ВЗАИМОДЕЙСТВИЕ СЕРОТОНИНА И ЦИТОКИНОВ В ПАТОГЕНЕЗЕ УШИБА ГОЛОВНОГО МОЗГА

С целью исследования количественного содержания серотонина и цитокинов сыворотки крови и ликво-ра предпринято комплексное обследование 60 пациентов (40 мужчин и 20 женщин) в остром периоде ушиба головного мозга (УГМ) средней степени тяжести в возрасте от 25 до 62 лет (средний возраст составил 36,2 (27,5; 54 лет). Всем пациентам проведено изучение неврологического, психовегетативного статусов, выпол-нена компьютерная томография головного мозга. Исследование гуморального серотонина и цитокинов (фак-тора некроза опухоли (ФНО), интерлейкина-10) в сыворотке периферической крови и ликворе проводилось методом иммуноферментного твердофазного анализа. Выявлено повышение серотонина в зависимости от степени тяжести черепно-мозговой травмы, коррелирующее с цитокиновыми маркерами. Установлено, что количественное содержание серотонина сыворотки крови может служить дифференциальным методом диа-гностики сотрясения и ушиба головного мозга. Количественное содержание серотонина сыворотки крови прямолинейно зависит от уровня противовоспалительного интерлейкина ликвора, а серотонин ликвора на-ходится в отрицательной корреляционной зависимости с уровнем ФНО. Показано, что изменение уровня серотонина сопряжено с противовоспалительными механизмами защиты нервной ткани в остром периоде черепно-мозговой травмы. Ключевые слова
Perverse Sheaves on Grassmannians

Abstract We compute the category of perverse sheaves on Hermitian symmetric spaces in types $\text{A}$ and $\text{D}$ , constructible with respect to the Schubert stratification. The calculation is microlocal, and uses the action of the Borel group to study the geometry of the conormal variety $\Lambda$ .
AIRBUS FLY-BY-WIRE: A PROCESS TOWARD TOTAL DEPENDABILITY

This paper deals with the digital electrical flight control system of the Airbus airplanes. This system is built to very stringent dependability requirements both in terms of safety (the systems must not output erroneous signals) and availability. System safety and availability principles are presented with an emphasis on their evolution, on future challenges and on pilot aids.
MICRO ROTOR ENHANCED BLOCK CIPHER DESIGNED FOR EIGHT BITS MICRO -CONTROLLERS (MREBC)

The sensor network is a wireless network environment that consists of the many sensors of lightweight and low-power. Authentication between nodes is very vital for network reliability and the integrity of information collected by these nodes. Therefore, encryption algorithm for the implementation of reliable sensor network environments is required to the applicable sensor network. This paper gives a new proposed cryptosystem (MREBC) that is designed for 8 bits microcontroller systems. MREBC uses the concept of rotor enhanced block cipher which was initially proposed by the author in [NRSC 2002] on the first version of REBC. MREBC uses rotors to achieve two basic cryptographic operations; permutation, and substitution. Round key is generated using rotor too, which is used to achieve ciphertext key dependency. Rotors implemented using 8 bits successive affine transformation, which achieves memoryless, normalized ciphertext statistics, and small processing speed trend. The strength of this system is compared with the RIJNDAEL (AES) cipher. MREBC cipher gives excellent results from security characteristics and statistical point of view of. communication efficiency of MREBC is compared with AES through measuring performance by plaintext size, and cost of operation per hop according to the network scale. Arduino microcontroller board is used to implement both MREBC, and AES in order to compare the performance of algorithms. Authors suggests to use MREBC to implement a reliable sensor network environments.

Sounding-Based Thermodynamic Budgets for DYNAMO

The Dynamics of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign, conducted over the Indian Ocean from October 2011 to March 2012, was designed to study the initiation of the Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO). Two prominent MJOs occurred in the experimental domain during the special observing period in October and November. Data from a northern and a southern sounding array (NSA and SSA, respectively) have been used to investigate the apparent heat sources and sinks (Q1 and Q2) and radiative heating rates QR throughout the life cycles of the two MJO events. The MJO signal was far stronger in the NSA than the SSA. Time series of Q1, Q2, and the vertical eddy flux of moist static energy reveal an evolution of cloud systems for both MJOs consistent with prior studies: shallow, nonprecipitating cumulus during the suppressed phase, followed by cumulus congestus, then deep convection during the active phase, and finally stratiform precipitation. However, the duration of these phases was shorter for the November MJO than for the October event. The profiles of Q1 and Q2 for the two arrays indicate a greater stratiform rain fraction for the NSA than the SSA—a finding supported by TRMM measurements. Surface rainfall rates and net tropospheric QR determined as residuals from the budgets show good agreement with satellite-based estimates. The cloud radiative forcing was approximately 20% of the column-integrated convective heating and of the same amplitude as the normalized gross moist stability, leaving open the possibility of radiative‐ convective instability for the two MJOs.
Pólya's conjecture fails for the fractional Laplacian

The analogue of P\'olya's conjecture is shown to fail for the fractional Laplacian (-Delta)^{alpha/2} on an interval in 1-dimension, whenever 0 < alpha < 2. The failure is total: every eigenvalue lies below the corresponding term of the Weyl asymptotic. In 2-dimensions, the fractional P\'olya conjecture fails already for the first eigenvalue, when 0 < alpha < 0.984.
THE ANALYSIS OF ADAPTATION IN A PLANT-BREEDING PROGRAMME

The adaptation of barley varieties was studied by the use of grain yields of a randomly chosen group of 277 varieties from a world collection, grown in replicated trials for several seasons at three sites in South Australia. For each variety a linear regression of yield on the mean yield of all varieties for each site and season was computed to measure variety adaptation. In these calculations the basic yields were measured on a logarithmic scale, as it was found that a high degree of linearity was thereby induced. The mean yield of all varieties for each site and season provided a quantitative grading of the environments; and from the analysis described, varieties specifically adapted to good or poor seasons and those showing general adaptability may be identified. The study of the adaptation of the whole population of varieties was facilitated by the use of a two-dimensional plot (scatter diagram), with mean yield and regression coefficient as coordinates for each variety. Though wide variation was evident in both mean yield and sensitivity to environment as characterized by the regression coefficient, the variation in sensitivity was proportionately less among varieties with higher mean yield, and the varieties with highest mean yield exhibited, within very narrow limits (regression cocfficientts close to 0.8), asimilar degree of adaptation to all environments over the wide range, especially of seasonal conditions, typical of the South Australian cereal belt. Varieties from particular geographic regions of the world showed a similarity in type of adaptation, which provides a useful basis for plant introduction. Phenotypic stabilityand physiological and morphological characteristics of groups of varieties with specific or general adaptability are discussed in relation to plant introduction and breeding.
Scaling differences between large interplate and intraplate earthquakes

A study of large intraplate earthquakes with well-determined source parameters shows that these earthquakes obey a scaling law similar to large interplate earthquakes, in which M_0 ∝ L^2 or u = αL, where L is rupture length and u is slip. In contrast to interplate earthquakes, for which α ≈ 1 × 10^(−5), for for the intraplate events α ≈ 6 × 10^(−5), which implies that these earthquakes have stress drops about 6 times higher than interplate events. This result is independent of focal mechanism type. This implies that intraplate faults have a higher frictional strength than do plate boundaries, and hence that faults are velocity or slip weakening in their behavior. This factor may be important in producing the concentrated deformation that creates and maintains plate boundaries.

Lecture 7-8: Martingales and Azuma's Inequality

We have seen that if X X1 + · · · + Xn is a sum of independent {0, 1} random variables, then X is tightly concentrated around its expected value [X]. The fact that the random variables were {0, 1}-valued was not essential; similar concentration results hold if we simply assume that they are in some bounded range [−L, L]. One can also relax the independence assumption, as we will see next. Consider a sequence of random variables X0 ,X1 ,X2 , . The sequence {Xi} is called a discretetime martingale if it holds that [Xi+1 | X0 ,X1 , . ,Xi] Xi

Di erences in features supported by the various contemporary commercial work ow management systems point to di erent insights of suitability and di erent levels of expressive power. The challenge, which we undertake in this paper, is to systematically address work ow requirements, from basic to complex. Many of the more complex requirements identi ed, recur quite frequently in the analysis phases of work ow projects, however their implementation is uncertain in current products. Requirements for work ow languages are indicated through work ow patterns. In this context, patterns address business requirements in an imperative work ow style expression, but are removed from speci c work ow languages. The paper describes a number of work ow patterns addressing what we believe identify comprehensive work ow functionality. These patterns provide the basis for an indepth comparison of a number of commercially available work owmanagement systems. As such, this paper can be seen as the academic response to evaluations made by prestigious consulting companies. Typically, these evaluations hardly consider the work ow modeling language and routing capabilities, and focus more on the purely technical and commercial aspects. ∗Part of this work was done at CTRG (University of Colorado, USA) during a sabbatical leave. †This research was partially supported by an ARC SPIRT grant \Component System Architecture for an Open Distributed Enterprise Management System with Con gurable Work ow Support" between QUT and Mincom. ‡Part of this work was supported by CITEC, an agency within the Queensland State Government.
Creating and consolidating eco-economics through financial and fiscal instruments. contribution of green taxes

Ecologic Economics or Eco-economics is a new research field that combines economic issues with issues related to environmental sciences, with the purpose of developing a new type of environment-friendly economy. The development of Eco-economics implies the development of Eco-culture, i.e. changing man, the values which it observes, the mentality regarding his relationship with the environment. The state is the key element in promoting Eco-culture and Eco-economics, the financial and fiscal instruments, especially green taxes and it has a mobilizing and stimulating effect.
The variability in gel-Producting properties of commercial agar and its influence on bacterial growth

1. The rigidity of agar gel in poured agar plates can be tested by a comparatively simple and easily repeatable method. 2. Commercial agar from different sources varies in the rigidity of gel it produces at a given concentration. 3. The rigidity of gel produced by any agar at a given concentration is affected by processing and by the mode of production of poured plates and to some extent by the diluent used. 4. The appearance of a spurious S-R change in colonies of Salmonella and Shigella on media with an increasing agar content is a measure of the rigidity of the agar gel used and not directly of the agar concentration of the medium. 5. The appearance of this spurious S-R change induced by rigid agar bears no relation to the agglutinability of the organism. 6. Both increased or decreased agglutinability of cultures of Salmonella and Shigella is associated with the appearance of colonies of an apparently rough morphology at a lower level of agar rigidity than that at which spurious S-R change develops in a normally agglutinable culture. 7. Without some standardization of the rigidity of the gel used in agar plates, erroneous conclusions may be drawn regarding the antigenic state of the organisms under test. 8. Samples of agar of differing gel rigidity can be blended to form a product producing a gel of a calculated 12 sec. value. I am indebted to the Director-General, Army Medical Services, for permission to publish this article.
Cs 6604: Data Mining 1 Searching for Sets 2 Algorithms for Searching Set Spaces

Databases are typically stored in one of two formats. A horizontal representation, as shown above, is indexed by transaction ID and stores items in each transaction. A vertical representation, on the other hand, is indexed by item and stores transactions that each item occurs in. Different algorithms are tuned to work with different representations. In this lecture, we will focus on horizontal representations.
UČINCI STATINA U SEPSI I AKUTNOM UPALNOM ODGOVORU

Sepsa, sindrom sistemskog upalnog odgovora na infekciju je među vodećim uzrocima smrti u zapadnom svijetu (1, 2). Više od 500 000 bolesnika razvije sepsu svake godine u Europi, a smrtnost sepse je vrlo visoka: 30-50 %, viša u starijim dobnim skupinama. Dva su čimbenika presudna za pozitivan ishod sepse: rana dijagnoza i identii kacija uzročnika; osim antimikrobnog liječenja, bitne su sastavnice liječenja sepse hemodinamsko praćenje radi adekvatne nadoknade tekućine, inotropne terapije i terapije vazopresorima. Usprkos, ponajviše tehnološkom napretku (razvoj dijagnostičkih metoda, hemodinamskog monitoringa, mehaničke ventilacije i dr.) i velikom broju znanstvenih i stručnih radova, smrtnost sepse ostajala je godinama visoka što je potaknulo osnivanje Surviving Sepsis Campaign, kampanje za smanjenje smrtnosti teške sepse i septičkog šoka čija su osnova bile Smjernice za liječenje (3). Ambiciozni plan smanjenja smrtnosti za četvrtinu u pet godina nije ostvaren, neke od preporučivanih metoda postale su upitne ili su napuštene, ali postignuti su pozitivni rezultati u poboljšanju razumijevanja i zbrinjavanja sepse (4).
Final fantasy XV: pulse and traction of characters

The mixture of reality and fantasy is the main expression of Final Fantasy XV, which is a title from the classical long-lasting roleplaying game series. We embrace the words, pulse and traction, as one of the key concepts of the development. How we control motions of characters to make them plausible and fascinating is a challenging work in the area of AI and animation to achieve the goal.
SURVEY ON POLYGONAL APPROXIMATION TECHNIQUES FOR DIGITAL PLANAR CURVES

Polygon approximation plays a vital role in abquitious applications like multimedia, geographic and object recognition. An extensive number of polygonal approximation techniques for digital planar curves have been proposed over the last decade, but there are no survey papers on recently proposed techniques. Polygon is a collection of edges and vertices.Objects are represented usingedges and vertices or contour points (ie. polygon). Polygonal approximation is representing the object with less number of dominant points (less number of edges and vertices) . Polygon approximationresults in less computational speed and memory usage. This paper deals with comparative study on polygonal approximation techniquesfor digital planar curves with respect to their computation and efficiency.

With Our Present State of Knowledge, We Cannot Distinguish Con- Contrail Microphysics

C ontrails, which are products of aircraft emissions in the upper troposphere at temperatures of about −40°C and below, are among the most visible human inf luences on the Earth’s climate. Initially, the microphysical properties of contrails differ from those of natural cirrus, but with age contrails may lose their shape and spread, becoming virtually indistinguishable from natural cirrus, both visually and perhaps also in their microphysical properties. Whether contrails disappear or develop into contrail cirrus clouds depends upon the environmental relative humidity with respect to ice. Contrails will persist in an ice-saturated atmosphere. With supersaturation, ice crystals develop and extract excess environmental water vapor. The transition of line-shaped contrails into cirrus-like clouds, however, is neither well understood nor well represented in climate models. Contrail formation is described by the Schmidt– Appleman Criterion (SAC)1, a simple equation that is a function of atmospheric temperature and pressure, the fuel energy content, the amount of water vapor exhausted, and the aircraft’s overall propulsion efficiency. The reliability of the SAC to predict visible contrail-forming conditions has been confirmed by observations from various research f lights, summarized in IPCC (1999). The same observations indicate that thermodynamics, not the physicochemistry of the exhaust soot from the aircraft, is the primary controlling factor for contrail formation. The SAC states that a contrail forms during the plume expansion process if the mixture of exhaust gases and ambient air briefly reaches or surpasses saturation with respect to liquid water. The fact that the mixture must reach water saturation to form a visible contrail is the only empirical component of the thermodynamic approach, and it is the only component that is related to the ice-forming properties of emitted Aitken-mode soot particles and the ultrafine liquid particles that form prior to the formation of contrails. That is, these plume particles act primarily as cloud condensation nuclei and are poor ice-forming nuclei, at least prior to water activation. Small differences in the assumed ice nucleation behavior of the soot do not significantly affect the SAC for visible contrail formation (Kärcher et al. 1996). An aircraft’s contribution of water vapor to the total vapor content of the jet plume is appreciable. Initially, the microphysics is determined by processes
Generic stability, forking, and þ-forking

notions of " smallness " are among the most important tools that model theory offers for the analysis of arbitrary structures. The two most useful notions of this kind are forking (which is closely related to certain measure zero ideals) and thorn-forking (which generalizes the usual topological dimension). Under certain mild assumptions, forking is the finest notion of smallness, whereas thorn-forking is the coarsest. In this paper we study forking and thorn forking, restricting ourselves to the class of generically stable types. Our main conclusion is that in this context these two notions coincide. We explore some applications of this equivalence.
