建構證券型代幣發行(STO)市場的法律及規範性框架,係創造投資人信心的關鍵。英國金融行為監理局(FCA)現行有關首次公開發行(IPO)市場之法規範,經評估可適用於STO市場,以消弭投資人與發行人間之不對稱,並促進其使用金融服務。英國的公司法,則作為辨認投資人經濟(現金流)及政治(治理)權存在風險與否之架構。英國法之比較法分析,可提供藉由發展智慧合約以實行STO並落實投資人權利之指引。再者,德國法之比較法分析結果顯示,風險不只僅存在於特定國家之資本市場或公司法規範,其他法律體系亦尚未充分辨認許多風險之態樣,也未將之納入現行立法項目之考量。最後,本文檢視投資人之資料權,並主張資料權應同時作為經濟及政治上之權利,故資料紅利應被分派予證券型代幣之持有者,且資料治理上應確保中心化管理不會有獨占資訊而影響代幣持有者決策之情形。Embedding securities token offering (STO) within a law and a regulatory framework is critical for its market to develop with investor confidence. The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) current laws and regulations, which were designed for the initial public offering (IPO) market, are assessed for suitability in an STO market that aims to bring investors closer to issuers and to increase access to finance. UK Company law is then used as a framework to identify risks to investors’ economic (cash flow) and political (governance) rights. The analysis provides guidance for developing smart contracts to implement STO and fulfilling investors’ rights. Furthermore, a comparative analysis with German law shows that although the risks do not only exist in country-specific capital market or company law regulations, other legal systems have neither sufficiently identified many of the risks nor taken them into account in current legislative projects. Finally, the author examines investor’s data rights and argues that they should be recognised as both an economic and a political right. Data dividends should be distributed to security token holders and data governance should ensure that centralised management does not monopolise information to influence token holders’ decision making.

Appendicitis is one of the most common surgically treated diseases in the world. CT scans are often over-utilized and ordered before a surgeon has evaluated the patient. Our aim was to develop a tool using machine learning (ML) algorithms that would help determine if there would be benefit in obtaining a CT scan prior to surgeon consultation. Retrospective chart review of 100 randomly selected cases who underwent appendectomy and 100 randomly selected controls was completed. Variables included components of the patient’s history, laboratory values, CT readings, and pathology. Pathology was used as the gold standard for appendicitis diagnosis. All variables were then used to build the ML algorithms. Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Bayesian Network Classifiers (BNC) models with and without CT scan results were trained and compared to CT scan results alone and the Alvarado score using area under the Receiver Operator Curve (ROC), sensitivity, and specificity measures as well as calibration indices from 500 bootstrapped samples. Among the cases that underwent appendectomy, 88% had pathology-confirmed appendicitis. All the ML algorithms had better sensitivity, specificity, and ROC than the Alvarado score. SVM with and without CT had the best indices and could predict if imaging would aid in appendicitis diagnosis. This study demonstrated that SVM with and without CT results can be used for selective imaging in the diagnosis of appendicitis. This study serves as the initial step and proof-of-concept to externally validate these results with larger and more diverse patient population.

In purview of Akers’ (1998) social structure and social learning (SSSL) theory of crime and deviance, this study explicates the varied processes by which unstructured socializing with peers influences deviance through variables of social learning theory as well as self-control. To examine the proposed processes, data were obtained from 1,354 adjudicated adolescents between the ages of 14 and 18 from the juvenile and adult court systems in Maricopa County, Arizona and Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Through use of structural equation modeling, partial support was found for the relationship between unstructured socializing with peers and deviance being partially mediated by differential association, definitions, personal rewards of crime, as well as self-control. By better understanding the multifaceted ways adolescents who spend time in settings of unstructured socializing with friends engage in delinquency, society can better understand the leading factors among youth that occur through socialization resulting in delinquency.

In the holographic approach to cosmology, cosmological observables are described in terms of correlators of a three-dimensional boundary quantum field theory. As a concrete model, we study the $3D$ massless $SU(N)$ scalar matrix field theory with a $\phi^4$ interaction. On the lattice, the energy-momentum tensor (EMT) in this theory can mix with the operator $\phi^2$. We utilize the Wilson Flow to renormalize the EMT on the lattice, and present numerical results for the mixing coefficient for $N = 2$. Obtaining the renormalized EMT will allow us to make predictions for the CMB power spectra in the regime where the dual QFT is non-perturbative., Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures, presented at the 38th International Symposium on Lattice Field Theory - LATTICE2021 - 26-30 July, 2021, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Objective: In this study, we examined school and environmental factors associated with readiness to implement school-based wellness initiatives. Methods: We used an exploratory mixed methods design to assess facilitators and barriers to school wellness policy implementation. We conducted school site visits in 8 K-12 schools in one midwestern school district. We collected quantitative and qualitative data to measure school wellness environments and readiness for change. We used a one-way ANOVA to examine associations between readiness for change and school wellness environments. We analyzed qualitative data inductively; school- and district-level themes emerged. Results: One-way ANOVA results revealed schools in the high readiness (HR) group reported more active school wellness teams than those in the low readiness (LR) group (F(1,6) = 8.442, p = .03). Qualitative data indicated that establishing local school wellness committees was an area of growth needed for all schools. Areas of need in HR schools included enhancing school wellness policy communication, leadership, and staff wellness initiatives. Areas of need in LR schools focused on providing more physical activity and wellness opportunities for students. Conclusion: Readiness for change is a promising metric that could associate with more physical activity opportunities, better wellness team function, and perhaps, wellness policy implementation.

The World Health Organisation and International Society of Hypertension (WHO/ISH) cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment charts have been implemented in many low- and middle-income countries as part of the WHO Package of Essential Non-Communicable Disease (PEN) Interventions for Primary Health Care in Low-Resource settings. Evaluation of the WHO/ISH cardiovascular risk charts and their use is a key priority and since they only existed in paper or PDF formats, we developed an R implementation of the charts for all epidemiological subregions of the world. The main strengths of this implementation are that it is built in a free, open-source, coding language with simple syntax, can be downloaded from github as a package (“whoishRisk”), and can be used with a standard computer.

Background: Point-of-care tests (POCTs) for influenza have been criticised for their diagnostic accuracy, with clinical use limited by low sensitivity. These criticisms are based on diagnostic-accuracy studies that often use the questionable assumption of an infallible gold standard. Bayesian latent class modelling can estimate diagnostic performance without this assumption. Methods: Data extracted from published diagnostic-accuracy studies comparing the QuickVue® influenza A+B influenza POCT to reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in two different populations were re-analysed. Classical and Bayesian latent class methods were applied using the Modelling for Infectious diseases CEntre (MICE) web-based application. Results: Under classical analyses the estimated sensitivity and specificity of the QuickVue® were 66.9% (95% confidence interval (CI) 61.4-71.9) and 97.8% (95% CI 95.7-98.9), respectively. Bayesian latent class models estimated sensitivity of 97.8% (95% credible interval (CrI) 82.1-100) and specificity of 98.5% (95% CrI 96.5-100). Conclusions: Data from studies comparing the QuickVue® point-of-care test to RT-PCR are compatible with better diagnostic performance than previously reported.

Cancer Research ,Oncology - Abstract
Up to 80% of breast cancers (BCa) rely on the estrogen receptor (ER) for their growth and progression. This dependence on ER has led to many hormonal therapies that target this receptor. However, almost 40% of these cancers will acquire resistance over the course of the treatment period. One potential cause of resistance is mutations in the estrogen binding site (EBS) of ER. As such, there is an increasing need for novel inhibitors that targets ER at a site separate from the EBS. Here, we propose targeting the activation-function (AF2) pocket of ER that is important for cofactor binding and transcription activation. Billions of compounds were screened through an in-silico deep docking method, and potential AF2 inhibitors were then validated in cell-based and biophysical assays. We tested the effect of potential AF2 inhibitors on ER transcriptional activity using luciferase reporter assay in ER-positive T47D-kbluc cells. We then evaluated the effect of molecules on cell viability of ER-positive T47D and ER-negative MDA-MB-231 cells using PrestoBlue assays in order to exclude off-target effects. From these cell-based assays, we identified several inhibitors that effectively reduced transcriptional activity and viability in ER-positive T47D cells at low micromolar concentrations. We conducted PGC-1α peptide displacement assay to confirm their AF2 binding and estradiol displacement assays to exclude any binding to the EBS. Proximity ligation assay (PLA) showed disruption of the interaction between ER and coactivator SRC-3 upon treatment with ER-AF2 inhibitors in T47D cells. Current work focuses on confirming the direct binding between the compounds and recombinant ER-ligand binding domain by various biophysical assays (MST, BLI, and ITC). Future work aims to solve the structure of ER-LBD in a complex with our lead compound by X-ray crystallography. We predict that the use of potent ER-AF2 inhibitors along with current treatments, will provide a novel tactic that can act as a complementary therapeutic to target treatment resistance in ER+ BCa.

INTRODUCTION Prohibitin 1 (PHB1) is a mitochondrial chaperone protein important for maximal activity of the electron transport chain. PHB1 deficiency in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) or specifically in Paneth cells (PCs) induces epithelial mitochondrial dysfunction, PC defects, gut microbiota dysbiosis, and spontaneous ileitis in mice by 20 weeks-of-age. Dysbiotic gut microbiota has been implicated in inflammatory bowel diseases and is associated with the decreased abundance of short chain fatty acids (SCFAs; acetate, propionate, and butyrate)-producing bacteria. SCFAs play a significant role in reducing intestinal inflammation and epithelial barrier dysfunction. We tested the hypothesis that luminal SCFA levels were decreased in mice with PHB1 deficiency and that supplementation of SCFAs will ameliorate intestinal inflammation during mitochondrial dysfunction driven by loss of PHB1. METHODS Ileal luminal contents were collected from Phb1fl/fl (control) and Phb1iΔIEC (Phb1-deficient in IECs) mice at 20 weeks of age and SCFAs were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Phb1iΔIEC and Phb1fl/fl littermate mice were treated with 20 mM butyrate dissolved in their drinking water from 16 to 20 weeks-of-age and PC defects were measured by antimicrobial peptide expression (Lysozyme, Cryptdin 3, Cryptdin 5, and Ang4) and Lysozyme staining allocation into secretory granules. Ileitis was measured by histological scoring and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. To test epithelial intrinsic responses, ileal crypt enteroids derived from Phb1iΔIEC and Phb1fl/fl littermate mice were treated with 200 µg/ml healthy ileal stool lysates (from Phb1fl/fl mice) or dysbiotic stool lysates (from Phb1iΔIEC mice) for 16 hours with or without 0.05 mM butyrate, 0.5 mM propionate, 0.5 mM acetate, alone or in combination. Enteroid viability and apoptosis were measured by morphological change and cleaved Caspase 3 expression. RESULTS Butyrate was significantly decreased in ileal stool of Phb1iΔIEC mice. Butyrate supplementation in Phb1iΔIEC mice protected against ileitis and PC defects. Dysbiotic stool lysate decreased viability and increased apoptosis in Phb1-deficient enteroids that were prevented by butyrate supplementation. CONCLUSION Mitochondrial health in IECs cells is crucial for healthy gut microbiota composition and for epithelial defense when the microbiome becomes dysbiotic. Butyrate rescues IECs from insults caused by dysbiotic gut microbiota during mitochondrial dysfunction driven by PHB1 deletion.

Many behavior genetics models follow the same general structure. We describe this general structure and analytically derive simple criteria for its identification. In particular, we find that variance components can be uniquely estimated whenever the relatedness matrices that define the components are linearly independent (i.e., not confounded). Thus, we emphasize determining which variance components can be identified given a set of genetic and environmental relationships, rather than the estimation procedures. We validate the identification criteria with several well-known models, and further apply them to several less common models. The first model distinguishes child-rearing environment from extended family environment. The second model adds a gene-by-common-environment interaction term in sets of twins reared apart and together. The third model separates measured-genomic relatedness from the scanner site variation in a hypothetical functional magnetic resonance imaging study. The computationally easy analytic identification criteria allow researchers to quickly address model identification issues and define novel variance components, facilitating the development of new research questions.

Lewis, Joseph Lee
- Abstract
This study examined selected community stakeholders' perception of the current leadership at their local community educational learning center during an organizational transformation and cultural change process. The transition from a community college to an educational learning center, mandated in 2006 by the Accredition Commission and agreed on by the Chancellor's office, was facilitated by a community college of another district. This process appeared to produce mixed reactions from various educational learning center constituency groups. During the transformational process, opinions how the institutional leadership addressed the task of developing a trusting and meaningful relationship with community stakeholders surfaced. Based on the survey responses gathered from selected community stakeholders from various community-based organizations, this study identified prevalent perceptions regarding the current educational learning center's leadership. Previously, there has been no research examining how community stakeholders feel about the current leadership, state take-over, and partnership phenomena born out of a college district losing its accreditation. Therefore, while researching how satisfied selected community stakeholders were with the current leadership under these unique circumstances, this study also offered an in-depth look at college operations, accreditation expectations, and community relations. The majority of stakeholders surveyed were generally concerned about the current type of leadership at their local educational learning center, and the manner in which the state take-over and partnership impacted the subject community college district stakeholders during the organizational transformation and cultural change process. While focusing on a transformational leadership theoretical framework, this dissertation revealed that generally, stakeholders had opinions that indicated they were not completely satisfied with the manner in which the organizational transformation and cultural change process is being conducted. The results of this study showed that community stakeholders were primarily dissatisfied with the type of leadership strategy facilitated during the transformational process; the manner in which communication is facilitated to the community and the quality of course program offerings. Opinions varied regarding campus services, facilities access and conditions. In the final chapter of this dissertation recommendations are offered to improve public and community relations under the unique circumstances of an organizational transformation and cultural change process of an urban community college.

The roots and rhizomes of several Glycyrrhiza species are widely used as sweetening and flavoring agents in food, as well as important ingredients in formulations of traditional medicines. Five Glycyrrhiza species, G. uralensis, G. glabra, G. inflata, G. echinata, and G. lepidota, often share the name "licorice roots" in the botanicals' marketplace. Unfortunately, misidentification/mislabeling is very common due to their similarities in morpho-anatomical features. Significant metabolite alterations among the different Glycyrrhiza species and their hybrids have been reported, suggesting that the biological activities could vary with the licorice roots or products derived from different species. Development of simple, effective methods for species identification and differentiation is of key importance. In this study, 78 licorice samples were investigated using HPTLC and NMR as analytical tools. Significant metabolite variations were observed between the five species. The species-specific fingerprint patterns for the five Glycyrrhiza species were determined with HPTLC and NMR; then applied to the sample identification and discrimination. The results obtained from these two orthogonal analytical methods agreed with each other. Furthermore, the NMR signals and the species-specific constituents that made significant contributions to the differentiation of the five Glycyrrhiza species were confirmed based on the multivariate analysis of the NMR spectral data. Using the established OPLS-DA models, the classification of hybrids was evaluated and confirmed. The developed methods, particularly the HPTLC method with its simplicity and low cost, could be used as a rapid and reliable approach for the authentication of licorice species and quality control of licorice raw material and products.

BACKGROUND: The extent to which health care systems have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the pandemic on cardiac testing practices, volumes and types of diagnostic services, and perceived psychological stress to health care providers worldwide.METHODS: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular diagnostic care at the pandemic's onset and 1 year later. Multivariable regression was used to determine factors associated with procedure volume recovery.RESULTS: Surveys were submitted from 669 centers in 107 countries. Worldwide reduction in cardiac procedure volumes of 64% from March 2019 to April 2020 recovered by April 2021 in high- and upper middle-income countries (recovery rates of 108% and 99%) but remained depressed in lower middle- and low-income countries (46% and 30% recovery). Although stress testing was used 12% less frequently in 2021 than in 2019, coronary computed tomographic angiography was used 14% more, a trend also seen for other advanced cardiac imaging modalities (positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance; 22%-25% increases). Pandemic-related psychological stress was estimated to have affected nearly 40% of staff, impacting patient care at 78% of sites. In multivariable regression, only lower-income status and physicians' psychological stress were significant in predicting recovery of cardiac testing.CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac diagnostic testing has yet to recover to prepandemic levels in lower-income countries. Worldwide, the decrease in standard stress testing is offset by greater use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities. Pandemic-related psychological stress among providers is widespread and associated with poor recovery of cardiac testing.

Genetics ,Genetics (clinical) - Abstract
BackgroundAxenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is characterised by typical anterior segment anomalies, with or without systemic features. The discovery of causative genes identified ARS subtypes with distinct phenotypes, but our understanding is incomplete, complicated by the rarity of the condition.MethodsGenetic and phenotypic characterisation of the largest reported ARS cohort through comprehensive genetic and clinical data analyses.Results128 individuals with causative variants inPITX2orFOXC1, including 81 new cases, were investigated. Ocular anomalies showed significant overlap but with broader variability and earlier onset of glaucoma forFOXC1-related ARS. Systemic anomalies were seen in all individuals withPITX2-related ARS and the majority of those withFOXC1-related ARS.PITX2-related ARS demonstrated typical umbilical anomalies and dental microdontia/hypodontia/oligodontia, along with a novel high rate of Meckel diverticulum.FOXC1-related ARS exhibited characteristic hearing loss and congenital heart defects as well as previously unrecognised phenotypes of dental enamel hypoplasia and/or crowding, a range of skeletal and joint anomalies, hypotonia/early delay and feeding disorders with structural oesophageal anomalies in some. Brain imaging revealed highly penetrant white matter hyperintensities, colpocephaly/ventriculomegaly and frequent arachnoid cysts. The expanded phenotype ofFOXC1-related ARS identified here was found to fully overlap features of De Hauwere syndrome. The results were used to generate gene-specific management plans for the two types of ARS.ConclusionSince clinical features of ARS vary significantly based on the affected gene, it is critical that families are provided with a gene-specific diagnosis,PITX2-related ARS orFOXC1-related ARS. De Hauwere syndrome is proposed to be a FOXC1opathy.

- Abstract
Each cell type in a solid tissue has a characteristic transcriptome and spatial arrangement, both of which are observable using modern spatial omics assays. However, the common practice is still to ignore spatial information when clustering cells to identify cell types. In fact, spatial location is typically considered only when solving the related, but distinct, problem of demarcating tissue domains (which could include multiple cell types). We present BANKSY, an algorithm that unifies cell type clustering and domain segmentation by constructing a product space of cell and neighbourhood transcriptomes, representing cell state and microenvironment, respectively. BANKSY’s spatial kernel-based feature augmentation strategy improves per-formance and scalability on both tasks when tested on FISH-based and sequencing-based spatial omics data. Uniquely, BANKSY identified hitherto undetected niche-dependent cell states in two mouse brain regions. Lastly, we show that quality control of spatial omics data can be formulated as a domain identification problem and solved using BANKSY. BANKSY represents a biologically motivated, scalable, and versatile framework for analyzing spatial omics data.

- Abstract
The NASA Langley Research Center High Altitude Lidar Observatory (HALO) is a multi-function and modular lidar developed to address the observational needs of NASA’s weather, climate, carbon cycle, and atmospheric composition focus areas. HALO measures atmospheric H2O mixing ratios, CH4 mole fractions, and aerosol/cloud optical properties using the Differential Absorption Lidar (DIAL) and High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) techniques, respectively. In 2019 HALO participated in the NASA Atmospheric Carbon and Transport – America campaign on board the NASA C-130 to compliment a suite of greenhouse gas in-situ sensors and provide, for the first time, simultaneous measurements of column CH4 and aerosol/cloud profiles. HALO operated in 18 of 19 science flights where the DIAL and Integrated Path Differential Absorption lidar (IPDA) techniques at 1645 nm were used for column and multi-layer measurements of CH4 mole fractions, the HSRL and backscatter techniques at 532 and 1064 nm, respectively, for retrievals of aerosol backscatter, extinction, depolarization, and mixing layer heights. In this paper we present HALO’s measurement theory for the retrievals of column and multi-layer XCH4, retrieval accuracy and precision including methods for bias correction, and a comprehensive total column XCH4 validation comparison to in-situ observations. Comparisons of HALO XCH4 to in-situ derived XCH4, collected during spiral ascents and descents, indicates mean difference of 2.54 ppb and standard deviation of the differences of 16.66 ppb when employing 15 s along track averaging (< 3 km). A high correlation coefficient of R = 0.9058 was observed for the 11 in-situ spiral comparisons. Column XCH4 measured by HALO over regional scales covered by the ACT-America campaign are compared against in-situ CH4 measurements carried out within the planetary boundary layer (PBL) from both the C-130 and B200 aircraft. Favorable correlation between the in-situ point measurements within the PBL and the remote column measurements from HALO elucidates the sensitivity of a column integrating lidar to CH4 variability within the PBL, where surface fluxes dominate the signal. Novel capabilities for CH4 profiling in regions of clear air using the DIAL technique are presented and validated for the first time. Additionally, profiling of CH4 is used to apportion the PBL absorption from the total column and is compared to previously reported IPDA cloud slicing techniques that estimate PBL columns using strong echoes from fair weather cumulus. The analysis presented here points towards HALO’s ability to retrieve accurate and precise CH4 columns with the prospects for future multi-layer profiling in support of future suborbital campaigns.

Shiga toxins 1 and 2 (Stx1 and Stx2) from Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) bacteria were simultaneously detected with a newly developed, high-throughput antibody microarray platform. The proteinaceous toxins were immobilized and sandwiched between biorecognition elements (monoclonal antibodies) and pooled horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated monoclonal antibodies. Following the reaction of HRP with the precipitating chromogenic substrate (metal enhanced 3,3-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride or DAB), the formation of a colored product was quantitatively measured with an inexpensive flatbed page scanner. The colorimetric ELISA microarray was demonstrated to detect Stx1 and Stx2 at levels as low as ~4.5 ng/mL within ~2 h of total assay time with a narrow linear dynamic range of ~1–2 orders of magnitude and saturation levels well above background. Stx1 and/or Stx2 produced by various strains of STEC were also detected following the treatment of cultured cells with mitomycin C (a toxin-inducing antibiotic) and/or B-PER (a cell-disrupting, protein extraction reagent). Semi-quantitative detection of Shiga toxins was demonstrated to be sporadic among various STEC strains following incubation with mitomycin C; however, further reaction with B-PER generally resulted in the detection of or increased detection of Stx1, relative to Stx2, produced by STECs inoculated into either axenic broth culture or culture broth containing ground beef.

Rodgers, Joseph Lee and Rodgers, Jacci L.
- Abstract
We propose, develop, and evaluate the black ink-red ink (BIRI) method of testing. This approach uses two different methods within the same test administration setting, one that matches recognition learning and the other that matches recall learning. Students purposively define their own tradeoff between the two approaches. Evaluation of the method in several different class content and class format settings demonstrates the value of the method in actual classroom settings. In particular, the BIRI approach can substantially reduce test anxiety in accelerated adult-learning settings. (Contains 2 notes.)
