Abstract:
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic laid bare the critical role caregivers play in supporting the older adult population, and how easily care structures can fall apart under the stress of a disaster event. As our population rapidly ages, it is imperative to better understand how to support caregivers to ensure relationships between caregivers and older adults remain robust and guarantee everyone’s safety. Therefore, this symposium focuses on the roles of formal and informal caregivers during disasters, primarily the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Richard Chunga will present findings from a survey of homecare aides, exploring drivers of high turnover rates and describing how employers can improve job satisfaction. Dr. Lindsay Peterson will describe barriers and facilitators to disaster preparedness among caregivers, using interviews with caregivers from diverse backgrounds in Florida. Ms. Jessica McLaughlin (PhDc) will share experiences of informal female caregivers, derived from interviews across the United States (US). Chelsea Manheim (LCSW) will describe adaptations to care provision for rural Medical Foster Home (MFH) Veterans from interviews conducted with MFH care providers from across the US. Dr. Carrie Wendel-Hummell will share data around the strengths and challenges of the self-directed care model for home-based long-term care, drawing on interviews with consumers, caregivers, workers, and providers in Kansas. As a whole, these presenters will provide insights into experiences of caregivers as they navigated challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and generate forward thinking on how to inform future disaster response.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Increasing our understanding of drivers of mutagenesis in lung cancer is critical in our efforts to prevent tumor reoccurrence and resistance. Results: Using the multi-region TRACERx lung cancer study, we uncovered that APOBEC3B is significantly upregulated when compared with other APOBEC family members in EGFR driven lung cancer and identified subclonal enrichment of APOBEC mutational signatures. To model APOBEC mutagenesis in lung cancer, several novel EGFR mutant mouse models containing a human APOBEC3B transgene were generated. Using these models, it was uncovered that APOBEC3B expression is detrimental at tumor initiation when expressed continuously in a p53 wildtype background. This detrimental effect is likely due to elevated chromosomal instability, which was observed to increase significantly with APOBEC3B expression in an EGFR mutant TP53 deficient mouse model. Induction of subclonal expression of APOBEC3B in an EGFR mutant mouse model with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy resulted in a significant increase in resistant tumor development. Significant downregulation of the base excision repair gene uracil-DNA glycosylase (UNG) was also observed in APOBEC3B expressing mice, which paralleled findings in patient tumors and cell lines treated with TKI therapy. Finally, a mouse mutational signature was identified in APOBEC3B expressing cell lines, reinforcing the idea that APOBEC driven mutagenesis contributes to TKI resistance. Conclusion: This study demonstrates a unique principle by which targeted therapy induces changes within tumors ideal for APOBEC driven tumor evolution, fueling therapy resistance.

Abstract:
In this manuscript, we have derived a new lifetime distribution named generalized Weibull–Lindley (GWL) distribution based on the T-X family of distribution specifically the generalized Weibull-X family of distribution. We derived and investigated the shapes of its probability density function (pdf), hazard rate function, and survival function. Some statistical properties such as quantile function, mode, median, order statistics, Shannon entropy, Galton skewness, and Moors kurtosis have been derived. Parameter estimation was done through maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method. Monte Carlo simulation was conducted to check the performance of the parameter estimates. For the inference purpose, two real-life datasets were applied and generalized Weibull–Lindley (GWL) distribution appeared to be superior over its competitors including Lindley distribution, Akash distribution, new Weibull-F distribution, Weibull–Lindley (WL) distribution, and two-parameter Lindley (TPL) distribution.

We propose a new generator of continuous distributions with one extra positive parameter called the odd Lindley-G family. Some special cases are presented. The new density function can be expressed as a linear combination of exponentiated densities based on the same baseline distribution. Various structural properties of the new family, which hold for any baseline model, are derived including explicit expressions for the quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, generating function, Renyi entropy, reliability, order statistics and their moments and k upper record values. We discuss estimation of the model parameters by maximum likelihood and provide an application to a real data set.

The proposed distribution exhibits decreasing, increasing and bathtub shaped hazard rate functions depending on its parameters. It is more flexible as it can generate new lifetime distributions as well as some existing distributions. Various statistical properties including closed form expressions for density function, cumulative function, limiting behaviour, moment generating function and moments of order statistics are brought forefront.

Abstract:
The paper contributes majorly in the development of a flexible trigonometric extension of the well-known modified Lindley distribution. More precisely, we use features from the sine generalized family of distributions to create an original one-parameter survival distribution, called the sine modified Lindley distribution. As the main motivational fact, it provides an attractive alternative to the Lindley and modified Lindley distributions; it may be better able to model lifetime phenomena presenting data of leptokurtic nature. In the first part of the paper, we introduce it conceptually and discuss its key characteristics, such as functional, reliability, and moment analysis. Then, an applied study is conducted. The usefulness, applicability, and agility of the sine modified Lindley distribution are illustrated through a detailed study using simulation. Two real data sets from the engineering and climate sectors are analyzed. As a result, the sine modified Lindley model is proven to have a superior match to important models, such as the Lindley, modified Lindley, sine exponential, and sine Lindley models, based on goodness-of-fit criteria of importance.

Abstract:
Abstract Following the Chernobyl nuclear power plant explosion in Ukraine in 1986, increased childhood exposure to radioactive iodine (131I), which occurred primarily through contaminated food sources, has been consistently associated with increased risk of developing papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Increased frequency of cervical lymph node metastases (LNM) is well recognized in pediatric PTC, including pediatric cases following the Chernobyl accident. We recently leveraged the collection of fresh-frozen tumor tissues from the Chernobyl Tissue Bank to conduct a genomic landscape analysis of 440 cases of PTC that provided new insights into radiation-related molecular characteristics of PTC occurring after the accident (Morton et al., Science 2021). Here, we extend that study to conduct a genomic landscape analysis of LNMs for a subset of 48 PTC cases to investigate the specific genomic alterations occurring in LNM. The analysis set comprised 144 samples, including fresh-frozen treatment-naïve primary and LNM PTC tumor samples as well as matched normal tissue or blood. Overall, the mutational load was highly concordant between primary and metastatic PTC. On average, 50% of somatic single nucleotide variants and 97% structural variants were shared between primary and metastatic PTCs. In contrast, the burden of somatic copy number alterations (SCNA) between primary tumor and LNM pairs was less concordant, particularly for copy number gains, whereas most of the copy number loss was found to be shared between matched pairs. PTC is usually driven by one driver mutation, most often involving the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. All driver mutations were shared between primary and metastatic PTC and were clonal; thus, no additional driver mutations were detected in metastatic PTC. Notably, however, the matched pairs in this study disproportionately had fusion drivers (77%), whereas only 23% of the drivers were BRAF V600E and none were RAS mutations. Transcriptome analysis revealed differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in metastatic PTC compared to primary PTC; three-quarters of the DEGs were overexpressed in metastatic PTC. Half of the LNM overexpressed DEGs were members of the HOXC family, which has been linked with epithelial-mesenchymal transition in cancer progression. There was also reduced expression in LNM for the DLX family, which relates to TGF-beta signaling. Our findings did not reveal a relationship between radiation dose and expression profiles in the LNM, comparable to our findings for the primary PTCs. We still observe that the efficiency of the radiation-induced PTC is paramount and subsequent events are directly related to the drivers in the MAPK pathway. For the cervical LNMs, we observed expression profiles not observed in the primary PTC that could give new insights into PTC local metastases. Citation Format: Olivia W. Lee, Danielle M.

Abstract:
Regnellidium Lindman (1904: 2) is a genus that includes only the extant species Regnellidium diphyllum Lindman (1904: 14) in the family Marsileaceae Mirbel (1802: 126), which encompasses a total of three extant genera of aquatic, heterosporous ferns. While the other two genera within the family, Marsilea L. (1753: 1099) with 50–75 spp., and Pilularia L. (1753: 1100) with 3–6 spp., are nearly cosmopolitan in distribution, the extant species of Regnellidium is restricted to a small region of South America, found only in northeastern Argentina, southern Brazil, and Uruguay (Schultz, 1949; de la Sota & Mitchel 1970; Tryon & Tryon 1982; Kramer, 1990; Alonso Paz & Bassagoda, 2002; Cúneo et al., 2013). It was only in 1892, on the first Regnell expedition, that Lindman discovered the plants, which he described as Regnellidium (Lindman, 1904), on the banks of the Rio Grande do Sul, in southern Brazil. The species was not found again until November 1935, when it was located at Santa Maria by Dr. W. Rau and at São Leopoldo by Dr. J. Dutra (Johnson & Chrysler, 1938). Today it is widely cultivated in Botanic Gardens.

Abstract:
In this article, two new families of distributions are proposed: the generalized log-Lindley-G (GLL-G) and its counterpart, the GLL*-G. These families can be justified by their relation to the log-Lindley model, an important assumption for describing social and economic phenomena. Specific GLL models are introduced and studied. We show that the GLL density is rewritten as a two-member linear combination of the exponentiated G-densities and that, consequently, many of its mathematical properties arise directly, such as moment-based expressions. A maximum likelihood estimation procedure for the GLL parameters is provided and the behavior of the resulting estimates is evaluated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to repairable data is made. The results argue for the use of the exponential law as the basis for the GLL-G family.

Full text
Abstract:
The genus Rhomboda Lindley (1857: 181), belonging to the family Orchidaceae (Orchidoideae: Cranichideae: Goodyerinae), was first described by John Lindley with a single species, viz. R. longifolia Lindley (1857: 181). Bentham (1881: 346) reduced Rhomboda to Hetaeria Blume (1825: 409), but Hooker (1890: 109) transferred it to Zeuxine Lindley (1826: 9). Tang & Wang (1951: 34) included R. longifolia in Odontochilus Blume (1858: 66), overlooking the priority of Rhomboda over Odontochilus. Finally, Ormerod (1995) reinstated Rhomboda and reviewed its generic affinities, circumscription and clarified some of the confusions about the genus. Rhomboda is characterised by a labellum with large, saccate hypochile having two glands within (one at either side), medially with a bicarinate, semidiscoid keel, hypochile outside with a narrow flange each side, the column with two large medial wings, and a short rostellum.

Abstract:
There are many proposed life models in the literature, based on Lindley distribution. In this paper, a unified approach is used to derive a general form for these life models. The present generalization greatly simplifies the derivation of new life distributions and significantly increases the number of lifetime models available for testing and fitting life data sets for biological, engineering, and other fields of life. Several distributions based on the disparity of the underlying weights of Lindley are shown to be special cases of these forms. Some basic statistical properties and reliability functions are derived for the general forms. In addition, comparisons among various forms are investigated. Moreover, the power distribution of this generalization has also been considered. Maximum likelihood estimator for complete and right-censored data has been discussed and in simulation studies, the efficiency and behavior of it have been investigated. Finally, the proposed models have been fit to some data sets.

Full text
Abstract:
Rachel Seiffert’s The Walk Home (2014) tells the story of a Protestant Irish family living in Glasgow that has been haunted by a problematic fanaticism since the Partition of Ireland (1922). Its narrative builds an intricate family tree where its members, immersed in the vicious cycle of ethno-sectarian violence, reveal their own traumas and intrinsic frailties. Their isolation and helplessness are further exacerbated by their tendency to repress their traumatic past. However, the encounter between Lindsey and Eric, two relatives-in-law, encourages them to run away and confront the past through art respectively, thus casting some light on the unending transmission of trauma in the family. Drawing on theories of trauma and ethics (Freud 1950 [1917], 2001 [1914]; Levinas 1986, 1998 [1993]; Volkan 2001, 2017; Butler 2004; LaCapra 2014 [2001]), I will attempt to demonstrate, firstly, that the narrative form of The Walk Home performs the disruptive and repetitive symptoms of transgenerational trauma; and secondly, that the ethical encounter with the other and the recognition of a shared vulnerability transmitted through families can empower characters like Lindsey and Eric to change their lives. The analysis also considers the possibility of challenging the perpetuity of the traumas arising out of the British-Irish conflict and developing resilience through the acknowledgement of vulnerability, the need for interdependency and the heling power of artistic representation.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Primary pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) contribute to 20-25% of all lung cancer diagnoses and lie on a spectrum of malignant behavior, ranging from low grade classical carcinoid tumors to high grade, aggressive small cell carcinomas. The evolutionary relationships between NETs of different grades remain poorly understood, here we seek to use the TRACERx study to explore the genomic evolution of these lung cancers. Methods: Tissue and blood samples were taken from a cohort of 20 patients with pulmonary NETs in a sub-study within TRACERx. Multi-region sampling (84 total regions) and whole exome sequencing was performed on fresh frozen tissue from each tumor. Histological classification of each tumor region was confirmed and scoring of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) was performed. The data were then analyzed using the established TRACERx bioinformatics pipeline. Results: Phylogenetic evolutionary histories were generated, illustrating the genomic divergence in each tumor and identifying points at which specific known drivers were acquired during tumor evolution. Lower grade classical and atypical carcinoids were characterized by a low mutational and copy number burden with a high fraction of subclonal mutations, with 5/12 cases having no apparent somatic mutational driver mutation. In contrast higher grade large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas and small cell carcinomas had higher mutational and copy number burden, as well as higher rates of genome instability and whole genome doubling. We identified no evolutionary link between subtypes such as commonly shared clonal drivers, suggesting that atypical or classical carcinoids later evolve into higher grade carcinomas. Dn/ds was used to investigate for evidence of selection in the carcinoid tumors; while there was no evidence for selection in known cancer driver genes associated with NETs or lung cancer, there was a high global dn/ds value suggesting the existence of unknown drivers for this cancer type. Furthermore, there was evidence of parallel evolution in one atypical carcinoid case with two distinct subclonal MEN1 frameshift mutations co-occurring with loss of the other allele. One small cell carcinoma patient was identified as having two genetically unrelated tumors. A germline predisposition for this tumor was suspected since we identified a variant in BRCA2 (rs11571833) that was maintained under loss of heterozygosity in one tumor with a corresponding somatic BRCA2 mutation in the other, suggesting two independent double hit events. Conclusions: Genomic differences are identifiable between different members of the pulmonary NET family, with high grade tumors showing increased whole genome instability indices and phylogenetic divergence than low grade tumors. This work has shed light on the genomic landscape of pulmonary NETs and enabled the identification of distinct evolutionary trajectories in the different subtypes.

In this paper, we introduced and studied the statistical properties of a new distribution called the Marshall-Olkin extended quasi Lindley distribution. Specifically, we derived the crude moment, moment generating function, quantile function, and distributions of order statisticsbased on the distribution. The maximum likelihood point estimation method was used to estimate the parameters of the newly introduced model. Some AR minfication processes were discussed. We illustrated the applicability of the distribution using a real dataset.Keywords: Marshal-Olkin family of distributions; maximum likelihood estimates; minification processes; quasi Lindley distribution; quantile function.

Abstract:
Abstract A golden yellow polyp was detected in the gallbladder of a 64-year-old man who presented with epigastric pain. The lesion was composed of clear polygonal cells arranged in a trabecular and glandular pattern. The tumor invaded through the wall into the perimuscular subserosal layer. Immunohistochemical stains showed that neoplastic cells were positive for chromogranin A, synaptophysin, somatostatin, gastrin, and pancreatic polypeptide and negative for glucagon, serotonin, insulin, S100 protein, and inhibin. This tumor resembles the recently described clear cell endocrine tumors of the gallbladder and pancreas that are associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease. Our patient, however, had neither personal nor family history indicative of von Hippel-Lindau disease. Furthermore, published accounts of clear cell endocrine tumors in von Hippel-Lindau disease describe immunoreactivity for inhibin; the current case was negative for the disease. There may be a subtype of clear cell carcinoid tumor not associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease, which is characterized by its lack of immunoreactivity against inhibin.

In this article, we have proposed three parameters distribution using lindley family of distribution and Generalized inverted Exponential distribution called Lindley Generalized Inverted Exponential Distribution: Model and Applications(LGIE). The statistical properties as well as different characteristics like the hazard rate function (HRF), the probability density function (PDF), the cumulative distribution function (CDF), quantile function , skewness, and kurtosis of the proposed distribution are discussed. The parameters of the proposed distribution are estimated by using the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), least-square estimation (LSE) and Cramer-Von-Mises (CVM) methods. All the computations are performed in R programming software. To assess the application of the proposed distribution, a real lifetime data set is analyzed and performed the goodness-of-fit.

Abstract:
Statistician always tries to find an easy method that gives a suitable fit. However, proposing a new distribution always solves many statistical problems. In this paper, we introduce a new extension of the Lindley distribution. We made a statistical inference under complete and Type-II censored sample on a new extension of the Lindley distribution. We have deduced its PDF and CDF using a cubic transmuted family that is because the new equations are very easy in computation. We called the new form the cubic transmuted Lindley distribution. The probability distribution function and the cumulative distribution function were also written as a closed form along with some mathematical properties. The classical method, which is the maximum likelihood estimation technique and maximum product of spacing technique, was used to find the estimators of the unknown model parameters. At last, to prove the superiority and applicability of the model, three real data sets are implemented and compared using the proposed method. We made a comparison with some of its baseline distributions and some other extensions, and our model outperforms the published ones.

<p>This paper proposed a new general class of continuous lifetime distributions, which is a complementary to the Poisson-Lindley family proposed by Asgharzadeh et al. [3]. The new class is derived by compounding the maximum of a random number of independent and identically continuous distributed random variables, and Poisson-Lindley distribution. Several properties of the proposed class are discussed, including a formal proof of probability density, cumulative distribution, and reliability and hazard rate functions. The unknown parameters are estimated by the maximum likelihood method and the Fisher’s information matrix elements are determined. Some sub-models of this class are investigated and studied in some details. Finally, a real data set is analyzed to illustrate the performance of new distributions.</p>

Abstract:
In this work, a new family of distributions, which extends the Beta transmuted family, was obtained, called the Modified Beta Transmuted Family of distribution. This derived family has the Beta Family of Distribution and the Transmuted family of distribution as subfamilies. The Modified beta transmuted frechet, modified beta transmuted exponential, modified beta transmuted gompertz and modified beta transmuted lindley were obtained as special cases. The analytical expressions were studied for some statistical properties of the derived family of distribution which includes the moments, moments generating function and order statistics. The estimates of the parameters of the family were obtained using the maximum likelihood estimation method. Using the exponential distribution as a baseline for the family distribution, the resulting distribution (modified beta transmuted exponential distribution) was studied and its properties. The modified beta transmuted exponential distribution was applied to a real life time data to assess its flexibility in which the results shows a better fit when compared to some competitive models.

Abstract:
✓ The findings of a 10-year study (1976 to 1986) conducted in southwest Germany on hemangioblastomas (HBL's) of the central nervous system (CNS) are presented. During that period, 47 HBL's were diagnosed and surgically removed in 44 patients, with a good postoperative survival rate and prognosis. The majority (83%) of these tumors were located in the cerebellum. By thorough clinical examination of the patients and careful evaluation of their family background, it was found that 23% of the HBL patients were afflicted with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. In addition to the CNS tumors, 14 neoplastic or similar lesions were detected in other tissues. These included angiomatosis of the retinae, pheochromocytomas, pancreatic cysts, renal cysts, and renal carcinoma. The diagnosis of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome was thus established in seven families. The authors suggest the need for a screening program for patients with HBL of the CNS which is designed to confirm or exclude ocular or visceral lesions associated with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome.

Abstract:
Abstract ‘Wartime Rupture and Reconfiguration in French Family Life: Experience and Legacy’, by Lindsey Dodd Family separation is a widespread consequence of war, particularly war which targets civilian populations. This article draws on oral history narratives recorded by the author with French people who became child evacuees or refugees in France during the Second World War. All ended up in the département of the Creuse, in central France, hosted by people with whom they had no previous connection. Experiences of family rupture and reconfiguration have been considered by psychologists, but rarely by historians. As children live their lives mainly in the domestic sphere, close examination of their wartime worlds gives insight into the indirect effects of conflict on the youngest members of society. I argue that the experience of the Second World War must be understood as profound and lasting, even among those who did not experience combat, persecution or aggression directly. My case studies complicate understandings of family separation as a wholly negative experience for children in war, without compromising sensitivity to the nuances of individual difference. And I show the power of subjective retrospective sources to reveal the legacy of war inside commemorative actions situated well below national levels, which go unacknowledged in studies focused on the ‘collective’ or ‘cultural’ memory of the period.

Abstract:
The steadily growing interest in studying of endocrine genetics is driven not only by the search for new pathologies but also by the most pressing need to develop methods for early diagnosis, treatment and management of patients. Though 20% of all the patients with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome do not have a family history of the disease; a genetic basis is a natural characteristic of the disease and determinates a phenotype. Despite the nonaggressive course, in general, a relative unpredictability of the syndrome signs onset and the lack of regular monitoring can increase the risk of surgery complications and cause a disability at a young age. The presented clinical case shows the need for a multidisciplinary approach to management of the patients with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome.
