The soft genome (2014)

Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) nematodes transmit small RNAs across generations, a process that enables transgenerational regulation of genes. In contrast to changes to the DNA sequence, transgenerational transmission of small RNA-mediated responses is reversible, and thus enables "soft" or "flexible" inheritance of acquired characteristics. Until very recently only introduction of foreign genetic material (viruses, transposons, transgenes) was shown to directly lead to inheritance of small RNAs. New discoveries however, demonstrate that starvation also triggers inheritance of endogenous small RNAs in C.elegans. Multiple generations of worms inherit starvation-responsive endogenous small RNAs, and starvation also results in heritable extension of the progeny's lifespan. In this Commentary paper we explore the intriguing possibility that large parts of the genome and many additional traits are similarly subjected to heritable small RNA-mediated regulation, and focus on the potential influence of transgenerational RNAi on the worm's physiology. While the universal relevance of this mechanism remains to be discovered, we will examine how the discoveries made in worms already challenge long held dogmas in genetics and evolution.
[Combined application of balneotherapy to the medical rehabilitation of patients with seronegative spondyloarthrites]. (2009)

A rehabilitative complex combining radon baths and ultra-high frequency electromagnetic fields exerted a well-apparent beneficial effect on the clinical picture of articular and vertebral syndromes and greatly contributed to the correction of disturbances in the immune system of patients with seronegative spondyloarthritis. At the same time, combination of radon baths with low-frequency ultrasound treatment and hydrocortisone ultraphonophoresis reduced clinical activity of the disease, improved the patients' immune status, and had more prominent general anti-inflammatory action than the same physical factors applied as monotherapy.

Electronic Commerce, popularly known as eCommerce plays am important role in world business. However, the security of eCommerce is very difficult and gives sufferings to the vendors, architects and also users. Therefore, lots of security models are proposed and operated at present time. SecureID by RSA is one of them that uses security token. The steady progress of code breaking threats SecureID system too. The recent phenomenon of secure use of cell phone for remote commerce called mCommerce makes revolutionary progress in remote business. But the potential threat to mCommerce also exists. Therefore, Independent Channel Multi Method Multi-Factor Authentication model is proposed for rapid translatable secure electronic and mobile commerce called emCommerce.
DUV inspection beyond optical resolution limit for EUV mask of hp 1X nm (2017)

It is generally said that conventional deep ultraviolet inspection tools have difficulty meeting the defect requirement for extreme ultraviolet masks of hp 1X nm. In previous studies, it has been shown that the newly developed optics and systems using deep ultraviolet, named Super Inspection Resolution Improvement method for UnreSolved pattern (SIRIUS), has high sensitivity for nanoimprint lithography templates with unresolved patterns which are the same scale as the wafer. In this paper, the capability of SIRIUS for the extreme ultraviolet mask of hp 1X nm lines and spaces pattern has been studied by evaluating the signal to noise ratio of inspection images and capture rates with 5 runs to the target defects which cause over 10% printed wafer critical dimension errors calculated by simulation. It was demonstrated that the signal to noise ratio was increased and the all target defects became detectable with the throughput of 120 min per 100 × 100 mm<sup>2</sup> . Additionally, the printability of natural defects detected with SIRIUS was analyzed. It was confirmed that SIRIUS was able to detect natural defects under 10% of wafer critical dimension. In conclusion, we confirm that SIRIUS can be available for the extreme ultraviolet mask inspection of hp 1X nm lines and spaces pattern.
A Study on Optimal Control of Rolling Stock for Precise Position Stop under Fixed Block Systems (2013)

It is important to stop the rolling stock at a precise position in case of unmanned operation and automated operation system. It is also necessary especially for the PSD (Platform Screen Door) installed stations. The precise stop consists of two parts; setting the brake timing and controlling the speed based on the pre-set brake point. In order to stop the rolling stock at a precise position, the optimum control of the proper breaking power and acceleration be necessary. This paper is on the train system modeling and the PID control method for the realization of precise stop of rolling stock.
Physiotherapy Exercise Classification with Single-Camera Pose Detection and Machine Learning (2022)

Access to healthcare, including physiotherapy, is increasingly occurring through virtual formats. At-home adherence to physical therapy programs is often poor and few tools exist to objectively measure participation. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the potential for performing automatic, unsupervised video-based monitoring of at-home low-back and shoulder physiotherapy exercises using a mobile phone camera. Joint locations were extracted from the videos of healthy subjects performing low-back and shoulder physiotherapy exercises using an open source pose detection framework. A convolutional neural network was trained to classify physiotherapy exercises based on the segments of keypoint time series data. The model's performance as a function of input keypoint combinations was studied in addition to its robustness to variation in the camera angle. The CNN model achieved optimal performance using a total of 12 pose estimation landmarks from the upper and lower body (low-back exercise classification: 0.995 ± 0.009; shoulder exercise classification: 0.963 ± 0.020). Training the CNN on a variety of angles was found to be effective in making the model robust to variations in video filming angle. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using a smartphone camera and a supervised machine learning model to effectively classify at-home physiotherapy participation and could provide a low-cost, scalable method for tracking adherence to physical therapy exercise programs in a variety of settings.
A system for recording and reproducing television signals (1954)

A system for recording and reproducing television signals by means of magnetic tape has been developed. This system will accommodate both monochrome and color pictures. For monochrome pictures, two channels are used, one for the video signal and one for the sound signal. These signals are recorded as two tracks on 1/4-inch magnetic tape. For color pictures, five channels are used: video channels for the color signals red, green and blue, the synchronizing channel, and an audio channel. These signals are recorded as five tracks on 1/2-inch magnetic tape. An electronic servomechanism provides the speed constancy required for the reproduction of television signals from magnetic tape. The present tape speed is 30 feet per second. The recorded and reproduced frequency band is over 3 megacycles. There is a description of a demonstration which included side-by-side showing of a direct picture, and the same picture recorded and immediately played back.
A Study of Sports Crowd Behavior: The Case of the Great Pumpkin Incident (1989)

Disagreement on which theory of collective behavior best predicts or explains how crowd processes work prompted this case study. By closely examining, through participant observation, the unfolding of one episode of nonviolent collective behavior at a professional football game, four frequently applied theories of collective behavior are tested for their utility in sports crowd situations. Each theory is assessed for strengths and weaknesses. Findings show contagion theory, convergence theory, emergent norm theory, and value-added theory all valuable in explaining some facets of observed spectator behavior; therefore a synthesis of theories might prove more useful than applying theories separately. A methodological problem emerged during evaluation, concerning difficulty in distinguishing among the indicators for each theory. Several overlapping theoretical concepts confounded attempts to operationalize unique empirical measures and hence, to compare the theories satisfactorily. Further research is needed to provide adequate measures.
Design and SAR of Novel Potassium Channel Openers Targeted for Urge Urinary Incontinence. 1. N-Cyanoguanidine Bioisosteres Possessing in Vivo Bladder Selectivity (2000)

A structurally novel series of adenosine 5'-triphosphate-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel openers is described. As part of our efforts directed toward identifying novel, bladder-selective potassium channel openers (KCOs) targeted for urge urinary incontinence (UUI), we found that bioisosteric replacement of the N-cyanoguanidine moiety of pinacidil (1, Figure 1) with a diaminocyclobutenedione template afforded squaric acid analogue 2, the prototype of a novel series of K(ATP) channel openers with unique selectivity for bladder smooth muscle in vivo. Further modification of the heterocyclic ring to give substituted aryl derivatives (3) afforded potent KCOs that possessed the desired detrusor selectivity when administered orally. The effects of these potassium channel agonists on bladder contractile function was studied in vitro using isolated rat detrusor strips. Potent relaxants were evaluated in vivo in a rat model of bladder instability. Lead compounds were evaluated concomitantly in normotensive rats for their effects on mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and heart rate as a measure of in vivo bladder selectivity. (R)-4-[3,4-Dioxo-2-(1,2, 2-trimethyl-propylamino)-cyclobut-1-enylamino]-3-ethyl-benzo nitrile (79) met our potency and selectivity criteria and represents an attractive development candidate for the treatment of UUI. Electrophysiological studies using isolated rat bladder detrusor myocytes have demonstrated that compound 79 produces significant hyperpolarization which is glyburide-reversed, thus consistent with the activation of K(ATP). The design, synthesis, structure-activity relationships (SAR), and pharmacological activity associated with this series of novel KCOs will be discussed.
Intracranial dermoid cyst rupture with midbrain and thalamic infarction (2009)

Intracranial dermoid cyst rupture with midbrain and thalamic infarction A 39-year-old man developed dizziness and diplopia. Examination showed medial gaze palsy of the right eye. He had no headache, vertical gaze palsy, or skew deviation. A CSF examination was not performed. MRI (figure) showed cystic mass and acute infarction. After 7 days heparization, the mass was removed by surgery and pathology confirmed the dermoid cyst. After operation, the neurologic abnormality disappeared. Epidermoid cyst, arachnoid cyst, and cystic craniopharyngioma are differential diagnoses. Although intracranial dermoid cysts are rare benign tumors, 1 surgery is the only treatment and rupture of a cyst can lead to cerebral vasospasm or vasculitis.
Electron cooling in diffusive normal metal–superconductor tunnel junctions with a spin-valve ferromagnetic interlayer (2012)

We investigate heat and charge transport through a diffusive SIF${}_{1}$F${}_{2}$N tunnel junction, where N (S) is a normal (superconducting) electrode, I is an insulator layer, and F${}_{1,2}$ are two ferromagnets with arbitrary direction of magnetization. The flow of an electric current in such structures at subgap bias is accompanied by a heat transfer from the normal metal into the superconductor, which enables refrigeration of electrons in the normal metal. We demonstrate that the refrigeration efficiency depends on the strength of the ferromagnetic exchange field $h$ and the angle $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ between the magnetizations of the two F layers. As expected, for values of $h$ much larger than the superconducting order parameter $\ensuremath{\Delta}$, the proximity effect is suppressed and the efficiency of refrigeration increases with respect to a NIS junction. However, for $h\ensuremath{\sim}\ensuremath{\Delta}$ the cooling power (i.e., the heat flow out of the normal metal reservoir) has a nonmonotonic behavior as a function of $h$ showing a minimum at $h\ensuremath{\approx}\ensuremath{\Delta}$. We also determine the dependence of the cooling power on the lengths of the ferromagnetic layers, the bias voltage, the temperature, the transmission of the tunneling barrier, and the magnetization misalignment angle $\ensuremath{\alpha}$.
Anticoagulation with direct thrombin inhibitors during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (2019)

Use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to support patients with critical cardiorespiratory illness is increasing. Systemic anticoagulation is an essential element in the care of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients. While unfractionated heparin is the most commonly used agent, unfractionated heparin is associated with several unique complications that can be catastrophic in critically ill patients, including heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and acquired antithrombin deficiency. These complications can result in thrombotic events and subtherapeutic anticoagulation. Direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) are emerging as alternative anticoagulants in patients supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Increasing evidence supports DTIs use as safe and effective in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients with and without heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. This review outlines the pharmacology, dosing strategies and available protocols, monitoring parameters, and special use considerations for all available DTIs in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients. The advantages and disadvantages of DTIs in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation relative to unfractionated heparin will be described.
Human Factor XIII from Plasma and Platelets (1973)

The subunit structures of Factor XIII from plasma and platelets have been examined by sedimentation equilibrium in the ultracentrifuge. Plasma Factor XIII has a molecular weight of 320,000 ± 20,000 in dilute salt solution at neutral pH. The two different types of subunits of the plasma factor, the a and b chains, have molecular weights of about 75,000 and 88,000, respectively. Platelet Factor XIII has a molecular weight of 146,000 ± 10,000, whereas its single type of subunit, the a chain, has a molecular weight of about 75,000. The a chains of the platelet and plasma factors are identical not only in molecular weight but also on gel electrophoresis in three different systems and in amino acid composition. The a chain of platelet Factor XIII combines with the b chain of plasma factor to give a protein which is electrophoretically indistinguishable from native plasma Factor XIII. In addition, the amino acid composition of the plasma factor is essentially identical with twice the average amino acid composition of the a and b chains. These analyses indicate that the subunit structure of plasma factor is a2b2 and that of the platelet factor is a2. The subunits of each factor are combined in the native molecules solely by noncovalent bonds. Thrombin, trypsin, reptilase, papain, and an enzyme contaminating some ancrod preparations activate plasma Factor XIII. In each case, except possibly with papain, Factor XIII activation coincides with a decrease in molecular weight of 4,000 of the a chain. High concentrations of thrombin only slightly inactivate Factor XIII after prolonged incubation, whereas trypsin not only activates but extensively inactivates plasma Factor XIII. Activation of Factor XIII is not autocatalyt c. Neither release of the fibrinopeptides nor gelation is required for activated plasma Factor XIII to cross-link fibrinogen. The γ chains of fibrin are cross-linked by activated plasma Factor XIII more rapidly than the α chains, but the rates of cross-linking of the α (A) and γ chains of fibrinogen are about the same. In addition, the pattern of cross-linking of fibrinogen or fibrin by guinea pig liver transglutaminase is different from that catalyzed by activated Factor XIII. The lysis time of fibrin clots with cross-linked α and γ chains was considerably greater than that of fibrin clots containing cross-linked γ chains but little or no cross-linked α chains.
M arxism (2016)

Abstract Marxism is an Enlightenment political philosophy, historical method, and critical paradigm that has influenced communication theory since World War II. It interrogates the inherently exploitative character of labor in capitalism, affirms a vision of history driven by struggle from below, and connects the production and communication of ideas to the dominant influences of a ruling class. Its major contributions in communication theory have been to critical theory, cultural studies, ideology critique, and political economy of the media.
Antiplatelet Drug Response Status Does Not Predict Recurrent Ischemic Events in Stable Cardiovascular Patients (2012)

Background— The biological response to antiplatelet drugs has repeatedly been shown to predict the recurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). However, most studies involved coronary artery disease patients with recent vessel injury shortly after the initiation of antiplatelet therapy. Data on stable cardiovascular patients are scarce, and the added predictive value of specific assays (the vasodilator phosphoprotein assay for the clopidogrel response and serum thromboxane B2 for the aspirin response) and aggregation-based assays relative to common predictors has rarely been addressed. Methods and Results— Stable cardiovascular outpatients participating in the Antiplatelet Drug Resistances and Ischemic Events (ADRIE) study (n=771) were tested twice, at 2 separate visits, with specific and aggregation-based assays. Follow-up lasted 3 years, and &lt;1% of patients were lost to follow-up. MACEs were adjudicated by an independent committee. Multivariate survival analyses included relevant variables identified in univariate analysis and platelet function test results. The C-index was used to express the prognostic value of various multivariate models. MACEs, the primary end point, occurred in 16% of patients. Hypertension, smoking, older age, and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were predictive of MACE recurrence, with a C-index of 0.63 ( P &lt;0.001). Neither the specific nor the aggregation-based assays added significant predictive value for the primary end point. Conclusions— Biological antiplatelet drug responsiveness, measured with specific or aggregation-based assays, has no incremental predictive value over common cardiovascular risk factors for MACE recurrence in stable cardiovascular outpatients. These results do not support platelet function testing for MACE risk evaluation in stable cardiovascular patients. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov .

Metal induced lateral crystallization poly-Si thin film transistors of self-released nickel source (2008)

Nickel-silicon alloy target is used as a source of sputtering; a new type of nickel source, called a self-released nickel source, is fabricated. Self-released nickel source can control the crystallization rate efficiently and the obtained poly-Si material has a low level of nickel residue and high quality, p-type thin film transistors are fabricated using this kind of poly-Si as active islands. They have good performance and lower leakage current.
<italic>Cupid</italic>: Cluster-Based Exploration of Geometry Generators with Parallel Coordinates and Radial Trees (2014)

Geometry generators are commonly used in video games and evaluation systems for computer vision to create geometric shapes such as terrains, vegetation or airplanes. The parameters of the generator are often sampled automatically which can lead to many similar or unwanted geometric shapes. In this paper, we propose a novel visual exploration approach that combines the abstract parameter space of the geometry generator with the resulting 3D shapes in a composite visualization. Similar geometric shapes are first grouped using hierarchical clustering and then nested within an illustrative parallel coordinates visualization. This helps the user to study the sensitivity of the generator with respect to its parameter space and to identify invalid parameter settings. Starting from a compact overview representation, the user can iteratively drill-down into local shape differences by clicking on the respective clusters. Additionally, a linked radial tree gives an overview of the cluster hierarchy and enables the user to manually split or merge clusters. We evaluate our approach by exploring the parameter space of a cup generator and provide feedback from domain experts.
Comparison of Early (2 Days) and Later (28 Days) Response of Adipose Tissue to Very Low-Calorie Diet in Obese Women (2016)

The early and later phases of a VLCD differ with respect to metabolic and inflammatory responses in SAAT. The expression changes in SAAT in the early phase of the VLCD could not explain the effect of short calorie restriction on the improvement of insulin sensitivity. An interplay of SAAT with liver function during VLCD mediated by FGF21 might be suggested.
