Abstract

Recent progress in "on-the-fly" trajectory simulations of molecular reactions, using different electronic structure methods is discussed, with analysis of the insights that such calculations can provide and of the strengths and limitations of the algorithms available. New developments in the use of both ab initio and semi-empirical electronic structure algorithms are described. The emphasis is on: (i) calculations of electronic properties along the reactive trajectories and the unique insights this can contribute to the processes; (ii) electronic structure methods recently introduced to this topic to improve accuracy, extend applicability or enhance computational efficiency. The methods are presented with examples, including new results, of reactions of both isolated molecules and of molecules in media, mostly clusters. Possible future directions for this fast growing field are suggested.

14. Attenuating the fermion sign problem in path integral Monte Carlo simulations using the Bogoliubov inequality and thermodynamic integration

Author

(0000-0001-7293-6615) Dornheim, T., Invernizzi, M., Hirshberg, B., (0000-0001-5926-9192) Vorberger, J., (0000-0001-7293-6615) Dornheim, T., Invernizzi, M., Hirshberg, B., and (0000-0001-5926-9192) Vorberger, J.

Abstract

Accurate thermodynamic simulations of correlated fermions using path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) methods are of paramount importance for many applications such as the description of ultracold atoms, electrons in quantum dots, and warm-dense matter. The main obstacle is the fermion sign problem (FSP), which leads to an exponential increase in computation time both with increasing the system-size and with decreasing temperature. Very recently, Hirshberg et al.[J. Chem. Phys. 152, 171102 (2020)] have proposed to alleviate the FSP based on the Bogoliubov inequality. In the present work, we extend this approach by adding a parameter that controls the perturbation, allowing for an extrapolation to the exact result. In this way, we can also use thermodynamic integration to obtain an improved estimate of the fermionic energy. As a test system, we choose electrons in 2D and 3D quantum dots and find in some cases a speed-up exceeding 10^ 6, as compared to standard PIMC, while retaining a relative accuracy of ~0.1%. Our approach is quite general and can readily be adapted to other simulation methods.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular safety and efficacy of many current antihyperglycemic agents, including saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, are unclear. METHODS: We randomly assigned 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes who had a history of, or were at risk for, cardiovascular events to receive saxagliptin or placebo and followed them for a median of 2.1 years. Physicians were permitted to adjust other medications, including antihyperglycemic agents. The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. RESULTS: A primary end-point event occurred in 613 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 609 patients in the placebo group (7.3% and 7.2%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio with saxagliptin, 1.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89 to 1.12; P=0.99 for superiority; P<0.001 for noninferiority); the results were similar in the "on-treatment" analysis (hazard ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.91 to 1.17). The major secondary end point of a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, coronary revascularization, or heart failure occurred in 1059 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 1034 patients in the placebo group (12.8% and 12.4%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.94 to 1.11; P=0.66). More patients in the saxagliptin group than in the placebo group were hospitalized for heart failure (3.5% vs. 2.8%; hazard ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.07 to 1.51; P=0.007). Rates of adjudicated cases of acute and chronic pancreatitis were similar in the two groups (acute pancreatitis, 0.3% in the saxagliptin group and 0.2% in the placebo group; chronic pancreatitis, <0.1% and 0.1% in the two groups, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: DPP-4 inhibition with saxagliptin did not increase or decrease the rate of ischemic events, though the rate of hospitalization for heart failure was

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular safety and efficacy of many current antihyperglycemic agents, including saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, are unclear. METHODS: We randomly assigned 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes who had a history of, or were at risk for, cardiovascular events to receive saxagliptin or placebo and followed them for a median of 2.1 years. Physicians were permitted to adjust other medications, including antihyperglycemic agents. The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. RESULTS: A primary end-point event occurred in 613 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 609 patients in the placebo group (7.3% and 7.2%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio with saxagliptin, 1.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89 to 1.12; P=0.99 for superiority; P

Abstract

To assess the efficacy and tolerability of saxagliptin and C-peptide secretion in patients with diagnosed type 2 diabetes classified as glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA)-positive or GADA-negative.Post hoc analysis of data pooled from five randomized, placebo-controlled, 24-week phase 3 studies (n = 2709) was conducted. We evaluated mean change from baseline at week 24 in HbA1c , fasting plasma glucose, postprandial plasma glucose, fasting and postprandial C-peptide, and HOMA2-%β and the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c 7% (53 mmol/mol) at week 24.Saxagliptin produced greater adjusted mean reductions from baseline in HbA1c versus placebo for GADA-negative [difference vs placebo (95% CI), -0.62% (-0.71% to -0.54%); -6.8 mmol/mol (-7.8, -5.9)] and GADA-positive patients [-0.64% (-1.01% to -0.27%); -7.0 mmol/mol (-11.0, -3.0)]. Consistently, saxagliptin produced a greater reduction from baseline in fasting plasma glucose and postprandial plasma glucose versus placebo in GADA-positive versus GADA-negative patients, and more patients achieved HbA1c 7% (53 mmol/mol) with saxagliptin versus placebo in both GADA-negative and GADA-positive patients. Saxagliptin increased β-cell function as assessed by HOMA2-%β and postprandial C-peptide area under the curve from baseline in patients in both GADA-positive and GADA-negative patients. Adverse events and hypoglycaemic events were similar across treatment groups and GADA categories.Saxagliptin was effective in lowering blood glucose levels and generally well tolerated in GADA-positive patients. Interestingly, saxagliptin appears to improve β-cell function in these patients, although a longer treatment duration may be needed to confirm this finding.

29. Pancreatic beta cell function persists in many with chronic T1D, but is not dramatically improved by prolonged immunosuppression and euglycemia from a beta cell allograft

Abstract

We measured serum C-peptide (at least 0.167 nmol/l) in 54 of 141 (38%) patients with chronic type 1 diabetes and sought factors that might differentiate those with detectable C-peptide from those without it. Finding no differences, and in view of the persistent anti-beta cell autoimmunity in such patients, we speculated that the immunosuppression (to weaken autoimmune attack) and euglycaemia accompanying transplant-based treatments of type 1 diabetes might promote recovery of native pancreatic beta cell function.We performed arginine stimulation tests in three islet transplant and four whole-pancreas transplant recipients, and measured stimulated C-peptide in select venous sampling sites. On the basis of each sampling site's C-peptide concentration and kinetics, we differentiated insulin secreted from the individual's native pancreatic beta cells and that secreted from allografted beta cells.Selective venous sampling demonstrated that despite long-standing type 1 diabetes, all seven beta cell allograft recipients displayed evidence that their native pancreas secreted C-peptide. Yet even if chronic immunosuppression coupled with near normal glycaemia did improve native pancreatic C-peptide production, the magnitude of the effect was quite small.Some native pancreatic beta cell function persists even years after disease onset in most type 1 diabetic patients. However, if prolonged euglycaemia plus anti-rejection immunosuppressive therapy improves native pancreatic insulin production, the effect in our participants was small. We may have underestimated pancreatic regenerative capacity by studying only a limited number of participants or by creating conditions (e.g. high circulating insulin concentrations or immunosuppressive agents toxic to beta cells) that impair beta cell function.

Abstract

The Saxagliptin Assessment of Vascular Outcomes Recorded in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus ( SAVOR)- Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction ( TIMI) 53 trial randomized trial of 16 492 patients (placebo, n = 8212; saxagliptin, n = 8280) treated and followed for a median of 2.1 years afforded an opportunity to explore whether there was any association with cancer reported as a serious adverse event. At least one cancer event was reported by 688 patients (4.1%): 362 (4.3%) and 326 (3.8%) in the placebo and saxagliptin arms, respectively (p = 0.13). There were 59 (0.6%) deaths adjudicated as malignancy deaths with placebo and 53 (0.6%) with saxagliptin. Stratification by gender, age, race and ethnicity, diabetes duration, baseline glycated haemoglobin and pharmacotherapy did not show any clinically meaningful differences between the two study arms. The overall number of cancer events and malignancy-associated mortality rates were generally balanced between the placebo and saxagliptin groups, suggesting a null relationship with saxagliptin use over the median follow-up of 2.1 years. Multivariable modelling showed that male gender, dyslipidaemia and current smoking were independent predictors of cancer. These randomized data with adequate numbers of cancer cases are reassuring but limited, by the short follow-up in a trial not designed to test this hypothesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

39. Efficacy and Toxicity of a Protocol Using Sirolimus, Tacrolimus and Daclizumab in a Nonhuman Primate Renal Allotransplant Model

Abstract

A regimen combining sirolimus, tacrolimus, and daclizumab has recently been shown to provide adequate immunosuppression for allogeneic islet transplantation in humans, but remains unproven for primarily vascularized allografts. We evaluated this regimen for renal allograft transplantation in mismatched nonhuman primates. Dosages of sirolimus and tacrolimus were adjusted for trough levels of 10-15 ng/mL and 4-6 ng/mL, respectively. Treated monkeys (n = 5) had significantly prolonged allograft survival, with a mean survival of 36 days vs. 7 days in untreated controls (n = 6, p = 0.008). Four of five treated animals, but none of the controls, developed fibrinoid vascular necrosis of the small intestine. A review of gut histology from animals on other immunosuppressive protocols performed by our laboratory suggested that these lesions were a result of sirolimus exposure. In summary, this regimen prolongs the survival of vascularized renal allografts, but is limited by profound GI toxicity in rhesus macaques.

48. Accelerating Molecular Dynamics through Informed Resetting.

Author

Church JR, Blumer O, Keidar TD, Ploutno L, Reuveni S, and Hirshberg B

Abstract

We present a procedure for enhanced sampling of molecular dynamics simulations through informed stochastic resetting. Many phenomena, such as protein folding and crystal nucleation, occur over time scales inaccessible in standard simulations. We recently showed that stochastic resetting can accelerate molecular simulations that exhibit broad transition time distributions. However, standard stochastic resetting does not exploit any information about the reaction progress. For a model system and chignolin in explicit water, we demonstrate that an informed resetting protocol leads to greater accelerations than standard stochastic resetting in molecular dynamics and Metadynamics simulations. This is achieved by resetting only when a certain condition is met, e.g., when the distance from the target along the reaction coordinate is larger than some threshold. We use these accelerated simulations to infer important kinetic observables such as the unbiased mean first-passage time and direct transit time. For the latter, Metadynamics with informed resetting leads to speedups of 2-3 orders of magnitude over unbiased simulations with relative errors of only ∼35-70%. Our work significantly extends the applicability of stochastic resetting for enhanced sampling of molecular simulations.

49. Inference of non-exponential kinetics through stochastic resetting.

Author

Blumer O, Reuveni S, and Hirshberg B

Abstract

We present an inference scheme of long timescale, non-exponential kinetics from molecular dynamics simulations accelerated by stochastic resetting. Standard simulations provide valuable insight into chemical processes but are limited to timescales shorter than ∼1μs. Slower processes require the use of enhanced sampling methods to expedite them and inference schemes to obtain the unbiased kinetics. However, most kinetics inference schemes assume an underlying exponential first-passage time distribution and are inappropriate for other distributions, e.g., with a power-law decay. We propose an inference scheme that is designed for such cases, based on simulations enhanced by stochastic resetting. We show that resetting promotes enhanced sampling of the first-passage time distribution at short timescales but often also provides sufficient information to estimate the long-time asymptotics, which allows the kinetics inference. We apply our method to a model system and a peptide in an explicit solvent, successfully estimating the unbiased mean first-passage time while accelerating the sampling by more than an order of magnitude., (© 2024 Author(s).

50. i-PI 3.0: A flexible and efficient framework for advanced atomistic simulations.

Abstract

Atomic-scale simulations have progressed tremendously over the past decade, largely thanks to the availability of machine-learning interatomic potentials. These potentials combine the accuracy of electronic structure calculations with the ability to reach extensive length and time scales. The i-PI package facilitates integrating the latest developments in this field with advanced modeling techniques thanks to a modular software architecture based on inter-process communication through a socket interface. The choice of Python for implementation facilitates rapid prototyping but can add computational overhead. In this new release, we carefully benchmarked and optimized i-PI for several common simulation scenarios, making such overhead negligible when i-PI is used to model systems up to tens of thousands of atoms using widely adopted machine learning interatomic potentials, such as Behler-Parinello, DeePMD, and MACE neural networks. We also present the implementation of several new features, including an efficient algorithm to model bosonic and fermionic exchange, a framework for uncertainty quantification to be used in conjunction with machine-learning potentials, a communication infrastructure that allows for deeper integration with electronic-driven simulations, and an approach to simulate coupled photon-nuclear dynamics in optical or plasmonic cavities., (© 2024 Author(s).
