    Quasi-cyclic Generalized LDPC codes with low error floors

    No full text
    In this paper, a novel methodology for designing structured generalized LDPC (G-LDPC) codes is presented. The proposed design results in quasi-cyclic G-LDPC codes for which efficient encoding is feasible through shift-register-based circuits. The structure imposed on the bipartite graphs, together with the choice of simple component codes, leads to a class of codes suitable for fast iterative decoding. A pragmatic approach to the construction of G-LDPC codes is proposed. The approach is based on the substitution of check nodes in the protograph of a low-density parity-check code with stronger nodes based, for instance, on Hamming codes. Such a design approach, which we call LDPC code doping, leads to low-rate quasi-cyclic G-LDPC codes with excellent performance in both the error floor and waterfall regions on the additive white Gaussian noise channel

    Gunfight Author Ryan Busse on Responsible Gun Ownership

    No full text
    This week’s guest is Ryan Busse, former senior executive in the firearms industry. Ryan\u27s new book, Gunfight, is an intimate and revealing account of his experience in that industry, his growing disillusionment with it and his ultimate exit. In this conversation, we talk about rural household gun culture, the symbolism assault rifles take on in political division, and the rights and responsibilities of gun ownership in our country.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/anewangle_podcasts/1224/thumbnail.jp

    Zoonotic potential of Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. and prevalence of intestinal parasites in young dogs from different populations on Prince Edward Island, Canada

    No full text
    The prevalence of Giardia duodenalis, Cryptosporidium spp. and other intestinal parasites was determined in dogs <1 year old from Prince Edward Island, Canada. Fecal samples were collected from the local animal shelter (n=62), private veterinary clinics (n=78) and a pet store (n=69). Intestinal parasites isolated included G. duodenalis, Cryptosporidium spp., Toxocara canis, Isospora spp. and Uncinaria stenocephala. To estimate the zoonotic risk associated with these infections, genotypes of G. duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. were determined using 16S rRNA and Hsp70 gene sequencing, respectively. Dogs from the pet store had the highest prevalence of intestinal parasites (78%, 95% CI: 68-88%), followed by the private veterinary clinics (49%, 95% CI: 37-60%), and the local animal shelter (34%, 95% CI: 22-46%). The majority G. duodenalis belonged to host-adapted assemblages D (47%, 95% CI: 31-64%) and C (26%, 95% CI: 13-43%), respectively. Zoonotic assemblages A and B were isolated alone or in mixed infections from 16% (95% CI: 6-31%) of G. duodenalis-positive dogs. All Cryptosporidium spp. were the host-adapted C. canis. While host-adapted, non-zoonotic G. duodenalis genotypes were more common, the presence of G. duodenalis assemblages A and B, T. canis, and U. stenocephala suggests that these dogs may present a zoonotic risk. The zoonotic risk from Cryptosporidium-infected dogs was minimal.Fabienne D. Uehlinger, Spencer J. Greenwood, J. Trenton McClure, Gary Conboy, Ryan O’Handley, Herman W. Barkem

    Wolf Creek XVII part 9: Wolf Creek Innovator in Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation Science Award

    No full text
    The Wolf Creek Conferences on Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation began in 1975, and have served as an important forum for thought leaders and scientists from industry and academia to come together with the common goal of advancing the field of cardiac arrest resuscitation. The Wolf Creek XVII Conference was hosted by the Max Harry Weil Institute of Critical Care Research and Innovation in Ann Arbor, Michigan on June 14–17, 2023. A new component of the conference was the Wolf Creek Innovator in Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation Science Award competition. The competition was designed to recognize early career investigators from around the world who’s science is challenging the current paradigms in the field. Finalists were selected by a panel of international experts and invited to present in-person at the conference. The winner was chosen by electronic vote of conference participants and awarded a $10,0000 cash prize. Finalists included Carolina Barbosa Maciel from the University of Florida, Adam Gottula from the University of Michigan, Rajat Kalra from the University of Minnesota, Ryan Morgan from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Mitsuaki Nishikimi form Hiroshima University, and Jacob Sunshine from the University of Washington. Ryan Morgan from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia was selected as the 2023 Wolf Creek Innovator Awardee. This manuscript provides a summary of the work presented by each of the finalists and provides a preview of the future of resuscitation science

    Marine assemblages respond rapidly to winter climate variability

    No full text
    Even species within the same assemblage have varied responses to climate change, and there is a poor understanding for why some taxa are more sensitive to climate than others. In addition, multiple mechanisms can drive species’ responses, and responses may be specific to certain life stages or times of year. To test how marine species respond to climate variability, we analyzed 73 diverse taxa off the southeast US coast in 26 years of scientific trawl survey data and determined how changes in distribution and biomass relate to temperature. We found that winter temperatures were particularly useful for explaining interannual variation in species’ distribution and biomass, although the direction and magnitude of the response varied among species from strongly negative, to little response, to strongly positive. Across species, the response to winter temperature varied greatly, with much of this variation being explained by thermal preference. A separate analysis of annual commercial fishery landings revealed that winter temperatures may also impact several important fisheries in the southeast United States. Based on the life stages of the species surveyed, winter temperature appears to act through overwinter mortality of juveniles or as a cue for migration timing. We predict that this assemblage will be responsive to projected increases in temperature and that winter temperature may be broadly important for species relationships with climate on a global scale.Peer reviewe
