Stochastic quantization and holographic Wilsonian renormalization group of scalar theory with generic mass, self-interaction and multiple trace deformation

We explore the mathematical relationship between holographic Wilsonian renormalization group(HWRG) and stochastic quantization(SQ) of scalar field theory with its generic mass, self-interaction and $n$-multiple-trace deformation on the conformal $d$-dimensional boundary defined in AdS$_{d+1}$ spacetime. We understand that once we define our Euclidean action, $S_E$ as $S_E\equiv -2S_B$, then the stochastic process will reconstruct the holographic Wilsonian renormalization group data via solving Langevin equation and computing stochastic correlation functions. The $S_B$ is given by $S_B=S_{\rm ct}+S_{\rm def}$, where $S_{\rm ct}$ is the boundary counter term and $S_{\rm def}$ is the boundary deformation which gives a boundary condition. In our study, we choose the boundary condition adding (marginal)$n$-multiple trace deformation to the holographic dual field theory. In this theory, we establish maps bewteen ficticious time, $t$ evolution of stochastic $n$-point, ($2n-2$)-point correlation functions and the (AdS)radial, $r$ evolution of $n$-multiple-trace and ($2n-2$)-multiple-trace deformations respectively once we take identifications of $r=t$ and between some of constants appearing in both sides.Comment: 41 pages and 2 figure

Holographic entanglement entropy probe on spontaneous symmetry breaking with vector order

We study holographic entanglement entropy in 5-dimensional charged black brane geometry obtained from Einstein-SU(2)Yang-Mills theory defined in asymptotically AdS space. This gravity system undergoes second order phase transition near its critical point affected by a spatial component of the Yang-Mills fields, which is normalizable mode of the solution. This is known as phase transition between isotropic and anisotropic phases. We get analytic solutions of holographic entanglement entropies by utilizing the solution of bulk spacetime geometry given in arXiv:1109.4592, where we consider subsystems defined on AdS boundary of which shapes are wide and thin slabs and a cylinder. It turns out that the entanglement entropies near the critical point shows scaling behavior such that for both of the slabs and cylinder, $\Delta_\varepsilon S\sim\left(1-\frac{T}{T_c}\right)^\beta$ and the critical exponent $\beta=1$, where $\Delta_\varepsilon S\equiv S^{iso}-S^{aniso}$, and $S^{iso}$ denotes the entanglement entropy in isotropic phase whereas $S^{aniso}$ denotes that in anisotropic phase. We suggest a quantity $O_{12}\equiv S_1-S_2$ as a new order parameter near the critical point, where $S_1$ is entanglement entropy when the slab is perpendicular to the direction of the vector order whereas $S_2$ is that when the slab is parallel to the vector order. $O_{12}=0$ in isotropic phase but in anisotropic phase, the order parameter becomes non-zero showing the same scaling behavior. Finally, we show that even near the critical point, the first law of entanglement entropy is hold. Especially, we find that the entanglement temperature for the cylinder is $\mathcal T_{cy}=\frac{c_{ent}}{a}$, where $c_{ent}=0.163004\pm0.000001$ and $a$ is the radius of the cylinder.Comment: 1+29 pages, 4 figure

Suppression of lung cancer progression by biocompatible glycerol triacrylate–spermine-mediated delivery of shAkt1

Background: Polyethylenimine (PEI)-based nonviral gene-delivery systems are commonly employed because of their high transfection efficiency. However, the toxic nature of PEI is a significant obstacle in clinical gene therapy. In this study, we developed biocompatible glycerol triacrylate-spermine (GT-SPE) polyspermine as a nanosized gene carrier for potential lung cancer gene therapy. Methods: The GT-SPE was synthesized using the Michael addition reaction between GT and SPE. The molecular weight was characterized using gel permeability chromatography multiangle laser light scattering and the composition of the polymer was analyzed using proton nuclear magnetic resonance. Results: The GT-SPE successfully protected the DNA from nucleases. The average particle size of the GT-SPE was 121 nm with a zeta potential of +23.45 mV. The GT-SPE was found to be less toxic than PEI for various cell lines, as well as for a murine model. Finally, our results showed that the GT-SPE/small hairpin Akt1 (shAkt1) complex suppressed lung tumorigenesis in a K-ras(LA1) lung cancer mice model by inducing apoptosis through the Akt signaling pathway and cell cycle arrest. Aerosol delivered GT-SPE/shAkt1, which reduced matrix metalloproteinase-9 activity and suppressed the expression levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, as well as vascular endothelial growth factors and CD31, which are known proliferation and angiogenesis markers, respectively. Conclusion: Our data suggest that GT-SPE may be a candidate for short hairpin-shaped RNA-based aerosol lung cancer gene therapy

Re-insufflation after deflation of a pneumoperitoneum is a risk factor for CO2 embolism during laparoscopic prostatectomy -A case report-

Although symptomatic carbon dioxide (CO2) embolism is rare, it recognized as a potentially fatal complication of laparoscopic surgery. Sudden hemodynamic instability could be a CO2 embolism especially during insufflation. A 65-year-old man received laparoscopic prostatectomy for 5 hours under CO2 pneumoperitoneum without any problem. After resection of prostate, it was stopped following deflation. Thirty minutes later, peumoperitoneum was re-induced to continue the operation. Shortly after re-insufflation, the patient revealed hemodynamic instability suggested a CO2 embolism; severe hypotension, tachyarrythmia, hypoxemia, increased CVP, and changed end-tidal CO2. Gas insufflation was stopped. He was managed with Durant's position, fluid and cardiotonics for 20 minutes. The residual was completed by open laparotomy. Re-insufflation, inducing gas entry through the injured vessels, might be a risk factor for CO2 embolism in this case. The risk to the patient may be minimized by the surgical team's awareness of CO2 embolism and continuous intra-operative monitoring of end-tidal CO2

Strong ferromagnetism in Pt-coated ZnCoO: The role of interstitial hydrogen

We observed strong ferromagnetism in ZnCoO as a result of high concentration hydrogen absorption. Coating ZnCoO with Pt layer, and ensuing hydrogen treatment with a high isostatic pressure resulted in a highly increased carrier concentration of 10(21)/cm(3). This hydrogen treatment induced a strong ferromagnetism at low temperature that turned to superparamagnetism at about 140 K. We performed density functional method computations and found that the interstitial H dopants promote the ferromagnetic ordering between scattered Co dopants. On the other hand, interstitial hydrogen can decrease the magnetic exchange energy of Co-H-Co complexes, leading to a reduction in the blocking temperature.open7

Cholestatic Hepatitis and Thrombocytosis in a Secondary Syphilis Patient

The incidence of acute hepatitis in syphilis patient is rare. First of all, our patient presented with hepatitis comorbid with thrombocytosis. To our knowledge, this is only the second report of syphilitic hepatitis with thrombocytosis. The 42-yr-old male complained of flulike symptoms and skin eruptions on his palms and soles. Laboratory findings suggested an acute hepatitis and thrombocytosis. Serologic test results were positive for VDRL. He recovered from his symptoms and elevated liver related enzymes with treatment. Because syphilitic hepatitis can present without any typical signs of accompanying syphilis, syphilis should be considered as a possible cause in acute hepatitis patients
