Abstract:
This paper asks to ground the scholarly knowledge about the role and reception of the X (or cross) as a visual cue for elections in Canadian political visual culture. While the character X (or the symbol of a cross as it is often referred to) is one of the most prominent visual cues used in visual voting encouragement materials in Canadian visual culture, little, if at all, is known about its reception by audiences. This paper asks to contribute to the understanding of the symbol and its reception by citizens. The paper is divided into three sections: 1) establishing the status of the character X as a symbol of elections in Canada, 2) examining ideal uses and occasional misuses of the X, 3) exploring the possibility of replacing the X with an alternative - the checkmark (✔). In conclusion, this work suggests that there is a growing need to reconsider the use of the X in Get Out the Vote posters, and it offers alternatives to it.

Abstract:
este estudo teve como objetivo identificar os principais fatores que impulsionam a adequação ao parto. Trata-se de um estudo de revisão de literatura, cuja busca de dados foi realizada utilizando o Portal Regional da Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, BVS, nas bases de dados da SciELO e LILACS. Após a leitura dos artigos emergiram as categorias: Parto Humanizado; Presença do acompanhante como auxílio ao cuidado humanizado e Papel dos Profissionais no incentivo à autonomia e escolha da parturiente. De maneira geral, os resultados são favoráveis destacando ações humanizadas promovendo um aumento na satisfação materna com a experiência vivida. Sendo assim, foi constatado que a presença de um enfermeiro obstetra, a interação da equipe com a parturiente e a comunicação se destacam como fatores que auxiliam no parto humanizado. A presença do acompanhante auxilia ao promover confiança, relaxamento e apoio físico e emocional. O papel do profissional é fundamental em realizar a orientação e educação em saúde acerca dos riscos e benefícios, bem como oferecer apoio.

Abstract:
A cyclotomic polynomial $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}_{k}(x)$ is an essential cyclotomic factor of $f(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ if $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}_{k}(x)\mid f(x)$ and every prime divisor of $k$ is less than or equal to the number of terms of $f.$ We show that if a monic polynomial with coefficients from $\{-1,0,1\}$ has a cyclotomic factor, then it has an essential cyclotomic factor. We use this result to prove a conjecture posed by Mercer [‘Newman polynomials, reducibility, and roots on the unit circle’, Integers12(4) (2012), 503–519].

Abstract:
Thirty thousand colonies of a bovine liver cDNA library were screened with a mixture of synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides coding for bovine factor X. Five positive colonies were identified, and plasmid DNA was isolated. Cleavage with restriction endonucleases showed that these plasmids (designated pBXl-5) contained inserts of 1530 bp, 770 bp, 700 bp, 1100 bp and 930 bp. DNA sequence analysis of the plasmid with the largest insert (pBXl) confirmed that bovine factor X cDNAs had been cloned. The cDNA sequence predicts that factor X is synthesized as a single chain precursor in which the light and heavy chains of plasma factor X are linked by the dipeptide Arg-Arg. The cDNA sequence also predicts that factor X is synthesized with a preproleader peptide. It is proposed that at least five specific proteolytic events occur during the conversion of preprofactor X to plasma factor Xa. A human liver cDNA library was screened by colony hybridization with a bovine factor X cDNA probe. Three of the positive plasmids contained overlapping DNA that coded for most of human factor X mRNA. A second human liver cDNA library was screened by in situ hybridization with 32P-labeled human factor X cDNA clones obtained from the first screen. Several clones were isolated that contained longer inserts. DNA sequence analysis of these clones allowed the prediction of the amino acid sequence of the precursor form of human plasma factor X. From these studies, it is predicted that human factor X is synthesized as a single polypeptide chain precursor in which the light and heavy chains of plasma factor X are linked by the tripeptide Arg-Lys-Arg. The cDNA sequence also predicts that human factor X is synthesized as a preproprotein having an aminoterminal leader peptide of 40 amino acid residues. A comparison of the amino acid sequences of human and bovine factor X shows high sequence identity around the calcium- binding regions and catalytic regions but low sequence identity around the nonfunctional regions. A human genomic phage library was screened with a human factor X cDNA as a hybridization probe. Thirty-two overlapping phage clones were isolated. Characterization of six of these clones indicates that over 32 Kbp of contiguous sequence is represented. DNA sequence and restriction map analysis shows that the factor X gene is comprised of at least 8 exons and 7 introns. No clones representing the 5' untranslated region and the prepeptide of the leader sequence were identified. Two further genomic phage libraries and two libraries specific for the 5' region of the factor X gene were screened, but no 5' end clones were obtained. Restriction enzyme mapping and Southern blot analysis indicate that thus far, the human factor X gene maps to 24 Kbp of the human genome. Comparison of the factor X gene with other vitamin K-dependent blood coagulation factor genes reveals homologous exon organization. Within the blood coagulation serine proteases factor X, factor IX, factor VII, and protein C form a closely related gene family.<br>Medicine, Faculty of<br>Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Department of<br>Graduate

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis proposes models for the calculation of upper and lower limiting values to the backscatter factor (BSF) that can be used to evaluate measured and modelled BSF values. The upper limit to the BSF is obtained from a Monte Carlo simulation of an infinite parallel beam incident on a semi-infinite phantom in which the dose contribution from all orders of photon scatter is considered. The lower limit is calculated using an analytical photon transport model which considers only the primary dose and the scatter dose from photons that have undergone a single scattering interaction in the phantom. A parametrization of the limiting values in terms of photon energy and irradiation field size is presented and comparisons are made with BSF's from the literature. To further illustrate the utility of the limiting BSF's, comparisons are also made with current TLD-measured BSF's and Monte Carlo simulations of the BSF.

Full text
Abstract:
X-Chromosome Reactivation (XCR) occurs in the epiblast cells of the blastocyst and in germ cells, thereby coupling XCR with pluripotency. We performed a screen in iPS cells by knocking down the expression of candidate genes picked from a single cell microarray expression profile in blastocysts. We thereby identified candidates which had an effect on both pluripotency and X-Reactivation. However, we also identified factors with a specific role in XCR. This suggests that XCR is not an absolute requirement for iPSC reprogramming and that the two processes can be uncoupled. Among these factors, there was the cohesin complex member Smc1a. In experiments based on Super resolution microscopy (STORM), we observed a preferential enrichment of Smc1a on the active compared to inactive X, suggesting a role in shaping the Xa structure. Therefore, we conclude that cohesin-mediated changes in X-chromosome structure are a key step during the XCR process.<br>La reactivación del cromosoma X (XCR) ocurre en las células epiblásticas del blastocisto y en las células germinales, acoplando XCR con la pluripotencia. Se realizó un cribaje durante la reprogramación de iPSC reduciendo la expresión de genes candidatos, seleccionados a partir de un microarray de expresión en blastocitos. Se identificaron factores con un efecto tanto en la pluripotencia como en la XCR y factores con un rol específico en la XCR. Esto sugiere que la XCR no es un requisito absoluto para la reprogramación de las iPSC, y que los dos procesos se pueden desacoplar. Se identificó el miembro Smc1a del complejo de cohesina. Mediante microscopía de súper resolución (STORM) se observó un enriquecimiento preferencial de Smc1a en el cromosoma X activo en comparación con el X inactivo, lo que sugiere un papel en la configuración de la estructura del X activo. Por lo tanto, concluimos que los cambios mediados por cohesina en la estructura del cromosoma X son un paso clave durante el proceso de XCR.

Abstract:
A 13 years-old-girl was admitted in our Hospital for a large muscle hematoma of left psoas. At age 3 she had a severe tonsillar bleeding following angina. Afterwards she suffered from easy bruisability and recurrent epistaxis. Prothrombin time (PT) was slightly prolonged (14.7 sec, control 12 sec, INR 1.5), while a more marked prolongation in aPTT was noticed (54.7 sec, control 30.3 sec). All clotting factors resulted within the normal range but Factor X. Factor X antigen was 0.95 U/ml (Laurell), whereas Factor X activity was 0.52 U/ml by extrinsic system assay (rabbit brain and lung thromboplastin), 0.06 U/ml by intrinsic system assay (rabbit brain cephalin) and 1.15 U/ml by activation by RW-cephalin. Chromogenic assays (S-2222 and CBS 3139) perfor med after activation with RW gave 1.02 U/ml and 1.00 U/ml, respectively. The patient plasma had no inhibitory activity against Factor X. The parents of the proposita (first cousins) had Factor X antigen levels and RW functional activity around 1.00 U/ ml, whereas Factor X activity tested by extrinsic and intrinsic system assay was about 0.60 U/ml and 0.50 U/ml, respectively. This Factor X variant seems different from the other ones previously described, showing normal antigen levels and RW activation, a severe defect in the intrinsic activation and only a partial defect in the extrinsic activation. In particular the two defects more close to it (Factor X Friuli and Factor X Melbourne), both found in patients with Italian ancestry, were dif ferent because of a very prolonged PT (Factor X Friuli) or a normal PT (Factor X Melbourne).

Abstract:
Between 1911 and 1984, the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) conducted a large number of corrosion studies that included the measurement of corrosion damage to samples exposed to real-world environments. One of these studies was an investigation conducted between 1922 and 1940 into the corrosion of bare steel and wrought iron pipes buried underground at 47 different sites representing different soil types across the United States. At the start of this study, very little was known about the corrosion of ferrous alloys underground. The objectives of this study were to determine (i) if coatings would be required to prevent corrosion, and (ii) if soil properties could be used to predict corrosion and determine when coatings would be required. While this study determined very quickly that coatings would be required for some soils, it found that the results were so divergent that even generalities based on this data must be drawn with care. The investigators concluded that so many diverse factors influence corrosion rates underground that planning of proper tests and interpretation of the results were matters of considerable difficulty and that quantitative interpretations or extrapolations could be done "only in approximate fashion" and attempted only in the "restricted area" of the tests until more complete information is available. Following the passage of the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act in 2002 and at the urging of the pipeline industry, the Office of Pipeline Safety of the U.S. Department of Transportation approached the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NBS became NIST in 1988) and requested that the data from this study be reexamined to determine if the information handling and analysis capabilities of modern computers and software could enable the extraction of more meaningful information from these data.

Abstract:
This paper summarizes the main mechanism and influencing factors for Hydrogen Induced Cracking. The evolution of HIC test requirements over nearly 30 years for linepipe intended for sour service is reviewed. Some typical examples of the requirements for sour service pipe production at Europipe (formerly Mannesmann) developed over the past 20 years and the details of trial production of sour service pipes in grade X 70 with 30 mm wall thickness are presented. However, with the steadily increasing demands, it becomes progressively more difficult to fulfill the before mentioned standard test conditions. In those cases where the overall profile of requirements (strength, toughness) cannot be consistently achieved, fit-for-purpose testing methods are currently emerging. As an example, the results of a pipe order, where the fit-for-purpose approach has been used to qualify the pipe for a special project, will be described.

Abstract:
Standard salinity management theory, derived from blending thermodynamic and semi- empirical considerations leads to an erroneous perception regarding compensative interaction among salinity stress factors. The current approach treats matric and osmotic components of soil water potential separately and then combines their effects to compute overall response. With deficit water a severe yield decrease is expected under high salinity, yet little or no reduction is predicted for excess irrigation, irrespective of salinity level. Similarly, considerations of competition between chloride and nitrate ions have lead to compensation hypothesis and to application of excess nitrate under saline conditions. The premise of compensative interaction of growth factors behind present practices (that an increase in water application alleviates salinity stress) may result in collateral environmental damage. Over-irrigation resulting in salinization and elevated ground water threatens productivity on a global scale. Other repercussions include excessive application of nitrate to compensate for salinity, unwillingness to practice deficit irrigation with saline water, and under-utilization of marginal water. The objectives for the project were as follows: 1) To develop a database for model parameterization and validation by studying yield and transpiration response to water availability, excessive salinity and salt composition. 2) To modify the root sink terms of an existing mechanism-based model(s) of water flow, transpiration, crop yield, salt transport, and salt chemistry. 3) To develop conceptual and quantitative models of ion uptake that considers the soil solution concentration and composition. 4) To develop a conceptual and quantitative models of effects of NaCl and boron accumulation on yield and transpiration. 5) To add a user interface to the water flow, transpiration, crop yield, salt transport, chemistry model to make it easy for others to use. We conducted experiments in field plots and lysimeters to study biomass production and transpiration of com (Zeamays cv. Jubilee), melon (Cucumismelo subsp. melo cv. Galia), tomato (Lycopersiconesculentum Mill. cv. 5656), onion (Alliumcepa L. cv. HA 944), and date palms (Phoenix Dactylifera L. cv. Medjool) under salinity combined with water or with nitrate (growth promoters) or with boron (growth inhibitor). All factors ranged from levels not limiting to plant function to severe inhibition. For cases of combined salinity with water stress, or excess boron, we observed neither additive nor compensative effects on plant yield and transpiration. In fact, yield and transpiration at each combination of the various factors were primarily controlled by one of them, the most limiting factor to plant activity. We proposed a crop production model of the form Yr = min{gi(xi), where Yr = Yi ym-1 is relative yield,Ym is the maximum yield obtained in each experiment, Xi is an environmental factor, gi is a piecewise-linear response function, Yi is yield of a particular treatment. We selected a piecewise-linear approach because it highlights the irrigation level where the response to one factor ceases and a second factor begins. The production functions generate response "envelopes" containing possible yields with diagonal lines represent response to Xi alone and the lines parallel to the X-axis represent response to salinity alone. A multiplicative model was also derived approximating the limiting behaviour for incorporation in a hydrochemical model. The multiplicative model was selected because the response function was required to be continuous. The hydrochemical model was a better predictor of field-measured water content and salt profiles than models based on an additive and compensative model of crop response to salinity and water stress.
