Abstract:

The following Schiff bases have been synthesized: (1) 4-(2-chlorobenzylidene)amino benzoic acid JP1, (2) 4 (furan-2-ylmethylene)amino benzoic acid JP2, (3) 4-[(3-phenylallylidene)amino]benzoic acid JP3, (4) 4 (2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino benzoic acid JP4, (5) 4 (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino benzoic acid JP5 and (6) 4 (3-nitrobenzylidene)amino benzoic acid JP6. They were screened as potential antibacterial agents against a number of medically important bacterial strains. The antibacterial activity was studied against A. faecalis ATCC 8750, E. aerogenes ATCC 13048, E. coli ATCC 25922, K. pneumoniae NCIM 2719 S. aureus ATCC 25923, P. vulgaris NCIM 8313, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and S. typhimurium ATCC 23564. The antibacterial activity was evaluated using the Agar Ditch method. The solvents used were 1,4-dioxane and dimethyl sulfoxide. Different effects of the compounds were found in the bacterial strains in vestigated and the solvents used, suggesting, once again, that the antibacterial activity is dependent on the molecular structure of the compound, the solvent used and the bacterial strain under consideration. In the present work, 1,4-dioxane proved to be a good solvent in inhibiting the above stated bacterial strains.

Abstract:

This article examines the role of the European Union's (EU) Joint Parliamentary Assembly (JPA) with the Africa-Caribbean-Pacific (ACP) group of states. Bringing together 105 countries from four different continents and characterized by a more than forty-five-year long continuity and a high degree of institutionalization, the JPA is a unique institution in the EU's network of inter-parliamentary diplomacy. Despite its increased importance in the past decade, the role of the JPA remains understudied in academic literature. The analytical framework for examining this role consists of two parts. While the first part is based on a document analysis and expert interviews, the second part investigates the JPA members' own role conceptions by means of semi-structured interviews with delegates from the European Parliament and national ACP parliaments. We argue that the role of the JPA is (1) to advocate the empowerment of the ACP national parliaments, (2) to socialize parliamentarians towards a democratic culture, and (3) to monitor the implementation of the Cotonou agreement. The conclusion reads that, while the role of the JPA has been strongly extended, there are some serious endogenous and exogenous problems that have a major impact on its activities and its influence.

Abstract:

In 2014, the European Joint Procurement Agreement (JPA) was introduced as an innovative instrument to organise the procurement of vaccines and medications in preparation for pandemics. An overriding purpose of the JPA is to secure equitable and cost-effective access to medical supplies for participating EU Member States during serious health crises. This article aims to understand the current use of the JPA in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Post-analysis of the recent use of the JPA, the article will discuss how the regional procurement mechanism can be strengthened to support the development of a European Health Union. In particular, the article will firstly question whether the four recent JPA procurement actions facilitated equitable access to medical supplies and services. Secondly, it will ask whether the centralised procurement actions preserved the integrity of the Internal Market. The importance and originality of this study are that it addresses an instrument, the JPA, which has been largely overlooked by legal scholars, and it explores how the provisions for the joint procurement of medical countermeasures as included in Article 5 of Decision 1082/2013/EU on serious cross-border threats to health could be extended to support the functioning of a European Health Union.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVEPrimarily metastatic juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA) is rare, likely representing 2%–3% of all cases of JPA. Due to the rarity of primarily metastatic JPA, there is currently no standard treatment paradigm and the long-term outcomes are not fully known. The goal of this case series was to add to the current understanding of this disease process.METHODSThe authors searched a comprehensive database of pediatric patients with brain and spinal cord tumors treated at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital from 1997 to 2016 and identified 5 patients with primarily metastatic JPA. A retrospective chart review was performed and details of the patients’ treatment and clinical course were recorded for further analysis.RESULTSFor the 5 patients with primarily metastatic JPA, the mean follow-up period was 12.3 years. All patients in our series had biopsies or subtotal resections and upfront treatment. Three patients were treated with chemotherapy alone, one was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and one was treated with radiotherapy alone. Four patients had stable disease after initial treatment, and one patient had multiple episodes of progressive disease but underwent successful salvage therapy and has had stable disease for 19 years. One patient died of an intracerebral hemorrhage 10 years following initial radiation treatment believed to be secondary to radiation vasculopathy.CONCLUSIONSEvaluation of the entire neuraxis should be performed in all instances of initial JPA diagnosis to properly assess for primarily metastatic disease. Many patients with primarily metastatic JPA will have stable disease after upfront treatment, although the higher rate of stable disease found in this series relative to other reports is likely secondary to the small sample size.

Abstract:

Extracting metabolic features from liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data has been a long-standing bioinformatic challenge in untargeted metabolomics. Conventional feature extraction algorithms fail to recognize features with low signal intensities, poor chromatographic peak shapes, or those that do not fit the parameter settings. This problem also poses a challenge for MS-based exposome studies, as low-abundant metabolic or exposomic features cannot be automatically recognized from raw data. To address this data processing challenge, we developed an R package, JPA (short for Joint Metabolomic Data Processing and Annotation), to comprehensively extract metabolic features from raw LC-MS data. JPA performs feature extraction by combining a conventional peak picking algorithm and strategies for (1) recognizing features with bad peak shapes but that have tandem mass spectra (MS2) and (2) picking up features from a user-defined targeted list. The performance of JPA in global metabolomics was demonstrated using serial diluted urine samples, in which JPA was able to rescue an average of 25% of metabolic features that were missed by the conventional peak picking algorithm due to dilution. More importantly, the chromatographic peak shapes, analytical accuracy, and precision of the rescued metabolic features were all evaluated. Furthermore, owing to its sensitive feature extraction, JPA was able to achieve a limit of detection (LOD) that was up to thousands of folds lower when automatically processing metabolomics data of a serial diluted metabolite standard mixture analyzed in HILIC(−) and RP(+) modes. Finally, the performance of JPA in exposome research was validated using a mixture of 250 drugs and 255 pesticides at environmentally relevant levels. JPA detected an average of 2.3-fold more exposure compounds than conventional peak picking only.

Abstract:

Introdução: Este estudo avaliou a influência do jateamento com partículas abrasivas (JPA) na resistência adesiva por cisalhamento (σS) entre uma cerâmica à base de zircônia (Y-TZP) e uma resina composta, testando a hipótese de que diferentes parâmetros de JPA afetam significativamente a σS. Métodos: Espécimes de Y-TZP foram tratados com JPA utilizando partículas de alumina aplicadas perpendicularmente à superfície a uma distância de 10 mm, variando um dos seguintes parâmetros: tamanho de partícula (45 e 110 μm), tempo de aplicação (10 e 20 s), e pressão (36 e 58 psi). Amostras de Y-TZP não tratadas foram usadas como controle. Cilindros de resina composta foram colados na superfície, que foi inicialmente tratada com um primer cerâmico (RelyX Ceramic Primer), utilizando um cimento resinoso autoadesivo (RelyX U100). As amostras foram armazenadas em água destilada por 24 h a 37oC, e testadas para σS. Os resultados de σS foram calculados (em MPa) e analisados estatisticamente (α = 0,05). Os padrões de superfície criados pelos tratamentos com JPA foram observados em microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Resultados: Os valores de σS foram significativamente menores para o grupo controle do que todos os grupos tratados com JPA (p <0,05). Os resultados foram influenciados pelo tamanho da partícula, enquanto o tempo e a pressão não tiveram efeito significativo. O JPA usando partículas de 45 μm promoveu σS significativamente maior do que usando partículas de 110 μm com tempo de 10 s ou 36 psi de pressão (p <0,05). Não foram encontradas diferenças entre os tamanhos das partículas ao usar maior tempo (20 s) ou pressão (58 psi). Conclusão: O JPA com partículas de alumina de menor tamanho tende a produzir maiores valores de σS para uma cerâmica Y-TZP em união com resina composta, confirmando parcialmente a hipótese do estudo.

Abstract:

✓ Little is known about the risk of developing multicentric disease in patients with juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA), and even less about its prognosis. Only five cases have been reported. Between 1986 and 1992, the authors treated 90 patients with either primary or recurrent JPA, 11 of whom developed multicentric spread. Ten patients had primary tumors in the hypothalamic region, eight were under 4 years of age at initial diagnosis, all had initially undergone a subtotal resection or biopsy, and 10 received postoperative multiagent chemotherapy or irradiation for residual disease. Multicentric spread was discovered immediately to 108 months after initial diagnosis; nine patients were asymptomatic at the time. Most patients received chemotherapy for the multicentric disease, which was found throughout the craniospinal axis. During 21 to 148 months of follow-up monitoring, seven patients had stabilization or regression of multicentric disease and four died. Patients with hypothalamic region tumors were 23 times more likely to develop multicentric spread than were those with primary tumors located elsewhere (p < 0.001). Based on this review, it is concluded that multicentric spread of JPA occurs more frequently than was previously recognized. In patients with subtotally resected JPA and several years of follow-up review via magnetic resonance imaging, the incidence of recurrence in a site different from the original was 12%. Patients with subtotally resected JPA in the hypothalamic region should be considered to be at high risk for developing multicentric spread. Chemotherapy appears useful in stabilizing multicentric disease. Earlier detection and intervention may result in longer disease-free survival in patients with multicentric spread of JPA.

Abstract:

The authors report on a case of juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA) and concomitant hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) with gelastic epilepsy that was successfully treated with endoscopic disconnection. This 6-year-old girl presented with prolonged, medically intractable gelastic seizures that were often followed by generalized tonic seizures. An enhancing, low-grade hypothalamic tumor was identified on MR images obtained when she was 11 months old, but no surgical intervention was attempted at that time apart from bur hole drainage of a chronic subdural hemorrhage. In the first surgery, performed when she was 6 years of age, the authors attempted disconnection and tumor sampling; the lesion was revealed to be a JPA. A second endoscopic disconnection was performed 1 year later to improve seizure control and obtain a pathological specimen from the nonenhancing contralateral side. The pathological results after the second surgery revealed that the enhancing mass was a spontaneously regressing JPA and the contralateral nonenhancing mass was an HH. The HH was found as latent tumor and the JPA was the mass causing gelastic epilepsy. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with a spontaneously regressing JPA and concomitant HH, both of which were treated by endoscopic disconnection.

Abstract:

In the field of real-time multiprocessor scheduling, researchers have found that global scheduling on average results in better resource utilization than partitioned scheduling, and is more robust in the presence of timing errors. In this paper, we present a global scheduling algorithm JPA with Job-level Priority Assignment for sporadic task systems that can be viewed as a generalization of both FPS and EDF. We also introduce JPA's efficient variant, which greatly reduces the runtime overhead comparing with JPA. As will be shown by the experiments, JPA indeed exhibits much better performance than the state-of-the-art multiprocessor scheduling/analysis techniques based on FPS and EDF.

Abstract:

Abstract This article presents a critical edition of three Aramaic piyyutim for Purim. The piyyutim are unique in that they were not written in Hebrew, the overwhelmingly dominant language of classical piyyutim, but in a biblicizing register of Aramaic. This puts these piyyutim in conversation with other forms of Jewish Aramaic poetry, namely poems written in Jewish Palestinian Aramaic (JPA). The article includes a detailed analysis of the relation between the JPA poems for Purim and the piyyutim presented herein, and it argues that overt anti-Christian polemics are common to both. The Aramaic piyyutim presented here thus provide a unique nexus between JPA poetry and classical piyyut.

Abstract:

Aims: Chronic knee, hip and back pain is extremely prevalent. Management guidelines emphasise maintaining physical activity and healthy weight to reduce pain and improve physical and mental wellbeing. Unfortunately, few people receive support to make lifestyle changes. We evaluated whether a health trainer—led ‘joint pain advice’ (JPA) service delivering person-centred lifestyle coaching was feasible, acceptable and effective for people with knee, hip and back pain. Methods: Feasibility of delivering a JPA service was assessed by documenting whether the health trainers could deliver JPA and its uptake. Nine health trainers delivered JPA. Participants were offered up to four appointments. At each appointment, health trainers gave people information about their condition, co-developed care plans, suggested self-management strategies and used behavioural change techniques (motivational interviewing, goal-setting and action planning) to increase physical activity and reduce body weight. Pain, function, physical activity and body mass index (BMI) were collected at baseline, 3 weeks, 6 weeks and 6 months. Focus groups captured people’s opinions of the service’s effectiveness, acceptability and usefulness. Results: Of the 105 people who enquired about JPA, 85 (81%) used the service, after which their physical activity and function improved, and pain, use of analgesia and BMI decreased. They felt more knowledgeable and better motivated to adopt and maintain healthier behaviours. They attributed these improvements to the JPA service, because of its better consultations and collaborative holistic approach. Only a minority attended all four appointments because they felt they received sufficient advice from the initial appointments. The health trainers gained knowledge and skills to support clients with musculoskeletal conditions. Conclusions: Using a holistic, patient-centred approach, health trainers can deliver lifestyle advice to people with chronic knee, hip or back pain safely, effectively and efficiently. The service was popular with recipients and health trainers, and helped people adopt healthier lifestyles that lead to reduced pain and other clinical improvements.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Joint Procurement Agreement (JPA) is an innovative instrument for multi-country procurement of medical countermeasures against cross-border health threats. This paper aims to assess its potential performance. A literature review was conducted to identify key features of successful joint procurement programmes. Documentary analysis and a key informants’ interview were carried out to analyse the European Union (EU) JPA. Ownership, equity, transparency, stable central financing, standardisation, flexibility and gradual development were identified as important prerequisites for successful establishment of multi-country joint procurement programmes in the literature while security of supply, favourable prices, reduction of operational costs and administrative burden and creation of professional expert networks were identified as desirable outcomes. The EU JPA appears to fulfil the criteria of ownership, transparency, equity, flexibility and gradual development. Standardisation is only partly fulfilled and central EU level financing is not provided. Security of supply is an important outcome for all EU Member States (MS). Price savings, reduction in administrative burden and creation of professional networks may be particularly attractive for the smaller MS. The JPA has the potential to increase health system collaboration and efficiency at EU level provided that the incentives for sustained commitment of larger MS are sufficiently attractive.

Abstract:

Learning outcomes The case intends to achieve the following objectives with the audience: Apply the knowledge of fundamental analysis to select good companies for investment; analyse companies for investment through the contrarian strategy; and appreciate the need of own research before investing. Case overview/synopsis This case study provides an insight into the general process around investment for a retail investor. The protagonist of the case, Rajdeep Sharma, is a middle-class, salaried IT consultant from India. He has taken inspiration from Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, a renowned investor in India, and started his journey on the road to generate wealth. He decides to adopt the contrarian strategy and identifies Jaiprakash Associates Limited (JPA) to invest his savings. JPA is a large conglomerate with decades of experience, which has diversified business across multiple sectors. However, JPA’s pursuit of growth and expansion has created financial issues because of a large amount of debt it has amassed over the past few years. The company has been unable to repay its interest and principal obligations to the debt holders, making it consider a restructuring plan to meet these responsibilities. Meanwhile, Rajdeep has been optimistic about his investments but must experience excessive turmoil due to the high volatility in the company’s share prices. The case highlights the value of sound analysis, along with the impact of information on retail investors’ decision-making process. It will help prospective investors appreciate the importance of economic, sectoral and financial statement analysis before making any investments.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE The authors report the use of urinary biomarkers as a novel, noninvasive technique to detect juvenile pilocytic astrocytomas (JPAs), capable of distinguishing JPAs from other CNS diseases, including other brain tumors. Preliminary screening of an array of tumors implicated proteases (including matrix metalloproteinases [MMPs]) and their inhibitors (tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase [TIMPs]) as well as growth factors (including basic fibroblast growth factor [bFGF]) as candidate biomarkers. These data led the authors to hypothesize that tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP3) and bFGF would represent high-probability candidates as JPA-specific biomarkers. METHODS Urine was collected from 107 patients, which included children with JPA (n = 21), medulloblastoma (n = 17), glioblastoma (n = 9), arteriovenous malformations (n = 25), moyamoya (n = 14), and age- and sex-matched controls (n = 21). Biomarker levels were quantified with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, tumor tissue expression was confirmed with immunohistochemical analysis, and longitudinal biomarker expression was correlated with imaging. Results were subjected to univariate and multivariate statistical analyses. RESULTS Using optimal urinary cutoff values of bFGF > 1.0 pg/μg and TIMP3 > 3.5 pg/μg, multiplexing bFGF and TIMP3 predicts JPA presence with 98% accuracy. Multiplexing bFGF and MMP13 distinguishes JPA from other brain tumor subtypes with up to 98% accuracy. Urinary biomarker expression correlated with both tumor immunohistochemistry and in vitro tumor levels. Urinary bFGF and TIMP3 decrease following successful tumor treatment and correlate with changes in tumor size. CONCLUSIONS This study identifies 2 urinary biomarkers—bFGF and TIMP3—that successfully detect one of the most common pediatric brain tumors with high accuracy. These data highlight potential benefits of urinary biomarkers and support their utility as diagnostic tools in the treatment of children with JPA.

Abstract:

Abstract Juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA) is one of the most common brain tumors in children. The expression profiles of 21 JPAs, determined using Affymetrix GeneChip U133A, were compared with subjects with normal cerebella. The genes involved in neurogenesis, cell adhesion, synaptic transmission, central nervous system development, potassium ion transport, protein dephosphorylation, and cell differentiation were found to be significantly deregulated in JPA. These 21 JPAs were further clustered into two major groups by unsupervised hierarchical clustering using a set of 848 genes with high covariance (0.5-10). Supervised analysis with Significance Analysis of Microarrays software between these two potential subgroups identified a list of significant differentially expressed genes involved in cell adhesion, regulation of cell growth, cell motility, nerve ensheathment, and angiogenesis. Immunostaining of myelin basic protein on paraffin sections derived from 18 incompletely resected JPAs suggests that JPA without myelin basic protein–positively stained tumor cells may have a higher tendency to progress.

Abstract:

✓ Multiple metastatic brain tumors and multifocal primary brain tumors of a single histological type are well described in the literature. The concurrent presence of multiple primary brain tumors with different histological characteristics, however, is very rare. The authors describe the first known case in which an oligodendroglioma and a juvenile pilocytic astrocytoma (JPA) presented as synchronous primary brain tumors in the same patient. This 43-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of progressive headaches, nausea, and vomiting. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated an enhancing heterogeneous right medial cerebellar lesion and a larger calcified, nonenhancing, heterogeneous right frontal lesion with surrounding edema and a mass effect. The results of a metastatic workup were unremarkable. The patient underwent an initial right frontotemporal craniotomy and a subsequent suboccipital craniectomy 2 years later for resection of the posterior fossa lesion. Histological examination revealed the frontal and cerebellar lesions to be an oligodendroglioma and JPA, respectively. A molecular analysis detected a deletion of chromosome 1p36 in the oligodendroglioma, but not in the JPA. After the initial operation, the patient received follow-up care for his oligodendroglioma, but eventually required temozolomide for tumor progression. His condition remains stable both neurologically and according to imaging studies. The authors describe the first known case in which a low-grade oligodendroglioma and a JPA presented as synchronous primary brain tumors. They review the literature on multiple primary brain tumors with different histological characteristics and discuss potential mechanisms for the development of these lesions.

Abstract:

Global Navigation Satellite Systems’ (GNSS) carrier phase observations are fundamental in the provision of precise navigation for modern applications in intelligent transport systems. Differential precise positioning requires the use of a base station nearby the vehicle location, while attitude determination requires the vehicle to be equipped with a setup of multiple GNSS antennas. In the GNSS context, positioning and attitude determination have been traditionally tackled in a separate manner, thus losing valuable correlated information, and for the latter only in batch form. The main goal of this contribution is to shed some light on the recursive joint estimation of position and attitude in multi-antenna GNSS platforms. We propose a new formulation for the joint positioning and attitude (JPA) determination using quaternion rotations. A Bayesian recursive formulation for JPA is proposed, for which we derive a Kalman filter-like solution. To support the discussion and assess the performance of the new JPA, the proposed methodology is compared to standard approaches with actual data collected from a dynamic scenario under the influence of severe multipath effects.

Abstract:

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), congestion will cause packet loss which in turn wastes energy and reduces the lifetime of WSNs, and therefore congestion in WSNs must be controlled or avoided in either a fairness or a weighted-fairness way. It is very important to achieve weighted fairness for many WSN applications, and this problem becomes more complicated when the data flow is forwarded to multiple routing paths. In this paper we propose a joint priority-based algorithm (JPA) that eliminates congestion and achieves weighted fairness in multi-path and multi-hop wireless sensor networks. Weighted fairness is achieved when the source node with high source priority (SP) sends more packets than the one with low SP in response to congestion. JPA defines a new variable, joint priority (JP) for each node and link, as the expected value of SP. The JP of a node or link indicates the arithmetic means of SP of source nodes whose data flow passes through that particular node or link, and the sending rate of each node is adjusted based on the value of JP when congestion occurs. The JPA algorithm is simulated and evaluated in different scenarios.

Abstract:

Abstract Juvenile Pilocytic Astrocytoma (JPA) is characterized by an indolent course with excellent survival if gross total resection is achieved. However, a rare subset of these low-grade neoplasms will disseminate. We present two patients with disseminated JPA and review the multimodal treatment approach required to manage this disease. CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Disseminated JPA is a low-grade tumor with a chronic relapsing course. Radiation has previously been successful, however, the significant treatment volume needed for disease control is toxic in young children. Approaches using repeated surgical resections and multiple chemotherapy regiments to postpone time to radiation is becoming a standard approach. CLINICAL OUTCOME: Our first patient is a 7-year-old girl who had four progressions in her primary third ventricular mass in the last 2 years. Her disseminated disease has been stable throughout treatment. Initially, she underwent subtotal resection of third ventricular mass, which showed JPA, with negative BRAF v600e and negative BRAF fusion. After observation, she had her first progression and was treated with vincristine and carboplatin. Three months later she had her second progression and then treated with six cycles of selumetinib. Next, she received weekly vinblastine prior to her fourth progression. She then underwent gross total resection of her primary mass and has disease stability for five months. Our second patient is a 13-year-old male who had two progressions in last seven years. After initial subtotal resection, he had local progression and had a second resection of cerebellar mass. After four years of stability, the mass disseminated to his thoracolumbar spine. He underwent resection of spinal tumor which showed positive BRAF fusion and then treated with carboplatin and vincristine. He is showing mild response to treatment after 6 months of chemotherapy. CONCLUSION: We demonstrate that with using multimodal treatment with surgery and chemotherapy regiments, radiation for young children can be postponed.

Abstract:

Josephson parametric amplification is a tool of paramount importance in circuit-QED especially for the quantum-noise-limited single-shot read-out of superconducting qubits. We developed a Josephson parametric amplifier (JPA) based on a lumped-element LC resonator, in which the inductance L is composed by a geometric inductance and an array of 4 superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). We characterized the main figures of merit of the device, obtaining a −3 dB bandwidth BW = 15 MHz for a gain G = 21 dB and a 1 dB compression point P1dB = −115 dBm. The obtained results are promising for the future use of such JPA as the first stage of amplification for single-shot readout of superconducting qubits.

Full text

Abstract:

We consider the problem of joint power allocation (JPA) in a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) joint diversity transmission (JDT) network with a total coordination point power (TCPP) constraint, aimed at maximizing the ergodic cooperative capacity (ECC) in Rayleigh fading channels. In this paper, we first extend the JPA problem in the coordinated two-point (Co2P) JDT networkto the case of a non-unity TCPP constraint. Furthermore, we introduce more accurate log-quadratic approximated (LQA) expressions to obtain the coordinated transmission point (CTP) powers. Next, we extend our study to a coordinated three-point (Co3P) JDT network. Given the mean branch gain-to-noise ratios, we first obtain a log-linear approximated (LLA) expression for obtaining the optimum power of the third CTP (i.e., the worst quality-providing CTP). After obtaining the third-CTP power, we obtain the CTP powers of two better quality-providing CTPs by invoking the LLA CTP power expressions for Co2P JDT power allocation, under the remaining power given by the TCPP minus the third-CTP power. The numerical results demonstrate that the LQA and LLA CTP power expressions for Co2P JDT and the LLA CTP power expressions for Co3P JDT are very efficient in terms of the simplicity for JPA and CoMP set selection, as well as the resulting ECC.

Abstract:

Abstract This work presents an analysis of ﬂux-pumped Josephson Parametric Ampliﬁer (JPA) with a detailed Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) model, using Harmonic Balance (HB) method in Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS). The model is built with the generalized Resistively Shunted Junction (RSJ) model of a Josephson junction and the quantization condition of a SQUID, incorporating eﬀects of the geometric inductance and parasitic parameters. This model is used to simulate the behavior of an unmatched lumped element JPA and an impedance-matched JPA, showing the necessity of the detailed SQUID model for the simulation of a broadband JPA by comparison with the results based on a widely used simpliﬁed model. Gain proﬁles obtained from the approach are consistent with the existing experiments in literatures within reasonable accuracy. Owing to the HB method, the simulation is of high eﬃciency, making it feasible to sweep and optimize parameters. This provides a fast and accurate method for the design and analysis of a JPA.

Abstract:

Abstract Background/Aims Knee, hip and back pain is ubiquitous. NICE’s recommendations are that people with persistent knee, hip and/or back pain receive self-management advice about the importance of physical activity and maintaining healthy body weight. However, people worry about moving and activity which they associate with the onset of pain, fear activity may do more harm than good and consequently refrain from activity (fear-avoidance behaviour), which causes muscles, cartilage and bone atrophy and joint stiffness. Delivering NICE advice to many millions of people is problematic because of limited time and expertise needed to deliver effective lifestyle advice. We introduced a Joint Pain Advice (JPA) service to deliver NICE advice in a variety of health and community settings delivered by a variety of professionals (physiotherapists, health trainers and navigators, community pharmacists). We have now extended JPA by training occupational health and workplace champions to deliver the service in workplace settings. Methods In workplaces, 2-3 people were trained to deliver the JPA service. This involved an initial (30-minute) assessment when the Advisor assessed participant’s pain, function, activity level, body mass, taught simple self-management strategies (weight control, exercise), used behavioural change techniques (motivational interviewing, goal-setting, action/coping planning) and constructed personalised care plans. Participants were reviewed 3 times up to 6-months later, when outcome measures were repeated, progress highlighted, health messages reinforced, on-going support offered and reassurance and encouragement given. Qualitative interviews assessed people's opinions of the effectiveness and value. Results 12 employers delivered JPA, 417 people accessed the service. Overall musculoskeletal health and function measured by the MSK-HQ increased by 8 points (CI 6.6 to 9.2), pain decreased 1 point (CI -1.33 to -0.88), number of sit-to-stand performed in 30secs increased by 2.8 (CI 2.0 to 3.6), number of days active for >30mins each week increased by 1.5 (1.1 to 1.8) and self-reported physical function increased 1.5 point (CI 1.1 to 1.8). Employer’s satisfaction with JPA was good (most were considering embedding the service into their organisation) and participant attendance was good (75%), suggesting employers and employees found JPA acceptable and valuable. Problems (inappropriate referrals, failure to attend) were identified and surmounted as possible. People valued advice tailored to their individual needs, appreciated access to care, and the tangible benefits. We are currently evaluating the impact of JPA on absenteeism, presenteeism and healthcare utilisation. Conclusion Delivering core NICE advice through a Joint Pain Advice service in workplace settings is needed, practicable, beneficial and valued. JPA has the potential to treat people in their workplaces and communities and “prevent turning people into patients”. We are planning to increase the access of employees to JPA in small medium or large employers. Disclosure M. Hurley: None. A. Carter: None. S. Irwin: None. J. Erwin: None.

RESUMO Objetivo Analisar qual método de julgamento, perceptivo-auditivo (JPA) de áudios ou julgamento perceptivo-visual (JPV) (imagens ultrassonográficas), é mais sensível para detectar produções gradientes entre a classe das fricativas coronais surdas e verificar se há correlação entre essas formas de julgamento. Método Arquivos de áudio e vídeo de ultrassonografia de língua (USL) relativos às produções das palavras “sapo” e “chave”, de 11 crianças, entre 6 a 12 anos de idade, com produção de fala atípica, foram selecionados de um banco de dados e editados para os julgamentos. Após instrução e treino prévio, 20 juízes deveriam escolher, imediatamente à apresentação do estímulo (auditivo ou visual), uma dentre três opções dispostas na tela do computador. No JPA as opções eram: produção correta, incorreta ou gradiente, enquanto no JPV as opções eram imagens correspondentes à produção de [s], de [∫] ou indiferenciada. O tempo de apresentação dos estímulos e o tempo de reação foram controlados automaticamente pelo software PERCEVAL. Resultados O JPV propiciou uma maior porcentagem de identificação dos estímulos gradientes e um menor tempo de reação na realização da tarefa comparativamente ao JPA, ambos estatisticamente significante. O teste de correlação de Spearman não mostrou significância estatística entre as respostas do JPA e JPV, nem para o tempo de reação. Conclusão O JPV com o uso de imagens US mostrou-se o método mais sensível para a detecção da produção gradiente na produção de fricativas [s] e [∫], podendo ser utilizado como método complementar ao JPA na análise de fala.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Racial/ethnic disparities in health reflect a combination of genetic and environmental causes, and DNA methylation may be an important mediator. We compared in an exploratory manner the blood DNA methylome of Japanese Americans (JPA) versus European Americans (EUA). Methods Genome-wide buffy coat DNA methylation was profiled among healthy Multiethnic Cohort participant women who were Japanese (JPA; n = 30) or European (EUA; n = 28) Americans aged 60–65. Differentially methylated CpGs by race/ethnicity (DM-CpGs) were identified by linear regression (Bonferroni-corrected P < 0.1) and analyzed in relation to corresponding gene expression, a priori selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and blood biomarkers of inflammation and metabolism using Pearson or Spearman correlations (FDR < 0.1). Results We identified 174 DM-CpGs with the majority of hypermethylated in JPA compared to EUA (n = 133), often in promoter regions (n = 48). Half (51%) of the genes corresponding to the DM-CpGs were involved in liver function and liver disease, and the methylation in nine genes was significantly correlated with gene expression for DM-CpGs. A total of 156 DM-CpGs were associated with rs7489665 (SH2B1). Methylation of DM-CpGs was correlated with blood levels of the cytokine MIP1B (n = 146). We confirmed some of the DM-CpGs in the TCGA adjacent non-tumor liver tissue of Asians versus EUA. Conclusion We found a number of differentially methylated CpGs in blood DNA between JPA and EUA women with a potential link to liver disease, specific SNPs, and systemic inflammation. These findings may support further research on the role of DNA methylation in mediating some of the higher risk of liver disease among JPA.
