Symplectic structure free Chern-Simons Theory

, 1998
The second class constraints algebra of the abelian Chern-Simons theory is rigorously studied in terms of the Hamiltonian embedding in order to obtain the first class constraint system.

Optimizing Dizziness Management: Impact of Audiology Triage on Care Efficiency

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the impact of a vestibular audiology‐driven triage system on care efficiency for patients presenting with dizziness. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of all patients who underwent comprehensive Balance Function Testing (BFT) at the University of Pennsylvania vestibular clinic between September 2019 and June ...

Growing trees on farms: Navigating the goals and values of farmers

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural landscapes represent critical contexts for advancing policy objectives related to tree cover expansion. This paper explores how farmers' values influence their willingness or ability to grow trees on farms. Research is based on 49 interviews and two focus groups with farmers in England and draws on two social science research ...

Prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of enterotoxigenic extra-intestinal Bacteroides fragilis among 13-year collection of isolates in Kuwait

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Some strains of Bacteroides fragilis species are associated with diarrhea as a result of enterotoxin production (bft or fragilysin). Fragilysin is activated by C11 protease (fpn) and together with C10 protease (bfp) play a significant role in ...

Stayability in the Era of Early‐Challenged Females: Genetic Parameters and Correlations With Economically Relevant Traits

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate the variance components, heritabilities and genetic correlations between four new different categories of stayability (STAY48‐2, STAY48‐3, STAY54‐2, STAY54‐3) with weight at 240 days of age (W240), weight at 450 days of age (W450), scrotal circumference at 365 days of age (SC365), age at puberty in males (APM ...

Genetic Parameter Estimation for Plasma Biomarkers Associated With Energy Reserves During Critical Physiological Stages in Sheep

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability of ruminants to mobilise and restore body reserves (BR) over time, referred to as BR dynamics, is currently considered an interesting biological component to be included in breeding programs targeting enhanced BR resilience. However, genetic studies of proxies for BR levels and BRD remain scarce, particularly in small ruminants ...

Genetic Parameters for Novel Feedlot Profitability‐Related Traits in Nelore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate (co)variance components and genetic parameters for accumulated profitability (AFP) and profit per kilogram of liveweight gain (PFT), and their relationships with weight at 450 days of age (W450), scrotal circumference at 365 days of age (SC365), age at first calving (AFC), probability of precocious calving at 30 ...

Making BFT Protocols Really Adaptive [PDF]

2015 IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium, 2015
Many state-machine Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) protocols have been introduced so far. Each protocol addressed a different subset of conditions and use-cases. However, if the underlying conditions of a service span different subsets, choosing a single protocol will likely not be a best fit.

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.
