[Pathophysiology of the abdominal wall]. (1996)

The use of biomaterials for closure of incisional hernias requires meshes adjusted to the physiological forces. The intraabdominal pressure is mainly influenced by the activity of the transverse muscles. The abdominal fascia of corpses withstands forces of 60-80 N/cm in horizontal and 20-30 N/cm in vertical direction; tearing of sutures occurs below 30 N/cm in horizontal direction. Assuming the abdominal cavity to be a thin hollow sphere, the rupture forces are approximately 4-16 N/cm for a diameter of 8-3 cm. The meshes currently in use are much stronger than this, rupturing at 40-100 N/cm. The curvature of the abdominal surface can be measured by 3D-photogrammetry and is highly significantly reduced following mesh implantation (t-test, 2-sided, P < 0.01). Reduction of the mesh material can decrease the rate of local wound complications and the stiffness of the abdominal wall.
Un nouveau brancard sur roue, par M. le Dr Scholze (1900)

Nous trouvons la description de cet ingénieux système dans la Deutsche Militärärztliche Zeitschrift , d'après une communication, faite par M. le Dr Scholze, Oberstabsarzt à Mayence, au Congrès des naturalistes et médecins allemands en septembre dernier, à Munich. Le brancard roulant de M. le Dr Scholze n'a qu'une roue. On connaît les critiques adressées au système à deux roues: maniement difficile, secousses en terrain peu uni, difficulté de paquetage et de transport, etc. La roue unique de M. le Dr Scholze pare à ces inconvénients; elle facilite la tâche des porteurs en leur permettant d'aller beaucoup plus vite, avec moins de fatigue pour eux et moins de secousses pour le malade. On a reproché à la roue unique de donner au blessé la sensation du manque de stabilité; l'auteur pense que ce reproche s'adresse davantage à l'agencement défectueux de certains brancards roulants qu'au système en lui-même; il l'a du reste beaucoup perfectionné. Ajoutons que le brancard de M. le Dr Scholze ne nécessite que l'emploi de deux hommes au lieu de quatre, et qu'il leur permet d'effectuer le transport en une durée de temps qui, sur le terrain, s'est révélée de moitié moindre que par le transport à bras avec quatre porteurs.
Highly reduced Analogues of the Pyridine Nucleotide Coenzymes (1968)

Abstract Catalytic hydrogenation of the appropriate pyridine nucleotide coenzymes and their derivatives over palladium supported on barium carbonate in aqueous solution has yielded the following representatives of two novel series of coenzyme analogues: tetrahydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, tetrahydronicotinamide mononucleotide, 3-acetyltetrahydropyridine adenine dinucleotide, hexahydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, and hexahydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
I2-Catalyzed Oxidative Amidation of Benzylamines and Benzyl Cyanides under Mild Conditions (2017)

We report a novel and efficient method for the oxidation of benzylic carbons (amines and cyanides) into corresponding benzamides using a catalytic amount of I<sub>2</sub> and TBHP as the green oxidant via the C-H bond cleavage of the benzylic carbon under mild reaction conditions. According to the literature survey, this is the first report for the oxidative amidation of benzylamines and decyanation of benzyl cyanides in one pot under metal-free conditions.

New technologies for promoting a healthy diet and active living (2009)

Information and communication technologies (ICT) offer innovative formats for promoting healthy lifestyles and reinforcing public health initiatives. They can be applied to large population segments without losing the functionality of being tailored to individual fluctuating needs. Advantages of ICT include real-time provision and adaptation of nutrition and health recommendations based on an individual's particular situation, the potential to combine assessment procedures with healthy lifestyle support and the ability to unify psychosocial and cultural dimensions to enhance adherence. Two pilot programs are presented that show the potential for applying ICT to the promotion of healthy eating and physical activity habits.

Organic−Inorganic Hybrid Membrane:  Thermally Stable Cation-Exchange Membrane Prepared by the Sol−Gel Method (2004)

Organic−inorganic hybrid membranes based on poly(vinyl alcohol)−SiO2 were prepared under acidic and basic conditions, in which sulfonic acid groups were introduced at the inorganic segment. These membranes were extensively characterized for their morphology, intermolecular interactions, thermal and mechanical stability, and physicochemical properties using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and water uptake studies. Schematic models for acid-catalyzed linear weakly polymeric clusters and for base-catalyzed highly branched polymeric clusters were proposed. A higher ion-exchange capacity, permselectivity, and conductivity for the acid-catalyzed hybrid membranes than for the base-catalyzed membranes with the same composition indicated that the former route is suitable for the preparation of ion-exchange membranes. The electrochemical properties of the membrane and the equivalent pore radius were found to be highly dependent on Si content in the membrane phase. It was concluded that a definite compromise between the silica content and the membrane ion-exchange properties is required in order to have an organic−inorganic hybrid cation-exchange membrane. Furthermore, the physicochemical and electrochemical properties of these membranes were comparable to those of Nafion membrane, which suggests that they may be suitable for fuel cell and chlor-alkali applications as a substitute for Nafion membrane.
Enhanced Active Contour Method for Locating Text (2011)

Document analysis of images photographed by camera-equipped mobile phones is a growing challenge. These photos are often poor-quality compound images, composed of various objects and text, this makes automatic analysis complicated, thereby limiting the usefulness of the images. Existing image processing techniques do not manage to clearly decipher the text in such pictures. We developed a method for precisely locating text in complex scene images that can then be further processed by OCR systems. A text kernel operator roughly locates the text in an image. This information then serves as an initialization for the active contour method. This technique enhances the convergence process of the active contour and significantly speeds up the overall process. Moreover, our initialization settings enable systems to easily distinguish between the inside and outside parts of contours. Our experimental results show a significant improvement in the ability to locate and preprocess text.
Air Quality and Climate Impacts of Alternative Bus Technologies in Greater London (2014)

The environmental impact of diesel-fueled buses can potentially be reduced by the adoption of alternative propulsion technologies such as lean-burn compressed natural gas (LB-CNG) or hybrid electric buses (HEB), and emissions control strategies such as a continuously regenerating trap (CRT), exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), or selective catalytic reduction with trap (SCRT). This study assessed the environmental costs and benefits of these bus technologies in Greater London relative to the existing fleet and characterized emissions changes due to alternative technologies. We found a >30% increase in CO2 equivalent (CO2e) emissions for CNG buses, a <5% change for exhaust treatment scenarios, and a 13% (90% confidence interval 3.8-20.9%) reduction for HEB relative to baseline CO2e emissions. A multiscale regional chemistry-transport model quantified the impact of alternative bus technologies on air quality, which was then related to premature mortality risk. We found the largest decrease in population exposure (about 83%) to particulate matter (PM2.5) occurred with LB-CNG buses. Monetized environmental and investment costs relative to the baseline gave estimated net present cost of LB-CNG or HEB conversion to be $187 million ($73 million to $301 million) or $36 million ($-25 million to $102 million), respectively, while EGR or SCRT estimated net present costs were $19 million ($7 million to $32 million) or $15 million ($8 million to $23 million), respectively.
THE EXTRACTION OF TRANSISTOR MISMATCH CONVERTER AS A TEST STRUCTURE PARAMETERS : THE CMOS CURRENT-STEERING D/A (2000)

Since transistor mismatch directly affects the performances of a broad class of analog CMOS devices such as comparators, A/D and D/A converters, it is of the utmost importance to determine these parameters for every available CMOS technology. Nowadays, this is done by processing and evaluating a large number of especially designed test structures that have no further use. This paper presents a technique to extract the transistor mismatch parameters from the performance of a simple currentsteering CMOS D/A converter.

E-commerce: From shopping carts to credit cards (2011)

In the modern world, the concept of E-commerce has given the act of doing business a new direction and has evolved significantly than just being known as electronic payment on the Internet. E-commerce is growing at an exponential rate. There are several application areas in this category; like online banking activities, document automation in supply chain and logistics, teleconferencing, online office suites, shopping cart software, online shopping and order tracking. For example one is able to buy an airline ticket, movie ticket, household commodity, download music or a book just by giving a credit card number and click download button in a webpage. The user has a availability of worldwide markets and machines all the time, that are tireless unlike humans. Some of the major issues while enabling these services include privacy issues, data security and application technology. If security issues crop up among the users in such a situation, then it means that the services will be rendered redundant.
Manipulating Color Emission in 2D Hybrid Perovskites by Fine Tuning Halide Segregation: A Transparent Green Emitter (2021)

Halide perovskite materials offer an ideal playground for easily tuning their color and, accordingly, the spectral range of their emitted light. In contrast to common procedures, this work demonstrates that halide substitution in Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites not only progressively modulates the bandgap, but it can also be a powerful tool to control the nanoscale phase segregation-by adjusting the halide ratio and therefore the spatial distribution of recombination centers. As a result, thin films of chloride-rich perovskite are engineered-which appear transparent to the human eye-with controlled tunable emission in the green. This is due to a rational halide substitution with iodide or bromide leading to a spatial distribution of phases where the minor component is responsible for the tunable emission, as identified by combined hyperspectral photoluminescence imaging and elemental mapping. This work paves the way for the next generation of highly tunable transparent emissive materials, which can be used as light-emitting pixels in advanced and low-cost optoelectronics.
Electron microscopic study on amyloid fibril formation in human lymph nodes. (1986)

The purpose of this investigation was to clarify the mechanisms of amyloid fibril formation in human lymph nodes. In our present study, amyloid deposition was observed diffusely in all compartments of the lymph nodes. The deposition form showed extremely characteristic findings in its morphological features. Namely, amyloid deposits mainly consisted of clusters of round or oval nodules. Each amyloid nodule was frequently enclosed with long-stretched cytoplasmic processes of abutting reticulum cells and/or macrophages. Amyloid fibrils often formed parallel amyloid bundles radiating to outlying sections of the nodule from the center. The amyloid bundles closely adhered to the cytoplasmic membrane of not only the abutting reticulum cells, macrophages and sinus endothelium but also to the lymphocytes and plasma cells. In the central portion of the amyloid nodules, a concentric core was also observed. The most interesting finding was the intracellular formation of amyloid fibrils in all cells, such as macrophages, reticulum cells, foreign body giant cells and lymphocytes in the process of degeneration. Some fibrils localized in the limited area of the cytoplasm and others appeared in all parts of the cells, including the nucleus. Their cell membranes were missing in several areas and the cell organella had gradually dissolved. Finally the cell residuums were completely replaced by amyloid fibrils and transformed into a nodular structure with radiating bundles of amyloid fibrils.
Towards a Public Key Management Framework for Virtual Assets and Virtual Asset Service Providers (2019)

The recent FATF Recommendations defines virtual assets and virtual assets service providers (VASP), and requires under the Travel Rule that originating VASPs obtain and hold required and accurate originator information and required beneficiary information on virtual asset transfers. In this paper we discuss the notion of key ownership evidence as a core part of originator and beneficiary information required by the FATF Recommendation. We discuss approaches to securely communicate the originator and beneficiary information between VASPs, and review existing standards for public key certificates as applied to VASPs and virtual asset transfers. We propose the notion of a trust network of VASPs in which originator and beneficiary information, including key ownership information, can be exchanged securely while observing individual privacy requirements.
Numerical Analysis of Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flow with Rapid Transition (2002)

Accurate prediction of gas-liquid two-phase flow with rapid transition is of significant importance to design various industrial plants and to evaluate their safety. However, the one-dimensional two-fluid model that is often used for these purposes requires constitutive equations and most of them are based on the experimental data of two-phase flow in steady state. Thus, to confirm the applicability of the one-dimensional two-fluid model to the transient state, several two-phase parameters during rapid transition were measured and they were compared with the numerical solution of the one-dimensional two-fluid model. As a result, the agreement between the numerical solutions and the experimental data was not deteriorated during the transition. This would imply that the one-dimensional two-fluid model is applicable to the transient two-phase flow within the present experimental conditions.
The critical care data exchange format: a proposed flexible data standard for combining clinical and high-frequency physiologic data in critical care (2021)

<i>Objective.</i>To develop a standardized format for exchanging clinical and physiologic data generated in the intensive care unit. Our goal was to develop a format that would accommodate the data collection pipelines of various sites but would not require dataset-specific schemas or ad-hoc tools for decoding and analysis.<i>Approach.</i>A number of centers had independently developed solutions for storing clinical and physiologic data using Hierarchical Data Format-Version 5 (HDF5), a well-supported standard already in use in multiple other fields. These individual solutions involved design choices that made the data difficult to share despite the underlying common framework. A collaborative process was used to form the basis of a proposed standard that would allow for interoperability and data sharing with common analysis tools.<i>Main Results.</i>We developed the HDF5-based critical care data exchange format which stores multiparametric data in an efficient, self-describing, hierarchical structure and supports real-time streaming and compression. In addition to cardiorespiratory and laboratory data, the format can, in future, accommodate other large datasets such as imaging and genomics. We demonstated the feasibility of a standardized format by converting data from three sites as well as the MIMIC III dataset.<i>Significance.</i>Individual approaches to the storage of multiparametric clinical data are proliferating, representing both a duplication of effort and a missed opportunity for collaboration. Adoption of a standardized format for clinical data exchange will enable the development of a digital biobank, facilitate the external validation of machine learning models and be a powerful tool for sharing multiparametric, high frequency patient level data in multisite clinical trials. Our proposed solution focuses on supporting standardized ontologies such as LOINC allowing easy reading of data regardless of the source and in so doing provides a useful method to integrate large amounts of existing data.
Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress in the Retinal Pigment Epithelium Leads to Localized Retinal Degeneration (2014)

Conditional tissue-specific reduction in MnSOD induced oxidative stress in mouse RPE, leading to RPE dysfunction, damage to the choroid, and death of photoreceptor cells. The RPE oxidative stress did not cause drusen-like deposits, but the model recapitulated certain key aspects of the pathology of dry AMD and may be useful in testing therapies.
Surface Antimicrobial Activity of Heparin-Bonded and Antiseptic-Impregnated Vascular Catheters (1993)

Most Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheters have heparin bonded to the surface with benzalkonium chloride, a cationic surfactant, to reduce thrombosis. Since benzalkonium is bactericidal, the antimicrobial activity of heparin-bonded pulmonary artery catheters was investigated in an in vitro assay. Each catheter exhibited activity against a wide variety of potential microbial pathogens, including Candida albicans. The magnitude of activity against individual organisms correlated strongly with their in vitro susceptibility to benzalkonium chloride (r = .94, P < .002). A chlorhexidine-silver sulfadiazine-impregnated catheter exhibited even greater activity than the heparin-bonded catheters (P = .01). When exposed to serum for 24 h, heparin-bonded catheters lost > or = 50% of their antimicrobial activity, whereas the activity of the chlorhexidine-silver sulfadiazine-impregnated catheter was minimally affected. The fortuitous surface antimicrobial activity of heparin-bonded catheters may account for the low incidence of catheter-related bacteremia (mean, 1.0%) compared with Swan-Ganz catheters of the same materials but not coated with benzalkonium-heparin (mean, 2.8%).
