Unidentified Infrared Discrete Emission Bands

Unidentified Infrared emission bands (UIBs) are infrared discrete emissions from circumstellar regions, interstellar media (ISM), star-forming regions, and extragalactic objects for which the identity of the emitting materials is unknown. The main infrared features occur around peaks at 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, 11.2, and 12.7 μm with the photon’s rest energy at the peaks 0.376, 0.200, 0.161, 0.144, 0.111, and 0.098 eV, respectively. The UIB emission phenomenon has been studied for about forty five years. The prevailing hypothesis is that the materials responsible for UIB are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules. PAHs are thought to be one of the main forms in which carbon exists in space. And yet, not a single member of this group of compounds had been identified in space definitively until now [1]. In frames of Hypersphere World-Universe Model (WUM), we introduced Dark Matter (DM) particles, named DIONs, with the rest energy 0.199 eV and an energy density of 68.8% of the total energy density of the World. DIONs compose Outer shells of DM Supercluster’s Cores—the main objects of the World [2]. In this paper, we give an explanation of UIB emission based on the self-annihilation of DM particles DIONs and biDIONs (DIONs pairs) with a rest energy about 0.38 eV that depends on the binding energy. To the best of our knowledge, WUM is the only cosmological model in existence that is consistent with UIB emission phenomenon.

Parallels between Russell's viper(Daboia russelii) and hump-nosed viper(Hypnak species) bites in the central hills of Sri Lanka amidst the heavy burden of unidentified snake bites

Objective:To describe the epidemiology of snake bite in the region and attempt to compare proven Russell’s viper with hump-nosed viper bites.Methods:All snake bite admissions to the Toxicology Unit of Teaching Hospital Peradeniya over three year from 2006 were included. Results:Of the 776 snakebites,665(86%) were unidentified and non-envenomed.Humpnosed viper and Russell’s viper accounted for 55(7%) and 40(5%) bites respectively,of them, incriminated snakes were found in 36(65%) and 19(48%) cases.The cobra bites-5,krait bites-0. The median ages:Russell’s viper bites-41(range 16-66),hump-nosed viper bites-42(range 15- 75).The gender incidence,time of bite(】58%daytime) were similar.In hump-nosed viper bite; upper limb involved in 13(36%),happened at home garden in 22(61%),none in paddy fields.In Russell’s viper bite;6(33%) occurred in paddy fields.Dry bites were similar at 5%.In humpnosed viper bite:local effects 94%,coagulopathy 3%,acute renal failure 3%and one patient died.In Russell’s viper bite;local effects 84%,coagulopathy 53%,neurotoxicity 21%.Abdominal pain occurred only in Russell’s viper bites 10(53%).Conclusions:Overwhelming numbers of unidentified,non-envenomed snakebites are common in the central hills.Some distinctive differences were observed between Russell’s viper and hump-nosed viper bites.

Humanitarian action in academic institutions:a case study in the ethical stewardship of unidentified forensic cases

Forensic anthropologists are often responsible for the management of long-term unidentified individuals.Others have contextualised these decedents—many of whom likely belonged to socially,politically,and/or economically marginalised groups in life—as part of a larger identification crisis in the US.However,there has been little discussion surrounding how this humanitarian crisis has manifested in academic institutions,where anthropologists often provide medicolegal consultation and act as long-term stewards of the unidentified.The Identification&Repatriation Initiative was created at the Forensic Anthropology Centre at Texas State University(FACTS)to recognise and investigate unidentified human remains in long-term storage.Our paper outlines common challenges that were encountered during our initial reassessment of unidentified cases at FACTS,emphasising the detrimental impacts of inconsistent procedures,loss of context,and case fatigue.It is likely that other academic institutions face similar challenges,and by highlighting these issues we hope to help initiate a larger conversation concerning ethical stewardship of human remains in these settings.By incorporating humanitarian perspectives into forensic casework,anthropologists in academia can better advocate for the long-term unidentified.

Forensic data management and database systems in forensic investigations for cases of missing and unidentified persons in Brazil

Forensic investigations,especially those related to missing persons and unidentified remains,produce different types of data that must be managed and understood.The data collected and produced are extensive and originate from various sources:the police,non-governmental organizations(NGOs),medical examiner offices,specialised forensic teams,family members,and others.Some examples of information include,but are not limited to,the investigative background information,excavation data of burial sites,antemortem data on missing persons,and postmortem data on the remains of unidentified individuals.These complex data must be stored in a secured place,analysed,compared,shared,and then reported to the investigative actors and the public,especially the families of missing persons,who should be kept informed of the investigation.Therefore,a data management system with the capability of performing the tasks relevant to the goals of the investigation and the identification of an individual,while respecting the deceased and their families,is critical for standardising investigations.Data management is crucial to assure the quality of investigative processes,and it must be recognised as a holistic integrated system.The aim of this article is to discuss some of the most important components of an effective forensic data management system.The discussion is enriched by examples,challenges,and lessons learned from the erratic development and launching of databases for missing and unidentified persons in Brazil.The main objective of this article is to bring attention to the urgent need for an effective and integrated system in Brazil.

Neuroprotective effect of Neuro-EPO in neurodegenerative diseases:“Alea jacta est”

Our common home,planet Earth,is inhabited by more than 7 billion human beings.The average life expectancy currently estimated for men is^69 years,with strong differences among countries.Currently,neurodegenerative diseases are currently the leading cause of death and disability worldwide.In clinical use and neuroscience research,a solution for an effective diagnosis is in progress,but a prophylactic treatment to counteract this long-lasting plague for humanity is still unidentified.

Classification Model with High Deviation for Intrusion Detection on System Call Traces

A new classification model for host intrusion detection based on the unidentified short sequences and RIPPER algorithm is proposed. The concepts of different short sequences on the system call traces are strictly defined on the basis of in-depth analysis of completeness and correctness of pattern databases. Labels of short sequences are predicted by learned RIPPER rule set and the nature of the unidentified short sequences is confirmed by statistical method. Experiment results indicate that the classification model increases clearly the deviation between the attack and the normal traces and improves detection capability against known and unknown attacks.

Prenatal Genotyping of Four Common Oculocutaneous Albinism Genes in 51 Chinese Families

Oculocutaneous albinism（OCA） is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hypopigmentation in eyes,hair and skin,accompanied with vision loss.Currently,six genes have been identified as causative genes for non-syndromic OCA（OCA-1w4,6,7）,and ten genes for syndromic OCA（HPS-1e9,CHS-1）.Genetic counseling of 51 Chinese OCA families（39 OCA-1 with mutations in the TYR gene,6 OCA-2 with mutations in the OCA2 gene,4 OCA-4 with mutations in the SLC45A2 gene,1 HPS-1（Hermanskye Pudlak syndrome-1） with mutation in the HPS1 gene,and 1 mixed OCA-1 and OCA-4） led us to perform the prenatal genetic testing of OCA using amniotic fluid cells through the implementation of our optimized strategy.In our cohort,eleven previously unidentified alleles（PUAs）（5 in TYR,2 in OCA2,and 4 in SLC45A2） were found.Three missense PUAs（p.C112 R,p.H363 R and p.G379 V of TYR） and one in-frame deletional PUA（p.S222 del of SLC24A5） led to fetuses with OCA when co-inherited with other disease causative alleles.Three PUAs（p.P152 H and p.W272 X of TYR,p.A486 T of SLC24A5） identified in the OCA probands did not co-transmit with known pathological alleles and thus gave rise to unaffected fetuses.Four PUAs（p.Q83 X and p.A658 T of TYR,p.G161 R and p.G366 R of SLC24A5） did not transmit to the unaffected fetuses.In addition,the in vitro transfection assays showed that the p.S192 Y variant of TYR produced less pigment compared to the wild-type allele.A fetus with a digenic carrier of OCA-1 and OCA-4 was unaffected.In combination with functional assays,the family inheritance pattern is useful for the evaluation of pathogenicity of PUAs and genetic counseling of OCA.
