Use of monoclonal antibodies to follow the phylogenic distribution of human renal antigens (1987)

Nine human differentiation antigens have been defined by monoclonal antibodies (M. Abs) developed from mice immunized with embryonic kidney cells (mesonephros or metanephros of 7 week-developmental ages). Their spatial and temporal distributions during human kidney organization were previously studied [3]. In this paper we have attempted to follow by immunofluorescence their phylogenic location, from fish to mammals. Six of them recognized the same structures as in humans: proximal convoluted tubules (PCT) (EG9.11, EG19.6, E116.1), glomerular basement membrane (GBM) (EG14.1) and extracellular matrix (EK8.1, EK17.1). However, staining was limited to certain mammals. EK17.1 has been characterized as an anti-fibronectin. These antibodies revealed the same histological structures in the human mesonephros and metanephros. The three other antibodies revealed epitopes appearing earlier in evolution and whose histological distribution varied according to species. These antibodies stained different structures in the mesonephros and metanephros. Thus, the staining particularities observed during human renal ontogenesis were found again in the phylogenetical study.
Die Absicherung von Druckbehältern mit den Mitteln der Meß‐ und Regeltechnik — eine Alternative zur Druckentlastung (1990)

Abstract Safety of pressure vessels by means of measurement and control engineering – an alternative to pressure release. The practice of safety engineering shows that pressure release devices are appropriate or reasonable for only a small portion of the reactions requiring safety assurance measures. One reason is that there is not always an unequivocal relationship between pressure and the factors temperature and concentration which influence the reaction rate. Such a relationship is necessary for reliable pressure release. In addition, environmental protection requires that vapours and liquids leaving the reactor be condensed and collected. Devices used in process control engineering represent alternatives to pressure release systems. They are intended to prevent systems from reaching impermissible operating states. However, this requires very accurate process analysis, for any unrecognized deviation from the correct value of a safety‐relevant process variable could make a safety concept based solely on process control engineering ineffective.

A simpler 100-V polysilicon TFT with improved turn-on characteristics (1990)

An improved polysilicon high-voltage thin-film transistor (HVTFT) structure for eliminating the current-pinching phenomenon often observed in the conventional offset-gate polysilicon HVTFTs is discussed. The device employs, in lieu of implantation, a metal field plate overlapping the entire offset region to control the conductivity of the offset region. By properly biasing the field plate to distribute the drain electric field at both ends, high-voltage operation of up to 100 V, suitable for many large-area applications, is achieved. Good turn-on characteristics without current pinching effects are consistently obtained. The structure also eliminates the lightly doped drain implant required in conventional offset-gate HVTFTs, resulting in a simpler and more reproducible process.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
Delay in Retinal Photoreceptor Development in Very Preterm Compared to Term Infants (2015)

Photoreceptor inner and outer segment development in VPT infants appears delayed when compared to term infants, and the photoreceptor RPE junction remains immature in all infants at TEA. Delayed maturation of photoreceptors could contribute to differences in visual function in some VPT infants.
Mechanism of charge transport in polypyrrole, poly(N-methyl pyrrole) and their copolymers (1996)

The temperature dependence of the dc conductivity of electrochemically polymerized films of polypyrrole, poly(N-methyl pyrrole) and their copolymers, poly(N-methyl pyrrole-pyrrole), having different percentage of BF−4 ions has been investigated in the temperature range 77–350 K. The observed behavior could be explained in terms of Mott’s variable range hopping model involving a single phonon process. The estimated values of polaron radius yield the realistic values of density of states at the Fermi level which are in good agreement with the values reported earlier for other polyconjugated systems.
Association between bilirubin and cardiovascular disease risk factors: using Mendelian randomization to assess causal inference (2012)

Our findings imply that the observed association of serum bilirubin levels with body mass index and cholesterol are likely due to confounding and suggest that previously established CVD benefits of increased bilirubin may in part be mediated by the early regulation of vascular structure and reactivity.

Increased Frequencies of Gene and Chromosome Mutations after X‐Irradiation in Mouse Embryonal Carcinoma Cells Transfected with the bcl‐2 Gene (2000)

Preimplantation stage mouse embryos are known to be highly sensitive to the killing effect of DNA-damaging agents such as radiation. Interestingly, however, this stage of development is well protected from radiation induction of malformation and carcinogenesis in postnatal life. In recent years, it has become clear that the stem cells of preimplantation stage embryos undergo extensive apoptosis after DNA damage. It has been postulated that this apoptosis is likely to be responsible for the resistance to malformation, by excluding cells carrying deleterious DNA damage. We have tested the possible role of apoptosis in elimination of gene and chromosome mutations in undifferentiated mouse embryonal carcinoma cell line, F9, transfected with human bcl-2 cDNA. The colony radiosensitivity of F9 cells was not affected by overexpression of the bcl-2 gene, but the apoptotic cell death was suppressed, as examined by DNA ladder assay and Hoechst staining. This suppression was accompanied by an increase in the frequencies of hprt mutation and micronucleus formation after X-irradiation. These results support the idea that maintenance of genomic integrity during early development is likely to be executed by apoptotic elimination of cells at risk.
Feasibility and Safety of Renal and Visceral Target Vessel Cannulation Using Robotically Steerable Catheters During Complex Endovascular Aortic Procedures (2015)

Cannulation of target vessels with the RCS during complex endovascular aortic procedures is feasible and safe. The robotic system was particularly effective for branched and chimney stents.
Influencing health-related behaviour with wearable cameras (2013)

BACKGROUND: The growing global burden of noncommunicable diseases makes it important to monitor and influence a range of health-related behaviours such as diet and physical activity Wearable cameras appear to record and reveal many of these behaviours in more accessible ways. However, having determined opportunities for improvement, most health-related interventions fail to result in lasting changes.

Effect of plasma volume on monostatic radar cross section control (2018)

Under atmospheric pressure, dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) with a plasma layer is utilized to produce large-volume plasma without a vessel. When a 16-kV bias at 1 kHz is applied to 85 copper strips, the DBD actuator generates plasma with the dimensions 170 × 170 × 1 mm. When the incident wave with an electric wave vector perpendicular to the strip array is illuminated, the monostatic radar cross section (RCS) is reduced by a maximum of 3.5 dB. The measured results are validated using full-wave simulation based on homogeneous plasma, with estimated plasma parameters. By changing the number of copper strips connected to the feed line, the relative volume of plasma can be changed. If the relative volume decreases by 20%, the maximum RCS reduction is reduced by nearly 20%. This demonstrates the possibility of using plasma to control monostatic RCS in a wide bandwidth.
Design of &#946;-turn Based Therapeutic Agents (2003)

Peptides and proteins are essential to many biological processes. The interaction between the peptide ligands and their receptor targets commonly involves beta-turn structures. Yet poor bioavailability and unfavorable pharmacokinetics significantly compromise the use of peptides as drugs. Thus, there has been a great deal of interest in the design of peptidomimetics (modified peptides) as therapeutic agents by mimicking beta-turn structures. This review highlights the importance of beta-turn in the design of various peptidomimetics for many diseases. This review also outlines several beta-turn mimicking strategies and its application in the design of potent peptide analogues. beta-turn mimetics often tend to be more rigid in positioning the critically important amino acid residues and thus optimize the surface conformation for productive interaction with the receptors.
High‐Adhesion Metallic Networks: Bioinspired High‐Adhesion Metallic Networks as Flexible Transparent Conductors (Adv. Mater. Technol. 8/2019) (2019)

In article 1900056, Jinwei Gao and co-workers present a high adhesion metallic network, coated with root-mimicking dendritic nanowires, inspired by the ground-gripping functionality of bamboo roots. This network shows not only good optoelectronic performance (≈85% transparency and ≈1.5 Ω sq−1 sheet resistance), but also excellent adhesion to flexible substrates and enhanced haze, which is of benefit to the effective window electrodes of OLEDs and solar cells.
Chemistry of the Actinide Elements (1952)

itself primarily with the chemical literature appearing during the year 1950. Where the discussion requires it, publica­ tions before 1950 will be cited, but no systematic survey of all of the per­ tinent literature between 1945 and 1949 can be undertaken here. The year has been an active one in this field. More than 200 publications dealing with various aspects of the actinide elements have appeared. The appearance of a number of volumes of the National Nuclear Energy Series has been particularly significant in bringing the results of much war-time research to the attention of the scientific world. Increasing attention has been devoted to some of the hitherto more obscure members of the actinide ele­ ments, especially elements actinium and protactinium. The greater portion of activity, however, remains concentrated on the chemistry of uranium and thorium, presumably because of their comparatively greater accessibility. Noteworthy during the period under discussion has been the discovery of elements 97 and 98, berkelium and californium. The electronic configuration of the actinide elements has generated a lively discussion which has done much to clarify the relationships of the actinide elements to each other and to the remainder of the elements in the periodic system.
Giant magnetostriction of amorphousTbxFe1−x(0.10<x<0.45) thin films and its correlation with perpendicular anisotropy (1995)

The magnetostrictive behavior of amorphous ${\mathrm{Tb}}_{\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{Fe}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathit{x}}$ (0.10x0.45) thin films was studied by measuring the stress derivative of the perpendicular anisotropy. Large values of the magnetostriction were found, of order ${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}3}$, about the same as the value observed in their polycrystalline counterparts. Within this composition range, ${\mathrm{Tb}}_{45}$${\mathrm{Fe}}_{55}$ shows a large magnetostriction with a relatively low anisotropy which makes it a good candidate for application as a magnetoelastic element. After annealing at low temperature (175 \ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C), relaxation of both perpendicular anisotropy and magnetostriction was observed. However, the relaxation strength was particularly remarkable in the range of low Tb content (x0.30). The relaxation behavior seems to indicate that local anelastic strain may be the origin of this bond anisotropy for low Tb content while additional structural anisotropy is likely to be responsible for the anisotropy in higher Tb content films.
Smart radio environments empowered by reconfigurable AI meta-surfaces: an idea whose time has come (2019)

Future wireless networks are expected to constitute a distributed intelligent wireless communications, sensing, and computing platform, which will have the challenging requirement of interconnecting the physical and digital worlds in a seamless and sustainable manner. Currently, two main factors prevent wireless network operators from building such networks: (1) the lack of control of the wireless environment, whose impact on the radio waves cannot be customized, and (2) the current operation of wireless radios, which consume a lot of power because new signals are generated whenever data has to be transmitted. In this paper, we challenge the usual “more data needs more power and emission of radio waves” status quo, and motivate that future wireless networks necessitate a smart radio environment: a transformative wireless concept, where the environmental objects are coated with artificial thin films of electromagnetic and reconfigurable material (that are referred to as reconfigurable intelligent meta-surfaces), which are capable of sensing the environment and of applying customized transformations to the radio waves. Smart radio environments have the potential to provide future wireless networks with uninterrupted wireless connectivity, and with the capability of transmitting data without generating new signals but recycling existing radio waves. We will discuss, in particular, two major types of reconfigurable intelligent meta-surfaces applied to wireless networks. The first type of meta-surfaces will be embedded into, e.g., walls, and will be directly controlled by the wireless network operators via a software controller in order to shape the radio waves for, e.g., improving the network coverage. The second type of meta-surfaces will be embedded into objects, e.g., smart t-shirts with sensors for health monitoring, and will backscatter the radio waves generated by cellular base stations in order to report their sensed data to mobile phones. These functionalities will enable wireless network operators to offer new services without the emission of additional radio waves, but by recycling those already existing for other purposes. This paper overviews the current research efforts on smart radio environments, the enabling technologies to realize them in practice, the need of new communication-theoretic models for their analysis and design, and the long-term and open research issues to be solved towards their massive deployment. In a nutshell, this paper is focused on discussing how the availability of reconfigurable intelligent meta-surfaces will allow wireless network operators to redesign common and well-known network communication paradigms.

Dynamic piezoelectric MEMS-based optical metasurfaces (2021)

Optical metasurfaces (OMSs) have shown unprecedented capabilities for versatile wavefront manipulations at the subwavelength scale. However, most well-established OMSs are static, featuring well-defined optical responses determined by OMS configurations set during their fabrication, whereas dynamic OMS configurations investigated so far often exhibit specific limitations and reduced reconfigurability. Here, by combining a thin-film piezoelectric microelectromechanical system (MEMS) with a gap-surface plasmon-based OMS, we develop an electrically driven dynamic MEMS-OMS platform that offers controllable phase and amplitude modulation of the reflected light by finely actuating the MEMS mirror. Using this platform, we demonstrate MEMS-OMS components for polarization-independent beam steering and two-dimensional (2D) focusing with high modulation efficiencies (~50%), broadband operation (~20% near the operating wavelength of 800 nanometers), and fast responses (<0.4 milliseconds). The developed MEMS-OMS platform offers flexible solutions for realizing complex dynamic 2D wavefront manipulations that could be used in reconfigurable and adaptive optical networks and systems.
Liver Function Tests after Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration Are Not Reliable (2022)

INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) to manage choledocholithiasis at the time of cholecystectomy (LC+LCBDE) is gaining traction and requires examination of the role of postoperative laboratory data to guide clinical care. We examined postoperative liver function test (LFT) trends in the context of successful and failed LCBDE. METHODS: Retrospective review of all adult emergency general surgery (EGS) patients undergoing LCBDE over a 3-year period. Failed LC+LCBDE was defined as the subsequent need for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for duct clearance. Postoperative LFTs from both successful and failed LCBDE attempts were analyzed. Postoperative laboratory values from all LC+LCBDE were classified as increased, decreased, or unchanged from preoperative. Procedure outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS: Sixty patients underwent LCBDE. Ten patients were excluded for not having preoperative laboratory tests or any postoperative laboratory tests. Thirty-three of the remaining 50 patients had 2 sets of postoperative laboratory tests. In patients who underwent successful LCBDE, there was no statistical difference (p > 0.05) between the preoperative and the 1st postoperative or 2nd postoperative laboratory tests regarding total bilirubin, aspartate/alanine aminotransferase, or alkaline phosphatase. For patients who had an unsuccessful LCBDE and required postoperative ERCP, this was also true. No patients with successful LCBDE with increased postoperative laboratory tests had complication. CONCLUSION: Despite the LCBDE outcome, postoperative laboratory tests do not provide reliable prognostication as would be expected in the given clinical context. Contrast flow into the duodenum and surgeon judgment are better indicators of duct clearance. It is safe to discharge patients without LFT after successful and uneventful LCBDE.
Neural netwok based X-ray tomography for fast inspection of apples on a conveyor belt system (2015)

The throughput of an inline computed tomography (CT) based inspection system depends on the speed of its image reconstruction algorithm. Filtered back projection (FBP) provides fast reconstructions, but requires many high quality radiographs from all angles to obtain accurate reconstructions. This is not achievable in an inline environment. Iterative reconstruction methods yield adequate reconstructions from limited, but they are slow. Recently a new reconstruction algorithm was introduced [1] that can handle limited data and is very fast: the neural network FBP (NN-FBP). In this work, we introduce a neural network (NN) based Hilbert transform FBP (NN-hFBP) for inline inspection. This method reconstructs images with a filter-based Hilbert transform FBP method. The filters are application specific and trained by a neural network. Comparison of the NN-hFBP and conventional reconstruction methods applied to inline fan-beam X-ray data of apples shows that the NN-hFBP yields high quality images in a short reconstruction time.
Recurrent Graph Tensor Networks: A Low-Complexity Framework for Modelling High-Dimensional Multi-Way Sequences (2021)

Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are among the most successful machine learning models for sequence modelling, but tend to suffer from an exponential increase in the number of parameters when dealing with large multidimensional data. To this end, we develop a multi-linear graph filter framework for approximating the modelling of hidden states in RNNs, which is embedded in a tensor network architecture to improve modelling power and reduce parameter complexity, resulting in a novel Recurrent Graph Tensor Network (RGTN). The proposed framework is validated through several multi-way sequence modelling tasks and benchmarked against traditional RNNs. By virtue of the domain aware information processing of graph filters and the expressive power of tensor networks, we show that the proposed RGTN is capable of not only outperforming standard RNNs, but also mitigating the Curse of Dimensionality associated with traditional RNNs, demonstrating superior properties in terms of performance and complexity.
