Background
Depression and anxiety are common and highly comorbid, and their comorbidity is associated with poorer outcomes posing clinical and public health concerns. We evaluated the polygenic contribution to comorbid depression and anxiety, and to each in isolation.
MethodsDiagnostic codes were extracted from electronic health records for four biobanks [N = 177 865 including 138 632 European (77.9%), 25 612 African (14.4%), and 13 621 Hispanic (7.7%) ancestry participants]. The outcome was a four-level variable representing the depression/anxiety diagnosis group: neither, depression-only, anxiety-only, and comorbid. Multinomial regression was used to test for association of depression and anxiety polygenic risk scores (PRSs) with the outcome while adjusting for principal components of ancestry.
ResultsIn total, 132 960 patients had neither diagnosis (74.8%), 16 092 depression-only (9.0%), 13 098 anxiety-only (7.4%), and 16 584 comorbid (9.3%). In the European meta-analysis across biobanks, both PRSs were higher in each diagnosis group compared to controls. Notably, depression-PRS (OR 1.20 per s.d. increase in PRS; 95% CI 1.18–1.23) and anxiety-PRS (OR 1.07; 95% CI 1.05–1.09) had the largest effect when the comorbid group was compared with controls. Furthermore, the depression-PRS was significantly higher in the comorbid group than the depression-only group (OR 1.09; 95% CI 1.06–1.12) and the anxiety-only group (OR 1.15; 95% CI 1.11–1.19) and was significantly higher in the depression-only group than the anxiety-only group (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.02–1.09), showing a genetic risk gradient across the conditions and the comorbidity.
ConclusionsThis study suggests that depression and anxiety have partially independent genetic liabilities and the genetic vulnerabilities to depression and anxiety make distinct contributions to comorbid depression and anxiety.

Objective:
We examined the return on investment (ROI) from the Endovascular Reperfusion Alberta (ERA) project, a provincially funded population-wide strategy to improve access to endovascular therapy (EVT), to inform policy regarding sustainability.
Methods:We calculated net benefit (NB) as benefit minus cost and ROI as benefit divided by cost. Patients treated with EVT and their controls were identified from the ESCAPE trial. Using the provincial administrative databases, their health services utilization (HSU), including inpatient, outpatient, physician, long-term care services, and prescription drugs, were compared. This benefit was then extrapolated to the number of patients receiving EVT increased in 2018 and 2019 by the ERA implementation. We used three time horizons, including short (90 days), medium (1 year), and long-term (5 years).
Results:EVT was associated with a reduced gross HSU cost for all the three time horizons. Given the total costs of ERA were $2.04 million in 2018 ($11,860/patient) and $3.73 million in 2019 ($17,070/patient), NB per patient in 2018 (2019) was estimated at −$7,313 (−$12,524), $54,592 ($49,381), and $47,070 ($41,859) for short, medium, and long-term time horizons, respectively. Total NB for the province in 2018 (2019) were −$1.26 (−$2.74), $9.40 ($10.78), and $8.11 ($9.14) million; ROI ratios were 0.4 (0.3), 5.6 (3.9) and 5.0 (3.5). Probabilities of ERA being cost saving were 39% (31%), 97% (96%), and 94% (91%), for short, medium, and long-term time horizons, respectively.
Conclusion:The ERA program was cost saving in the medium and long-term time horizons. Results emphasized the importance of considering a broad range of HSU and long-term impact to capture the full ROI.

Background:
Acute ischemic stroke may affect women and men differently. We aimed to evaluate sex differences in outcomes of endovascular treatment (EVT) for ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion in a population-based study in Alberta, Canada.
Methods and Results:Over a 3-year period (April 2015–March 2018), 576 patients fit the inclusion criteria of our study and constituted the EVT group of our analysis. The medical treatment group of the ESCAPE trial had 150 patients. Thus, our total sample size was 726. We captured outcomes in clinical routine using administrative data and a linked database methodology. The primary outcome of our study was home-time. Home-time refers to the number of days that the patient was back at their premorbid living situation without an increase in the level of care within 90 days of the index stroke event. In adjusted analysis, EVT was associated with an increase of 90-day home-time by an average of 6.08 (95% CI −2.74–14.89, p-value 0.177) days in women compared to an average of 11.20 (95% CI 1.94–20.46, p-value 0.018) days in men. Further analysis revealed that the association between EVT and 90-day home-time in women was confounded by age and onset-to-treatment time.
Conclusions:We found a nonsignificant nominal reduction of 90-day home-time gain for women compared to men in this province-wide population-based study of EVT for large vessel occlusion, which was only partially explained by confounding.

Good education requires student experiences that deliver lessons about practice as well as theory and that encourage students to work for the public good—especially in the operation of democratic institutions (Dewey 1923; Dewy 1938). We report on an evaluation of the pedagogical value of a research project involving 23 colleges and universities across the country. Faculty trained and supervised students who observed polling places in the 2016 General Election. Our findings indicate that this was a valuable learning experience in both the short and long terms. Students found their experiences to be valuable and reported learning generally and specifically related to course material. Postelection, they also felt more knowledgeable about election science topics, voting behavior, and research methods. Students reported interest in participating in similar research in the future, would recommend other students to do so, and expressed interest in more learning and research about the topics central to their experience. Our results suggest that participants appreciated the importance of elections and their study. Collectively, the participating students are engaged and efficacious—essential qualities of citizens in a democracy.

The physiological demands of weight-pulling dogs have yet to be investigated. Two groups of competitive weight-pulling dogs both underwent two identical pull series 3 h apart. The control group (n 8) was compared with a group fed a rapidly digestible carbohydrate and protein supplement after the first pull series (n 9). Blood was drawn before and after each pull series as well as at 15 and 30 min after the first pull series finished. Biochemistry values remained unremarkable throughout the study in both groups regardless of supplementation or exercise over time. Lactic acid showed mild significant increases post-exercise (2·1 (sd 1·2) mmol/l) compared with baseline (1·4 (sd 0·3) mmol/l; P = 0·03) after the initial pull series. When examining the effects of time there was a significant increase in insulin from baseline (median of 10·8 (range 6·8–17·4) μIU/ml) compared with 30 min after supplementation (17·0 (range 8·1–33·0) μIU/ml) and at 3 h after supplementation (19·2 (range 9·7–53·4) μIU/ml). In the treatment group there was also a time effect, with glucagon being elevated from baseline (median of 100 (range 79–115) pg/ml) compared with 30 min after supplementation (114 (range 90–183) pg/ml) and after the second pull series (131 (range 107–152) pg/ml). Evaluation of each dog's ability to pull the same or greater amount of weight on the second pull series revealed no significant differences. In conclusion, weight-pulling dogs have mild elevations in lactate reflecting little anaerobic metabolism compared with other canine sprinting athletes; hormonal changes associated with carbohydrate absorption are reflected within the treatment group, and supplementation had no effect on performance.

Chemical bath deposition (CBD) is a commonly used method of depositing cadmium sulfide (CdS) films for photovoltaic application. The method is based on decomposition of a sulfur source in an alkaline solution of a cadmium source on the surface of the Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) substrate. On the lab scale the CdS film is deposited by submerging a 1” square CIGS substrate in a heated beaker containing the chemical bath. This batch processing method is the one used for record-performing devices. There is an ongoing effort at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to scale-up the CBD process to deposit CdS films on 6” square substrate. Efforts are focused at designing both batch and flow reactors for depositing uniform, device quality CdS films on larger substrates. Batch reactor designs involve reproducing the deposition process in the beaker on a bigger scale with minimal chemical waste, while flow reactors are designed for continuous processing, such as encountered in roll-to-roll manufacturing lines.

The commercial synthesis of carbon nanotube sheets will be described. This process involves the following steps: chemical vapor deposition of long CNTs from mixed hydrocarbon type fuels, creation and stabilization of the catalyst, and a large textile forming device. Movies of the growth process will be presented and described. Further the electronic properties of these textiles will be presented and discussed as: (1) A function of temperature from −4 °K to 500 °C, (2) A function frequency from 0 up to about 30 GHz and (3) In a magnetic field up to 1000 Oe. It is shown that these yarns have semiconductor properties but surprisingly exhibit apparent metallic like conduction high at high frequencies. The thermoelectric behavior of the textiles (and yarns) made of this material will be discussed as will the applications in secondary batteries. A power level of up to three watts per gram for the thermoelectric material has been demonstrated.

The Working Group was formed at the request of the Board of DivisionIII and approved by the IAU Executive committee in March 2004. This was in recognition of the fact that discoveries in the Trans Neptunian region were repeatedly raising the question of “what is a planet”. The task of the WG was to investigate the options available and give indications of the level of support and opposition for each if more than one option was emerging.

Background
Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is effective for treating anxiety and depression in primary care, but there is a shortage of therapists. Computer-delivered treatment may be a viable alternative.
AimsTo assess the cost-effectiveness of computer-delivered CBT.
MethodA sample of people with depression or anxiety were randomised to usual care (n = 128) or computer-delivered CBT (n = 146). Costs were available for 123 and 138 participants, respectively. Costs and depression scores were combined using the net benefit approach.
ResultsService costs were £40 (90% CI-£28 to £148) higher over 8 months for computer-delivered CBT. Lost-employment costs were £407 (90% CI £196 to £586) less for this group. Valuing a 1-unit improvement on the Beck Depression Inventory at £40, there is an 81% chance that computer-delivered CBT is cost-effective, and it revealed a highly competitive cost per quality-adjusted life year.
ConclusionsComputer-delivered CBT has a high probability of being cost-effective, even if a modest value is placed on unit improvements in depression.

Background
Preliminary results have demonstrated the clinical efficacy of computerised cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) in the treatment of anxiety and depression in primary care.
AimsTo determine, in an expanded sample, the dependence of the efficacy of this therapy upon clinical and demographic variables.
MethodA sample of 274 patients with anxiety and/or depression were randomly allocated to receive, with or without medication, computerised CBTor treatment as usual, with follow-up assessment at 6 months.
ResultsThe computerised therapy improved depression, negative attributional style, work and social adjustment, without interaction with drug treatment, duration of preexisting illness or severity of existing illness. For anxiety and positive attributional style, treatment interacted with severity such that computerised therapy did better than usual treatment for more disturbed patients. Computerised therapy also led to greater satisfaction with treatment.
ConclusionsComputer-delivered CBT is a widely applicable treatment for anxiety and/or depression in general practice.

Summary
Introduction
The aim of this paper is to rework the material in Chapter III of Gross and Zagier's “Heegner points and derivatives of L-series” —see [GZ] in the list of references—based on more systematic deformation-theoretic methods, so as to treat all imaginary quadratic fields, all residue characteristics, and all j-invariants on an equal footing. This leads to more conceptual arguments in several places and interpretations for some quantities which appear to otherwise arise out of thin air in [GZ, Ch. III]. For example, the sum in [GZ, Ch. III, Lemma 8.2] arises for us in (9−6), where it is given a deformation-theoretic meaning. Provided the analytic results in [GZ] are proven for even discriminants, the main results in [GZ] would be valid without parity restriction on the discriminant of the imaginary quadratic field. Our order of development of the basic results follows [GZ, Ch. III], but the methods of proof are usually quite different, making much less use of the “numerology” of modular curves.
Here is a summary of the contents. In Section 2 we consider some background issues related to maps among elliptic curves over various bases and horizontal divisors on relative curves over a discrete valuation ring. In Section 3 we provide a brief survey of the Serre–Tate theorem and the Grothendieck existence theorem, since these form the backbone of the deformation-theoretic methods which underlie all subsequent arguments.

Nanoindentation has been successfully used as a mechanical properties microprobe to characterise the elastic properties of materials. However, in an isotropic material it is not possible to measure the two independent elastic constants by nanoindentation. Normally, a value of Young's modulus is determined using an assumed value for Poisson's ratio. It is also possible to use the acoustic microscope in its z-contrast mode to measure the elastic constants of a surface. This too produces a composite measurement of the elastic properties, which can be represented in terms of Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio. By using both techniques on the same sample area, it is possible to make two independent measurements of the elastic properties and thus determine both Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio. This method has been used on well-characterised bulk materials, e.g. silica glass, to demonstrate that it produces consistent results. It has also been uused to characterise thin films of TiN/NbN multilayers. These results show that, although for thin films there is a need to improve the analysis of the mechanics, the combination of nanoindentation and acoustic microscopy shows promise.
