PTU-283 Usefulness of short-term post-operative lft monitoring after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (2015)

<h3>Introduction</h3> This study examines the usefulness of postoperative LFT monitoring in diagnosing incomplete clearance of bile ducts after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) performed during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). <h3>Method</h3> Data on all patients who had LCBDE over a period of three years were collected retrospectively. Patients who had unsuccessful LCBDE were considered for the test group and remaining patients were considered for the control group. Pre-operative, 12–24 h post-operative and 24–48 h post-operative alkaline phosphotase (ALP), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), alanine transaminase (ALT) and bilirubin levels were recorded. <h3>Results</h3> 20 patients in the test group and 52 patients in the control group were identified. 12–24 h postoperative blood tests compared to pre-operative blood tests revealed worsening or no improvements of LFTs in 10 of 10 in test group and 19 of 52 in control group (p = 0.30). After excluding patients who had intervention within 24 h, 24–48 h postoperative blood tests compared to 12–24 h postoperative blood tests revealed worsening or no improvements of LFTs in 7 of 16 in test group and 11 of 37 in control group (p = 0.322). 10 patients with a normal final intra-operative cholangiogram free of filling defects needed re-intervention due to retained choledocholithiasis subsequently. 6 of these 10 patients (60%) were discharged home on second post-operative day after observing improved LFTs but re-admitted for subsequent intervention. <h3>Conclusion</h3> There is NO difference in post-operative LFT patterns between patients who had successful LCBDE and unsuccessful LCBDE. Therefore post-operative LFT monitoring is not reliable. <h3>Disclosure of interest</h3> None Declared.
SiGe Process Integrated On-Chip Dipole Antenna on Finite-Size Ground Plane (2013)

This letter investigates the effect of a finite-size ground plane on the radiation pattern and reflection coefficient of a SiGe process integrated on-chip antenna. A flat 77-GHz on-chip strip dipole antenna integrated with a lumped LC balun circuit is designed and implemented. For increased directivity, the etched silicon substrate is placed on a metal ground plate. The on-chip antenna with the LC balun circuit is connected to GSG pads for measurement purposes. The antenna is well matched at the original resonance frequency band with 7-12 GHz impedance bandwidth and 4 dBi measured gain at 85 GHz.
Reply on RC1 (2022)

Previous research on atmospheric chemistry in the forest environment has shown that the total reactivity by biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emission is not well considered in for-est chemistry models. One possible explanation for this discrepancy is the unawareness and ne-glect of reactive biogenic emission that have eluded common monitoring methods. This ques-tion motivated the development of a total ozone reactivity monitor (TORM) for the direct de-termination of the reactivity of foliage emissions. Emissions samples drawn from a vegetation branch enclosure experiment are mixed with a known and controlled amount of ozone (e.g. re-sulting in 100 ppb of ozone) and directed through a temperature-controlled glass flow reactor to allow reactive biogenic emissions to react with ozone during the approximately 2-minute residence time in the reactor. The ozone reactivity is determined from the difference in the ozone mole fraction before and after the reaction vessel. An inherent challenge of the experi-ment is the influence of changing water vapor in the sample air on the ozone signal. A com-mercial UV absorption ozone monitor was modified to directly determine the ozone differential with one instrument and sample air was drawn through Nafion dryer membrane tubing. These two modifications significantly reduced errors associated with the determination of the reacted ozone compared to determining the difference from two individual measurements and errors from interferences from water vapor, resulting in a much improved and sensitive determina-tion of the ozone reactivity. This paper provides a detailed description of the measurement de-sign, the instrument apparatus, and its characterization. Examples and results from field de-ployments demonstrate the applicability and usefulness of the TORM.
Design of Controls to Attenuate Loads in the Controls Advanced Research Turbine (2004)

The wind industry seeks to design wind turbines to maximize energy production and increase fatigue life. To achieve this goal, we must design wind turbines to extract maximum energy and reduce component and system loads. This paper applies modern state-space control design methods to a two-bladed teetering-hub upwind machine located at the National Wind Technology Center. The design objective is to regulate turbine speed in region 3 (above rated wind speed) and enhance damping in several low-damped flexible modes of the turbine. The controls approach is based on the Disturbance Accommodating Control method and provides accountability for wind-speed disturbances. First, controls are designed with the single control input rotor collective pitch to stabilize the first drive-train torsion as well as the tower first fore-aft bending modes. Generator torque is then incorporated as an additional control input. This reduces some of the demand placed on the rotor collective pitch control system and enhances first drive train torsion mode damping. Individual blade pitch control is then used to attenuate wind disturbances having spatial variation over the rotor and effectively reduces blade flap deflections caused by wind shear.

Recall and Reconsolidation of Contextual Fear Memory: Differential Control by ERK and Zif268 Expression Dosage (2013)

Compelling evidence points to the existence of independent cellular processes involved in the consolidation and reconsolidation of memory. For instance, a double dissociation has been reported between hippocampal Extracellular-Regulated Kinase-1/2 (ERK1/2) activity being necessary for contextual fear conditioning (CFC) consolidation but not reconsolidation. Conversely, hippocampal expression of the immediate early gene Zif268 is necessary for CFC reconsolidation but not consolidation. Since we previously reported that ERK1/2 controls the transcription of Zif268 in the hippocampus, we examined the precise role of ERK1/2 activity and Zif268 gene expression dosage in CFC memory processing. For this, we first assessed performance of Zif268 homozygous and heterozygous mutant mice in a CFC paradigm. Whereas Zif268-/- mice displayed a deficit of both consolidation and reconsolidation, Zif268+/- mice displayed a selective deficit of reconsolidation only, therefore pointing to the relationship between Zif268 gene expression dosage and CFC memory processing. Zif268 gene expression dosage interfered with the reconsolidation process if and only if CFC memory was relatively recently encoded and directly reactivated. Furthermore, CFC memory strengthening previously reported to involve Zif268 expression in the hippocampus was spared in Zif268+/- mice. Finally, blocking ERK1/2 activity prior to CFC retrieval prevented the deficit of reconsolidation observed in Zif268+/- mice. Collectively, these results highlight a tight relationship between Zif268 gene expression dosage and CFC memory processing. They also suggest that ERK1/2 activity upon CFC memory recall is necessary for its retrieval, a prerequisite for its reactivation and subsequent reconsolidation.
Substrates, Inhibitors and Activators of P-glycoprotein: Candidates for Radiolabeling and Imaging Perspectives (2010)

In recent years, several PET tracers for monitoring the activity and expression of P-gp at the BBB have been tested. P-gp substrates such as [(11)C]verapamil and [(11)C]loperamide can be employed to visualize P-gp activity, but they display a moderate baseline uptake in the brain and formation of radiolabeled metabolites which hamper the interpretation of PET data. P-gp inhibitors such as [(11)C]elacridar, [(11)C]laniquidar and [(11)C]tariquidar have been tested to investigate P-gp expression and the results need further investigation. Recently, we developed MC18, MC266 and MC80, that have been characterized as an inhibitor, substrate and inducer of P-gp both by in vitro assays and in the everted gut sac method. These compounds have been radiolabelled with (11)C and been evaluated in vivo. In the present review, we compare the outcome of biological in vitro assays and the corresponding in vivo PET data for the P-gp inhibitors [(11)C]MC18 and [(11)C]elacridar, the P-gp substrates [(11)C]MC266 and [(11)C]verapamil, the P-gp inducer [(11)C]MC80 and the P-gp modulator cyclosporin A. Since a satisfactory overlap was found comparing in vivo results and the corresponding in vitro findings, the proposed biological in vitro assays could be predictive for the in vivo PET data of novel radiotracers. PET tracers could be employed for various purposes: radiolabeled P-gp inhibitors to monitor decreased expression of P-gp at the BBB in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease; and radiolabeled P-gp substrates with a high baseline uptake to monitor increased expression of P-gp in epileptic foci.
Probing ground state in circular magnetic dots: Single vs. double magnetic vortex (2010)

We investigate static magnetization as a function of a magnetic field during nucleation of the magnetic vortex state in Py dots with diameter of 1000 nm and with four different thicknesses varying between 15 and 50 nm. For the 50 nm thick Py dots we observe direct nucleation of the single vortex state from the saturated state, while the dots with thickness equal or below 25 nm reveal formation of intermediate metastable double vortex state before entering into the single vortex ground state at small negative fields. This scenario is confirmed by micromagnetic simulations and variable field magnetic force microscopy imaging. Our simulations investigate stability of the double vortex metastable state as a function of temperature and external microwave pulses. Magnetic force microscopy was found to be a invasive imaging technique to study this kind of samples. For 20 nm thick Py dots only the single vortex state is observed with commercial tips, meanwhile home made tips with lower magnetic moment were found to destroy the double vortex state during imaging process.

Kainate Receptor Activation Induces Mixed Lineage Kinase-mediated Cellular Signaling Cascades via Post-synaptic Density Protein 95 (2001)

Kainate receptor glutamate receptor 6 (GluR6) subunit-deficient and c-Jun N-terminal kinase 3 (JNK3)-null mice share similar phenotypes including resistance to kainite-induced epileptic seizures and neuronal toxicity (Yang, D. D., Kuan, C-Y., Whitmarsh, A. J., Rincon, M., Zheng, T. S., Davis, R. J., Rakis, P., and Flavell, R. (1997) Nature 389, 865-869; Mulle, C., Seiler, A., Perez-Otano, I., Dickinson-Anson, H., Castillo, P. E., Bureau, I., Maron, C., Gage, F. H., Mann, J. R., Bettler, B., and Heinemmann, S. F. (1998) Nature 392, 601-605). This suggests that JNK activation may be involved in GluR6-mediated excitotoxicity. We provide evidence that post-synaptic density protein (PSD-95) links GluR6 to JNK activation by anchoring mixed lineage kinase (MLK) 2 or MLK3, upstream activators of JNKs, to the receptor complex. Association of MLK2 and MLK3 with PSD-95 in HN33 cells and rat brain preparations is dependent upon the SH3 domain of PSD-95, and expression of GluR6 in HN33 cells activated JNKs and induced neuronal apoptosis. Deletion of the PSD-95-binding site of GluR6 reduced both JNK activation and neuronal toxicity. Co-expression of dominant negative MLK2, MLK3, or mitogen-activated kinase kinase (MKK) 4 and MKK7 also significantly attenuated JNK activation and neuronal toxicity mediated by GluR6, and co-expression of PSD-95 with a deficient Src homology 3 domain also inhibited GluR6-induced JNK activation and neuronal toxicity. Our results suggest that PSD-95 plays a critical role in GluR6-mediated JNK activation and excitotoxicity by anchoring MLK to the receptor complex.
SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF NOVEL AROMATIC POLYAMIDES HAVING PENDANTN,N′-DIPHENYL IMIDE GROUPS (2001)

Abstract We have investigated a novel monomer having two pendant phenyl imido groups for preparing new aromatic polyamides. Novel polyamides were synthesized by direct polycondensation reaction with the N,N′-diphenyl-2,3,5,6-diimido benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid chloride (PIBAC) and some aromatic diamines such as p-phenylene diamine, 4,4′-oxydianiline and 4,4′-methylene dianiline. Inherent viscosity of the resulting polyamides are in the range 0.20–0.85 dl/g range. The decomposition temperature of these polyamides are ranged from 350–450°C and the ash contents of them orders MDA > ODA > SDA according to the kinds of the diamines used. In addition, the solubility of these polyamides is very good in aprotic solvents such as DMAc,NMP, and DMF. A transparent flexible and tough film was cast.

Molecular and functional characterization of a Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor in the filamentous fungus Tuber borchii (2008)

T. borchii expresses a functional RhoGDI homolog that appears as an important modulator of cytoskeleton reorganization during polarized apical growth that antecedes symbiosis instauration. The specificity of TbRhoGDI actions was underscored by its inability to elicit a growth defect in S. cerevisiae or to compensate the loss of a D. discoideum RhoGDI. Knowledge of the cell signaling at the basis of cytoskeleton reorganization of ectomycorrhizal fungi is essential for improvements in the production of mycorrhized plant seedlings used in timberland extension programs and fruit body production.
Multi-feature sparse-based defect detection and classification in semiconductor units (2016)

Automated inspection systems have been used extensively for high-speed defect detection, gaging and quality control. In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, assembly and testing processes are getting more complex resulting in a greater tendency of defects to impact the production process. Currently available defect detection and classification systems are customized and hard-wired to the detection of particular classes of defects and cannot deal with new unknown classes. Shortage of defective units, similarities within different classes of defects, wide variations within the same defect class, and data imbalance are the basic challenges for this problem. This paper presents a novel stacking-based multi-feature, sparse-based defect detection and classification method that is robust to data imbalance and low number of training samples. Experimental results on real-world data from Intel show that the proposed approach results in a high classification accuracy as compared to existing methods.
Optical twists in phase and amplitude (2011)

Light beams with helical phase profile correspond to photons having orbital angular momentum (OAM). A Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam is an example where its helical phase sets a phase-singularity at the optical axis and forms a ring-shaped transverse amplitude profile. Here, we describe a unique beam where both phase and amplitude express a helical profile as the beam propagates in free space. Such a beam can be accurately referred to as an optical twister. We characterize optical twisters and demonstrate their capacity to induce spiral motion on particles trapped along the twisters' path. Unlike LG beams, the far field projection of the twisted optical beam maintains a high photon concentration even at higher values of topological charge. Optical twisters have therefore profound applications to fundamental studies of light and atoms such as in quantum entanglement of the OAM, toroidal traps for cold atoms and for optical manipulation of microscopic particles.
<title>Derivative constraints for high-resolution direction finding with correlated interferers</title> (1996)

High resolution direction finding techniques, such as MUSIC, generally do not perform well in the presence of correlated signals. In some situations, the direction of one (or more) of the correlated signals is known (such as when a `friendly' known signal is being jammed by an unknown signal). In this case, constraints can be included to block the direction of the known signal(s). Since the known direction usually have some uncertainty, additional constraints are necessary in order to block the known signals and hence decorrelate the unknown signal. This paper examines the use of derivation constraints to achieve signal decorrelation when the directions of `friendly' signals are known only approximately. This same concept of derivative constraints is also applied to the wideband signal case after using spatial resampling to focusing the correlation matrix. A cubic spline based resampling technique is proposed rather than the conventional sinc function resampling in order to achieve adequate resolution in the uncorrelated case before applying derivative constraints for correlated signals.

Generation, Characterization and Epitope Mapping of Two Neutralizing and Protective Human Recombinant Antibodies against Influenza A H5N1 Viruses (2009)

Importantly, localization of the epitopes recognized by these two neutralizing and protective antibodies has provided, for the first time, insight into the human antibody responses to H5N1 viruses which contribute to the H5 immunity in the recovered patient. These results highlight the potential of a rhAbs treatment strategy for human H5N1 virus infection and provide new insight for the development of effective H5N1 pandemic vaccines.
Scaling relation of domain competition on（2＋1）-dimensional ballistic deposition model with surface diffusion (2016)

During heteroepitaxial overlayer growth multiple crystal domains nucleated on a substrate surface compete with each other in such a manner that a domain covered by neighboring ones stops growing.The number density of active domains ρ decreases as the height h increases.A simple scaling argument leads to a scaling law of ρ h-γ with a coarsening exponent γ=d/z,where d is the dimension of the substrate surface and z the dynamic exponent of a growth front.This scaling relation is confirmed by performing kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of the ballistic deposition model on a two-dimensional（d=2） surface,even when an isolated deposited particle diffuses on a crystal surface.
