Machine learning approaches towards tuning ALICE TRD simulations
In this work an exploration of the discrepancies existing between real and simulated data pertaining to the ALICE Transition Radiation Detector is carried out as a motivation to tune the necessary parameters in the ALICE Online-Offline simulation software (O2 ). After such exploration a single …

Performance of a photon conversion trigger in proton-proton collisions using the ALICE Transition Radiation Detector
… for high transverse momentum photons through the TRD in ALICE (necessary for π 0 and η cross-sections). The calculation of the yield of conversion photons were successful in replicating their yield from minimum bias data set. During this process it was detected that the TRD trigger formed a …

Suicidal Ideation and Treatment-Resistant Depression: Clinical Endophenotype Characterization and Exploration of Novel Brain Stimulation Interventions
… individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) compared to those with depression who respond to treatment. Given treatment limitations of SI in TRD, novel interventions paired with an improved understanding of the neurobiology of SI are needed. In this thesis I explore the clinical …

A visualized framework for representing uncertain and incomplete temporal knowledge
… modelled in terms of Time Relationship Diagrams (TRD). A TRD can be automatically and visually transformed into a corresponding Time Graph, supported by automatic consistency checker that derives a verdict to confirm if a given scenario is temporally consistent or inconsistent. The thesis provides …

Development of the Readout Chamber of the ALICE Transition Radiation Detector and Evaluation of its Physics Performance in the Quarkonium Sector
… like the Transition Radiation Detector (TRD), is of particular importance. This thesis went along with the first real dimension TRD prototype from the first theoretical considerations of its readout chamber over testing it for its mechanical and electrostatical stability up to determining …

Investigating markers of accelerated aging in patients with Treatment Resistant Depression
… most studied and effective approaches to manage TRD patients is the electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), but its use is hampered by its invasive nature and side effects. Moreover, the underlying biology of its mechanism of action has yet to be understood. The general aim of this thesis was to explore …

Análise da eficácia e segurança do uso da cetamina endovenosa na depressão unipolar resistente ao tratamento: revisão sistemática de ensaios clínicos randomizados
… ketamine in the treatment-resistant depression (TRD) Introduction: Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide.TRD is characterized by a lack of response to initial and conventional therapy. The lack of effective drugs with rapid action increases the number of cases of individuals who …

Epigenetic and expression-based modifications of depression-relevant genes as peripheral biomarkers for treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder
… contributing to treatment resistant depression (TRD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) are poorly understood. Identifying peripheral biomarkers in an easily accessible tissue, such as whole blood, will enhance the mechanistic understanding of these disorders and could potentially establish …

Clinical, Metabolic and Inflammatory Indicators of Esketamine Efficacy for Treatment-Resistant Major Depressive Episodes
… Individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) often experience severe symptoms and elevated suicide risk. Metabolic and inflammatory abnormalities may contribute to inadequate response to treatments. Esketamine has demonstrated promise in TRD, but its biological effects and predictors of …

Establishing Neurocognitive Profiles of Major Depressive Disorder Subtypes
… impact of the treatment resistant depression (TRD), defined as MDD that is unresponsive to treatment, and psychotic depression, defined as a depressive episode with hallucinations and/or delusions, is unknown despite the significant illness burden these subtypes represent. The aim of this …

Optimizing Treatment for Depression: Integrating TMS and Ketamine Through Provider and Clinical Staff Education
… for treating treatment-resistant depression (TRD). TRD affects a significant number of individuals who have Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and often do not respond to traditional antidepressant therapies, thus leading to a need for other modalities. Novice treatments for TRD include ketamine, …

Spatiotemporal patterns in the distribution and abundance of the introduced Redbreast Sunfish (Lepomis auritus) and native Longear Sunfish (L. megalotis; Centrarchidae) in reservoirs of the Tennessee River drainage
… was introduced in the Tennessee River drainage (TRD) in the 1940s, and contemporary anecdotal evidence suggests that L. auritus is possibly displacing the native Longear Sunfish (Lepomis megalotis). This study aimed to characterize temporal patterns in regional abundances of L. auritus and L. …

Identification Of A Treatment-Resistant, Ketamine-Sensitive Genetic Line In The Chick Anxiety-Depression Model
… that accurately model the clinical features of TRD. The purpose of this research was to screen representatives of different classes FDA-approved antidepressants and one novel antidepressant in two genetic lines of domestic fowl chicks that have previously been identified as stress-vulnerable and …
