Effect of random on-site energies on the critical temperature of a lattice Bose gas

We study the effect of random on-site energies on the critical temperature of a non-interacting Bose gas on a lattice. In our derivation the on-site energies are distributed according a Gaussian probability distribution function having vanishing average and variance $v_o^2$. By using the replicated action obtained by averaging on the disorder, we perform a perturbative expansion for the Green functions of the disordered system. We evaluate the shift of the chemical potential induced by the disorder and we compute, for $v_o^2 << 1$, the critical temperature for condensation. We find that, for large filling, disorder slightly enhances the critical temperature for condensation.Comment: To appear in Laser Physics, issue on the LPHYS'08 conference (Trondheim, 2008

EU/US/CTAD Task Force: Lessons Learned from Recent and Current Alzheimer's Prevention Trials

At a meeting of the EU/US/Clinical Trials in Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) Task Force in December 2016, an international group of investigators from industry, academia, and regulatory agencies reviewed lessons learned from ongoing and planned prevention trials, which will help guide future clinical trials of AD treatments, particularly in the pre-clinical space. The Task Force discussed challenges that need to be addressed across all aspects of clinical trials, calling for innovation in recruitment and retention, infrastructure development, and the selection of outcome measures. While cognitive change provides a marker of disease progression across the disease continuum, there remains a need to identify the optimal assessment tools that provide clinically meaningful endpoints. Patient- and informant-reported assessments of cognition and function may be useful but present additional challenges. Imaging and other biomarkers are also essential to maximize the efficiency of and the information learned from clinical trials

Assessing Philippine stock market integration: Evidences from the 2008 credit crisis

The paper aims to assess the existence of integration between the Philippine stock market and the ASEAN 5+3 and US stock markets. The researchers used both daily and weekly closing stock price indices of all nine (9) countries from January 2000 to January 2010. Testing will be done for the full sample and for two (2) periods, namely the pre crisis (2000-2007) and crisis period (2008-2010), to show the effect of the 2008 credit crisis in the degree of integration among the countries. Using the Johansen and Julius vector error correction model (VECM) approach, the researchers were able to verify that almost all stock markets, except for China and Thailand, influence the long run relationship among stock price indices for the full daily data. Compared to its developing neighbors, the Philippines is adversely affected by well-developed markets such as US, Japan and Singapore. Furthermore, during the crisis, more variable contributed to the long run equilibrium of the stock markets and that the speed of adjustment coefficients became faster implying that the crisis strengthened the degree of integration among stock markets. The weekly samples showed a similar result with daily data but with greater magnitude providing stronger speed of adjustments and more volatile impulse responses and variance decomposition. The paper concludes that the Philippines is integrated with the other markets tested with the recent credit crisis strengthening the integration process. The Philippine\u27s close stock market ties with developed economies also makes it more feasible for it to integrate with regional markets to achieve financial stability

Experiential Stress and Physiological Stress: Implication of Coherence. A Replication and Extension Study

The physiological response to stress and an individual’s subjective perception of stress are two systems vital to enabling adaptive responses to dangerous stimuli and maintaining individual well-being. When the body’s biological stress response and psychological interpretations of stress become misaligned, referred to as a low stress-heart rate coherence, detriments to health can occur (Sommerfeldt et al., 2019). Objective measures of physical stress, such as interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein, pro-inflammatory biomarkers of stress, and heart rate were analyzed in association with self-reported stress, measures of well-being, anxiety, and depression in a pool of Midlife participants from the United States. The present study utilized this data to replicate analyses performed by the original paper, “Individual Differences in the Association Between Subjective Stress and Heart Rate Are Related to Psychological and Physical Well-Being”. Preliminary findings from this effort indicate inconsistencies between standard statistical values due to missing data, however still illustrate a significant association between stress-heart rate coherence and wellbeing. We additionally attempted to explore the data further by running all statistical analyses for just white participants, hypothesizing that greater stress-heart rate coherence might be limited to this overrepresented demographic. We could not confirm nor deny the prediction, as we did not have access to full data to run analyses with minority data. In any case, all analyses yielded positive associations between individual well-being and stress heart-rate coherence, although further studies with more representative samples are imperative in understanding the generalizability and mechanisms for coherence
