Simultaneous fMRI and metabolic imaging of the brain using spice
No full textSubmission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2020-12-01In this thesis, we propose a novel approach to achieve simultaneous acquisition of high resolution MRSI and fMRI in a fast scan. The proposed acquisition scheme adds an EVI-based sequence module into a subspace-based imaging technique called SPICE (SPectroscopic Imaging by exploiting spatiospectral CorrElation). With the features of ultrashort TE/short TR, no water and lipid suppression, extended k-space coverage by prolonged EPSI readout and highly sparse sampling, the data acquisition captures both the spatiospectral information of brain metabolites and the dynamic information of brain functional activation. The data processing and reconstruction are based on the subspace modeling and involve pre-trained basis functions and spatial prior information. Moreover, the complementary information between fMRI and MRSI is utilized to further improve the quality of both fMRI and metabolic imaging. The in vivo experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve whole brain covered, simultaneous fMRI at spatial resolution of 3.0 × 3.0 × 1.8 mm, temporal resolution 3 seconds, along with metabolic imaging at nominal spatial resolution of 1.9 × 2.3 × 3.0 mm in a single 6-minute scan. The high-quality metabolic maps, spatially resolved spectra, resting-state functional networks and task time courses corresponding to the task events can all be obtained in the in vivo scans. This technique, when fully developed, will become a powerful tool to study the brain metabolism and function activities.The student, Rong Guo, accepted the attached license on 2018-11-20 at 10:32.The student, Rong Guo, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-11-20 at 10:39.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-11-20 at 14:11.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #13106 on 2019-02-08 at 11:39:09Made available in DSpace on 2019-02-08T18:39:47Z (GMT).

Toward a Motivation Model of Pragmatics/ Rong Chen.
No full textIn English.With the "discursive turn" has come a distrust - a complete rejection by some - of theories that seek deeper reasons for surface phenomena. Rong Chen argues that this distrust, with its accompanying overemphasis on specificity and fluidity of linguistic meaning and social values, is unwarranted and unhelpful. Drawing on insights from social theories and various strands of pragmatics, he proposes a motivation model of pragmatics (MMP), contending that language use can be adequately, coherently, and elegantly studied via the motivation behind it in its varied and dynamic contexts. The model, with its well-laid out components, is then applied to (im)politeness research, cross-cultural pragmatics, diachronic pragmatics, discourse and genre analysis, conversation analysis, identity construction, and the study of metaphor, sarcasm, parody, and lying. MMP is thus a framework aimed at accounting for fluidity with stable notions, specificity with general principles, and differences with similar underlying factors. As such, the book should appeal to students of pragmatics, (im)politeness, conversation analysis, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, communication, sociology, and psychology.Frontmatter -- Foreword -- Contents -- List of figures -- List of tables -- Chapter 1 Pragmatics then and now -- Chapter 2 A motivation model of pragmatics (MMP) -- Chapter 3 MMP and (im)politeness -- Chapter 4 MMP and cross-/intercultural variation -- Chapter 5 MMP and diachronic pragmatics -- Chapter 6 MMP and discourse -- Chapter 7 MMP and metaphor -- Chapter 8 MMP and the non-literal -- Afterword -- References -- Appendix -- Subject index -- Author index1 online resource (XIII, 333 p.)
Metapetrocosmea alba X. R. Zheng, P. S Zou & S. P. Dai 2023, sp. nov.
No full textMetapetrocosmea alba X. R. Zheng, P. S Zou & S. P. Dai, sp. nov. (Figs. 1 & 2). Type:— VIETNAM. Thua Thien Hue Province: Hue City, Bach Ma National Park, the lowland montane, ca. 100 m a.s.l., specimens were collected from wild plants introduced and cultivated at the nursery of the Guangzhou Institute of Forestry and Landscape Architecture, 16 Sep. 2022, Xi-Rong Zheng ZXR216 (holotype: IBSC!; isotype: IBK!, VNMN!). Diagnosis:— The new species is most similar to M. poilanei in the distinct stem and similar calyx, but radically differs by its longer (12–14 mm vs. 10 mm) and white (vs. light violet) obliquely funnelform (vs. obliquely campanulate) corolla and three (vs. two) staminodes. And it is easy to distinguish the new species from M. cycnostyla by its distinct (vs. very short) stem, leaf blade shape (ovate or broadly ovate vs. elliptic) and size (4–8 × 3–5 cm vs. 2–3 × 1.5–2 cm). Description:— Herb, perennial, stem erect, 10–15 cm tall, sparsely villous. Leaves alternate; petiole 2–8 cm long, sparsely villous; blade carnose, adaxially sparsely glandular villous, abaxially glabrous, ovate or broadly ovate, 4– 8 × 3–5 cm, apex subacute, base lightly peltate, round or cordate, margin shallowly obtuse-dentate or shallowly undulateserrate, slightly curved, densely villous; venation penninerved, lateral veins 5–6 on each side of mid-rib. Inflorescence compound cymes, axillary, fasciculate; peduncle 10–18 cm long, densely glandular villous; bracts 2, ovate, 5–9 × ca. 5 mm, abaxially glandular villous, adaxially glabrous; bracteoles 2, ovate, ca. 5 × 3 mm, abaxially glandular villous, adaxially glabrous; pedicel 8–10 mm long, densely glandular villous. Calyx 5-parted to the base, with lobes lanceolate, ca. 5 × 1.5 mm, margin entire, outside densely glandular villous, inside sparsely glandular villous. Corolla obliquely funnelform, zygomorphic, white, 12–14 mm long, ca. 3 mm wide at the throat, outside densely pubescent, inside glabrous; tube ca. 12 mm long; limb distinctly 2-lipped; adaxial lip 2-lobed, lobes semi-circular, ca. 3 × 2 mm, abaxial lip 3-lobed, lobes semi-circular, ca. 4 × 3 mm. Fertile stamens 2, adnate to the base of corolla tube, coherent in pair at the belly of anther, filaments ca. 4 mm long; staminode 3, adnate to the base of corolla tube, ca. 1.5 mm long. Disc ring-like, ca. 0.8 mm high, glabrous. Pistil ca. 10 mm long; ovary linear, densely glandular pubescent, ca. 4 mm long; style linear, ca. 6 mm long; stigma obtrapeziform, broad, flat and emarginate. Capsule obliquely narrowly oblong, ca. 11 mm long, 1.5–2 mm in diameter, slightly curved, dehiscing loculicidally to base, splitting along one suture, straight, not twisted. Distribution and habitat:— This new species only occurs in a lowland montane area, Bach Ma National Park, Hue City, Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam. The plants grow on the moist rock by the stream, in association with a species of Begonia L. and several fern species. Provisionally conservation status:— This species has been only observed from the type locality and the accurate distribution range has not been ascertained. More information of its distribution and number of individuals requires further field investigation for accurate evaluation. This species is therefore preliminarily assigned as “Data Deficient” [DD] following IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria (IUCN, 2012). Etymology:— The species epithet refers to the white colour of calyx and corolla. Notes:— In our nursery, this species blooms almost all year round and its magnificent white flower clusters make it an excellent ornamental plant.Published as part of Zheng, Xi-Rong, Zou, Pei-Shan, Chen, Ying, Vu, Tien-Chinh & Dai, Se-Ping, 2023, Metapetrocosmea alba (Gesneriaceae), a new species from central Vietnam, pp. 199-204 in Phytotaxa 603 (2) on page 200, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.603.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/815806
