PHARMACEUTICAL DOSAGE FORM COMPRISING POLYMERIC CARRIER COMPOSITION

A pharmaceutical dosage form comprises a solid dispersion product of at least one active ingredient dispersed in a polymeric binder composition, the polymeric carrier composition comprising a) a vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer, wherein at least 95 % by weight of the vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer has a molecular weight distribution within the range of from 1000 to 13 000; and b) a vinylpyrrolidone copolymer having a weight- average molecular weight of from 5000 to 1 500 000. The dosage form is preferably prepared by a melt extrusion process. The polymeric carrier composition exhibits a high drug dissolution power and allows a reduction of the viscosity of the melt without deteriorating the mechanical properties and storage stability of the dosage form.
Assessment of the Extent of Surgical Resection as a Predictor of Survival in Patients With Primary Osseous Spinal Neoplasms

Studies using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry, however, may provide a better source of understanding for rare pathologies. This registry is the most comprehensive source of cancer information because it collects incidence and survival data for patients with cancer from 26% of the population in the United States. The goal of the present study was to conduct a large population-based study using the SEER registry to understand whether surgical resection compared with biopsy was associated with improved survival for patients with primary nonmetastatic chordomas, chondrosarcoma, osteosarcomas, and Ewing sarcoma. This understanding may help clarify the role of surgery in maximizing survival for patients with malignant primary bone tumors.
Leakage detection and localization method for pipelines in complicated conditions

It is difficult to detect leakage for oil pipelines in complicated conditions. For solving the difficulty a method based on SVM (Support Vector Machine) is proposed and the diagnosis model was established. Model train can be completed in few samples to distinguish different conditions of pipelines. The experimental result demonstrates it was effective in the classification with a few samples and the correct rate increased more greatly compared with traditional BP method. Moreover, in hot pipelines pressure velocity is affected by oil and pipeline axial temperature drop. Location usually has obvious error. For solving this problem axial temperature drop was analyzed and pressure velocity was revised. By means of Newton-Cotes integration method location formula was improved. The field experiments show that the improved located formula made location accuracy increased from 2.5% to 1.0%.

The research infrastructures consortium of ncps for h2020

The overall objective of RICH-2 is to strengthen the capacities of and cooperation among NCPs in the area of Research Infrastructures (including e-infrastructures) and to provide high quality support and services to programme applicants and the Research Infrastructure (RI) community at large with the view to increase the quality of RI proposals in the area. 

The RICH-2 overall approach starts from the main idea that the NCP role requires both good knowledge about Horizon 2020 and scientific priorities as well as skills and competences to convey a message in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary environment. RICH-2 is in continuity with the RICH project, building on its experience and achievements.

RICH-2 continues giving full and sound support to help RIs NCPs being reliable and concrete sources of knowledge. All activities are tailored according to the nature of the area, and the priorities of the RI NCPs through various mechanisms (seminars and conferences, specific and horizontal trainings, exchange scheme). Special attention is given to further enhance the competence of NCPs, including helping new/less experienced NCPs and NCPs in those countries with low levels participation in the RI programme to rapidly acquire the know-how accumulated already in other countries. 

The promotion of trans-national and virtual access (TA/VA), the synergies within the RIs network and with other NCPs networks, and understanding RIs relevant policies and international cooperation oriented measures for research infrastructures remain the core activities, as well as to spread awareness on the importance of the RI opportunities in the RI Programme and beyond. 
Specific services (Joint Proposal Check Service, Webinars on TA/VA open calls, evetns) for RI applicants are scheduled in order to contribute improving the quality of RI proposals.

Italien

Die entscheidende Rolle für die Anfänge der Schnitzler-Rezeption in Italien kommt nicht so sehr dem Buchmarkt als vielmehr der Theaterbühne zu. Die parallelen Aufführungen von Liebelei und Giuseppe Giacosas Diritti dell’anima am Burgtheater von 1895 verstärkten beim italienischen Publikum die Idee der Affinität zwischen dem bereits erfolgreichen Stück Schnitzlers und dem damals in Italien beliebten psychologischen Drama. Entsprechend brachte bereits ein Jahr später das Paladini-Zampieri-Ensemble des Mailänder Teatro Manzoni die italienische Version von Liebelei auf die Bühne, auf die nur wenige Monate später eine zweite Inszenierung durch das Mariani-Calabresi-Ensemble am Teatro dei Filodrammatici ebenfalls in Mailand folgte.

Loggerhead turtle eggshells as a source of maternal nuclear genomic DNA for population genetic studies

Tagging studies on nesting beaches are commonly used to estimate nesting frequency, remigration interval and nesting population size for marine turtle rookeries. Estimates of these demographic parameters from tagging projects may be biased because of the small scale of tagging efforts relative to female nest site fidelity and the logistical difficulty of intercepting all nesting females. Therefore, alternative and supplemental means of individual identification of nesting females are required. We demonstrate that maternal nuclear microsatellite DNA can be isolated from unincubated eggshells of the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) through comparison of DNA extracted from 59 eggs collected within 15 h of oviposition and DNA derived from skin samples from respective nesting females. Scorable microsatellite genotypes were produced in 897 of 994 (90.2%) single-locus egg amplifications attempted. Among eggs from known females, 730 of 748 (97.6%) single-locus, egg-derived genotypes matched the respective skin-derived genotypes. Allelic dropout was the most common type of error, followed by the presence of nonmaternal, presumably paternal, alleles. Genotypes derived from unincubated eggshells permit individual assignment of nests and therefore demographic parameter estimates for loggerhead turtle nesting populations, despite genotyping errors that require further optimization. Although sampling unincubated eggs is destructive, this technique is noninvasive to nesting females and is applicable in marine turtle population genetics studies when individual resolution is required but direct interception of nesting females is undesirable or logistically infeasible.
Independent prognostic value of left atrial function by two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging in patients with non -ST-segment-elevation acute myocardial infarction

The objective of this study is to evaluate left atrial(LA) function and its prognostic value by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) in patients with non-ST-segment-elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEAMI).Global longitudinal LA S/SR data obtained by 2D speckle imaging with automated software (Echo PAC, GE Medical).Clinical variables and angiographic, echocardiographic, and STE parameters were studied in 65 patients with NSTEAMI (51 males and 14 females; mean age of 60.7 ± 9.8 years) who underwent elective PCI. The final study population consisted of 51 individuals (43 males and 8 females; mean age of 62.9 ± 11.1 years) and a 12 ± 3 months follow-up was performed. A total of 22 combined cardiovascular events(20 patients) occurred. With the use of Univariable Cox regression, all parameters were evaluated in the prediction of cardiac events, ischemic events, and/or cardiac death. According to ROC analysis, baseline mean global left atrial SRs (ROC area 0.82, p = 0.001) and baseline mean global left atrial SRe (ROC area 0.68, p = 0.036) were the only predictive variables.In patients with NSTEAMI, we found that the novel global strain parameter of left atrial function is a valuable predictor of combined cardiovascular events over conventional echocardiography and may therefore be an important clinical tool for risk stratification in the acute phase of NSTEAMI.

Data visualization on web-based OLAP

A web-based OLAP client typically runs inside a generic browser on a web-based, resource-constrained device. Currently, this client is responsible for only delivery of what is rendered by the OLAP server. A functional prototype of a client-centric OLAP system is built, which features a customized middleware on the server side and a web client incorporating a lightweight, in-memory OLAP data/query engine. We develop three interactive data visualization tools that run against the data engine on the client side. Our experimental results show that in comparison to the traditional server-centric model, our client-centric OLAP model is clearly superior and capable of delivering a higher level of user satisfaction. A novel technique is presented for in-client aggregation over a large set of data items represented in a scatter plot.
Pressurization method for controllable impulsion of liquids in microfluidic platforms

In this paper, a pressurization method for manufacturing an independent impulsion system is proposed. The method consists in inserting a deformable material filling a microchamber, leading to its pressurization, which will be on charge of the movement of fluid. The reached pressure involves a wide range of positive values which match well for its application in microfluidic systems, such as Lab on a Chip. It has to be highlighted that the portability of microfluidic platforms is improved due to the fact that the use of external pumps to impulse the fluids can be avoided. So, the paper is focused on the displacement of fluid from one part of the microfluidic circuit to another, with the minimum error, in steady state. The control on the impulsion of liquids only depends on the volume of material which has been inserted. This method is intended to be used with an actuation system, in order to perform the impulsion of fluids in a controllable manner. The permeability of the system has been also studied. The experiments have shown good impermeability during 1h, time enough to perform the subsequent activation after pressurization. A microfluidic circuit, including the pressurized system, has been implemented for testing and as an example of a certain application. Display Omitted We propose a novel impulsion system based on PCB and SU-8.The system is intended to be integrated on microfluidic platforms.We design, fabricate and integrate the impulsion system in the circuit.The experimental results show good agreement with the theory.

Disabling constitutionalism. Can the politics of the Belgian Constitution be explained?

For the second time in just a few years, Belgium recently faced a profound political and institutional crisis. Since constitutions are the ultimate means of building and sustaining a just and stable politico-institutional order, these crises raise the question of what role the constitution plays in channeling and/or constraining the political state of affairs. This is a most pressing topic, especially since the dominant theory about why and how countries such as Belgium are able to function as stable polities also claims to be indicative of the democratic quality of these countries. In this article, it is submitted that the Belgian case can indeed be instructive in telling us a bit more about the constitutional conditions that are, if nothing else, at least not antagonistic to societal stability. The thesis proposed in this article is that for creating a stable society, there should be a connection between what is called negative and positive constitutionalism (S. Holmes): not only should a constitution disable political decision-making by building procedural roadblocks or by enacting bills of rights (negative constitutionalism); it can also help create the very demos which governs itself through the constitutional regime by including incentives for politicians to cooperate (positive constitutionalism). The Belgian Constitution has failed in connecting these types of constitutionalism. And since partition and secession, which might be the result of all this, usually come with an array of negative consequences (the possibility of violence being one of them), this is a problematic state of affairs.
Behavior and molecular signature of neural stem cells, and changes occurring during aging

In the adult neurogenic niches, neural stem cells (NSCs) generate neurons throughout life. During aging, the number of newborn neurons is clearly reduced, although it is still very debated what specifically happens to the NSCs: do they die, increase their quiescence or change their fate? It is emerging that NSCs are heterogeneous, with different subtypes, in particular quiescent and active NSCs, responding differently to neurogenic stimuli, including aging. However, due to difficulties in distinguishing NSCs subtypes in vivo, their behavior in the physiological environment, their molecular hallmarks, and especially how those are changed during aging are still elusive. These are key questions in neuroscience and stem cell biology. Thanks to the combination of the host laboratory expertise with mine, the current action proposes to develop a strategy to discriminate different NSCs in vivo and shed new light on their behavior, molecular properties and the changes occurring during life. The expected results are going to provide critical information on the regenerative potential of NSCs subtypes and on whether and how the aging phenotype can be reverted, with a consequent strong scientific and social impact.
European Network of Lindane waste affected regions working together towards a greener environment

LINDANET is an ambitious project that aims to join efforts among European regions to work together towards the improvement of the HCH (Lindane) contaminated sites.

Lindane was a pesticide widely produced during second half of the 20th century around Europe and the world. Lindane production generated huge amounts of high pollutant organochlorinated compounds (HCH isomers and others) which present high persistence, high toxicity, and carcinogenic, bioaccumulative and endocrine disrupting properties. For example, several isomers of HCH are included in the list of the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) of the Stockholm Convention.

Lindane production and use has been prohibited in EU regulation from 2007, but the Lindane related pollution still represents a very important risk for the human health and european environment and is still a quite unknown problem by the population and the political representatives.
So, the intention of the LINDANET project is to advance in the direction of improve the knowledge and solution of this problem, starting from a regional point of view and reaching a European level. 
For this, the project has set the following general objectives:
• To create a network of European regions affected by the contamination derived from the lindane production wastes (HCH and others), 
• To establish an Action Plan focused to the problem solution in each region,
• To interchange experiences and knowledge that contribute to the solution of the contamination derived from the lindane and lindane production wastes,
• To involve the stakeholder groups in the knowledge and the solution to the problem,
• To contribute to the Policy Learning Platform of the Interreg Europe programme,
• To raise public awareness about the HCH pollution and other related contamination problems derived from POPs and Obsolete Pesticides.
Creating a Good Local Economy through Procurement

Local economies are key to local economic prosperity. Although local economies are recovering, they still face unprecedented challenges. Public / anchor institutions are responsible for significant amounts of spend on goods and services in their locality. Creating a Good Local Economy through Procurement (Procure) will explore how to harness the spending power of these institutions using procurement to bring about economic, social and environmental benefits for businesses and people which in turn will have a positive impact on the city and its local economy.
Oiling fibre tow during condensing

A fleece is fed into a first condenser which wraps it around a nozzle supplied through a fine orthogonal tube pref. with elliptical sectin or pref. an inclined tube, so that the nozzle sprays the inside of the wrapped tow, which is then further condensed before high drafting. Finishing fluid, rather than oil, can be applied.
DOUBLE DATA RATE COMMAND BUS

A memory subsystem includes a command address bus capable to be operated at double data rate. A memory circuit includes N command signal lines that operate at a data rate of 2R to receive command information from a memory controller. The memory circuit includes 2N command signal lines that operate at a data rate of R to transfer the commands to one or more memory devices. While ratios of 1:2 are specified, similar techniques can be used to send command signals at higher data rates over fewer signal lines from a host to a logic circuit, which then transfers the command signals at lower data rates over more signal lines.
Three-vortex quasi-geostrophic dynamics in a two-layer fluid. Part 1. Analysis of relative and absolute motions

Abstract The results presented here examine the quasi-geostrophic dynamics of a point vortex structure with one upper-layer vortex and two identical bottom-layer vortices in a two-layer fluid. The problem of three vortices in a barotropic fluid is known to be integrable. This fundamental result is also valid in a stratified fluid, in particular a two-layer one. In this case, unlike the barotropic situation, vortices belonging to the same layer or to different layers interact according to different formulae. Previously, this occurrence has been poorly investigated. In the present work, the existence conditions for stable stationary (translational and rotational) collinear two-layer configurations of three vortices are obtained. Small disturbances of stationary configurations lead to periodic oscillations of the vortices about their undisturbed shapes. These oscillations occur along elliptical orbits up to the second order of the Hamiltonian expansion. Analytical expressions for the parameters of the corresponding ellipses and for oscillation frequencies are obtained. In the case of finite disturbances, vortex motion becomes more complicated. In this case we have made a classification of all possible movements, by analysing phase portraits in trilinear coordinates and by computing numerically the characteristic trajectories of the absolute and relative vortex motions.
