Abstract:
Abstract This study aims to discover the impact of composting and pyrolysis on the adsorption performance of Auricularia auricula dreg (AAD) for Cd(II) in aqueous solution. Auricularia auricula dreg (AAD), Auricularia auricula dreg biochar (AADB) and Auricularia auricula dreg compost (AADC) were used to remove Cd(II) from aqueous solution, and their adsorption conditions and mechanisms were compared. The adsorption quantity of three adsorbents reached the maximum (AAD: 80.0 mg/g, AADB: 91.7 mg/g, AADC: 93.5 mg/g) under same conditions (adsorbent dosage of 1 g/L, pH 5.0, biosorption temperature of 25 °C, and biosorption time of 120 min). All Cd(II) biosorption processes onto three adsorbents complied with the Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation, and spontaneously occurred in an order of AADC > AADB > AAD. The difference in biosorption quantity relied on variation in surface structure, crystal species and element content caused by composting or pyrolysis. Composting enhanced the changes in surface structure, crystal species, functional groups and ion exchange capacity of the AAD, resulting in AAD had greatly improved the biosorption quantity of Cd(II). Pyrolysis increased the adsorption of Cd(II) mainly by increasing the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area, the particle size and pH, in the same time, providing more oxygen-containing functional groups.

Abstract:
Abstract Saccharomyces cerevisiae has seven genes encoding proteins with a high degree (>85%) of amino-acid sequence identity to the aryl-alcohol dehydrogenase of the lignin-degrading, filamentous fungus, Phanerochaete chrysosporium. All but one member of this gene set are telomere associated. Moreover, all contain a sequence similar to the DNA-binding site of the Yap1p transcriptional activator either upstream of or within their coding sequences. The expression of the AAD genes was found to be induced by chemicals, such as diamide and diethyl maleic acid ester (DEME), that cause an oxidative shock by inactivating the glutathione (GSH) reservoir of the cells. In contrast, the oxidizing agent hydrogen peroxide has no effect on the expression of these genes. We found that the response to anti-GSH agents was Yap1p dependent. The very high level of nucleotide sequence similarity between the AAD genes makes it difficult to determine if they are all involved in the oxidative-stress response. The use of single and multiple aad deletants demonstrated that only AAD4 (YDL243c) and AAD6 (YFL056/57c) respond to the oxidative stress. Of these two genes, only AAD4 is likely to be functional since the YFL056/57c open reading frame is interrupted by a stop codon. Thus, in terms of the function in response to oxidative stress, the sevenfold redundancy of the AAD gene set is more apparent than real.

Abstract. By analyzing the logarithmic relationship between geomagnetic activity as represented by the annual aa index and solar magnetic field activity as represented by the annual sunspot number (Rz) during the period 1844–2010, aa is shown to lie in between two lines defined solely by Rz. Two ways can be used to decompose the aa index into two components. One is decomposing aa into the sum of the baseline (aab) and the remainder (aau) with a null correlation. Another is dividing the top-line (aat) into the sum of aa and the remainder (aad) with a null correlation. The first decomposition is similar to the traditional one. The second decomposition implies a nonlinear relationship of aa with Rz (aat) and a decay process (aad). Therefore, aat=aa+aad=aab+aau+aad: (i) aat is related to the solar energy potential of generating geomagnetic activity (associated with Rz); (ii) aab is related to transient phenomena; (iii) aau is related to recurrent phenomena; and (iv) aad is related to the energy loss in the transmission from solar surface to the magnetosphere and ionosphere that failed to generate geomagnetic activity.

Abstract:
Background. Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) share common risk factors. Objectives. To assess the abdominal aortic diameter (AAD) among patients with ACS using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Methods. Patients with ACS admitted to our intensive cardiac care unit from December 2013 to June 2014 were screened prospectively for AAA via AAD measurement in the subcostal TTE view. AAA was defined as an aneurysm with a transverse diameter of ≥30 mm. Results. Sixty seven patients were included. The male-to-female sex ratio was 7 : 1. The vast majority of patients were admitted due to STEMI (73%), and the rest were equally divided as NSTEMI and unstable angina. The mean patient age was 58.4 ± 10.4 years. AAD measurements were feasible in 57 patients (85%); among them, AAA was diagnosed in six patients (10.5%). The average additional time required to measure the abdominal aorta was 4 ± 1 min. All patients with AAA were men and had a higher prevalence of smoking (83.3% vs. 60.6%, p<0.003) and a lower incidence of diabetes mellitus than those without aneurysm. The prevalence of AAA tended to be related to age (12.5% in those older than 60 years and 18.7% in those older than 65 years). Conclusions. The overall prevalence of AAA is significantly high among patients with ACS and increases with age. AAA screening as a part of routine cardiac TTE can be easily, rapidly, and feasibly performed and yield accurate findings. AAD measurement in the subcostal view should be implemented as a part of routine TTE in patients with ACS.

Abstract:
Objective. To evaluate the strategy in the management of patients with synchronous gastrointestinal tumor and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) or abdominal aortic dissection (AAD) undergoing endovascular repair followed by tumor resection. Materials and Methods. Five patients with synchronous gastrointestinal tumor and AAA or AAD were treated by endovascular repair followed by tumor resection. Clinical data were retrospectively analyzed with respect to the management strategy, safety, and outcome. Results. Endovascular repair was technically successful in all patients. All the stents were well positioned and well patent, and the AAA (n=3) or AAD (n=2) were correctly excluded without endoleaks. After endovascular repair, all patients underwent resection of gastrointestinal tumor. No late mortality or major complications related to the two procedures were observed in the subsequent follow-up. Conclusion. Our results demonstrate that EVAR could significantly shorten the delay between AAA and gastrointestinal procedure with an excellent postoperative outcome. If the anatomical criteria are satisfied, EVAR followed by tumor resection might be an effective treatment for concomitant AAA and gastrointestinal tumor.

Abstract:
Abstract. Spatiotemporal distributions of dissolved acrylic acid (AAd) and related biogenic sulfur compounds including dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dissolved and total dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSPd and DMSPt) were investigated in the Bohai Sea (BS) and Yellow Sea (YS) during summer and winter. AAd and DMS production from DMSPd degradation and AAd degradation were analyzed. Significant seasonal variations in AAd and DMS(P) were observed. AAd exhibited similar distributions during summer and winter; i.e., relatively high values of AAd occurred in the BS and the northern YS, and the concentrations decreased from inshore to offshore areas in the southern YS. Due to strong biological production from DMSP and abundant terrestrial inputs from rivers in summer, the AAd concentrations in the surface seawater during summer (30.01 nmol L−1) were significantly higher than those during winter (14.98 nmol L−1). The average concentration sequence along the transects during summer (AAd > DMSPt > DMS > DMSPd) showed that particulate DMSP (DMSPp) acted as a DMS producer and that terrestrial sources of AAd were present; in contrast, the sequence in winter was AAd > DMSPt > DMSPd > DMS. High values of AAd and DMS(P) were mostly observed in the upper layers, with occasional high values at the bottom. High AAd concentrations in the porewater, which could be transported to the bottom water, might result from the cleavage of intracellular DMSP and reduce bacterial metabolism in sediments. In addition, the production and degradation rates of biogenic sulfur compounds were significantly higher in summer than in winter, and the removal of AAd was primarily attributed to microbial consumption. Other sources of AAd existed aside from the production from DMSPd.

Abstract:

Syftet med denna rapport är att undersöka hur After Action Debriefing (AAD) fungerar på polismyndigheten i Södermanlands län. Rapporten har sin utgångspunkt i åsikter från anställda poliser i distriktet i Eskilstuna angående frågor om debriefing. Rapporten fokuserar också på åsikter från ansvarig debriefingledare om debriefingens funktion och slutligen vad lagen (Arbetsmiljöverkets kungörelse) säger om rätten till debriefing. Tillvägagångssätt för insamling av data har skett genom enkäter, intervju samt litteraturstudier. Polisyrket är ett krävande yrke på många sätt, och risken för att utsättas för jobbiga händelser är stor. Då man utsatts för kriser, trauman och jobbiga händelser kan det både vara omstörtande och psykiskt påfrestande. Varje individ påverkas olika av situationer man har utsatts för. Det viktigaste av allt är att det finns professionell hjälp att få på myndigheten för att kunna hantera efterföljande beteende på bästa sätt samt minska risken för psykiska problem. Det finns ett stort behov hos de anställda poliserna till utökad debriefing, men att det finns för lite resurser och motivation till att utveckla det. Vi poliser kommer i allt råare situationer då samhället går mot en mycket hård utveckling. Vi är trots allt vanliga människor som inte tål vad eller hur mycket som helst, det vi möter idag är en tuff verklighet som jag tror kommer att bli allt svårare att hantera och till vår hjälp behövs debriefing.

Full text
Abstract:
On définit le risque de contrepartie comme le risque de détérioration de la qualité de crédit entrainant une incapacité de la contrepartie à remplir ses obligations contractuelles. De nos jours, ce risque ne se limite plus aux entreprises, mais s'est également étendu aux banques et autres institutions financières. Par conséquent, toute entité participant aux marchés dérivés OTC est exposée à ce risque. La «Credit Value Adjustment» (CVA) est la valeur de marché du risque de contrepartie. En raison de sa complexité, la mise en œuvre de la CVA demeure l'un des plus grands défis auxquels les banques font face depuis la dernière crise. Pour la plupart d’entre elles, sa mise en production nécessite des changements majeurs de l’infrastructure actuelle. En outre, le régulateur, dont le but est de renforcer la stabilité des marchés financiers, s’est également intéressé à la CVA en introduisant une nouvelle charge en capital liée au risque de contrepartie. Les contributions de notre thèse à la littérature existante sur le sujet se trouvent essentiellement aux chapitres 2, 3 et 4 du manuscrit. Dans les chapitres 2 et 3, nous proposons deux méthodes innovatrices pour le calcul de la CVA. Le chapitre 4 est, quant à lui, entièrement dédié à l’étude de la charge en capital réglementaire sous la régulation FRTB-CVA
Counterparty risk is defined as the risk of credit worthiness deterioration, making the counterparty unable to meet its contractual obligations. Nowadays, this risk is no longer confined to corporate clients but has spread out to other banks and financial institutions. As a consequence, any firm participating in the over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives market is exposed to this risk. Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) is the market value of counterparty credit risk. Implementation of CVA still remains one of the biggest challenges banks face since the last financial crisis, due to its complexity and cost of implementation. For most banks, pricing the whole CVA book requires major changes on the infrastructure they currently have. Furthermore, regulatory responses to the last financial turmoil aimed at strengthening the financial system by introducing new capital requirements. The Basel III regulatory standard was developed in this respect, prescribing an additional capital charge to cover CVA losses.Our contributions to the relevant literature are chapters 2, 3 and 4. In chapters 2 and 3, we propose two innovative approaches to compute CVA that allow a huge reduction in computational costs. Chapter 4 is devoted to the study of the CVA capital charge under the new FRTB-CVA regulation

Abstract:
Recent studies suggest that lymphocyte apoptosis serves to regulate pulmonary inflammation. Equine COPD, an allergic disease of the lower airway, is likely due to dysregulation of the pulmonary immune response. In this study, the hypothesis tested was COPD affected horses would have less apoptotic airway lymphocytes than control horses during clinical disease. To achieve this, 3 methods of measuring apoptosis, Vindelov's propidium iodide with Triton-X (PI/Triton-X), 7-aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD), and Annexin V with propidium iodide (Annexin/PI) were evaluated in equine airway lymphocytes. A significant linear relationship was found for equine bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) lymphocytes stained with 7-AAD and Annexin/PI . No relationship was identified with cells stained with PI/Triton-X and Annexin/PI, and 7-AAD and PI/Triton-X indicating that methods which preserve cell membrane characteristics are more comparable when measuring BAL lymphocytes apoptosis in a heterogeneous population of cells. Additionally, all stains appear to perform the same in COPD and normal horses in remission and disease. Comparison of predominately BAL lymphocyte apoptosis using the above methods were performed at baseline, after natural challenge, and after dexamethasone administration in nine horses, five of which were affected with COPD. No differences in bronchoalveolar lavage lymphocyte apoptosis between COPD and control horses were detected either before or after dexamethasone administration, although numerical trends in COPD horses identified less apoptosis after natural challenge indicating that defective apoptosis may play a role in equine COPD pathogenesis. Dexamethasone administration was associated with trends of improvement in the pulmonary gas exchange and increased apoptosis toward baseline in the COPD horses.

Abstract:
Most advertising research has focussed at examining effects of advertising on attitudinal responses or brand preference and choice. However, in a natural environment, the time period between advertising exposure and purchase decision is filled with prepurchase search. Prepurchase external search refers to information search from sources other than memory, prior to making a purchase decision. Usually consumers access only a small subset of available information and base their choice decisions on it. Prepurchase search therefore acts as a filter and, the final choice depends critically on the small subset of potential inputs the consumer notes in the environment and integrates into the decision. Previous research has identified a variety of factors that affect consumers' prepurchase search behavior. However, there is little understanding of how specific advertisements designed by marketers impact consumers' prepurchase search. A marketer would like consumers to search information that reflects favorably on his/her brand. Hence, s/he would attempt to influence the brands and attributes on which consumers seek information prior to making a choice. The dissertation investigates the process by which a particular marketer's advertising influences consumers' search on available brands, i.e., the marketer's brand and other competing brands. The dissertation considers a situation where exposure to advertising occurs prior to seeking information from any other source. Hence, the impact of advertising on subsequent search behavior is the topic of interest. The dissertation develops a conceptual model of advertising effects on brand search and conducts two experiments to test the tenets of this model. Specifically, the dissertation demonstrates that attitudinal responses generated by advertising mediate advertising effects on search attitudes and behaviors. The dissertation goes on to examine how attitudinal responses generated by advertising and subsequent effects on search alter brand preference and choice.

Abstract:
Avec le vieillissement de la population, le maintien à domicile des personnes âgées est devenu un enjeu majeur pour les pays développés et émergents. Parmi les solutions clés à explorer, les gérontechnologies sont considérées comme des plus prometteuses sans toutefois avoir apporté la preuve de leur efficacité pour l’autonomie domiciliaire, voire même être utilisables et acceptables pour le public visé. Dans ce contexte, une méthodologie de conception centrée-utilisateur a été mise en place pour proposer une plateforme d’assistance domiciliaire multi-tâches et multi-domaines (soutenant à la fois les activités quotidiennes, la sécurité de la personne et de son domicile et le lien social) ciblant un public âgé fragile en perte d’autonomie. Cette plateforme est appelée DomAssist. Sur la base d’une analyse des capacités physiques, cognitives et fonctionnelles en présence (étude 1) et des besoins d’assistance (étude 2) de notre échantillon d’étude, DomAssist a été conçu avec pour originalité une offre de services multi-domaines. En effet, la plateforme s’appuie d’une part sur un système de surveillance d’activités pour délivrer des assistances dites « context-aware » (étude 3) et d’autre part sur un système d’interaction homme-machine unifié et simplifié (étude 4), et ceci tout en promouvant l’auto-détermination (étude 5). Les résultats ont étayé la fiabilité du système de surveillance d’activités, et renforcé le bien-fondé de nos principes de conception concernant le système unifié d’interaction; et le soutien de l’auto-détermination. Notamment un rendu positif concernant l’utilisabilité et l’acceptabilité du système, et un effet bénéfique sur le sentiment de l’autodétermination des utilisateurs âgés ont été obtenus. De là, une dernière étude (étude 6) a évalué les bénéfices apportés après 6 mois d’utilisation de la plateforme, en termes de capacités fonctionnelles des participants fragiles, et de réduction du fardeau de l’aidant. Un effet positif (effet « protecteur » observé par les aidants professionnels) de DomAssist sur le statut fonctionnel des participants équipés (comparé aux contrôles) a été observé ainsi qu’une réduction du fardeau objectif de leur aidant. Au total, les résultats de ce travail pilote sont encourageants et ouvrent de nombreuses perspectives de recherche à fort potentiel d’impact sociétal concernant la problématique du maintien à domicile des personnes âgées
With the increase of life expectancy, aging in place is today a major concern for developed and emerging countries. Among the key solutions to explore, gerontechnologies are seen as the most promising. However, their evidence-based efficacy remains to be demonstrated for independent living or even for their usability and acceptance by the targeted old users. In this context, a user-centered conception methodology has been implemented for designing a multi-task and multi-domain (supporting everyday activities, safety, and social participation) assisted living platform targeting frail older adults with functional decline. This platform is named HomeAssist. Based on an analysis of physical, cognitive and fonctional abilities (study 1) and assistive technology needs (study 2) of our sample, HomeAssist has been designed with the originality of providing multi-domain services. Indeed, HomeAssist proposes an activity monitoring system to provide context-aware assistance (study 3), and a unified human-computer interaction system (study 4); while promoting self-determination (study 5). Results underpined the reliability of our activity monitoring system, and reinforced the rationale of our design principles, concerning the unified interaction system and the self-determination support. Notably, positive outcomes in terms of usability and acceptance of the system, as well as benefits concerning users’ feeling of self-determination have been obtained. From this, a last study (study 6) evaluated the benefits from a six-month use of HomeAssist, on functional abilities of frail older adults and caregiver burden. A positive effect of HomeAssist on functional status was obtained (“protective” effect reported by the professional caregivers), as well as a reduction of objective dimension of caregiver burden. Taken together, the results from these pilot studies are encouraging and open numerous research perspectives with high societal impact concerning the promotion of aging in place

Abstract:
The desire of every marketer is to develop and maintain strong customer relationships. One way this can be accomplished is through effective advertising. Marketers have recently begun to brand flash mobs as a way to effectuate strong brand relationships. Even so, it is unclear whether or not the branding of flash mobs supports or frustrates this pursuit. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to help marketers understand the potential impact that branded flash mobs may have on consumer behaviour and brand relationships. Since these interactions are complex we need to observe the convoluted whole from untangled vantage points. Marketing scholars and researchers must then attempt to understand the latent opportunities and unsuspecting dangers when branding a flash mob. Toward answering this end, four distinct research studies were used to examine the phenomenon from four different perspectives. The aim of the first paper is twofold. First, it deductively seeks to understand how to categorize branded flash mobs within the marketing literature through an historical and cultural analysis of the phenomenon. Exploratory in nature, this study then employs a mixed methods approach to understand how marketers are currently using flash mobs, and more importantly, if branded flash mobs are an effective tool of communication and persuasion. In the second paper, a field experiment was conducted to assess the impact of a branded flash mob on consumers’ emotions, consumer experience and connectedness in a public market. Qualitative interviews were used to capture the data. Shifting perspectives, the third paper seeks to understand why some branded flash mobs fail to ‘go viral’. Using of a number of focus groups, participants were asked to watch several branded flash mob videos and discuss their willingness to share them online (e.g., email, Facebook, or Twitter). Toward a better understanding of the impact of branded flash mobs on brand equity, the final paper evaluates viewers’ attitude toward the ad. Using netnographic techniques (Kozinets, 2002) 2,882 YouTube comments from three virally successful branded flash mobs ads were examined to understand how branded flash mobs affect brand equity. Responses grouped into one of four archetypical attitudes, each of which has a distinct impact on brand equity. Motivated by the potential for widespread exposure at a relatively low cost, marketers continue to produce branded flash mobs. Sometimes they are fresh and creative, while at others they are out of tune with the spirit of the phenomenon. This thesis uncovers the impact of these efforts on consumer behaviour and brand equity, and concludes with a guide for managers to consider when planning their next branded flash mob. An acknowledgement of the limitations and an outline for directions of future research are also presented.

Abstract:
A Thesis submitted to The University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine.
Primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) has an extremely poor prognosis with a mean survival time of 2‐3 years from time of diagnosis. Hemodynamically, PPH is defined with a mPAP of ≥ 25 mm Hg. Currently, RHC is the gold standard for measuring the arterial pressures and diagnosing PPH; however, it is an incredibly invasive procedure. Our study will show whether CT angiography can be considered as a non‐invasive alternative for diagnosing PPH. Studies in the past have shown CT measurements of the MPAD and MPAD/AAD ratio having strong correlations with PPH. In addition to those measurements, we want to show if other CT parameters also have a correlation with PPH. Some of these novel measurements include the interventricular septal deviation and the Elizabeth Taylor sign. The interventricular septum is normally bowing to the right in a non‐pathological state. If it is straight or bowing to the left, this will indicate increased right ventricular pressures which would be indicative of PPH. Straight will indicate increased RV pressures, and bowing to the left will be considered markedly increased RV pressures. The Elizabeth Taylor sign is the ratio of the diameter of the segmental bronchi and its corresponding artery. We will hypothesize that the artery will be much larger than the bronchi in patients with PPH. Other measurements will include the left and right pulmonary arteries. This study is a retrospective review of subjects who underwent an otherwise unremarkable CT pulmonary artery angiogram. Subjects with pulmonary embolism or other acute pulmonary diseases are excluded. For each subject, the following CT findings are obtained: main pulmonary artery diameter (mPAD), ratio of mPAD to ascending aorta, right and left pulmonary artery diameters, ratio of segmental pulmonary artery to corresponding bronchus, and interventricular septal displacement. Straightening of the interventricular septum qualifies as increased right ventricular septal pressure and right‐to‐left bowing of the septum qualifies as a marked increase. Mean pulmonary artery pressure measured on any prior/subsequent RHC or echocardiogram within 3 months of the CT is recorded. Any past medical history of connective tissue disease is noted. Descriptive data are calculated and correlations are done to assess for presence and strength of associations among variables. Data from 484 subjects are collected. Incidence rate of pulmonary hypertension isv13% (n=63). 52% (n=33) of the subjects with pulmonary hypertension are female with an average age of 55 years. mPA diameter (p<0.001), mPA:AA ratio (p<0.001), right (p<0.001) and left pulmonary artery (p=0.004) diameters are predictors of pulmonary hypertension. sPA:B ratio (p=0.08) and interventricular septal displacement (p=0.96) are not predictive of pulmonary hypertension. This study supports an association of mPA diameter, mPA:AA ratio, right and left pulmonary artery diameters with pulmonary hypertension diagnosed by RHC or echocardiogram. Prospective research is warranted to confirm and establish threshold values for each variable. Currently, an invasive RHC remains the most accurate method of diagnosis. Correlating CT findings with pulmonary hypertension would allow clinicians to use CT as a noninvasive screening tool.

Abstract:
Objetivo: La transmisión del virus hepatitis C (VHC) en nuestro país es más frecuente en personas que se inyectan drogas y en hombres que tienen sexo con hombres (HSH). Además el policonsumo y la patología dual (PD), implican mayor riesgo de contagio. Los antivirales de acción directa (AAD) han revolucionado el tratamiento del VHC, y suponen una oportunidad para eliminar el virus. El objetivo es describir la implementación del circuito para facilitar el acceso al tratamiento del VHC en el CAS Santa Coloma (desde el diagnóstico en un único paso, el enlace con atención especializada, hasta finalización del tratamiento). Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo de la trayectoria de los pacientes con VHC admitidos en el centro entre diciembre de 2016 y enero de 2020. Datos recogidos de la revisión de las historias clínicas. Resultados: Del total de pacientes, 122 (20%) presentaban anticuerpos anti-VHC (85 % hombres). En 39 (32%) la viremia fue positiva. De estos, 34 (87, 2%) consumían opiáceos como droga principal y 5 (12, 8 %) otras sustancias. Del total, 39 (32%) presentaban coinfección con VIH. Se detectó presencia de patología dual en 49 (40%) pacientes. La valoración médica fue realizada por Medicina Interna en 24 (61,5%) y por Digestología en 22 (54%). A final de enero/2020, 23 de los pacientes con viremia positiva (60 %) habían iniciado tratamiento con AAD. De ellos 12 (30%) habían conseguido remisión viral sostenida (RVS), 11 (28%) estaban realizando el tratamiento y 16 (41%) estaban pendientes de completar diagnóstico e iniciar tratamiento. Conclusiones: Un 60 % de los pacientes con viremia positiva han iniciado tratamiento con AAD y la totalidad de los que lo han finalizado presenta una RVS. Es necesario simplificar la trayectoria desde la detección hasta el inicio del tratamiento para conseguir la eliminación del VHC en usuarios de drogas.
