support progress toward UHC.

Time Series Clustering in R Using the dtwclust Package
Venue: R J.
Year: 2019

Most clustering strategies have not changed considerably since their initial definition. The common improvements are either related to the distance measure used to assess dissimilarity, or the function used to calculate prototypes. Time series clustering is no exception, with the Dynamic Time Warping distance being particularly popular in that context. This distance is computationally expensive, so many related optimizations have been developed over the years. Since no single clustering algorithm can be said to perform best on all datasets, different strategies must be tested and compared, so a common infrastructure can be advantageous. In this manuscript, a general overview of shape based time series clustering is given, including many specifics related to Dynamic Time Warping and associated techniques. At the same time, a description of the dtwclust package for the R statistical software is provided, showcasing how it can be used to evaluate many different time series clustering procedures.
Development and Evaluation of a Web Based Paediatric Drug Information System for Germany
Venue: Pharmacy
Year: 2021

Off label use is frequent in paediatrics but that does not necessarily mean that the risk benefit ratio is negative. Nevertheless, evidence based data is essential for safe drug therapy. In Germany, there is no publicly available compendium providing transparent, evidence based information for paediatric pharmacotherapy to date. This work describes the development of a web based paediatric drug information system (PDIS) for Germany and its evaluation by health care professionals (HCP)  Since 2012, a PDIS is being developed by the authors and is supported by the Federal Ministry of Health since 2016. Dosing recommendations were established based on systematic literature reviews and subsequent evaluation by clinical experts. The prototype was evaluated by HCP. Based on the results, the further development was concluded.  92% of HCP believed that the PDIS could improve the quality of prescribing, as currently available information is deficient. Besides the license and formulations, dosing recommendations were the most relevant modules. A dosage calculator was the most wanted improvement. To facilitate sustainability of future development, a collaboration with the Dutch Kinderformularium was established. As of 2021, the database will be available to German HCP.  The fundamentals for a German PDIS were established, and vital steps were taken towards successful continuation.
The simulation and analysis of pedestrian crowd and behavior
Year: 2009

Pedestrian crowd in public buildings is usually a hidden trouble. The more serious the crowd, the higher the accident risk, and the heavier the casualties and loss may be. Based on the social force model, this paper puts forward an improved model which takes into account the anisotropic characteristic of pedestrian movement and the avoidance of dynamic congested areas. Furthermore, the algorithm has been optimized with the help of static force grid, so the simulation becomes more veritable and computational speed is also greatly accelerated. The improved model is also applied to research on the characters of pedestrian crowd, and the conclusion can provide a basis for the risk assessment of pedestrian crowd and the design of public buildings.

Chemical Forces, Structure, and Gelation Properties of Sweet Potato Protein as Affected by pH and High Hydrostatic Pressure
Venue: Food and Bioprocess Technology
Year: 2018

Sweet potato is one of cheap sources for starch industries worldwide, and exploiting starch wastewater as an alternative protein source is mainly environmental and economic concerns. In this study, the effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP; 250, 400, and 550 MPa) on chemical forces, structure, and gelation properties of sweet potato protein (SPP) at pH 3.0, 6.0, and 9.0 were investigated. The values of surface hydrophobicity (Ho) and absolute value of zeta potential of SPP significantly increased from 250 to 550 MPa (p 0.05) at all three pH conditions. The total amount of sulfhydryl SH groups in SPP decreased after HHP at pH 9.0, whereas the amount of free SH increased. High molecular mass aggregates 180 kDa) were observed in SPP after HHP at pH 6.0 and 9.0 by SDS PAGE. Regarding elastic rheological behaviors, storage modulus (G' values of SPP were significantly strengthened after HHP treatment. In addition, textural properties and water holding capacity of gels made from SPP after 250 and 400 MPa at pH 9.0 were significantly improved, and the gels showed a compact and uniform gel network with the contribution of immobilized water fractions. The gel properties exhibited by SPP after HHP treatment at different pH levels, in particular after 400 MPa at pH 9.0, suggested that it could be potential protein resources as new gelling reagent in the food system.
Genetic correlations of polygenic disease traits: from theory to practice
Venue: Nature Reviews Genetics
Year: 2019

The genetic correlation describes the genetic relationship between two traits and can contribute to a better understanding of the shared biological pathways and/or the causality relationships between them. The rarity of large family cohorts with recorded instances of two traits, particularly disease traits, has made it difficult to estimate genetic correlations using traditional epidemiological approaches. However, advances in genomic methodologies, such as genome wide association studies, and widespread sharing of data now allow genetic correlations to be estimated for virtually any trait pair. Here, we review the definition, estimation, interpretation and uses of genetic correlations, with a focus on applications to human disease.In this Review, van Rheenen et al. outline how improved methodologies have enabled genetic correlations to be estimated for almost any trait pair. Genetic correlations can improve our understanding of the shared biology and causal relationships between traits.
