Energy savvy network joining strategies for energy harvesting powered TSCH nodes
No full textThis is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from IEEE via the DOI in this recordThis paper presents methods that enable batteryless
energy harvesting powered Time Synchronized Channel Hopping
(TSCH) wireless sensor nodes to join a network with less energy
wastage. Network joining of TSCH nodes is a very power hungry
yet inevitable process to form a working wireless sensor network
(WSN). Since the energy level from energy harvesting is scarce,
energy passive methods are essential. A duty-cycled network
joining process in combination with an appropriate capacitor size
is proposed here as they are among the factors that can be easily
controlled without extra energy. When a node joins the network
in a duty-cycled manner, other nodes may join the network
during the gap time, which reduces energy wastage of the nodes
in waiting. With an appropriate capacitor size, the capacitor can
be charged up within a reasonable time and power up the node
for a sufficiently long time, which increases the probability to
complete the network joining process of the node. With the
combination of a join duty cycle of 50% with a 100 mF capacitor,
a WSN was successfully formed by two energy harvesting
powered wireless sensor nodes in one network joining attempt.Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC
A common HLA-DPA1 variant is associated with hepatitis B virus infection but fails to distinguish active from inactive Caucasian carriers
No full textBackground and Aims: Chronic infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major health issue worldwide. Recently, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DP locus were identified to be associated with HBV infection in Asian populations. Most significant associations were observed for the A alleles of HLA-DPA1 rs3077 and HLA-DPB1 rs9277535, which conferred a decreased risk for HBV infection. We assessed the implications of these variants for HBV infection in Caucasians.
Methods: Two HLA-DP gene variants (rs3077 and rs9277535) were analyzed for associations with persistent HBV infection and with different clinical outcomes, i.e., inactive HBsAg carrier status versus progressive chronic HBV (CHB) infection in Caucasian patients (n = 201) and HBsAg negative controls (n = 235).
Results: The HLA-DPA1 rs3077 C allele was significantly associated with HBV infection (odds ratio, OR = 5.1, 95% confidence interval, CI: 1.9–13.7; p = 0.00093). However, no significant association was seen for rs3077 with progressive CHB infection versus inactive HBsAg carrier status (OR = 2.7, 95% CI: 0.6–11.1; p = 0.31). In contrast, HLA-DPB1 rs9277535 was not associated with HBV infection in Caucasians (OR = 0.8, 95% CI: 0.4–1.9; p = 1).
Conclusions: A highly significant association of HLA-DPA1 rs3077 with HBV infection was observed in Caucasians. However, as a differentiation between different clinical courses of HBV infection was not possible, knowledge of the HLA-DPA1 genotype cannot be translated into personalized anti-HBV therapy approaches

Severe neurological outcomes after very early bilateral nephrectomies in patients with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD)
No full textTo test the association between bilateral nephrectomies in patients with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) and long-term clinical outcome and to identify risk factors for severe outcomes, a dataset comprising 504 patients from the international registry study ARegPKD was analyzed for characteristics and complications of patients with very early (� 3 months; VEBNE) and early (4�15 months; EBNE) bilateral nephrectomies. Patients with very early dialysis (VED, onset � 3 months) without bilateral nephrectomies and patients with total kidney volumes (TKV) comparable to VEBNE infants served as additional control groups. We identified 19 children with VEBNE, 9 with EBNE, 12 with VED and 11 in the TKV control group. VEBNE patients suffered more frequently from severe neurological complications in comparison to all control patients. Very early bilateral nephrectomies and documentation of severe hypotensive episodes were independent risk factors for severe neurological complications. Bilateral nephrectomies within the first 3 months of life are associated with a risk of severe neurological complications later in life. Our data support a very cautious indication of very early bilateral nephrectomies in ARPKD, especially in patients with residual kidney function, and emphasize the importance of avoiding severe hypotensive episodes in this at-risk cohort. © 2020, The Author(s)

There are a great many generous

money must come from. Gradually
the Idea of pensioning school teachers, firemen and policemen Is ta-
ptutdlng to include other employee
and the only logical plact to atop Is
when sl| public streams can look
forward to s retiring pension. Railroad corporation* and colleges are

Final official figures Issued by tht
secretary of suit show thst every
one of the eleven proposition* voted
upon October 26th In California
waa defeated. They all went down
—good, bad and Indifferent
A considerable psrt of this result
was due to ths unwillingness of
voters to study tht proposal* and
tht greater aaae with which the advice "When In doubt vote no"
could be followed. It la easier to
rote "no*' than it la to read
amendment
There was one proposal for filling
judicial vacancies thst provided for
those awkward vacancies of a few
weeks which often occur between
election day snd January, when
new terms begin. There Is not a
logical reason on earth why anybody should have voted "no" on
thla. but enough of them did so to
actually defeat It. This Illustrates
the beauty of that asinine rule.
"When In doubt volt no." The only
sensible rule Is "When In doubt do
not vote at all."

declared lhat a trotler at one period

Impossible, for If true tht horse

As the argument waxed warmer

However, the author was curator of the Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin during 1834–1848, when he published the article where the species was described (Erichson 1847), and this museum holds a single specimen explicitly identified as “ syntype ” in recent years, but most likely representing the only specimen available to Erichson at the time, and therefore proposed here as the holotype of the species, by monotypy. Holotype (Fig. 1b), by monotypy: female, 29777, matronalis Er. Peru v. Tsch., SYNTYPUS Calligrapha matronalis Erichson, 1847 labeled by MNHUB2007 [red label] (MfN). Specimen lacks three apical antennomeres of right antenna, maxillary palpi, three apical tarsomeres of right protarsus, left pro-onychium, left mesotarsus and right meta-onychium. Description. Body elliptic, moderately convex. Head, pronotum, coxae and ventral thoracic parts black with slight bronze metallic reflection on head, and dark greenish-blue elsewhere; apex of clypeus, labrum, mandibles, mouth appendages, antennae and legs (including trochanter) reddish brown, paler, almost orange, in four basal antennomeres, and darker in apical antennomeres and apical and ventral margins of mandibles; scutellum, narrow margin and dark markings on elytra, epipleura and abdominal ventrites very dark brown with very faint bronze metallic reflection; background of elytra creamy yellow. Length: 8.4 mm; width: 5.6 mm. Head broad, deeply inserted into prothorax; surface finely alutaceous, covered with small punctures, denser near eyes and absent on antennal calli, with short, appressed fine whitish setae; frontal suture weakly impressed, obsolete at middle of broadly bisinuous clypeal suture; supraocular furrows wide and deep running from antennal calli and surpassing dorsal border of eye posteriorly. Eyes of moderate size, dorso-ventrally elongate, entire and finely faceted. Clypeus small, about 1/3 as wide as head and about 2x wider than long, slightly depressed basally relative to antennal calli, with punctation somewhat smaller than on frons and with similar pilosity, except before and in apical deflexed area with medially convergent long pale yellowish setae. Labrum relatively long, about 0.5x as long as clypeus, with round anterior angles and concave emargination at deflexed apex, markedly setose, with several long pale yellowish setae on anterior half. Mandibles large, twice as long as length of labrum; sides straight, feebly convergent basally and strongly curved at right angle at middle; surface with scattered strong punctures bearing thick pale yellowish setae. Antennae relatively long, reaching humeri, clavate beyond sixth antennomere; scape thick, convex anteriorly and widened toward apical 2/3, slightly curved posteriorly; four basal antennomeres, including pedicel long, slender, weakly enlarged apically, with pedicel stockier, nearly as long as third antennomere and antennomeres 4–5 subequal to pedicel; basal antennomeres with scattered short setae; sixth antennomere about as long as fifth, broader and hairer at apex, as base of antennal club; antennomeres 7–10 progressively wider, covered by dense short pubescence; eighth antennomere 0.73x as wide as long; antennomere 11 longest, tapering in apical 1/3. Maxillary palpi elongate, with apical palpomere subtrapezoidal, subparallel near obliquely truncate apex; previous segment nearly as long and broader apically than last palpomere (description based on other Peruvian specimen identical to type, which lacks maxillary palpi). Pronotum transverse, 1.9x broader at base than long at middle, weakly convex in sagittal plane and moderately convex in axial plane, more markedly sloping toward anterior angles; anterior border nearly straight behind vertex and concave behind eyes toward anterior angles, narrowly margined; sides almost straight, weakly convergent anteriorly in basal 3/4, and curved more or less at obtuse angle toward protruding anterior angles; anterior angles acute with round blunt apex, bearing large trichobothrium; posterior angles weakly obtuse, with large trichobothrium at angle; basal border straight at sides and broadly convex at middle, unmargined; surface of pronotum finely microreticulate and rather densely uniformly covered by large punctures on disc, and with larger, deeper and sometimes confluent fossette-like punctures at sides, with irregular row of deep punctures near or confluent with basal border at sides. Hypomera triangular, convex on disc, and slightly transversally concave basally, with surface finely shagreened, unpunctured; hypomeral suture weak, marked externally at base by raised marginal area, shinier than remainder of hypomera, obsolete apically. Prosternum relatively long, with anterior transverse part as long as prosternal process; anterior border of prosternum weakly concave, margined; surface finely microreticulate, with large round punctures and posteriorly recumbent long yellow setae in posterior half, in front of procoxae; prosternal process spatulate posteriorly, narrower than antennal scape basally and gradually widening posteriorly to straight apical border; apical area depressed, rugose with large setigerous punctures. Scutellum long, relatively narrow, 1.3x longer than wide at base, with blunt round apex; surface rather smooth, unpunctured. Mesepimera finely microreticulate with scattered punctures in posterior half. Mesoventrite short, apically reaching middle of mesocoxae, with process convex and rather glossy on disc and lateral arms with microreticulate surface and large round fossette-like punctures; surface with disheveled long pale yellowish setae. Metanepisterna with broad raised, smooth and finely shagreened anterior and external margins; disc microreticulate, with large punctures in anterior third, and smaller elongate punctures in narrow posterior 2/3. Metaventrite longer than prosternum and mesoventrite combined, markedly convex at sides in axial plane, with short broad subtrapezoidal anterior process with thick margins, and regularly concave intermetacoxal plate; disc smooth, flat, with fine transverse scratches and scattered small punctures with short, fine whitish setae, and finely impressed discrimen; sides finely shagreened with larger punctures near anterior angles; anterior metaventral process and area behind mesocoxae with dense long pale yellowish setae. Elytra long, 0.8x as long as body, with weakly marked humeri, sides weakly curved, widest at middle, and regularly curved at apex; humeral calli slightly impressed internally at base of elytra, and lateral declivities convex, entirely concealing margin of elytra as seen from above except before humerus; elytral surface smooth, cereous with scattered very small, dot-like punctures with dark background on pale areas, and more or less regularly arranged as premarginal line of punctures; dark markings surrounded by slightly larger, deeper punctures. Pattern of markings (Fig. 1b) consisting of: (i) sutural stripe narrower than scutellum except briefly in scutellar area, surrounding apical half of scutellum without reaching base of elytra and uninterrupted to reach sutural angle; stripe delimited basally by short scutellar row of 11–14 punctures; (ii) subsutural stripe continuous, almost completely confluent with sutural stripe except in slightly divergent basal end for some four punctures, gradually narrowing posteriorly, with slightly enlarged area in apical declivity of elytra and progressively narrowed to sutural angle; basal end of stripe slightly anterior to apex of scutellum and stripe completely delimited by punctures; (iii) apical spot of arcuate band on apical declivity of disc, large, irregularly ovoid, separated from subsutural stripe by distance equal to width of stripe, surrounded by and with few scattered inner punctures; (iv) minute expansion of dark margin of elytron at base of internal declivity of humerus; (v) humeral spot large, elongate, broadly detached from basal margin of elytron and completely confluent laterally with (vi) humeral lunule, twice as long as humeral spot, shaped as regularly arched broad stripe curved toward suture, and completely fused at apex with spot equivalent to basal spot of arcuate band of other species, appearing as broad apical end of large humeral marking parallel to and detached from subsutural stripe; humeral spot, humeral lunule and basal spot of arcuate band recognizable by outline of punctures; (vii) spot enclosed by humeral lunule medium-sized, ovoid, with anterior end narrower and slightly irregular, externally and apically surrounded by inner curvature of humeral spot and internally by subsutural stripe, all equidistant; spot surrounded by punctures with few scattered inner punctures; (viii) subhumeral spot small, about half as big as spot enclosed by humeral lunule, irregularly elliptical, free, much closer to margin of elytron than to outer edge of humeral marking, crossed medially by irregular line of premarginal punctures; (ix) midlateral spot medium-sized, as big as spot enclosed by humeral lunule, elongate elliptical, externally confluent completely with dark margin of elytron; (x) medium-sized spot in apical angle of elytron, joining spot of apical declivity and apical spot of other species, irregular; (xi) five additional spots, one large, roundish, on disc, aligned with and equidistant to spots of arcuate band, and four arranged as row parallel to margin, at lateral declivity of elytron, first ovoid and slightly smaller than midlateral spot, second elongate and about as big as midlateral spot, third elliptic and larger than apical spot of arcuate band, and fourth roundish, about as large as subhumeral spot. Epipleura finely alutaceous, unpunctured, slightly concave in apical half between narrow, smooth and shiny lateral margins. Femora long, slightly enlarged medially, with smooth and shiny surface and scattered punctures with very short and fine yellowish setae; tibiae slender, as long as corresponding femur, nearly straight and gradually thickening toward apex, with fine longitudinal carinae at vertices, and surface smooth, with scattered punctures and short golden setae, longer and denser at apex ventrally; tarsi long, slender, nearly as long as corresponding tibia, with first tarsomere longer than wide, second tarsomere with long narrow base, third tarsomere about as long as second, weakly bilobed apically, and onychium longest, as long as tarsomeres 2–3 together, clavate, with sharp simple claws divergent at acute angle. First abdominal ventrite as long as metaventrite, with wide anterior intercoxal process broadly round at angles and margined, and posterior border nearly straight; second abdominal ventrite half as long and ventrites 3–4 about 1/3 as long as first ventrite; surface of ventrites smooth, shiny, with scattered punctures and short, fine appressed whitish setae; each ventrite with slightly depressed small rugose areas at sides. Penis (Fig. 2b) slender, with sides parallel and moderately curved ventrally, tapering toward apex dorsally in apical quarter and slightly narrowed around gonopore apically; apical border weakly convex, with short median lobe and posteriorly recurved acute teeth at sides; lateral teeth weakly surpassing average width of penis; gonopore large, ovoid, with basal short, transverse dorsal flap, slightly membranous longitudinally at middle; apical end of flagellum moderately expanded, surrounded by large membranous margin.

Reliability assessment of rock slopes by evidence theory
No full textEl objetivo de este proyecto de investigación es desarrollar una metodología para efectuar análisis de confiabilidad de la estabilidad de taludes rocosos, teniendo en cuenta la incertidumbre cuando la información sobre los parámetros geomecánicos de entrada es limitada. En mecánica de rocas, los métodos determinísticos y probabilísticos son ampliamente utilizados en el proceso de toma decisiones. No obstante, el primero no considera la incertidumbre y el segundo tiene limitaciones para representar la incertidumbre epistémica y tiene que asumir la distribución de probabilidad de las variables de entrada. Por lo tanto, se recurre a la Teoría de la Evidencia como una herramienta para describir la incertidumbre aleatoria y epistémica de los parámetros geomecánicos y propagarla a través de modelos de equilibrio límite, en los que la geometría es controlada por la orientación de las discontinuidades. Para llevar a cabo una mejor descripción de la variabilidad en el macizo, el proyecto utilizó fotogrametría de corto alcance, lo que permitió obtener series de datos robustas y confiables de la geometría de las discontinuidades, que fue modelada como una variable aleatoria con distribución Kent. Además, se desarrolló un procedimiento para actualizar los análisis de confiabilidad teniendo en cuenta la distribución de probabilidad de la orientación de las discontinuidades. La aplicación de la metodología en un talud rocoso de una mina de arenisca mostró su aplicabilidad a proyectos reales. Consecuentemente, la principal contribución de este trabajo es la generación de un marco de referencia para efectuar la evolución de confiabilidad de taludes rocoso basado en la teoría de la evidencia que permite combinar las series robustas de la orientación de los planos de discontinuidad, con información limitada de sus parámetros de resistencia, que puede ser actualizada a medida que se genera nueva información.This research project aims to develop a methodology to perform rock slope stability analysis considering the aleatory and epistemic uncertainty when the information on geomechanical parameters is limited. In rock mechanics, deterministic and probabilistic approaches are widely used in the decision-making process. However, the earlier does not consider the uncertainty, and the latter has limitations to account for the epistemic uncertainty and requires assumptions on probability distributions when robust data sets are not available. Therefore, we resorted to the Evidence Theory as a tool to describe the epistemic and aleatory uncertainty of input geomechanical variables and propagate them trough limit equilibrium models, in which the geometry is controlled by the joints orientation. To perform a better description of the variability of the rock mas properties, the project utilized a short-range photogrammetry system, which allowed us to have robust and reliable data sets on joints geometry to be modeled as Kent distributed variables. Besides, we suggested a procedure to update the reliability analysis acknowledging that orientations follow a Kent distribution. The application of the methodology to a rock slope in a sandstone mine showed its suitability to be applied in actual engineering projects. Consequently, the main contribution of this project is an rock slope evidence theory reliability-based framework for combining robust data sets on joints orientation, with limited information on geomechanical parameters, that can be updated as new information is available.ColcienciasAnalisis Cuantitativo de Riesgo en Taludes MinerosLínea de Investigación: Geotecnia y Riesgos Geo ambientalesDoctorad
