Abstract

Background Diabetes control is poor globally and leads to burdensome microvascular and macrovascular complications. We aimed to assess post hoc between-group differences in sustained risk factor control and macrovascular and microvascular endpoints at 6.5 years in the Center for cArdiovascular Risk Reduction in South Asia (CARRS) randomized trial. Methods and findings This parallel group individual randomized clinical trial was performed at 10 outpatient diabetes clinics in India and Pakistan from January 2011 through September 2019. A total of 1,146 patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (HbA1c [greater than or equal to]8% and systolic BP [greater than or equal to]140 mm Hg and/or LDL-cholesterol [greater than or equal to]130 mg/dL) were randomized to a multicomponent quality improvement (QI) strategy (trained nonphysician care coordinator to facilitate care for patients and clinical decision support system for physicians) or usual care. At 2.5 years, compared to usual care, those receiving the QI strategy were significantly more likely to achieve multiple risk factor control. Six clinics continued, while 4 clinics discontinued implementing the QI strategy for an additional 4-year follow-up (overall median 6.5 years follow-up). In this post hoc analysis, using intention-to-treat, we examined between-group differences in multiple risk factor control (HbA1c Conclusions In urban South Asian clinics, a multicomponent QI strategy led to sustained multiple risk factor control and between-group differences in microvascular, but not macrovascular, endpoints. Between-group reductions in vascular outcomes at 6.5 years were observed only at sites that continued the QI intervention, suggesting that practice change needs to be maintained for better population health of people with diabetes.

Abstract

Recent advances in condensed matter physics have shown that the valley degree of freedom of electrons in 2D materials with hexagonal symmetry, such as graphene, h-BN, and TMDs, can be efficiently exploited, leading to the emergent field of valleytronics, which offers unique opportunities for efficient data transfer, computing and storage. The ability to couple the valley degree of freedom of electrons with light can further expand the ways one manipulate this degree of freedom, thus envisioning a new class of solid-state-photonic interfaces and devices. Besides this expansion of control of valley by light-waves, coupling of photons with valley-polarized electrons can dramatically expand the landscape of available optical responses, which may bring new means of controlling light in photonic devices. In this work we design such hybrid solid-state photonic metasurface integrating 2D TMD and photonic all-dielectric metasurface. While TMD is naturally endowed with the property of valley to optical-polarization coupling, the photonic metasurface is designed to produce chiral field which selectively couples to the valley degree of freedom of solid-state TMD component. We experimentally demonstrate that such coupling leads to controlled valley polarization due to the coupling of 2D materials with the chiral photonic metasurface. The measured emission from valley excitons in this hybrid system yields the preferential emission of specific helicity., Comment: 5 figures

Abstract

We study radiative energy transfer between a donor-acceptor pair across a hyperbolic metamaterial slab. We show that similar to a perfect lens a hyperbolic lens allows for giant energy transfer rates. For a realistic realization of a hyperbolic multilayer metamaterial we find an enhancement of up to three orders of magnitude with respect to the transfer rates across a plasmonic silver film of the same size especially for frequencies which coincide with the epsilon-near zero and the epsilonnear pole frequencies. Furthermore, we compare exact results based on the S-matrix method with results obtained from effective medium theory.

Abstract

Feral cats (Felis catus) pose a significant global threat to biodiversity, primarily through predation, disease and competition. A key gap in parameterizing models for improving management decisions for feral cat control relates to factors that drive feral cat survival and movement in the wild. Our study objective was to conduct the first continental-scale analysis of survival rates and displacement distances for feral cats. We collated data on 528 feral cats from telemetry studies in naturally-vegetated landscapes across Australia. Using Cox-proportional hazards models, we investigated the effects of sex, presence of larger predators (dingoes, Canis familiaris and introduced foxes, Vulpes vulpes), presence of introduced prey (rabbits, Oryctolagus cuniculus), body mass, landscape productivity and feral cat density on feral cat survival. We also analysed the effects of sex, body mass and landscape productivity on feral cat displacement using linear mixed model analysis. Feral cat survival was positively associated with presence of dingoes and increasing body mass, whereas there was no clear association between feral cat survival and sex, presence of rabbits, or cat density. Presence of foxes had a strong negative effect on feral cat survival, but the hazard ratio was associated with considerable uncertainty. Net displacement of male feral cats was nearly two times further than that of females, and the proportion of feral cats making long-distance movements was greater in landscapes with low productivity. Increasing body mass of feral cats was positively related to net displacement, with heavier cats moving further. Analysis of metadata from telemetry studies can provide valuable insights into wildlife survival rates and movement behaviour. Our findings will help inform the development of effective management strategies and improve feral cat management for biodiversity conservation.

Abstract

Hyperbolic Metamaterials (HMMs) have recently garnered much attention because they possess the ability for broadband manipulation of the photon density of states and sub-wavelength light confinement. These exceptional properties arise due to the excitation of electromagnetic states with high momentum (high-k modes). However, a major hindrance to practical applications of HMMs is the difficulty in coupling light out of these modes because they become evanescent at the surface of the metamaterial. Here we report the first demonstration of out-coupling of high-k modes in an active HMM using a high-index contrast bulls-eye grating. Quantum dots embedded inside the metamaterial are used for local excitation of high-k modes. This demonstration of light out-coupling from quantum dots embedded in a HMM could pave the way for developing practical photonic devices using these systems.

Abstract

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) represent a formidable challenge for psychiatry and neuroscience because of their high prevalence, lifelong nature, complexity and substantial heterogeneity. Facing these obstacles requires large-scale multidisciplinary efforts. Although the field of genetics has pioneered data sharing for these reasons, neuroimaging had not kept pace. In response, we introduce the Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE)-a grassroots consortium aggregating and openly sharing 1112 existing resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R-fMRI) data sets with corresponding structural MRI and phenotypic information from 539 individuals with ASDs and 573 age-matched typical controls (TCs; 7-64 years) (http://fcon_1000.projects.nitrc.org/indi/abide/). Here, we present this resource and demonstrate its suitability for advancing knowledge of ASD neurobiology based on analyses of 360 male subjects with ASDs and 403 male age-matched TCs. We focused on whole-brain intrinsic functional connectivity and also survey a range of voxel-wise measures of intrinsic functional brain architecture. Whole-brain analyses reconciled seemingly disparate themes of both hypo- and hyperconnectivity in the ASD literature; both were detected, although hypoconnectivity dominated, particularly for corticocortical and interhemispheric functional connectivity. Exploratory analyses using an array of regional metrics of intrinsic brain function converged on common loci of dysfunction in ASDs (mid- and posterior insula and posterior cingulate cortex), and highlighted less commonly explored regions such as the thalamus. The survey of the ABIDE R-fMRI data sets provides unprecedented demonstrations of both replication and novel discovery. By pooling multiple international data sets, ABIDE is expected to accelerate the pace of discovery setting the stage for the next generation of ASD studies.

Abstract

The present study was carried out with the objective to detect Listeria monocytogenes from raw milk and chicken meat. Two hundred samples of raw milk and chicken meat were obtained from local dairy farms and retail outlets, respectively in Thrissur, Kerala. These samples were enriched primarily in University of Vermont Medium-I (UVM I) broth, followed by further enrichment in UVM II broth. Subsequently, the enriched samples were streaked onto PALCAM agar for further analysis. Simultaneously, the samples were directly screened for presence of L. monocytogenes by PCR and real time PCR. Bacterial cultures that exhibited standard colony features were subsequently identified at the species level through the phenotypic tests. The isolates obtained were subjected to molecular confirmation, specifically targeting hlyA gene using conventional PCR and real time PCR. Additionally, the isolates were subjected to antibiotic sensitivity test. The overall occurrence of L. monocytogenes was 1.5 per cent, with two and one isolate being recovered from milk and meat, respectively. However, the occurrence was determined to be three per cent by PCR and real time PCR respectively. The identification of L. monocytogenes in raw milk and chicken meat highlights the importance to enforce adequate sanitation and hygiene measures in the food chain in order to protect the health of consumers.

23. J/\psi suppression at forward rapidity as a potential probe for QGP formation in colour screening scenario

Abstract

In order to study the properties of $J/\psi$ (1S) in the deconfining medium, we extend our previous formalism [Phys. Lett. B {\bf 656}, 45 (2007)] on $J/\psi$ suppression at mid-rapidity using the colour screening framework. Our formalism is more general as the complete rapidity, transverse momentum and centrality dependence including $J/\psi$ suppression at forward as well as mid-rapidity can be computed directly from it. Careful attention is paid to the role of the medium's proper time in determining the locus of the screening region where $J/\psi$ gets suppressed. Other important ingredients in the calculation are bag model equation of state for QGP, the longitudinal expansion of the QGP fluid obeying Bjorken's boost invariant scaling law and non-sequential/sequential melting of $\chi_c$ (1P) as well as $\psi^{'}$ (2S) higher resonances. Upon comparison with the recent data of PHENIX collaboration on $J/\psi$ suppression at forward and mid-rapidity regions, we find that our model shows a reasonable agreement with the data without incorporating any sequential decay mechanism of higher charmonia states. Furthermore, we observe a larger suppression at forward rapidity in our model which is again well supported by the PHENIX data and also gives a hint that a scenario based on directly produced $J/\psi$'s is preferable., Comment: 18 pages, 6 figures, revised version

Abstract

In the article by M. G. Mustafa published in Phys. Rev. C {\bf 72}, 014905 (2005) the author has estimated the total energy loss of a charm quark and quenching of hadron spectra due to the collisional energy loss of energetic partons in an expanding quark-gluon plasma employing Fokker-Planck equation. We wish to point out through this Comment that some of conceptual and numerical results of the said paper are unreliable. For the sake of clarity our discussion will focus on the massless case (although a few remarks on the $m\neq 0$ case are also made)., Comment: 5 pages, No figure

Abstract

We have modified the colour screening theory of Chu and Matsui by properly incorporating bag model equation of state for quark gluon plasma (QGP). We have also chosen the pressure parametrization rather than parametrizing energy density in the transverse plane. We assume that the QGP dense medium is expanding in the longitudinal direction obeying Bjorken boost invariant scaling law. Sequential melting of $\chi_c$, $\psi^{'}$ and $J/\psi$ is also considered in this scenario. We have applied above formulation to the recent PHENIX experimental data of $J/\psi$ suppression in Au + Au collisions at RHIC. We find that the model gives a good description of data at mid-rapidity in terms of survival probability versus number of participants without any necessity of implementing (3+1)-dimensional expansion of the deconfined medium., Comment: 13 pages, 2 figures

26. Partial wave interference mechanism in gluonic dissociation of $J/\psi$

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
Abstract

We explicitly take into account the effect of hydrodynamic expansion profile on the gluonic breakup of $J/\psi$'s produced in an equilibrating parton plasma. Attention is paid to the space-time inhomogeneities as well as Lorentz frames while deriving new expressions for the gluon number density $n_g$, average dissociation rate $<\tilde{\Gamma}>$, and $\psi$ survival probability $S$. A novel type of partial wave {\em interference} mechanism is found to operate in the formula of $<\tilde{\Gamma}>$. Nonrelativistic longitudinal expansion fro small length of the initial cylinder is found to push the $S(p_T)$ graph above the no flow case considered by us earlier \cite{rev1}. However, relativistic flow corresponding to large length of the initial cylinder pushes the curve of $S(p_T)$ downwards at LHC but upwards at RHIC. This mutually different effect on $S(p_T)$ may be attributed to the different initial temperatures generated at LHC and RHIC., Comment: Talk given at DAE 2006, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur, Dec 11-15, 2006; 4 pages with 3 figures

Abstract

BACKGROUND Bempedoic acid, an ATP citrate lyase inhibitor, reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and is associated with a low incidence of muscle-related adverse events; its effects on cardiovascular outcomes remain uncertain. METHODS We conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving patients who were unable or unwilling to take statins owing to unacceptable adverse effects (“statin-intolerant” patients) and had, or were at high risk for, cardiovascular disease. The patients were assigned to receive oral bempedoic acid, 180 mg daily, or placebo. The primary end point was a four-component composite of major adverse cardiovascular events, defined as death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or coronary revascularization. RESULTS A total of 13,970 patients underwent randomization; 6992 were assigned to the bempedoic acid group and 6978 to the placebo group. The median duration of follow-up was 40.6 months. The mean LDL cholesterol level at baseline was 139.0 mg per deciliter in both groups, and after 6 months, the reduction in the level was greater with bempedoic acid than with placebo by 29.2 mg per deciliter; the observed difference in the percent reductions was 21.1 percentage points in favor of bempedoic acid. The incidence of a primary end-point event was significantly lower with bempedoic acid than with placebo (819 patients [11.7%] vs. 927 [13.3%]; hazard ratio, 0.87; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79 to 0.96; P=0.004), as were the incidences of a composite of death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal stroke, or nonfatal myocardial infarction (575 [8.2%] vs. 663 [9.5%]; hazard ratio, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.76 to 0.96; P=0.006); fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction (261 [3.7%] vs. 334 [4.8%]; hazard ratio, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.66 to 0.91; P=0.002); and coronary revascularization (435 [6.2%] vs. 529 [7.6%]; hazard ratio, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.72 to 0.92; P=0.001). Bempedoic acid had no significant effects on fatal or nonfatal stroke, death from cardiovascular causes, and death from any cause. The incidences of gout and cholelithiasis were higher with bempedoic acid than with placebo (3.1% vs. 2.1% and 2.2% vs. 1.2%, respectively), as were the incidences of small increases in serum creatinine, uric acid, and hepatic-enzyme levels. CONCLUSIONS Among statin-intolerant patients, treatment with bempedoic acid was associated with a lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or coronary revascularization).

Abstract

In a recent paper [Eur. Phys. J {\bf C 44}, 567 (2005)] we developed a very general formulation to take into account explicitly the effects of hydrodynamic flow profile on the gluonic breakup of $J/\psi$'s produced in an equilibrating quark-gluon plasma. Here we apply that formulation to the case when the medium is undergoing cylindrically symmetric {\it transverse} expansion starting from RHIC or LHC initial conditions. Our algebraic and numerical estimates demonstrate that the transverse expansion causes enhancement of local gluon number density $\ng$, affects the $\pt$-dependence of the average dissociation rate $\tilg$ through a partial-wave interference mechanism, and makes the survival probability $\spt$ to change with $\pt$ very slowly. Compared to the previous case of longitudinal expansion the new graph of $\spt$ is pushed up at LHC, but develops a rich structure at RHIC, due to a competition between the transverse catch-up time and plasma lifetime., Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures

29. $J/\psi$ Gluonic Dissociation Revisited : II. Hydrodynamic Expansion Effects

Abstract

We explicitly take into account the effect of hydrodynamic expansion profile on the gluonic breakup of $J/\psi$'s produced in an equilibrating parton plasma. Attention is paid to the space-time inhomogeneities as well as Lorentz frames while deriving new expressions for the gluon number density $n_g$, average dissociation rate $<\tilde{\Gamma}>$, and $\psi$ survival probability $S$. A novel type of partial wave {\em interference} mechanism is found to operate in the formula of $<\tilde{\Gamma}>$. Nonrelativistic longitudinal expansion fro small length of the initial cylinder is found to push the $S(p_T)$ graph above the no flow case considered by us earlier \cite{rev1}. However, relativistic flow corresponding to large length of the initial cylinder pushes the curve of $S(p_T)$ downwards at LHC but upwards at RHIC. This mutually different effect on $S(p_T)$ may be attributed to the different initial temperatures generated at LHC and RHIC., Comment: 25 pages, 10 figures

Abstract

We revisit the standard treatment [Xu, Kharzeev, Satz and Wang, Phys. Rev. C {\bf 53}, 3051 (1996)] of $J/\psi$ suppression due to gluonic bombardment in an equilibrating quark-gluon plasma. Effects arising from gluon fugacity, relative $g-\psi$ flux, and $\psi$ meson formation time are correctly incorporated in the formulation of the gluon number density, velocity-weighted cross section, and the survival probability. Our new formulae are applied to numerically study the pattern of $J/\psi$ suppression in the central rapidity region at RHIC/LHC energies. The temperature and transverse momentum dependence of our graphs have noticeable differences from those of Xu et al., Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures

Abstract

We consider the Brownian motion of a $c \bar c$ pair produced in the very early satge of a quark-gluon plasma. The one-dimensional Langevin equation is solved formally to get purely mechanical properties at small and large times. Stochastically-averaged variances are examined to extract the time scales associated with swelling and ionization of the bound state. Simple numerical estimates of the time scales are compared with other mechanisms of $J/\psi$ suppression., Comment: 18 pages with a figure

Abstract

This is a short review on the thermal, spectral representation in the real-time version of the finite temperature quantum field theory. After presenting a clear derivation of the spectral representation, we discuss the properties of its spectral function. Two applications of this representation are then considered. One is the solution of the Dyson equation for the thermal propagator. The other is the formulation of the QCD sum rules at finite temperature., Comment: Changed content, added figures.

Abstract

It is pointed out that for a general short-ranged potential the Lippmann-Schwinger-Low scattering state $|\psi^L_k>$ does not strictly satisfy the Schrodinger eigen equation, and the pair $|\psi^L_n>$, $|\psi^L_k>$ is mutually nonorthogonal if $E_n=E_k$. For this purpose, we carefully use an infinitesimal adiabatic parameter $\epsilon$, a nonlinear relation among transition amplitudes, and a separable interaction as illustration., Comment: 9 pages (modified version)

Abstract

We have examined the efficiency of baryon-number transport mechanism across the phase boundary in a cosmological quark-hadron phase transition through the proper estimate of baryon-number penetrability $<\Sigma_h>$. For this purpose we have derived first the double-pair creation probability $P_b$ in terms of single-pair creation probabilty per unit time and unit volume $\kappa_m$ and then obtained an analytical expression for $<\Sigma_h >$. Our calculation is free from the uncertainty of the value of double-pair creation probability per unit time and unit volume $\kappa_b$ which was used as a free parameter in earlier calculations. Finally the variations of double-pair creation probability $P_b$ as well as $<\Sigma_h>$ with temperature are shown and compared with other known results., Comment: 18 pages LaTeX including five figures in eps format

43. Aberrant emotional prosody circuitry predicts social communication impairments in children with autism

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, Background: Emotional prosody provides acoustical cues that reflect a communication partner’s emotional state and is crucial for successful social interactions. Many children with autism have deficits in recognizing emotions from voices; however, the neural basis for these impairments is unknown. We examined brain circuit features underlying emotional prosody processing deficits and their relationship to clinical symptoms of autism. Methods: We used an event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging task to measure neural activity and connectivity during processing of sad and happy emotional prosody and neutral speech in 22 children with autism and 21 matched control children (7-12 years old). We employed functional connectivity analyses to test competing theoretical accounts that attribute emotional prosody impairments to either sensory processing deficits in auditory cortex or theory of mind deficits instantiated in the temporoparietal junction (TPJ). Results: Children with autism showed specific behavioral impairments for recognizing emotions from voices. They also showed aberrant functional connectivity between voice-sensitive auditory cortex and the bilateral TPJ during emotional prosody processing. Neural activity in the bilateral TPJ during processing of both sad and happy emotional prosody stimuli was associated with social communication impairments in children with autism. In contrast, activity and decoding of emotional prosody in auditory cortex was comparable between autism and control groups and did not predict social communication impairments. Conclusions: Our findings support a social-cognitive deficit model of autism by identifying a role for TPJ dysfunction during emotional prosody processing. Our study underscores the importance of tuning in to vocal-emotional cues for building social connections in children with autism., 11 p.

44. Neural decoding of emotional prosody in voice-sensitive auditory cortex predicts social communication abilities in children

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, During social interactions, speakers signal information about their emotional state through their voice, which is known as emotional prosody. Little is known regarding the precise brain systems underlying emotional prosody decoding in children and whether accurate neural decoding of these vocal cues is linked to social skills. Here, we address critical gaps in the developmental literature by investigating neural representations of prosody and their links to behavior in children. Multivariate pattern analysis revealed that representations in the bilateral middle and posterior superior temporal sulcus (STS) divisions of voice-sensitive auditory cortex decode emotional prosody information in children. Crucially, emotional prosody decoding in middle STS was correlated with standardized measures of social communication abilities; more accurate decoding of prosody stimuli in the STS was predictive of greater social communication abilities in children. Moreover, social communication abilities were specifically related to decoding sadness, highlighting the importance of tuning in to negative emotional vocal cues for strengthening social responsiveness and functioning. Findings bridge an important theoretical gap by showing that the ability of the voice-sensitive cortex to detect emotional cues in speech is predictive of a child’s social skills, including the ability to relate and interact with others., 20 p.
