Effect of 7,12-Dimethylbenz[ ] anthracene and Splenectomy on Virus Titer and Blood Picture in Friend Virus Leukemia (1970)

In Friend virus leukemia, 7,12-dimethylbenz[a] anthracene (DMBA) delays the neoplastic transformation of the reticulum cells in the spleen, as shown by histologic examination, and decrease in virus titer, and suppresses their maturation to erythroblastic cells as shown by histologic examination and absence of erythroblasts in the peripheral blood. DMBA also lowers the elevated white blood cell count. Splenectomy alone prolongs the survival time in Friend virus leukemia, but it produces a rapidly fatal profound anemia when combined with DMBA, probably because of damage to the bone marrow.
Toward proximity-aware internetworking (2010)

Aura-net is a mobile communications system whose function realizes a new form of proximityaware networking, and whose form points in the direction of a "Proximity-aware Internetwork." The system is founded on an implementation of a "wireless sense." The existence of such a sense, it is argued, is essential for realization of a vision of Ubiquitous Computing famously expounded by Mark Weiser [1]. Moreover, current wireless technologies are ill-suited to enabling this vision. The proposed wireless technology (FlashLinQ) is described at a conceptual and tutorial level.
5.5 Dual-Tap Pipelined-Code-Memory Coded-Exposure-Pixel CMOS Image Sensor for Multi-Exposure Single-Frame Computational Imaging (2019)

Modern computational photography applications such as 3D sensing, gesture analysis, and robotic navigation drive the growing need for programmability, or coding, of the camera exposure at the individual-pixel level. Unlike conventional cameras, which record all light incident onto a pixel, the emerging class of coded-exposure-pixel (CEP) cameras can be programmed to selectively detect only some of that light [1] or, better, sort all of the light [2, 3], depending on the pixel code. In conjunction with a concurrently coded illumination, this enables a wide range of new coded multi-exposure single-readout-frame imaging capabilities at video rates. This work demonstrates such an image sensor where multiple pixel-wise-coded exposures, or subframes, are accumulated during one video frame.

An Accurate Model by Using the Legendre Polynomial Functions of a Dual Stator Induction Machine Dedicated to the Static Eccentricity Diagnosis (2007)

The induction machine takes a preponderant place in many industrial applications due to its low cost and to its robustness. Nowadays, there are several standard schemes for the control of that kind of machine. In order to release a power segmentation and to increase the reliability, many engineers suggest to use multi-phase supplies. Furthermore, they advocate the dual stator winding induction machine (DSWIM), in which the two three phase stator winding systems are shifted by any angle. The main purpose of our investigation is to propose two models of the DSWIM under static eccentricity by using two shapes of the air- gap function and their associated permeance functions. The first method uses a classical form of the air-gap function. The second one gives a novel expression of the air-gap function involving a Legendre polynomial development that is obtained thanks to a geometrical study of the permeance function. Simulated and experimental set-up will prove the effectiveness of both models by choosing the Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) as the diagnosis tool.
Diet transiently improves migraine in two twin sisters: possible role of ketogenesis? (2014)

The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet long used to treat refractory epilepsy; ketogenesis (ketone body formation) is a physiological phenomenon also observed in patients following lowcarbohydrate, low-calorie diets prescribed for rapid weight loss. We report the case of a pair of twin sisters, whose high-frequency migraine improved during a ketogenic diet they followed in order to lose weight. The observed time-lock between ketogenesis and migraine improvement provides some insight into how ketones act to improve migraine.
Effect of NaCl-induced osmotic stress on intracellular concentrations of glycine betaine and potassium in Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, and staphylococci. (1991)

Staphylococci are more salt tolerant than are enterococci or Escherichia coli. They have a more rigid cell wall and higher internal turgor pressure. The mechanisms of NaCl-induced osmotic tolerance among these bacteria were examined by determining the generation of osmoprotective activity of cellular extracts and intracellular concentrations of glycine betaine and potassium (K+) in response to graded amounts of NaCl. Staphylococci as well as E. coli were shown to require choline or glycine betaine to achieve maximal salt tolerance. In response to 0.9 mol/L NaCl, E. coli exhibited a marked increase in osmoprotective activity, a 168-fold rise in glycine betaine, and a 2.3-fold rise in K+. Enterococcus faealis exhibited a small increase in osmoprotective activity, a 9.3-fold increase in glycine betaine, and a twofold increase in K+. In contrast, strains of Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, and S. saprophyticus were found to have considerably greater osmoprotective activity, glycine betaine, and K+ than other organisms, even in the absence of external osmotic stress. Glycine betaine rose in some strains, but K+ remained virtually unchanged as the concentration of NaCl was increased. The high concentrations of glycine betaine and K+ in staphylococci, even in the absence of osmotic stress, may explain in part their remarkable salt tolerance and high turgor pressure.

Preparation of Organometallic Hydroxides and their Reactions with Lanthanide Compounds (2010)

Abstract The preparation of soluble organometallic hydroxides is a key step in the preparation of organometallic oxides containing the heterobimetallic M –O– M ′ unit. Compounds of composition L M OH where M is a Main Group metal (Ca, Sr, Al, Ga, Ge, Sn) and transition metal (Zr, Hf) are summarized. The reactions of Cp 3 Ln ( Ln = Yb, Dy, Er, Sm) with several hydroxides to yield compounds with the skeletons M (μ‐O) Ln and M (μ‐OH) Ln are reported. The application of the latter compounds in ϵ‐caprolactone polymerization is discussed. An unforeseen formation of a chlorine‐centered cluster of composition [(Me 3 Si) 2 NC(NCy) 2 SmCl 2 ] 5 (THF) 2 is reported.

UBAPV2G: A Unique Batch Authentication Protocol for Vehicle-to-Grid Communications (2011)

“Vehicle-to-grid” (V2G) power will be a new green energy scheme in which electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles communicate with the smart grid to sell demand response services by either delivering electricity into the grid or by throttling their charging rate. Due to high vehicular speed, sporadic connection, limited communication range, and large volume of data that need to be transmitted, V2G communications have the crucial requirements of fast authentication and encryption/decryption. This paper proposes a unique batch authentication protocol UBAPV2G that takes into account the characteristics of vehicle communication. The performance analysis shows that UBAPV2G can achieve less authentication delay, less computational cost, and less communication traffic, and security analysis shows that UBAPV2G is strong enough to defend against security attacks. The experimental results also demonstrate that UBAPV2G can achieve less authentication delay for large number of packets. Thus, UBAPV2G protocol is suitable for the stringent requirement of real time V2G communications.
Making serial number based authentication robust against loss of state (2000)

In this paper a novel method for making serial number based authentication protocols resilient against database failure is described. The method is applicable to the situation where a single server wishes to authenticate itself to a number of clients, but cannot reliably maintain a sequence number database. The solution has recently been included in a draft international standard for third generation mobile telecommunications, [1].

Therapeutic gene transfer for rheumatoid arthritis (2011)

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a severe autoimmune systemic disease. Chronic synovial inflammation results in destruction of the joints. No conventional treatment is efficient in RA. Gene therapy of RA targets mainly the players of inflammation or articular destruction: TNF-alpha or IL-1 blocking agents (such as anti-TNF-alpha monoclonal antibodies, soluble TNF-alpha receptor, type II soluble receptor of IL-1, IL-1 receptor antagonist), anti-inflammatory cytokines (such as IL-4, IL-10, IL-1), growth factors. In this polyarticular disease, the vector expressing the therapeutic protein can be administered as a local (intra articular injection) or a systemic treatment (extra articular injection). All the main vectors has been used in experimental models, including the more recent lentivirus and adeno-associated virus. Ex vivo gene transfer was done with synovial cells, fibroblasts, T cells, dendritic cells, and different cells from xenogenic origin. In vivo gene therapy is simpler, although less controlled method. Clinical trials in human RA has started with ex vivo retrovirus expressing IL-1 receptor antagonist and have demonstrated the feasibility of the strategy of gene therapy. The best target remains to be determined and extensive researches have to be conducted in pre-clinical studies.
Is It Possible to Measure Sectoral Productivity Levels? The Case of Manufacturing ∗ (2003)

This paper studies conversion factors based on the expenditure approach and evaluates the appropriateness for international productivity comparisons in manufacturing. We apply a consistency check based on the insight that relative productivity levels should be invariant to the choice of base year. Consequently, convergence parameters and dispersion of productivity across countries should also be unaffected. The results are disappointing: (i) relative measures of productivity depend heavily of the choice of base year and (ii) productivity in manufacturing sectors does not show evidence of convergence across OECD countries for early base years, whereas it does for later base years. Consequently, we cannot measure relative productivity levels in manufacturing across countries using these conversion factors.
Nonuniqueness in diffusion-based optical tomography (1998)

A condition on nonuniqueness in optical tomography is stated. The main result applies to steady-state (dc) diffusion-based optical tomography, wherein we demonstrate that simultaneous unique recovery of diffusion and absorption coefficients cannot be achieved. A specific example of two images that give identical dc data is presented. If the refractive index is considered an unknown, then nonuniqueness also occurs in frequency-domain and time-domain optical tomography, if the underlying model of the diffusion approximation is employed.
Applications of modern microdiffraction to materials science (1984)

SUMMARY Modern experimental techniques for static convergent beam electron microdiffraction in transmission electron microscopes are discussed and compared to the better known selected area electron microdiffraction methods. The effects of probe coherence are qualitatively discussed. Some recent applications of convergent beam microdiffraction to microstructural characterization of small particles, various lattice defects and amorphous solids are described.
Capacitively tuned dipole (1973)

Capacitive tuning of a dipole of almost any electrical length is demonstrated with an antenna configuration that is similar to the folded dipole. If variable-capacitance diodes are substituted for the capacitors, tuning over a very wide band of frequencies is possible.

Heparin-Network-Mediated Long-lasting Coatings on Intravascular Catheters for Adaptive Antithrombosis and Antibacterial Infection (2023)

Abstract Bacteria-associated infections and thrombosis have become life-threatening complications to human health, particular in catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBIs) and catheter-related thrombosis (CRT). Herein, multifunctional coating complex was fabricated by a concise assembly of heparin (HS) with organosilicon quaternary ammonium surfactants (DAC). Different from the conventional one-time coatings, obtained HS/DAC complex can attach on kinds of devices with arbitrary shapes and compositions via facile dip, and further form robust coatings for treating CRBIs and CRT simultaneously. Taking advantage of adaptive dissociation and robustness, HS/DAC coatings not only exhibit good stability even under extreme conditions, but also significantly reduce thrombus adhesion by 84.6% and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity (&gt; 99%) in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, ex-vivo rabbit model was used to verify the good antibacterial infection and antithrombic performances of HS/DAC coated catheters during the implantation. Such a substrate-independent and portable long-lasting multifunctional coating meets the growing anti-CRBIs and CRT demands in clinic.
Cyclooxygenase-2 Promotes Early Atherosclerotic Lesion Formation in LDL Receptor–Deficient Mice (2002)

The present studies provide strong pharmacological and genetic evidence that COX-2 promotes early atherosclerotic lesion formation in LDLR-/- mice in vivo. These results support the potential of anti-inflammatory approaches to the prevention of atherosclerosis.
[Long-term analysis of safety and efficacy of standard percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients with solitary kidneys]. (2020)

This study had the longest follow-up time for patients with solitary kidney stones after PCNL reported at home and abroad. Ultrasound-guided standard PCNL was safe and effective in the treatment of solitary kidney stones. Long-term follow-up results showed that the recurrence rate of kidney stones was still high, but the long-term renal function was stable after operation, and some patients showed mild renal function decline.

Cytokine Autoantibody Screening in the Swedish Addison Registry Identifies Patients With Undiagnosed APS1 (2017)

We propose that patients with Addison disease should be routinely screened for cytokine autoantibodies. Clinical or serological support for APS1 should warrant DNA sequencing and copy number analysis of AIRE to enable early diagnosis and prevention of lethal complications.
Bevacizumab-Based Therapies in the First-Line Treatment of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (2012)

Since its approval for the first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), bevacizumab has become a standard treatment option in combination with chemotherapy for patients with mCRC. Bevacizumab has demonstrated efficacy in combination with a number of different backbone chemotherapy regimens, and its widespread use has introduced several important questions regarding the selection and optimization of bevacizumab-based treatment regimens, its use in various patient populations, and the identification of associated adverse events. This review discusses the results of several phase II and phase III clinical trials, as well as large observational studies, to address the use of bevacizumab in the treatment of patients with mCRC in the first-line setting.
Changes in functional connectivity of the brain associated with a history of sport concussion: A preliminary investigation (2016)

Forecasts of the Scottish economy [February 2009] (2009)

The global economy is experiencing a significant contraction due to the spreading effects of the sub-prime and financial crisis. This has greater effects in the main developed economies (US, UK, France, Germany and Japan) but the repercussions affect countries such as Russia, China and India, where a sharp downturn in global growth adversely impacts on their growth.
Ni@Ru and NiCo@Ru Core–Shell Hexagonal Nanosandwiches with a Compositionally Tunable Core and a Regioselectively Grown Shell (2017)

The development of highly active electrocatalysts is crucial for the advancement of renewable energy conversion devices. The design of core-shell nanoparticle catalysts represents a promising approach to boost catalytic activity as well as save the use of expensive precious metals. Here, a simple, one-step synthetic route is reported to prepare hexagonal nanosandwich-shaped Ni@Ru core-shell nanoparticles (Ni@Ru HNS), in which Ru shell layers are overgrown in a regioselective manner on the top and bottom, and around the center section of a hexagonal Ni nanoplate core. Notably, the synthesis can be extended to NiCo@Ru core-shell nanoparticles with tunable core compositions (Ni<sub>3</sub> Co<sub>x</sub> @Ru HNS). Core-shell HNS structures show superior electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) to a commercial RuO<sub>2</sub> black catalyst, with their OER activity being dependent on their core compositions. The observed trend in OER activity is correlated to the population of Ru oxide (Ru<sup>4+</sup> ) species, which can be modulated by the core compositions.
The Analyst’s Use of Humor (1993)

The author presents two clinical vignettes involving the deliberate use of humor by the analyst, which appeared to help foster an atmosphere that promoted the analytic process. It is suggested that the analyst's use of humor conveyed information about his mental state and his attitude toward the patient which disconfirmed inhibiting expectations and thus increased the patient's ability to be self-reflective and to face painful affects. The potentially deleterious effects of humorlessness in the analyst are also discussed.
