The ripple effect of women's name changes in indexing, citation, and authority control
Authors: Pellack Lorraine J. , Kappmeyer Lori Osmus 
Published: January 2011

AbstractThis study investigated name changes of women authors to determine how they were represented in indexes and cited references and identify problem areas. A secondary purpose of the study was to investigate whether or not indexing services were using authority control and how this influenced the search results. The works of eight library science authors who had published under multiple names were examined. The researchers compared author names as they appeared on title pages of publications versus in four online databases and in bibliographies by checking 380 publications and 1,159 citations. Author names were correctly provided 81.22% of the time in indexing services and 90.94% in citation lists. The lowest accuracy (54.55%) occurred when limiting to publications found in Library Literature. The highest accuracy (94.18%) occurred with works published before a surname changed. Author names in indexes and citations correctly matched names on journal articles more often than for any other type of publication. Indexes and citation style manuals treated author names in multiple ways, often altering names substantially from how they appear on the title page. Recommendations are made for changes in editorial styles by indexing services and by the authors themselves to help alleviate future confusion in author name searching.

Published: January 2011

AbstractBACKGROUND:Contemporary therapy for medulloblastoma results in adverse neurocognitive effects on young children, particularly those under the age of 3. Stratification of patients by risk group may allow toxic treatment to be avoided.METHODS:Seventy‐six patients diagnosed with medulloblastoma and enrolled on CCG‐9921 underwent central review of pathology, and histologic subtype was designated as desmoplastic or nondesmoplastic. Nonparametric event‐free survival (EFS) and survival (OS) curves were computed using the product limit (Kaplan‐Meier) estimates, and the log‐rank test was used to compare survival according to histologic subtype.RESULTS:Patients with desmoplastic medulloblastoma experienced a favorable EFS of 77% ± 9% and OS of 85% ± 8% compared with EFS of 17% ± 5% and OS of 29% ± 6% for patients with tumors in the nondesmoplastic group (P < .0001 for both EFS and OS comparisons). Patients without disease progression did not receive radiation therapy.CONCLUSIONS:Children less than 3 with desmoplastic histology of medulloblastoma represent a lower‐risk group for whom reduction of therapy, including elimination of radiation therapy, is an appropriate strategy.

Evx1 is required for joint formation in zebrafish fin dermoskeleton
Authors: Schulte Claus J. , Allen Claire , England Samantha J. , Juárez‐Morales José L. , Lewis Katharine E. 
Published: January 2011

AbstractThe transcription factor Evx1 is expressed in the joints between individual lepidotrichia (bony ray) segments and at the distal tips of the lepidotrichia in developing zebrafish fins. It is also expressed in the apical growth zone in regenerating fins. However, so far there is no functional evidence that addresses whether Evx1 is required for any aspect of fin development or regeneration. In this study, we use a novel mutation in evx1 to address this. We find that Evx1 is not required for either fin outgrowth or regeneration. All of the fins form normally in evx1 mutants, and there are no significant changes in fin length. In contrast, Evx1 is required for lepidotrichia joint formation during both fin development and regeneration. This is a very specific phenotype as both lepidotrichia hemisegment separations and lepidotrichia bifurcations still form normally in evx1 mutant fins, as do joints in the more proximal endoskeletal radials.

Optimal operation of residential fuel cell system with rapidly fluctuating energy demand
Authors: Tanaka Yoichi , Fukushima Masao 
Published: January 2011

AbstractHousehold cogeneration systems using proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC systems) have attracted attention due to their high energy efficiency. To bring out a PEMFC system's performance, it is crucial to use effectively both the electric power and hot water produced from a PEMFC system. Therefore, the optimal scheduling problem of a PEMFC system is very important. However, there are difficulties due to uncertainty of household energy demand. A difficulty to which little attention has been paid so far lies in the difference between the scheduled electric power output and the actual electric power output of a PEMFC system caused by rapid fluctuations in electric power demand. In this paper, we propose a new method of dealing with this problem. In our method, we treat the energy demand as a random variable and calculate its probability density at each time step. Then a constraint that takes account of the energy demand fluctuations is defined through the probability density and is incorporated into the original optimal scheduling problem of the PEMFC system. Using our method, we can deal with rapid energy demand fluctuations in settings of the scheduling problem with long time intervals. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A geometry‐based level set method for curvilinear overset grids with application to ship hydrodynamics
Authors: Huang Juntao , Carrica Pablo M. , Stern Frederick 
Published: January 2011

AbstractIn a previous work (Int. J. Numer. Meth. Fluids 2007; 55:867–897), we presented a two‐phase level set method to simulate air/water turbulent flows using curvilinear body‐fitted grids for ship hydrodynamics problems. This two‐phase level set method explicitly enforces jump conditions across the interface, thus resulting in a fully coupled representation of the air/water flow. Though the method works well with multiblock curvilinear grids, severe robustness problems were found when attempting to use it with overset grids. The problem was tracked to small unphysical level set discontinuities across the overset grids with large differences in curvature. Though negligible for single‐phase approaches, the problem magnifies with large density differences between the phases, causing computation failures. In this paper, we present a geometry‐based level set method for curvilinear overset grids that overcomes these difficulties. The level set transport and reinitialization equations are not discretized along grid coordinates, but along the upwind streamline and level set gradient directions, respectively. The method is essentially an unstructured approach that is transparent to the differences between overset grids, but still the discretization is under the framework of a finite differences approach. As a result, significant improvements in robustness and to a less extent in accuracy are achieved for the level set function interpolation between overset grids, especially with big differences in grid curvature. Example tests are shown for the case of bow breaking waves around the surface combatant model David Taylor Model Basin (DTMB) 5415 and for the steady‐state ONR Tumblehome DTMB 5613 with superstructure. In the first case, the results are compared against experimental data available and in the second against results of a semi‐coupled method. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Y‐box protein‐1 is a transcriptional regulator of BMP7
Authors: Wang Shinong , Hirschberg Raimund 
Published: January 2011

AbstractBone morphogenetic protein‐7 (BMP7) is an endogenous antifibrogenic protein in the kidney which is down regulated in experimental chronic kidney diseases such as obstructive and diabetic nephropathy in parallel with progressively increasing TGFβ. In vitro studies were performed in Madin‐Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK)‐cells to identify transcriptional regulators of BMP7. Experiments with various BMP7 promoter fragments (465–4,267 bp) identify small proximal promoter segments that are transcriptionally activated by high glucose (3.2‐fold) but down regulated by TGFβ (0.2‐fold) compared to normal glucose. Protein binding to these DNA segments is increased by high glucose and decreased by TGFβ in a time‐dependent, progressive manner. Analysis of BMP7 promoter‐binding proteins with liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) identifies seven unique, partially overlapping peptides, spanning 25% of the amino acid sequence of Y‐box protein‐1 (YB1). EMSA–Western blot combination experiments confirm that YB1 is a BMP7 promoter‐binding protein. YB1 knock‐down reduces transcriptional responses to high glucose and TGFβ by about one‐half, respectively. In addition, high glucose induces but TGFβ reduces nuclear translocation of YB1 from the cytoplasm. These studies identify YB1 as a transcriptional activator of BMP7 and helps to explain the progressive decline in renal BMP7 in diabetic nephropathy and other kidney diseases. J. Cell.

New saturable‐core fault current limiter topology with reduced core size
Authors: Cvoric Dalibor , de Haan Sjoerd Walter Hero , Ferreira Jan Abraham 
Published: January 2011

AbstractFault current limiters (FCLs) are expected to play an important role in protection of future power grids. By inserting a limiting impedance in series with a line, they limit the increasing levels of the fault currents to acceptable values. Inductive FCLs based on core‐saturation effect are particularly interesting due to their inherent reaction on a fault. However, some challenges are to be solved: too large amount of required material and induced over‐voltage across the DC winding that is used to drive the core into saturation. This paper introduces a new configuration of the inductive FCLs, where the amount of the required material is reduced considerably and the induced over‐voltage across the DC winding is decreased. The amount of magnetic material is reduced by employment of one core per‐phase instead of two. The middle leg of the three‐leg core is used as a shunt path for the AC flux. It enables a gap insertion in the AC magnetic circuit without influencing the DC magnetic circuit, i.e. the amount of DC winding material. Thus, a smaller core (less magnetic material) can be used for the same power level. Results obtained from the lab prototype match very well the one from simulations. © 2011 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Iterative decision‐directed estimation and compensation of nonlinear distortion effects for OFDM systems
Authors: Gacanin Haris , Adachi Fumiyuki 
Published: January 2011

ABSTRACTOrthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been adopted for several wireless network standards due to its robustness against multipath fading. Main drawback of OFDM is its high peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR) that causes a signal degradation in a peak‐limiting (e.g., clipping) channel leading to a higher bit error rate (BER). At the receiver end, the effect of peak limitation can be removed to some extent to improve the system performance. In this paper, a joint iterative channel estimation/equalization and clipping noise reduction technique based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion is presented. The equalization weight that minimizes the mean square error (MSE) between the signal after channel equalization and feedback signal after clipping noise reduction is derived assuming imperfect channel state information (CSI). The MSE performance of the proposed technique is theoretically evaluated. It is shown that the BER performance of OFDM with proposed technique can be significantly improved in a peak‐limited and doubly‐selective (i.e., time‐ and frequency‐selective) fading channel.

Dynamic fractional frequency reuse (D‐FFR) for multicell OFDMA networks using a graph framework
Authors: Chang Ronald Y. , Tao Zhifeng , Zhang Jinyun , Kuo C.‐C. Jay 
Published: January 2011

ABSTRACTA graph‐based framework is proposed in this paper to implement dynamic fractional frequency reuse (D‐FFR) in a multicell Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) network. FFR is a promising resource‐allocation technique that can effectively mitigate intercell interference (ICI) in OFDMA networks. The proposed D‐FFR scheme enhances the conventional FFR by enabling adaptive spectral sharing as per cell‐load conditions. Such adaptation has significant benefits in practical systems where traffic loads in different cells are usually unequal and time‐varying. The dynamic adaptation is accomplished via a graph framework in which the resource‐allocation problem is solved in two phases: (1) constructing an interference graph that matches the specific realization of FFR and the network topology and (2) coloring the graph by use of a heuristic algorithm. Various realizations of FFR can easily be incorporated in the framework by manipulating the first phase. The performance improvement enabled by the proposed D‐FFR scheme is demonstrated by computer simulation for a 19‐cell network with equal and unequal cell loads. In the unequal‐load scenario, the proposed D‐FFR scheme offers significant performance improvement in terms of cell throughput and service rate as compared to conventional FFR and previous interference management schemes.

MVDR‐combining‐aided diversity and spatial multiplexing for MIMO multi‐cellular networks with cochannel interference
Authors: Wang Jui Teng 
Published: January 2011

ABSTRACTTwo multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) schemes (a diversity scheme and a spatial multiplexing scheme) that employ the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) combining are proposed for multi‐cellular networks with cochannel interference. With the receive diversity provided by the MVDR combining, the proposed diversity scheme can be benefited by both the transmit diversity and the receive diversity, also, the proposed spatial multiplexing scheme can be benefited by both the receive diversity and the spatial multiplexing. The proposed MIMO schemes do not require the space‐time coding or the successive interference cancellation, thus they can result in less computational complexity than space‐time block code (STBC) and vertical‐Bell Labs layered space‐time (V‐BLAST). We show that the capacity of the proposed diversity scheme is close to or larger than that of STBC for the noise‐corrupted case and is much larger than that of STBC for the interference‐corrupted case. We also show that the capacity of the proposed spatial multiplexing scheme can be much larger than that of V‐BLAST for the interference‐corrupted case and the noise‐corrupted case, and the proposed spatial multiplexing scheme can achieve good compromise between diversity and spatial multiplexing.

Exact regularity and the cohomology of tiling spaces
Authors: SADUN LORENZO 
Published: January 2011

AbstractExact regularity was introduced recently as a property of homological Pisot substitutions in one dimension. In this paper, we consider the analog of exact regularity for arbitrary tiling spaces. Let T be a d-dimensional repetitive tiling, and let Ω be its hull. If Ȟd(Ω,ℚ)=ℚk, then there exist k patches each of whose appearances governs the number of appearances of every other patch. This gives uniform estimates on the convergence of all patch frequencies to the ergodic limit. If the tiling T comes from a substitution, then we can quantify that convergence rate. If T is also one dimensional, we put constraints on the measure of any cylinder set in Ω.
Tutorial: Query Federation with SWObjects
Authors: Prud’hommeaux Eric , Deus Helena , Marshall M. Scott 
Published: January 2011

AbstractQuery federation is a way to make use of distributed data sources on the Web, including many SPARQL endpoints as well as relational databases. SWObjects makes use of mapping rules represented as SPARQL Constructs to dynamically rewrite the terms and predicates of a SPARQL query into corresponding terms in another vocabulary and connect the resulting query with the appropriate service for answering the query. SWObjects can also rewrite SPARQL queries in SQL, effectively including relational databases alongside SPARQL endpoints in a linked data federation. The author of SWObjects, Eric Prud'hommeaux, is the W3C staff contact for the W3C Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group (HCLS IG) and will give the tutorial via a teleconference connection, with assistance from Helena Deus (University of Texas) and M. Scott Marshall (HCLS IG co-chair).
Mathematical Modeling of the Neuronal Processes in Sugar Addiction
Authors: Almeida Andre , Celaymanian Hamed , Seel Natalie , Zak Boris , Noori Hamid R. 
Published: January 2011

AbstractIt has already been demonstrated that the body responds to enhanced intake of sugar and is conducive to a natural form of addiction. There are substantial neurochemical changes in the brain (especially dopamine and acetylcholine systems) similar to other addictive drugs. A mathematical model comprised by a system of delayed leaky integrate-and-*re equations is established to simulate the eff*ects of sugar on a reward-circuitry. Simulations with Neuron suggest agreement with the neurobiological hypotheses of hyperactivity of neural systems due to binge sugar intake.

The true story behind the annotation of a pathway
Authors: Dall'Olio Giovanni Marco , Laayouni Hafid 
Published: January 2011

AbstractOn 2010 we worked on the annotation of the N-Glycosylation pathway in the Reactome database. During this process, we found some unclear points and errors in other databases, and we reported and helped fix them. After we finished, we realized that the work of reporting errors to a database is basically not acknowledged by the scientific community: this is unfortunate because if only this process would be a bit more recognized and transparent, we could have better data in the databases and a more active community. Moreover, the fact that many databases tend to keep error reporting private creates great issues to the reproducibility of a work.Another way to look at this talk is: if you dedicate 6 months of your PhD thesis to annotate carefully a set of genes, in this case a pathway I have been studying, how many errors do you expect to find in other databases, or what should you be careful at?
Effect of intensity and duration of conditioning protocol on post‐activation potentiation and changes in H‐reflex

Published: January 2011

AbstractThe force enhancement of muscle twitch contraction after a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) has been defined as post‐activation potentiation. However, the effects of post‐activation potentiation on ballistic movements have not been studied extensively, or the underlying neurophysiologycal mechanism. In the current study, we examined post‐activation potentiation and spinal H‐reflex excitability in the soleus muscle. Mechanical power during explosive ballistic plantar flexions was measured in 14 males before and after 5 s, 4 min, and 10 min of isometric conditioning (EPFpre, EPF5s, EPF4min, EPF10min, respectively). Four sessions corresponding to four different protocols of isometric conditioning were conducted. The protocols were different in the intensity (10% vs. 100% of MVC) and duration (7 vs. 10 s) of the isometric conditioning. The results showed a significant enhancement in mechanical power in EPF4min compared with EPFpre, only when the isometric conditioning was performed at 100% of MVC for 10 s. No significant changes were observed in the H‐related parameters (e.g amplitude, threshold, H/M ratio) after the isometric conditioning. Our results show that to obtain a post‐activation potentiation during explosive ballistic movements, the intensity and duration of the isometric conditioning must be controlled. Moreover, the improvement in mechanical power is not related to spinal H‐reflex excitability.
An analysis of competition in young tennis players

Published: January 2011

AbstractThe aim of this study was to analyse the temporal structure of individual tennis play on hard courts in adolescence. Thirty‐two national‐level tennis players (16 females, 16 males) participated in the study (age 15.6±0.9 years, weight 61.7±1.4 kg, height 1.70±0.14 m). All participants played an official competition on hard courts and with the same type of balls. Games were recorded for later analysis of total play time, real play time, and resting time, both in absolute values and as a percentage of total time. The average duration of a point and the number of strokes per rally were also determined. Results showed no differences based on gender, with a total play time of 105.00±20.00 min, real play time of 31.50±5.83 min, and resting time of 73.5±8.50 min. The ratio of work to resting time was 1:2.7, the number of strokes per rally was 5.12±0.17, and a point lasted an average of 9.08±0.60 s. Our results show the importance of keeping in mind the technical evolution of players at this age, with the goal of reaching maximum athletic performance. The adolescent players showed approximately the same number of strokes per rally, but with a greater average duration compared with adult elite athletes.
