description: Rhabdosciadium aucheri has a limited distribution in west, center, and south of Iran. The aim of the present study was to assess essential oil content and variability in seven natural populations employing GC-FID and GC-MS analyses. Aerial parts of the specimens were collected at the full flowering stage. Overall, 27 chemical components were determined in the populations. The essential oil yields varied from 0.05% to 0.12%. The most abundant compounds were germacrene D (10.7–51.7%), β-sesquiphellandrene (0.8–54.6%), β-elemene (0.3–39.5%), juniper camphor (3.5–20.8%), limonene (0.4–19.6%) and α-pinene (0.4–4.5%) among the populations. Due to some variations observed in the essential oil components between populations, four different chemotypes were recognized including Chemotype I (germacrene D/β-sesquiphellandrene/juniper camphor), Chemotype II (β-elemene/germacrene D), Chemotype III (germacrene D/β-sesquiphellandrene) and Chemotype IV (β-elemene/germacrene D). The variations that occurred in chemical compositions among populations could be valuable in the pharmaceutical industries and conservation strategies.

description: Key to understanding local site conditions is the shallow shear-wave velocity structure. In the southwest corner of Utah near the rapidly growing urban areas of  St. George and Cedar City, there currently exist no available data for characterizing site class units. This region has the potential for experiencing magnitude 6.5 or larger events. The University of Utah Seismograph Stations recently installed an urban strong-motion network in the region and there is also a need to characterize the shallow velocity structures at the sensor locations. In order to determine the shallow shear-wave velocity structure in and near St. George and Cedar City, we collected microtremor data using an array of four (three-component) broadband seismometers at six sites. We processed these data by (1) calculating the coherency between sensors, (2) calculating the horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (HVSR),  and (3) calculating phase velocity dispersion curves. We determine the shallow S-wave velocity structure by a forward modeling approach using the Multimode  spatial autocorrelation method (MMSPAC) and comparing predicted Rayleigh wave fundamental mode ellipticity curves to HVSR data. S-wave velocity models obtained  at all sites seem reasonable given what is known of the geology with the exception of one site near Cedar City. The average S-wave velocity in the upper 30 meters (Vs30) is between 360 and 760 m/s for all six sites. This is the velocity range corresponding to NEHRP site class unit C.

Statistical analysis of detuning effects for implantable microstrip antennas
Creators: name: Johnson, Jeffrey D

Subjects: Artificial implants
Biotelemetry communication

description: Microstrip antennas are an attractive option for biotelemetry communication  between implanted medical devices and external control systems due to their small size  and ability to be integrated with the implanted device. These antennas may be placed in  the shoulder or chest cavity for cardiac devices, under the skin behind the ear for artificial  hearing devices, or under the lens of the eye for retinal prostheses. Thus, the antenna's  actual operating environment can have substantial variation due to placement location,  differences between individuals, and also from uncertainties in the electrical properties of  the biological tissues. These variations can be described statistically, and the purpose of  this thesis is to evaluate the resultant variation in the antenna performance from these  variations.  In this thesis, we apply an analytical technique called the variational method to  solve for the effective relative permittivity, ereff, and effective conductivity, aeff, of a  microstrip antenna placed under muscle, fat, and skin layers with statistically variable  thicknesses and electrical properties. The variational method was used to solve the quasistatic  Poisson's equation for electric potential in a multilayered medium. The resulting  integral expression was then solved numerically using a Monte Carlo simulation method  by which the effects of tissue variations, discussed above, were studied. These  simulations were used to calculate ereff and aeff for thousands of different configurations  of dielectric layer thickness and constitutive parameters. These values were then used to quantify detuning effects such as shifts in resonant frequency and the resultant reduction  in useable bandwidth of the implanted antenna.  The simulations used two types of input data. First, the measured means and  standard deviations for the constitutive parameters, sr and o, for muscle, fat, and skin  tissues were used to generate randomly varying, normally distributed, electrical  properties. Second, superstrate and tissue thicknesses were randomly chosen (uniformly  distributed) within ranges considered appropriate for the particular area in the body being  studied. The simulation data were statistically analyzed by fitting their empirical  distributions to the lognormal distribution function. The parameters of these fitting  functions were estimated and used to calculate confidence intervals on expected  variations in resonant frequency. The effect of superstrate thickness on reduction of this  variation was demonstrated.

Switching power supplies

description: The purpose of this thesis was to determine if low-power switching power supplies can be made on-chip using integrated components. Integrated switching supplies are an emerging field that has followed the rise of systems-on-chip devices - especially in the biomedical field. Switching supply theory and implementation were  examined systematically to determine the feasibility of such switching supplies.  Classical switching power supply theory was presented first, including fundamental principles of operation and essential analysis techniques. Due to the unique constraints placed on integrated power supplies as a result of the small component size, the classical treatment had to be updated and modified. The result was a new methodology for calculating ripple current and voltage, circuit losses, and efficiency of switching supplies in both continuous and discontinuous conduction modes. Integrated and micro-scale switching supply components were then examined. Most importantly,  the design of integrated inductors was discussed. Double-layer coils were found to be the best choice for integrated inductors with a small number of coils as they offered four times the inductance and only twice the resistance of similar single-layer coils.  Six boards were tested using a variety of loads with manual switching cycle control. The test boards effectively modeled the behavior of integrated supplies and confirmed predictions about power loss and transfer. Using the test results and the equations previously derived, three test cases were simulated. The results were efficiencies of 75.16%, 75.09%, and 75.10% using 2 and 5 turn double spirals, and an external 120 nH coil, respectively. With these results, it should be possible to build integrated switching power supplies that meet or exceed the efficiency of linear supplies.

Hospitals - Admission and discharge

description: This study examined frequency of hospital admission for nursing home resident for two 6-month periods, 1 year apart to observe changes following introduction of a Teaching Nursing Home Project (TNH).  Hospital admitting diagnosis and length of stay proved comparative data on admissions.  The person contacting the physician for hospital admission was identified to determine involvement of Geriatric Nurse Practitioners (GNPs).  Trends for residents followed by the Interdisciplinary Team were examined.  A noted decrease in frequency of hospital admissions with and increased average daily census was not statistically significant.  Hospital length of stay was longer with increasing age in the first period.   This trend was reversed the second period.  The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) initiated the greater number of admission the first period, and the Register Nurse (RN) and Medical Doctor (MD) initiated more the second period.  Team resident were older than the sample, and had longer hospitalizations the second period, with admission initiated by GNP.

description: Over the course of one year, we systematically observed instruction in nearly all large gateway STEM courses at the University of California, Irvine to assess the prevalence of promising instructional practices and their implications for student success. More than half of the courses included promising instructional practices. Our most conservative student fixed-effects models suggest that students earn slightly higher grades in courses where instructors use explicit epistemological instruction, frequent assessment, and interactive instruction. Although we find no evidence to suggest that these strategies have lasting effects for the average UC Irvine student, we do find they have unique positive effects on the achievement of first-generation college students.

Cloning and characterization of the BRCA1 gene

Publisher: name: University of Utah

description: Approximately 10% of all American women develop breast cancer during their lifetimes.  A genetic trait which is passed through families in an autosomal dominant fashion is responsible for 5% to 10% of the cases.  Women who care a breast cancer susceptibility gene have an 85% lifetime risk of breast cancer and also often have an increased risk of ovarian cancer.  In 1990, a report was published that demonstrated that breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility in some families was genetically linked to chromosome 17q.  This thesis describes work performed in the research group led by Mark H. Skolnick which ultimately cloned the gene, BRCA1.  To clone BRCA1, it was first necessary to confirm and refine the genetic linkage in Utah breast cancer families.  For this purpose, polymorphic microsatellites were used as genetic markers.  Initially the physical positions of genetic markers which flanked BRCA1 were confirmed through a panel of hybrid cell lines.  Markers with the region containing the gene were then used as starting points for the assembly of YAC contigs, which were subsequently used as frameworks for fine-scale physical mapping.  This finer mapping utilized small clones in vectors, such as P1s and BACs, from which additional genetic and physical markers could be readily obtained to increasingly refine the region.  During this work, one new PCR-based technique was developed that significantly aided in obtaining markers from YACs as well as other clones.  Ultimately, BRCA1 was localized to a 600 kilobase region that was entirely covered by a P1 and PAC contig.  It was necessary to identify and characterize the potential candidate genes which were present.  Each candidate gene was amplified in segments by PCR from the DNA or cDNA of mutation-carriers, then completely sequenced  to identify germline mutations which would indicate the gene was BRCA1.  Ultimately, loss of function mutations in affected BRCA1 family members pinpointed one gene with a 7.8 kilobase transcript as BRCA1.  BRCA1 proved to have little similarity to other know genes.  Current research suggest that BRCA1 and the more recently-discovered BRCA2 are both involved in DNA double strand break repair.

Other: Dalla Torre 1912: 194 (none - treated (as Lachnosterna sericata) as a possible synonym of P. leprieuri (Blanchard, 1851) (as L. leprieuri )); Frey 1975 (not mentioned).
Note 1. Blackwelder (1944: 225) considers Phyllophaga sericata (Erichson, 1848) (p. 563) as a synonym of P. leprieuri (Blanchard, 1851) (p. 134), but according to Evans and Smith (2009: 130) these are separate species.
Note 2. Ancylonycha sericata Blanchard, 1851 (p. 136) is a junior homonym of Phyllophaga sericata (Erichson, 1848) and has been given the replacement name P. yucana Saylor, 1937 (p. 321). Phyllophaga yucana is a species from Venezuela and Colombia and has not been recorded for the research area.
Note 3. Phyllophaga sericata is described as Ancylonycha sericata in Erichson (1848: 563). This entire publication is dedicated to the biodiversity of present-day Guyana, and it is unclear to us why subsequent authors (Blackwelder 1944: 225; Evans and Smith 2009: 130) mention the species only for French Guiana. Because of the clarity of the location in the describing publication, we are hesitant to blame this anomaly on a misinterpretation of the data. For now, we regard this species as recorded from Guyana as well as French Guiana.

description: This paper investigates the optimum processing conditions of microwave assisted extraction (MAE) of anthraquinone (aloe emodin, AE) and flavonoids (kaempferol 3-gentiobioside, K3G and kaempferol, KA) from Senna alata (L.) Roxb. The kinetic study indicates that MAE showed a greater extraction rate, compared to ultrasonic-assisted and maceration, due to the enhanced power which altered the leaf microstructures. The optimisation was undertaken using one-factor-at-a-time, two-level factorial design and central composite design were used to maximise the yield of the target compounds. The optimum yield of K3G (4.27 mg/g DW), KA (8.54 mg/g DW) and AE (0.86 mg/g DW) was obtained at 90.5% ethanol, microwave power of 18.6 W/mL with a desirability of 0.82. In addition, the yield of K3G and KA is correlated positively with the antioxidant activity.

description: Functional and phylogenetic diversity are increasingly used to infer the important community assembly processes that have structured local communities, which is one of the most fundamental issues in ecology. However, there are critical assumptions and pitfalls associated with these analyses, which can create ambiguity in interpreting results. Here, we present a conceptual framework which integrates three approaches to reduce the likelihood of drawing incorrect conclusions from analyses of functional and phylogenetic diversity (FD and PD, respectively): testing hypotheses for how diversity measures and ecological processes vary along an environmental gradient;analysis of both FD and PD in concert; andcareful selection of traits related to processes of interest for inclusion in FD analyses. testing hypotheses for how diversity measures and ecological processes vary along an environmental gradient; analysis of both FD and PD in concert; and careful selection of traits related to processes of interest for inclusion in FD analyses. We describe the utility of each of these recommendations and show, using hypothetical examples, how combining these approaches can strengthen one’s ability to correctly infer community assembly. We present this framework in the context of identifying the signatures of interspecific competition and environmental filtering, important processes that operate in many systems across different taxa and are most often referred to in the FD and PD literature. We provide examples showing how our framework can be used to test general hypotheses such as the Stress-Dominance Hypothesis, which predicts a shift in the relative importance of environmental filtering and competition along a gradient of environmental stress, using PD and FD calculated separately for alpha (competition-related) traits and beta (environmental filtering-related) traits. Our approach can be applied to other processes besides competition and environmental filtering. This framework has the potential to enhance comparability between studies, allow for testing of alternative hypotheses regarding changes in community assembly processes along gradients, and improve interpretations of FD and PD analyses.

description: A Health Maintenance Facility (HMF) is being designed to provide all medical services which Space Station crew members may require. As part of the background research required to define the medical care capabilities of the HMF, this research investigated the spectrum of medical events which Space Station crews could be expected to encounter. Active duty U.S. Army personnel served as a study population for the gathering of epidemiological data on all categories of disease. After taking into account the differences between astronauts and Army personnel and their respective environments, the Army data was used to predict Space Station epidemiology. Simulations of Space Station medical history provided examples of possible medical scenarios.  The research predicts that, excluding major disasters and risks posed by specific hazardous activities, the HMF equivalent of hospitalization of a crew member will occur in approximately one out of ten six-person crews. Under the same conditions, the probability of overlapping periods of illness for two persons requiring hospitalization is 4.9x10'^ per 90-day mission per six-person crew, or one in 2061.  A prioritization score was calculated for each category of disease or injury, based on probability of occurrence and the severity of consequences associated with each category. It was proposed that priority scores be used in the selection of equipment, supplies, and crew medical training for the HMF. Acute myocardial infarction emerged as the highest priority category, followed by cardiac arrhythmias, affective psychoses, various traumatic injuries, complications of medical care, and renal calculi, among others.  A method was proposed for assessing the adequacy of any given configuration of the HMF using cumulative density functions for percent total mortality, disability, sick days, and priority score.""

Alport's syndrom - Genetic aspects

description: The genetic mapping of many X-linked disease genes has been hindered by the uninformative nature of the majority of the X chromosome DNA probes currently available. In an attempt to identify X chromosome-specific highly polymorphic markers, the X chromosome DOE library LAOXNL01 was screened with three oligonucleotides representative of minisatellite consensus sequences. The Ch35 phage library had been amplified on a recA- host and was considered likely to have maintained an excellent representation of genomic sequences because of the absence of recA and the inhibition of the RecBC nuclease by the Ch35 gam+ gene. A total of 170 clones was isolated by hybridization with oligonucleotide sequences and tested for polymorphism on five random female DNAs with six enzymes. Among the 54 clones demonstrating a polymorphic pattern, 48 different loci were represented. Eleven of these (20%) were determined not to be of X origin. The polymorphisms of the remaining 37 clones were characterized and reported as new restriction fragment length polymorphisms for the X chromosome. A pattern of similar length variation with multiple enzymes, indicative of a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism, was demonstrated in 6/11 (55%) of the non-X clones. However, only 4/37 (11%) of the X clones clearly had VNTR characteristics, suggesting a decreased amount of VNTR polymorphism on the X chromosome. The 37 polymorphic X markers were physically localized by hybridization to a set of rodent-human somatic cell hybrid DNAs representing nine different X breakpoints. An informative subset of 114 individuals from a very large (n > 900) Utah kindred demonstrating X-linked Alport Syndrome was screened with markers from the Xq21.2 - q22 region. Two markers, QST-7 and KZO-33, have demonstrated linkage to the Alport Syndrome gene with a LOD score of 10.0 (theta = 0.07) and 3.5 (theta = 0.05) respectively. Preliminary CEPH family data have been collected and analyzed for contribution to the genetic map of the Alport gene region.

Tactile interface

description: The study of haptic interfaces focuses on the use of the sense of touch in human-machine interaction. This document presents a detailed investigation of lateral skin  stretch at the fingertip as a means of direction communication. Such tactile communication has applications in a variety of situations where traditional audio and visual channels are inconvenient, unsafe, or already saturated. Examples include handheld consumer electronics, where tactile communication would allow a user to control a device without having to look at it, or in-car navigation systems, where the audio and visual directions provided by existing GPS devices can distract the driver's attention away from the road.  Lateral skin stretch, the displacement of the skin of the fingerpad in a plane tangent to the fingerpad, is a highly effective means of communicating directional information. Users are able to correctly identify the direction of skin stretch stimuli with skin displacements as small as 0.1 mm at rates as slow as 2 mm/s. Such stimuli can be rendered by a small, portable device suitable for integration into handheld devices. The design of the device-finger interface affects the ability of the user to perceive the stimuli accurately. A properly designed conical aperture effectively constrains the motion of the finger and provides an interface that is practical for use in handheld devices. When a handheld device renders directional tactile cues on the fingerpad, the user must often mentally rotate those cues from the reference frame of the finger to the world-centered reference frame where those cues are to be applied. Such mental rotation incurs a cognitive cost, requiring additional time to mentally process the stimuli. The magnitude of these cognitive costs is a function of the angle of rotation, and of the specific orientations of the arm, wrist and finger. Even with the difficulties imposed by required mental rotations, lateral skin stretch is a promising means of communicating information using the sense of touch with potential to substantially improve certain types of human-machine interaction.

description: This academic thesis is the result of the bibliographic review research to elaborate the final work of conclusion of the specialization course MBA on Business Strategy postgraduate degree. The objective was to map studies carried out in the area of hospitality, with a cut in the segment of small and medium-sized hotel companies in the State of São Paulo. Information and data on this sector were also raised, which allowed to delineate a panorama of its current situation. The result of the research and the systematization of the data found will make it possible to indicate and subsidize future researches necessary in this field, especially on the adequacy of the sector to the existing hotel market. Existing Means of Lodging were surveyed according to hotel segmentation and current segmentation practices in the State of São Paulo, according to data from the Tourism Regionalization Program of the Ministry of Tourism. They include 28 consolidated macro tourist regions that have adopted the following parameters: geographical proximity, attractions and specific local tourist characteristics. These have been the basis for the development of programs and projects by the Government of the State of São Paulo. The data obtained and the literature review allowed to evaluate the current situation of the positioning of these companies. The results indicate that the adequacy and improvement of strategic positioning should be practiced for the improvement of its Market Share and, consequently, for the increase of the sales in order to keep them competitive in the market and aiming, mainly, the confrontation of modalities of Disruptive marketing.

description: Maryland is a dense and rapidly growing state. For this and other reasons, Maryland has been a national leader in a movement known as smart growth. Smart growth has many objectives, but concentrating urban growth in well defined areas while protecting rural land from development are perhaps its primary goals. Though public support for smart growth continues to rise, so do concerns that policies used to promote smart growth could have adverse effects on land and housing markets. To evaluate these concerns, this study provides information on housing markets and development trends in the Baltimore-Washington corridor.The study finds that housing demand in the nation and in Maryland is strong, as revealed by rising prices and homeownership rates as well as by falling vacancy rates and housing-to-jobs ratios. In general, the housing market in Maryland exhibits trends similar to those in comparable jurisdictions, such as neighboring Virginia. The performance of specific housing markets in Maryland, however, varies widely, with strong growth in the suburbs, variable growth in rural areas and persistent weakness in Baltimore City. Further, in the Baltimore and Washington suburbs, housing prices are rising rapidly while housing starts remain sluggish. Though this study does not prove that housing markets and development trends in Maryland have been adversely affected by land use policies, there is evidence to suggest that state and local constraints on development are contributing to problems of housing affordability and deflecting growth to outlying areas. The result could be more, not less, urban sprawl. Moreover, neither the state government nor most local governments in Maryland currently have adequate policies in place to monitor or address this problem. While the Maryland Smart Growth initiative has been successful in protecting natural areas and agricultural lands from development, it has not had similar success in assuring a steady, future supply of affordable housing. Local governments, meanwhile, appear to have little incentive to address this problem. To address this problem the state needs to assure that local governments address development capacity and housing affordability issues. This does not mean it should eliminate or immediately expand Priority Funding Areas. It does mean that the state should require local governments to include housing elements in their comprehensive plans, provide periodic estimates of housing and employment capacity, and develop modern and publicly accessible data on the location and capacity of developable land. Local governments must be active and willing participants in this process and the Maryland Department of Planning should provide whatever technical assistance may be needed.
