Convective heat transfer correlations for fenestration glazing cavities: A review (1999)

Convective heat transfer in insulated glazing unit (IGU) cavities is a major component of the overall heat transfer in fenestration systems. Accurately quantifying the heat-transfer coefficient within the cavity is of great significance in calculating the center-of-glass U factor, the edge-of-glass U factor, and therefore the overall U factor. Over the past 40 years, along with the rapid development of experimental techniques and numerical methods as well as the powerful computer systems, the heat-transfer correlations have been updated either from experimental data or from numerical data from time to time. The literature reviewed here covers correlations based on simplified analytical studies, on the experimental data, and on the numerical results. In addition, most of the correlation equations cover the typical design range of fenestration glazing cavities, e.g., Ra < 20,000. Inconsistencies and discrepancies existing between different experimental observations, and between derived numerical/analytical correlations and available experimental data, are discussed.
Fabrication of binary Fresnel lenses in PMMA by femtosecond laser micromachining (2011)

Binary Fresnel lenses are fabricated by ablation of PMMA substrates with a femtosecond laser. The minimum feature size in our experimental conditions is 600 nm. Lenses with good transparency and focal lengths in the range from 500μm to 5mm are obtained, with a maximum efficiency close to the theoretical one.
Outlook of dengue in Malaysia: a century later. (2002)

Dengue continues to be a major health threat to Malaysia a century after its first reported outbreak in 1902. Examination of the available outbreak data suggested that a major DF/DHF outbreak occurred in Malaysia in a cyclical pattern of approximately every 8 years. All four dengue virus serotypes are found co-circulating in Malaysia, but after the first and only major outbreak involving DEN-4 in 1960's, only DEN-1, DEN-2 and DEN-3 were associated with DF/DHF outbreaks. It is argued that perhaps the spread of the later dengue virus serotypes followed the pattern of spread of the mosquito vector Aedes aegypti, whereas the former was associated with Aedes albopictus, the outdoor and rural area dwelling mosquito. Estimating from the trend and pattern of dengue and the associated dengue virus serotypes, unless there is a major breakthrough in dengue vaccine development, it is likely that dengue outbreaks will continue to occur in Malaysia throughout the 21st century.
Cognitive Radio and Networking Research at Virginia Tech (2009)

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> More than a dozen Wireless @ Virginia Tech faculty are working to address the broad research agenda of cognitive radio and cognitive networks. Our core research team spans the protocol stack from radio and reconfigurable hardware to communications theory to the networking layer. Our work includes new analysis methods and the development of new software architectures and applications, in addition to work on the core concepts and architectures underlying cognitive radios and cognitive networks. This paper describes these contributions and points towards critical future work that remains to fulfill the promise of cognitive radio. We briefly describe the history of work on cognitive radios and networks at Virginia Tech and then discuss our contributions to the core cognitive processing underlying these systems, focusing on our cognitive engine. We also describe developments that support the cognitive engine and advances in radio technology that provide the flexibility desired in a cognitive radio node. We consider securing and verifying cognitive systems and examine the challenges of expanding the cognitive paradigm up the protocol stack to optimize end-to-end network performance. Lastly, we consider the analysis of cognitive systems using game theory and the application of cognitive techniques to problems in dynamic spectrum sharing and control of multiple-input multiple-output radios. </para>
The ambiguous ripening nature of the fig (Ficus carica L.) fruit: a gene-expression study of potential ripening regulators and ethylene-related genes (2015)

The traditional definition of climacteric and non-climacteric fruits has been put into question. A significant example of this paradox is the climacteric fig fruit. Surprisingly, ripening-related ethylene production increases following pre- or postharvest 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) application in an unexpected auto-inhibitory manner. In this study, ethylene production and the expression of potential ripening-regulator, ethylene-synthesis, and signal-transduction genes are characterized in figs ripening on the tree and following preharvest 1-MCP application. Fig ripening-related gene expression was similar to that in tomato and apple during ripening on the tree, but only in the fig inflorescence-drupelet section. Because the pattern in the receptacle is different for most of the genes, the fig drupelets developed inside the syconium are proposed to function as parthenocarpic true fruit, regulating ripening processes for the whole accessory fruit. Transcription of a potential ripening regulator, FcMADS8, increased during ripening on the tree and was inhibited following 1-MCP treatment. Expression patterns of the ethylene-synthesis genes FcACS2, FcACS4, and FcACO3 could be related to the auto-inhibition reaction of ethylene production in 1-MCP-treated fruit. Along with FcMADS8 suppression, gene expression analysis revealed upregulation of FcEBF1, and downregulation of FcEIL3 and several FcERFs by 1-MCP treatment. This corresponded with the high storability of the treated fruit. One FcERF was overexpressed in the 1-MCP-treated fruit, and did not share the increasing pattern of most FcERFs in the tree-ripened fig. This demonstrates the potential of this downstream ethylene-signal-transduction component as an ethylene-synthesis regulator, responsible for the non-climacteric auto-inhibition of ethylene production in fig.

Obstetrical Outcome of Anti‐Inflammatory and Anticoagulation Therapy in Women with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss or Unexplained Infertility (2012)

The incidences of PE, GDM, SGA, LGA, early preterm birth, and abruptio placentae are not increased in women with RPL or UI who were administered anti-inflammatory and anticoagulation treatment compared to general population. The potential role of anti-inflammatory and anticoagulation treatment in prevention of obstetrical complications in women with immune abnormalities and thrombophilia is suggested.

Stability of time-delay reset control systems with time-dependent resetting law**This work was supported by FEDER (European Union), ‘Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovaci_on’ of Spain under project DPI2010-20466-C02-02 and the ANR Project LIMICOS 12-BS03-005-01. (2015)

This work presents results on the stability of time-delay reset control systems under time-dependent resetting conditions. The stability of a reset control system composed by a time-delay process and a proportional and integrative plus Clegg integrator (PI+CI) compensator is tackled by using the framework of sampled-data systems. It leads to sufficient stability conditions expressed in terms of LMIs (Linear Matrix Inequality), that depend explicitly on the reset times. In contrast to previous results, the proposed conditions allow to guarantee the stability of reset systems with unstable base system.
EPA-1718 - Neuropathological alterations in FTD cases with C9ORF72 mutation - new insights (2014)

A G4C2 repeat extension in the first intron of C9ORF72 is the most common cause of familial frontotemporal dementia with and without motoneuron disease or atypical Parkinsonism. We recently found that the characteristic p62 positive/TDP43 negative neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions (NCIs) mainly seen in cerebellum und hippocampus consist of different dipeptide repeat proteins (DPRs) generated by an ATG independent translation of stable sense and antisense transcripts of the extended intron. After creating specific antibodies against all potential DPRs resulting from different reading frames, we investigated their regional and cellular distribution pattern in the central nervous system of autopsy cases with C9ORF72 mutation by immunohistochemistry. Aggregates of all DPRs were seen in neuronal cell bodies and processes. Glycine-alanine and glycine-prolin DPRs dominated. NCIs were abundant in all neocortical areas, in the hippocampal formation and in cerebellum, less frequent in subcortical nuclei, and rare in brain stem and spinal cord following a rostro-caudal gradient. Different DPRs were found in the same NCI. The regional distribution pattern of NCIs was similar in all clinical subtypes, and did not directly correlate with neurodegeneration. DPRs and TDP43 that usually also aggregates in C9ORF72 mutation cases were rarely co-localized in the same NCI. In case of co-localization DPR proteins formed a central core surrounded by TDP43. The detection of DPR inclusions directly connects the mutation with specific neuropathological alterations. The formation of DPR inclusions seems to precede the formation of TDP43 inclusions. If there is a neurotoxic effect of DPRs, DPR inclusions might be neuroprotective.
Comparison of bandwidth expansion methods for optical transmission systems (2012)

PDM-QPSK and PDM-BPSK are compared against PS-QPSK and PQ-16PPM with equal bandwidth expansion factors. The results show that better sensitivity is achieved by using strong FEC codes on standard modulation formats rather than using high-sensitivity modulation formats.
The First Cyclodiasteromeric [3]Rotaxane (1999)

A mechanically linked molecule, consisting of an axle and two equivalent wheels, shows an analogous stereochemistry to the classical example tartaric acid. Though the components are not chiral themselves, a (cyclo)diastereomeric species is obtained, the enantiomers (shown schematically) and the meso form of which were completely separated and chiroptically characterized.
Application of an Optimal Preview Control for Simulation of Closed-Loop Automobile Driving (1981)

An optimal preview control method is applied to the automobile path following problem. The technique is first used to examine the straight-line regulatory driving task and results compared with similar experimental measurements. The method is further demonstrated by closedloop simulation of an automobile driver/vehicle system during transient lane-change maneuvers. The computer simulation results are compared with equivalent vehicle test measurements.
Expression of sodium-D-glucose cotranspotre SGLT1 (SLC5A1) in murine organs (2013)

Previous studies have demonstrated a high affinity/low capacity sodium-D-glucose cotransporter Sglt1 (Slc5a1) in the brush-border membrane (BBM) of small intestine absorptive cells and proximal tubule (PT) epithelial cells, where Sglt1 mediates glucose (re)absorption. However, the detailed localization of mouse Sglt1 (mSglt1) along the nephron, and its cellular distribution in other organs is unknown. Here, we compared wild-type (Sglt1+/+) and Sglt1 knock-out (Sglt1-/-) mice in order to describe the cell localization of mSglt1 protein and mRNA expression in various organs. Localization of mSglt1 protein was analyzed by immunocytochemistry (IC) and Western blotting (WB) using the anti-mSglt1 antibody whose specificity was previously confirmed in Sglt1 knock-out mice. The expression level of mSglt1 mRNA was analyzed by RT-PCR. mSglt1 protein was localized in the BBM of PT, where it exhibited segmental (S2>S3) and zonal (cortex>outer stripe) differences, in the apical domains of thick ascending limb of Henle, liver bile ducts, and pancreatic ducts. This staining was not observed in the respective organs of Sglt1 knock-out mice. RT-PCR data were comparable to IC data. By WB, a single mSglt1-related protein band of 75 kDa was detected in the kidney BBM. By IC and RT-PCR, mSglt1 expression was not detected in the brain, spleen and skeletal muscle. This study provides new insight into mSglt1 expression in various mouse organs, thus enabling a better understanding of the role of mSglt1 in future physiological, pathophysiological, pharmacological, and toxicological studies.
Effect of thioctic acid on pyramidal cell responses in the rat hippocampus in vitro. (1996)

The action of two isomers of thioctic acid was tested in-vitro by using the hippocampal slice technique. Various models to induce hyperexcitability of the pyramidal cells were used in order to characterize the drug action. Increases of the applied glucose above the usual concentration of 10 mM lead to a concentration dependent enhancement of the population spike amplitude peaking in a 200% increase at a concentration of 30 mM, whereas lower glucose concentrations result in diminished amplitudes. Both isomers of thioctic acid antagonize the hyperexcitability to a different degree with IC50's of 43 microM and 281 microM for the l- and the d-isomer, respectively. As thioctic acid passes the blood brain barrier very well, these results might suggest a protective action of thioctic acid on the brain during hyperglycemic episodes in diabetic patients. Regarding the mechanism of action, thioctic acid firstly reverses the effect of 6 mM calcium in the superfusion fluid and secondly reverses the effect of apamin, an highly selective neurotoxin of bee venom, acting as the most specific blocker of the small conductance calcium dependent potassium channel. As this channel has been described to occur also in liver, an interaction with it may underly the central and peripheral action of thioctic acid. Together with the already available evidence, these experiments support the hypothesis that thioctic acid can be regarded as a stereoselective neuroprotective agent preventing cells from being damaged by excess of calcium or hyperexcitability induced by blockade of a specific class of potassium channels.
Short-time Fourier analysis of sampled speech (1981)

The theoretical basis for the representation of a speech signal by its short-time Fourier transform is developed. A time-frequency representation for linear time-varying systems is applied to the speech-production model to formulate a quasi-stationary representation for the speech waveform. Short-time Fourier analysis of the resulting representation yields the relationship between the short-time Fourier transform of the speech and the speech-production model.

Effect of indocyanine green intraocular stain on human and rabbit corneal endothelial structure and viability (2002)

Three-minute exposure to ICG in BSS had no adverse effect on corneal endothelial function, ultrastructure, or viability in human and rabbit corneas. This study provides a safety profile for the corneal endothelium when ICG is used as an intraocular tissue stain in ophthalmic surgery.
Segmental cerebral vasoconstriction: Successful treatment of secondary cerebral ischaemia with intravenous prostacyclin (2010)

We describe a 23-year-old male patient who presented with spontaneous intermittent and increasing attacks of severe, left-sided thunderclap headache combined with rapidly progressive muscle weakness and dysphasia, including gradual loss of consciousness. Subsequent CT, MRI and DSA showed progressive brain ischaemia and oedema within the left cerebral hemisphere with strict ipsilateral segmental arterial vasoconstriction. Despite extensive medical care, including steroids, the patient deteriorated rapidly. However, the clinical course changed dramatically within 15 h after the start of an intravenous infusion of prostacyclin at a dose of 0.9 ng/kg/min, with an almost complete recovery of consciousness and speech. In addition the pathophysiological alterations seen on magnetic resonance (imaging and digital) subtraction angiography including diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient maps shortly before prostacyclin treatment were clearly reduced when the patient was examined 3-4 days later and he continued to recover thereafter. Although not fully compatible, our case had several clinical characteristics and radiological findings reminiscent of those of the 'segmental reversible vasoconstriction syndrome', sometimes called the Call-Fleming syndrome.

“Candidatus Paraporphyromonas polyenzymogenes” encodes multi-modular cellulases linked to the type IX secretion system (2018)

We propose that Ca. P. polyenzymogene genotypes and other Ca. MH11 members actively degrade plant biomass in the rumen of cows, sheep and most likely other ruminants, utilizing singular and multi-domain catalytic CAZymes secreted through the T9SS. The discovery of a prominent role of multi-modular cellulases in the Gram-negative Bacteroidetes, together with similar findings for Gram-positive cellulosomal bacteria (Ruminococcus flavefaciens) and anaerobic fungi (Orpinomyces sp.), suggests that complex enzymes are essential and have evolved within all major cellulolytic dominions inherent to the rumen.
Deciphering a transcriptional regulatory code: modeling short‐range repression in the Drosophila embryo (2010)

Systems biology seeks a genomic-level interpretation of transcriptional regulatory information represented by patterns of protein-binding sites. Obtaining this information without direct experimentation is challenging; minor alterations in binding sites can have profound effects on gene expression, and underlie important aspects of disease and evolution. Quantitative modeling offers an alternative path to develop a global understanding of the transcriptional regulatory code. Recent studies have focused on endogenous regulatory sequences; however, distinct enhancers differ in many features, making it difficult to generalize to other cis-regulatory elements. We applied a systematic approach to simpler elements and present here the first quantitative analysis of short-range transcriptional repressors, which have central functions in metazoan development. Our fractional occupancy-based modeling uncovered unexpected features of these proteins' activity that allow accurate predictions of regulation by the Giant, Knirps, Krüppel, and Snail repressors, including modeling of an endogenous enhancer. This study provides essential elements of a transcriptional regulatory code that will allow extensive analysis of genomic information in Drosophila melanogaster and related organisms.
16S rDNA-based phylogeny of sulphur-oxidising bacterial endosymbionts in marine bivalves from cold-seep habitats (2003)

The phylogenetic relationship of sulphur-oxidising endosymbiotic bacteria from bivalves of the families Vesicomyidae (Calyptogena sp. C1, Calyptogena sp. C3), Solemyidae (Acharax sp.) and Thyasiridae (Conchocele sp.) from cold-seep habitats were determined by 16S rDNA nucleotide sequence analyses. The endosymbiotic bacteria form distinct groups within the gamma-Proteobacteria and are well separated from each other and from free-living sulphur-oxidising bacteria of the genera Beggiatoa, Halothiobacillus and Thiomicrospira. The endosymbiotic bacteria of Acharax sp. from cold seeps off Oregon, Indonesia and Pakistan have sequences highly similar to each other but quite distinct from other thiotrophic endosymbionts. This includes endosymbionts from Solemya spp., to which they are distantly related. Symbiotic bacteria of Conchocele sp. from a cold seep in the Sea of Okhotsk are similar to those of Bathymodiolus thermophilus and related species, as shown by their overall sequence similarity and by signature sequences. The endosymbiotic bacteria of Calyptogena spp. from cold seeps off Oregon and Pakistan are closely related to those of other vesicomyids. Endosymbiont species found off Oregon corresponded to 2 different clusters of Calyptogena spp. symbionts in the same samples. The results corroborate the hypothesis of a monophyletic origin of the symbionts in vesicomyid clams, and support the existence of deeply branching groups in solemyid symbionts and of divergent lines and distribution for thyasirid symbionts. The results also indicate that certain symbiont species cluster according to the depth distribution of their hosts, and that in consequence host species together with their symbionts may have undergone depth-specific adaptation and evolution.
