Abstract:
Abstract OBJECTIVE Image maps of Fractional Tumor Burden (FTB), derived from dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion MRI, provide clinically meaningful information for glioma treatment management. The goal of this study was to determine if presurgical FTB is predictive of overall survival (OS) in high-grade glioma (HGG) classified according to WHO 2016 criteria. METHODS Standardized relative cerebral blood volume (sRCBV) maps were created and co-registered with T1+C images using Horos (Version 4.0.0) and Imaging Biometrics software (Version 21.05) (Elm Grove, WI). Enhancing tumor volumes were determined from calibrated pre/post T1 difference (dT1) maps. Tissue-validated sRCBV thresholds were used to create FTB class maps within enhancing lesion with red regions (sRCBV > 1.556) indicating a high probability of vascular tumor, blue regions (sRCBV< 1.0) indicating avascular (non-tumor) tissue and yellow representing tissue with a lower probability of vascular tumor. FTB volume fractions (FTBv) for all vascular tumor (sRCBV >1.0) or the most vascular tumor (sRCBV > 1.566) were determined. Subjects were separated by MGMT methylation status. GraphPad Prism statistical software (Version 9.3.1) was used for Kaplan Meier survival analysis at 12 and 24 months with patients stratified by median FTBv. RESULTS Forty-one subjects (23 males, 18 females) with a median age of 59.45 years were included. Median 12-month and overall survival of unmethylated groups stratified by FTBv (rCBV > 1.0) of 8.33cc was 10.69 and 15.35 months (p=.0453; p=.0317). Unmethylated subjects stratified with FTBv (rCBV > 1.566) of 7.13cc had a median survival of 10.69 and 15.20 with short- and long-term survival distinguished at 12 months (p=0.0033), 24 months (p=0.0002) and overall (p=0.0002). No significant difference in survival was found between the methylated subgroups with FTBv (rCBV > 1.0) or FTBv (rCBV > 1.566) stratified analyses. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that pre-surgical FTBv is predictive of OS in newly diagnosed unmethylated high-grade glioma.

Abstract:
The present study aimed to estimate variance components and heritability coefficients (h2) in Santa Inês sheep by single- and two-trait analyses for the traits loin eye area (LEA), length (LEL) and maximum depth (LED), in the longissimus dorsi muscle, subcutaneous fat thickness (SFT), fat thickness over the biceps femoris muscle (FTBF), croup height (CH), thoracic circumference (TC), thoracic depth (TD), body length (BL), and adult live weight (ALW). The restricted maximum likelihood (REML) was used to estimate variance components in an animal model. In both types of analyses, we estimated moderate heritability for all traits, with the exception of SFT, CH, TC, BL, and ALW (all of which yielded low h2 estimates). In two-trait analysis for body size, only TD yielded a lower h2 estimate, when compared to single-trait analysis. On the other hand, CH, TC, and BL yielded higher h2 estimates. Most estimates for variance components and h2 in two-trait analysis were higher than those in single-trait analysis. This finding suggests the possibility of a moderate response to selection for improvement in the carcass of meat sheep using the specific carcass traits evaluated (except SFT), highlighting LEA. The fat thickness over the biceps femoris muscle showed higher potential for response to direct selection for fat deposition than SFT. Thoracic depth showed higher potential for response to direct selection for body size than the other morphometric measurements. In the present study, adult live weight was not an effective criterion for direct selection.

Abstract:
This paper describes the ongoing 3 years research and development at Amkor Technology on CoC (Chip on Chip)/FtF (Face to Face) – PossumTM technology. This technology has showed a lot of interests from the microelectronics customers/industries because of its various advantages, which include a) providing smaller form factor (SFF) to the final package, b) more functionalities (dies) can be incorporated/assembled in one package, c) improving the electrical performance - including lower parasitic resistance, lower power, and higher frequency bandwidth, and d) Opportunity for lower cost 3D system integration. Unlike other 3D Packaging technology (e.g. using TSV (Through Silicon Vias)) that requires some works in the front stream (wafer foundry) level, needs new capitals for machines/equipments, and needs modified assembly lines; CoC/FtF technology uses the existing flip Chip Attach (C/A) or TC (Thermal Compression) equipment/machine to perform the assembly joint between the two dies, which are named as the mother (larger) die and the daughter (smaller) die. Furthermore, the cost to assemble CoC/FtF is relatively inexpensive while the applications are very wide and endless, which include the 3D integration of MEMS and ASIC. The current MEMS packaging and test cost contributes about 35 to 45% to the overall MEMS unit cost. WLC (Wafer Level Capping) with wire bonding have been widely used for mass production for accelerometer (e.g. ADI and Motorola), gyroscope (e.g. Bosch and Invensense), and oscillator /timer (e.g. Discera). The WLC produce drawbacks of a large form factor and the increase in the capacitive and electrical resistances. Currently, the industries have been developing a new approach of 3D WLP (Wafer Level Packaging) by using a) TSV MEMS cap with wire bonding (e.g. Discera), b) TSV MAME cap with solder bump (e.g. Samsung, IMEC, and VTI), and c) TSV MEMS wafer/die with cap (e.g. Silex Microsystems). The needs of TSVs in the 3D WLP will add the packaging cost and reduce the design flexibility is pre-TSV wafer is used. “Amkor CoC/FtoF – PossumTM” is an alternative technology for 3D integration of MEMS and ASIC. CoC/FtoF – PossumTM does not require TSV or wire bonding; Miniaturizing form factor of 1.5 mm x 1.5 mm x 0.95 mm (including the package) of MEMS and ASIC can be achieved by using CoC/FtoF – PossumTM while Discera's design of 3D WLP requires substrate size > 2 mm x 2 mm. CoC/FtoF – PossumTM will likely produce packaging cost which is lower than WLC or 3D WLP – TSV at the same time the customer is benefited from smaller FF and reduced electrical/parasitic resistance. CoC/FtoF – PossumTM can be applied to any substrates including FCBGA and laminate. This technology also can be applied to package multiple MEMS microsensors, together with ASIC, microcontroller, and wireless RF to realize the 3D system integration.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to assess financial interoperability implications associated with first-time buyers (FTB) in housing development and the role of the community land trust shared equity housing model (CLT SEHM). Design/methodology/approach The interoperability optimisation process adopted by this study involved triangulated findings from the literature, semi-structured interviews and questionnaire surveys. The text analysis of interview responses was actualised with Nvivo 9.0. This process informed the validation of themes through a questionnaire survey (purposive sampling), of which findings were subsequently analysed with statistical methods including binary logistic regression to validate interoperability rational and implications. Findings The study identified positive financial interoperability outcomes for a successful synergy between the CLT SEHM and FTBs. From the analysis, there were sustainable results for average income multiple and property transfer/resale value for the CLT SEHM compared to conventional models. However, for the most at risk FTB groups, recommendations included increased concessions for CLT SEHM developments to incentivise bespoke rent purchase hybrid schemes. Originality/value This research provided a good starting point for achieving an improved level of efficiency necessary for the introduction of emerging/renewed alternative housing models into mainstream operational capabilities in housing and local development policies.

Abstract Abstract 193 No definitive data exist defining the optimal myeloablative and/or immunosuppressive association of Reduced Intensity Conditioning (RIC) for allo-SCT. In this perspective, we report the first prospective comparison between 2 widely used conditioning regimens based on reduced intensity or non-myeloablative approaches. Pts were randomized between FBA (Study A) (Fludarabine (30mg/m2/5 days)+Oral Busulfan (4 mg/kg/d over 2 days)+Thymoglobuline (2.5 mg/kg/1day)) (Post graft immunosuppression (IS): CSA) and FTBI (Study B) (Fludarabine (25mg/m2/day over 3 days)+2 Gy TBI) (Post Graft IS: CSA+MMF). Primary endpoint was one-year overall survival (OS). Inclusion criteria were: hematological malignancies, pts non eligible for myeloablative allo SCT, age between 18 and 65, suitable HLA identical sibling, written informed consent. 139 pts were randomized and treated between 2003 and 2008 (Group FBA: N=69; group FTBI: N=70) at 4 transplant centers. The 2 groups were comparable in term of pts characteristics; Median age 54 (21–65); Male gender: 65%; Diagnosis: acute leukemia 18%; NHL 23%; MM 39% others 20%; Disease status: only 32% of the 139 pts were in CR while 68% had measurable disease (PR and stable disease=60%; refractory disease: 8%). Graft failure was documented in 4 pts (6%) in FTBI group. Cumulative incidences (CI) of grade >= 2 aGVHD and cGVHD were respectively: 37% (Group FBA 51%; Group FTBI 26%; p=.003) and 77% (Group FBA 79%; Group FTBI 76%: p=NS). At 1 year, PFS differed (Group FBA 0.68 [0.56 – 0.78]; Group FTBI 0.51 [0.39 – 0.62]; p=0.048) while OS was similar (Group FBA 0.75 [0.63 – 0.84]; Group FTBI 0.74 [0.62 – 0.83]; p=NS). With a median follow-up of 39 months (3–71), 72 pts were alive (Group FBA: 35; Group FTBI: 37: p=NS) with a 5 year OS probability estimate of 0.45 [0.31– 0.57] and 0.49 [0.35– 0.61] for groups FBA and FTBI respectively (p=NS). 53 pts were progression free with a 5 year PFS probability estimate of 0.35 [0.22– 0.48] for group FBA ,and 0.23 [0.10– 0.38] for Group FTBI (p=NS). Median PFS were 26.3 (IC95%:13.6 – 47.3) and 13.1 (IC95% : 7.4 – 25.6) months (mths) in groups FBA and FTBI respectively. More relapses/progressions occurred in group FTBI (p=.005) with a 5 year relapse/progression cumulative incidence (CI) of 0.28 [0.16– 0.40] for group FBA and 0.50 [0.39– 0.60] for Group FTBI. Three pts died from secondary cancers (Group FBA: 1; Group FTBI: 2) and 38 from transplant related causes with a 5 year TRM CI of 0.37 [0.25– 0.49] for group FBA and 0.24 [0.14– 0.34] for Group FTBI (p=0.199). QOL was assessed over a 1-year period with the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. FBA regimen had a stronger negative impact on patients' QOL during the treatment administration which resolved 80 days after the SCT. Detailed economic analysis was included in the clinical trial. Preliminary evaluation of medical direct costs (conditioning regimen, transfusions, hospitalisations and anti-infectious drugs consumption) demonstrated a crude advantage for the FTBI group (66,711€ vs 42,080€ for the FBA and FTBI groups respectively, p<0.001). The cost-effectiveness ratio using PFS as endpoint was 22,392 € per year of life free of relapse gained using FBA conditioning regimen when compared to FTBI. In conclusion, this study establishes that, these 2 regimens produce similar 1 year OS. However, FBA is associated with better 1 year PFS and socially acceptable cost-effectiveness ratio but worse early QOL. FBA is also associated with better long term disease control, whereas FTBI tends to produce lower TRM and higher rejection rates. At 5 years, both OS and PFS appear to be similar in this population of rather old patients with advanced hematological malignancies. Cost-effectiveness analysis using OS as effectiveness criterion and including the cost evaluation of relapse treatment is ongoing. Overall, these results contribute to clarify some previously unanswered issues. Clinical data might help designing individual and optimal strategies for each candidate patient, based on factors that predict the probability of relapse and TRM while economical data may help hospitals to tailor their transplant program, depending on the patient population that they care for.

Abstract:
Extruded noodles made from whole Tartary buckwheat are widely known as healthy staple foods, while the treatment of fresh noodles after extrusion is crucial. The difference in sensory and functional quality between frozen noodles (FTBN) and hot air-dried noodles (DTBN) was investigated in this study. The results showed a shorter optimum cooking time (FTBN of 7 min vs. DTBN of 17 min), higher hardness (8656.99 g vs. 5502.98 g), and less cooking loss (5.85% vs. 21.88%) of noodles treated by freezing rather than hot air drying, which corresponded to better sensory quality (an overall acceptance of 7.90 points vs. 5.20 points). These effects on FTBN were attributed to its higher ratio of bound water than DTBN based on the Low-Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance results and more pores of internal structure in noodles based on the Scanning Electron Microscopy results. The uniform water distribution in FTBN promoted a higher recrystallization (relative crystallinity of FTBN 26.47% vs. DTBN 16.48%) and retrogradation (degree of retrogradation of FTBN 34.67% vs. DTBN 26.98%) of starch than DTBN, strengthening the stability of starch gel after noodle extrusion. FTBN also avoided the loss of flavonoids and retained better antioxidant capacity than DTBN. Therefore, frozen treatment is feasible to maintain the same quality as freshly extruded noodles made from whole Tartary buckwheat. It displays significant commercial potential for gluten-free noodle production to maximize the health benefit of the whole grain, as well as economic benefits since it also meets the sensory quality requirements of consumers.

Abstract Introduction/Objective TB is a strong prognosticator in CRC. The international TB consensus conference (ITBCC, 2016) proposed a “hot spot” approach for TB grading. We aimed to identify the characteristics of sections with the highest TB grade utilizing ITBCC’s method. Methods Resected CRC cases, excluding treated cases, were retrieved. All tumor sections were examined. Section TB grade(sTB) was noted. The highest sTB was deemed the final TB grade(fTB) of each case. The following categories were assessed: 1) maximum T stage; 2) presence of benign mucosa; 3) presence of a precursor lesion; 4) highest tumor volume; 5) presence of lymphovascular invasion(LVI). In cases where a given category was demonstrated in &gt;1 section, the section with the highest sTB was used. High risk features (HFR) included T4, &lt;12 lymph nodes, positive margin, high grade tumor, perineural invasion and LVI. Pearson’s correlation was performed to compare two groups using a p-value of &lt;0.05. Results 147 cases were examined. fTB was 1=25.2%, 2=40.8% and 3=34%. 63 tumors involved the left colon and 62 had nodal disease. Of 119 cases with known MMR status 44 were MMR deficient. sTB was uniform across the categories in 101(68.7%) and uneven in 46(32.3%) cases. 12(24.5%) of 49 stage II CRC without HRF showed uneven sTB, with 2 showing 2-tier discrepancy (sTB1, fTB3). sTB was highest for category 3 (94.1%, P&lt;.001), followed by category 2 (91.8%, P&lt;.001), and lowest for category 1 (82.3%, P&lt;.001), which remained true after subgrouping by MMR status and tumor location. Conclusion While about 70% of cases showed uniform TB grading across categories, choosing the slide(s) with a precursor lesion or benign mucosa increases the probability of correctly grading TB. Given the management implication, it may be prudent to scan all tumor slides in stage II CRC without HRF to avoid under-grading of TB.

Abstract:
Nowadays, flexible transparent conductive film (FTCF) is one of the important components of many flexible electronic devices. Due to comprehensive performances on optoelectronics, FTCF based on silver nanowires (AgNWs) networks have received great attention and are expected to be a new generation of transparent conductive film materials. Due to its simple process, printed electronic technology is now an important technology for the rapid production of low-cost and high-quality flexible electronic devices. AgNWs-based FTCF fabricated by using printed electronic technology is considered to be the most promising process. Here, the preparation and performance of AgNW ink are introduced. The current printing technologies are described, including gravure printing, screen printing and inkjet printing. In addition, the latest methods to improve the conductivity, adhesion, and stability of AgNWs-based FTCF are introduced. Finally, the applications of AgNWs-based FTCF in solar cells, transparent film heaters, optoelectronic devices, touch panel, and sensors are introduced in detail. Therefore, combining various printing technologies with AgNWs ink may provide more opportunities for the development of flexible electronic devices in the future.

Abstract:
Le récepteur nucléaire Fetoprotein Transcription Factor (FTF) identifié par notre laboratoire et exprimé principalement dans le système digestif est un régulateur important du métabolisme des lipides et des stéroïdes, de la prolifération cellulaire et du développement embryonnaire. Plusieurs groupes ont constaté que l’influence du récepteur FTF sur la synthèse de stéroïdes et la régulation du cycle cellulaire stimule la prolifération tumorale de cellules d’origine tissulaire diverse. Mes études de doctorat ont porté sur l’expression tissulaire de FTF, sur la caractérisation d’un nouvel élément régulateur de son promoteur et sur l’identification par immunoprécipitation de chromatine (ChIP-chip) des cibles transcriptionnelles de FTF dans le foie de souris fœtale et adulte et dans les cellules d’hépatome humain. Ces études ont permis de mieux définir le rôle métabolique de FTF ainsi que son rôle développemental et son implication potentielle dans la carcinogenèse hépatique. L’expression de FTF par les organes du système digestif et par certaines structures nerveuses, sa régulation par des récepteurs nucléaires métaboliques et sa liaison aux promoteurs de multiples enzymes et transporteurs impliqués dans le métabolisme énergétique placent FTF dans une position clé dans l’homéostasie métabolique et énergétique de l’organisme. Le facteur de transcription C/EBPpartenaire de FTF au promoteur de l’AFP et impliqué lui aussi dans le développement hépatique et le métabolisme énergétique, est lié au promoteur de 20% des cibles transcriptionnelles de FTF. De plus, C/EBP lie le promoteur de FTF formant ainsi une autre boucle activatrice s’ajoutant au réseau transcriptionnel hépatique. Dans les cellules d’hépatome, FTF lie les promoteurs de plusieurs gènes impliqués dans la prolifération et le maintien des cellules tumorales, soit des régulateurs de la réplication, de la croissance et de l’apoptose cellulaire. FTF fait donc partie intégrante du réseau transcriptionnel hépatique régissant le développement et la différenciation hépatique et le maintien du métabolisme énergétique chez l’adulte et est vraisemblablement impliqué dans la promotion de la cancérogenèse hépatique.
FTF is a nuclear receptor principally expressed in adult digestive organs that has been shown to act as a major regulator of lipids and steroids metabolism, cellular proliferation and embryonic development. FTF involvement in steroid synthesis and cell cycle regulation tends toward the stimulation of tumor proliferation in neoplasic tissues in which FTF is expressed. However, more studies of FTF function in normal and disease states and on its regulation are needed to draw a complete picture of FTF activity in cell physiology. Within the context of my studies, I delineated the FTF adult and fetal tissular expression, characterized a novel Ftf promoter element and identified FTF direct hepatic transcriptional targets in fetal, adult and tumor cell lines by using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP-on-chip). These studies defined new FTF functions in metabolism, fetal development and hepatic carcinogenesis. FTF expression in digestive system and in neural structures controlling eating behavior, its transcriptional regulation by metabolic nuclear receptors and its binding to enzyme and transporter gene promoters driving energy metabolism, puts FTF in a key location for governing cellular and organismal energy metabolism. C/EBP, a transcriptional FTF partner on the Afp gene promoter and also involved in energy metabolism, is bound to 20% of the FTF targets including FTF itself thus adding branches to the complex hepatic transcriptional network. In hepatoma cells, FTF binds to proliferation and tumor cell maintenance genes like replication, growth and apoptosis regulators. Therefore, FTF belongs to the hepatic transcription network that governs hepatic development, differentiation and adult energy metabolism and is likely to be involved in promoting hepatic tumorogenesis.

O grupo S apresentou-se com 44 indivíduos e o grupo TD com 32. Julgadores fizeram análises subjetivas em fotografias de sete atributos em cada indivíduo, utilisando-se de uma escala numérica de 1 a 5. Da análise de prontuários foram obtidas as complicações pós operatórias imediatas e mediatas, além do número de internações cirúrgicas e do número de retornos ambulatoriais. Os próprios indivíduos responderam a duas escalas visuais analógicas (EVA), uma de satisfação da sua aparência e outra do tratamento recebido no HRAC-USP e também a um questionário de qualidade de vida da Organização Mundial da Saúde (WHOQOL-bref). Resultados: As duas técnicas cirúrgicas utilizadas não mostraram diferença estatística nas análises fotográficas subjetivas. As complicações cirúrgicas imediatas e mediatas foram semelhantes entre os grupos. Houve diferença estatística significante quanto ao número de cirurgias (p=0,0000), o grupo S apresentou 8,06 (2,18) e o grupo TD apresentou 4,72 (1,45) internações cirúrgicas, os atendimentos ambulatoriais não apresentaram diferenças apresentando para o grupo S 27,49 (17,58) e 22,31 (15,38) vindas ao hospital. As escalas visuais analógicas (EVA) de satisfação da aparência apresentaram para o grupo S 53,80 (14,46) e TD 57,54 (14,41) e do tratamento recebido no HRAC-USP para S 68,14 (11,16) e TD 63,18 (11,39). O WHOQOL-bref também não mostrou diferença entre os grupos em nenhum dos seus domínios. Conclusão: As queiloplastias realizadas pelas técnicas de Spina e de Spina modificada pelo HRAC-USP, não mostraram diferença estatística nos resultados das avaliações fotográficas, das complicações pós operatórias imediatas e mediatas, do número de atendimentos ambulatoriais, das escalas visuais analógicas de satisfação da aparência e do atendimento recebido no HRAC-USP, e do questionário de qualidade de vida. Os indivíudos operados pela técnica de Spina modificada pelo HRAC-USP apresentaram menos internações cirúrgicas que indivíduos os operados pela técnica clássica de Spina, com resultados estatísticos significativos.

Abstract:
Les instabilités thermoacoustiques, également appelées instabilités de combustion, sont un problème majeur pour la production d’électricité ainsi que dans l’industrie aérospatiale. Ces instabilités sont dues à un transfert d’énergie entre une source chaude, le plus souvent une flamme stabilisée dans un brûleur, et le champ acoustique environnant. Les instabilités de combustion peuvent avoir de nombreuses conséquences délétères telles que l’extinction de la flamme, l’augmentation des flux de chaleur pariétaux, l’émission d’ondes sonores de grande amplitude à certaines fréquences, des vibrations importantes, des dégâts structurels et même l’explosion du moteur dans certains cas. Étant donné les conséquences potentielles de tels phénomènes, d’importants moyens de recherche ont été consacrés à la prédiction de l’apparition d’instabilités de combustion dans les chaudières, les moteurs de fusée et les turbines à gaz ces dernières décennies. Néanmoins, le cadre théorique associé à l’étude de ces instabilités est complexe et nécessite l’emploi de nombreuses disciplines de la physique. De plus, les brûleurs industriels sont constitués de nombreuses cavités tridimensionnelles interagissant entre elles d’un point de vue acoustique. Pour toutes ces raisons, la prédiction de la stabilité thermoacoustique d’un brûleur demeure une tâche ardue à ce jour... (Voir le texte de la thèse pour la suite du résumé)
Thermoacoustic instabilities, also known as combustion instabilities, are a major concern in the aerospace and energy production industries. They are due to an energy transfer that occurs between a heat source, usually a flame stabilized inside a combustor, and the surrounding acoustic field and may lead to undesirable phenomena such as flame extinction, increased heat fluxes, very large sound emissions at certain frequencies, vibration, structural damage and even catastrophic failure in some cases. Given the potential consequences of such phenomena, a large research effort has been devoted to predicting the onset of combustion instabilities in modern boilers, rocket engines and gas turbines during the past few decades. Unfortunately, the theoretical framework associated with the study of thermoacoustic instabilities is complex and multi-physics and the geometry of practical combustors is an intricate arrangement of 3D cavities. As a consequence, predicting the thermoacoustic stability of a combustor at an early design stage is a challenging task to date... (See inside the manuscript for the remainder of the abstract)

Abstract:
Bile acids regulate their own synthesis through a feedback regulatory mechanism of mainly two enzymes in the classic pathway, the 7α-hydroxylase and the 12α-hydroxylase. In the early 1990's it was shown that the regulatory responses of 7α-hydroxylase are mediated at the transcriptional level and since then many positive and negative transcription factors that mediate regulatory response have been identified. An important finding was that the transcription factors regulating the expression of 7α- and 12α-hydroxylase genes are nuclear receptors.One of the first nuclear receptors identified to play a role in the transcription of the 7α-hydroxylase gene was HNF-4 since then many nuclear receptors have been identified that are involved in regulating the 7α- and 12α-hydroxylase genes. Among them the most important ones are FTF and HNF-4 which has been shown to play crucial roles in the transcription and regulation by bile acids. In this study we demonstrate the importance of FTF and HNF-4 independent of each other in the transcription and bile acid-mediated regulation of the 7α- and 12α-hydroxylase enzymes by creating promoter mutants that would either bind FTF or HNF- 4. Once the binding studies were established we performed tissue culture experiments to confirm the promoter activity and bile acid-mediated regulation with the respective promoter mutant constructs. The data from this study shows that HNF-4 is important for 7α-hydroxylase promoter activity but is not required and importantly we show that HNF-4 is not a required for the bile acid-mediated regulation of the 7α-hydroxylase. We present data which suggests that FTF is absolutely required for the promoter activity and bile acid-mediated regulation of 7α-hydroxylase. With respect to the 12α-hydroxylases how that both FTF and HNF-4 are absolutely required for promoter activity. In this study we present evidence that since the bile acid responsive elements (BARE) are similar within both the 7α- and 12α-hydroxylase promoters one can be exchanged for the other maintaining both activity and bile acid-mediated regulation.

Abstract:
A broadside radiating, linearly polarized, electrically small Huygens source antenna system that has a large impedance bandwidth is reported. The bandwidth performance is facilitated by embedding non-Foster components into the near-field resonant parasitic elements of this metamaterial-inspired antenna. High-quality and stable radiation performance characteristics are achieved over the entire operational bandwidth. When the ideal non-Foster components are introduced, the simulated impedance bandwidth witnesses approximately a 17-fold enhancement over the passive case. Within this -10-dB bandwidth, its maximum realized gain, radiation efficiency, and front-to-back ratio (FTBR) are, respectively, 4.00 dB, 88%, and 26.95 dB. When the anticipated actual negative impedance convertor circuits are incorporated, the impedance bandwidth still sustains more than a 10-fold enhancement. The peak realized gain, radiation efficiency, and FTBR values are, respectively, 3.74 dB, 80%, and 28.01 dB, which are very comparable to the ideal values.

Full text
Abstract:
Shifting Bloom filters use location offset to encode state values for a set of elements. In spite of its novelty, classification error rate inherent to shifting Bloom filters needs to be improved. In this paper, we design a hierarchical shifting bloom filter to address this issue. Firstly, state values of elements in a set are partitioned into disjoint groups. Each group is assigned a unique group number. Then these group numbers implicitly assigned to elements are encoded by a major shifting Bloom filter(MShi ftBF). Each group is further associated with a secondary shifting Bloom filter(SShiftBF). State values of elements belonging to some group are encoded by the corresponding SShiftBF separately. Compared with standard Shifting Bloom filters, the advantage of the hierarchical structure of the proposed scheme is that we can improve both classification error rate and false positive rate. Finally, we provide theoretical analysis and conduct simulation experiments to demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms standard shifting Bloom filters.

Abstract:
This chapter examines characteristics of information and communication technology (ICT) and face-to-face communication and their associations with subjective wellbeing among students. The participants were N=500 students who reported average time they spent in face-to-face (FtF) and ICT communications. They also reported dominant communication in two types of communication contexts (communication purpose and persons involved in communication) and estimated their happiness and life satisfaction. Students spent more time in FtF communication than in ICT. Those who spent more time in FtF communication with friends were happier and more satisfied with their lives. FtF communication was dominant when meeting new people, for personal talk, and for flirting, while ICT communication was dominant for casual and informative chat. Students most frequently communicated with close persons FtF. Students who use dominantly FtF communication for personal talk and with people from their private lives (i.e., parents, friends, partners) were happier and more satisfied with their lives.

Full text
Abstract:
The Flame Transfer Function (FTF) of premixed laminar conical flames submitted to flowrate modulations is a configuration of fundamental and practical interest for improving the design of thermo-acoustically stable low power burners. Many theoretical models were developed for relatively large single flames based on labscale experiments, while most domestic and industrial burners operate with a collection of small injectors. Measurements of the FTF of laminar premixed methane/air conical flames are compared with analytical expressions deduced from kinematic descriptions of flame wrinkling when the burner size is reduced. The flame aspect ratio is kept constant corresponding to a flame tip half-angle α = 14.47° and the radius of the injector is reduced from R = 11 mm to R = 1.5 mm. Three different velocity perturbation models are tested, with and without an additional model accounting for the dynamics of the flame anchoring point. For the largest flames R = 11 mm and 7 mm, the best agreement is found for a FTF model with an incompressible velocity disturbance in the fresh reactants stream. The anchoring point dynamics has only a weak influence on the FTF gain and phase-lag plots of these flames. For the smallest flames (R = 1.5 mm), a FTF model based on a uniform flow perturbation yields the best match with experiments for the phase-lag plot, but none of the three velocity perturbation models reproduce the FTF gain evolution as measured in experiments. Including the contribution of the anchoring point dynamics to the FTF significantly changes the FTF gain predictions, but it does not allow to reproduce the main features observed in the measured gain curves and the phase-lag predictions worsen. It is concluded that an additional modeling effort is needed to adequatedly reproduce the FTF of small premixed laminar conical flames.

Abstract:
The frequency response of premixed swirled flames is investigated by comparing their Transfer Function (FTF) between velocity and heat release rate fluctuations. The equivalence ratio and flow velocity are kept constant and four different swirling injectors are tested with increasing swirl numbers. The first injector features a vanishing low swirl number S = 0.20 and produces a flame anchored by the recirculating flow in the wake of a central bluff body. The three other swirling injectors produce highly swirled flows (S > 0.6) leading to a much larger internal recirculation region, which size increases with the swirl level. When operating the burner at S = 0.20, the FTF gain curve smoothly increases to reach a maximum and then smoothly decreases towards zero. For the highly swirled flames (S > 0.6), the FTF gain curve shows a succession of valleys and peaks attributed to interferences between axial and azimuthal velocity fluctuations at the injector outlet. The FTF phase-lag curves from the vanishing low and highly swirled flames are the same at low frequencies despite their large differences in flame length and flame aspect ratio. Deviations between the FTF phase lag curves of the different swirled flames start above the frequency corresponding to the first valley in the FTF gain of the highly swirled flames. Phase averaged images of the axial flow fields and of the flame chemiluminescence are used to interpret these features. At forcing frequencies corresponding to peak FTF gain values, the cold flow response of all flames investigated is dominated by large coherent vortical structures shed from the injector lip. At forcing frequencies corresponding to a valley in the FTF gain curve of the highly swirled flames, the formation of large coherent structures is strongly hindered in the cold flow response. These observations contrast with previous interpretations of the mechanisms associated to the low FTF response of swirled flames. It is finally found that for flames stabilized with a large swirl number, heat release rate fluctuations result both from large flame luminosity oscillations and large flame volume oscillations. For conditions leading to a small FTF gain value, both the flame luminosity and flame volume fluctuations are suppressed confirming the absence of strong perturbations within the flow at these frequencies. The experiments made in this work reveal a purely hydrodynamic mechanism at the origin of the low response of swirling flames at certain specific frequencies.

Abstract:
School-related gender-based violence (SRGBV) remains difficult to measure because of high sensitivity and response bias. However, most SRGBV measurement relies on face-to-face (FTF) survey administration, which is susceptible to increased social desirability bias. Widely used in research on sensitive topics, Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview (ACASI) allows subjects to respond to pre-recorded questions on a computerized device, providing respondents with privacy and confidentiality. This brief contains the findings from a large-scale study conducted in Uganda in 2019 where primary grade 3 students were randomly selected to complete surveys using either ACASI or FTF administration. The surveys covered school climate, gender attitudes, social-emotional learning, and experiences of SRGBV. Through this study, we find that although most survey responses were comparable between ACASI and FTF groups, the reporting of experiences of sexual violence differed drastically: 43% of students in the FTF group versus 77% of students in the ACASI group reported experiencing sexual violence in the past school term. We also find that factor structures are similar for data collected with ACASI compared with data collected FTF, though there is weaker evidence for construct validity for both administration modes. We conclude that ACASI is a valuable tool in measuring sensitive sub-topics of SRGBV and should be utilized over FTF administration, although further psychometric testing of these surveys is recommended.

Abstract:
In 2014, reports suggested that a surge of foreign jihadists were participating in armed conflicts in Syria, Iraq, and elsewhere. The United Nations Security Council responded by imposing in Resolution 2178 (2014) an array of obligations on member states to counter the threat posed by “foreign terrorist fighters” (FTFs). In the intervening year, those states have taken a range of actions — though at various speeds and with varying levels of commitment — to implement the FTF obligations imposed by the Council. Meanwhile, many states continue to fund and otherwise throw their support behind life-saving humanitarian relief for civilians in armed conflicts around the world — including conflicts involving terrorists. Yet, in recent years, members of the humanitarian community have been increasingly aware of the real, perceived, and potential impacts of counterterrorism laws on humanitarian action. Part of their interest stems from the fact that certain counterterrorism laws may, intentionally or unintentionally, adversely affect principled humanitarian action, especially in regions where terrorist groups control territory (and thus access to civilians, too). The effects of these laws may be widespread — ranging from heightened due diligence requirements on humanitarian organizations to restrictions on travel, from greater government scrutiny of national and regional staff of humanitarian organizations to decreased access to financial services and funding. Against that backdrop, this briefing report has two aims: first, to provide a primer on the most salient issues at the intersection of counterterrorism measures and humanitarian aid and assistance, with a focus on the ascendant FTF framing. And second, to put forward, for critical feedback and assessment, a provisional methodology for evaluating the following question: is it feasible to subject two key contemporary wartime concerns — the fight against FTFs and supporting humanitarian aid and assistance for civilians in terrorist-controlled territories — to meaningful empirical analysis?
