All Inkjet-Printed B Field Sensor (2017)

This paper presents the realization and the experimental characterization of a low cost inkjet-printed DC magnetic field sensor. The device consists of a thin flexible cantilever beam operated at its first resonance frequency by the interaction between the target magnetic field and an AC current flowing through a coil printed on the beam. A resistive readout strategy is implemented by a printed strain gauge to measure the beam deflection strength, which is correlated to the target field strength. A dedicated electronics is used for the sake of the sensor operation. The sensor behaviour has been investigated for different values of the driving current and the target magnetic field. As an example, the sensor responsivity and resolution for a driving current of 20 mA @ 9.1 Hz (the beam resonance frequency) are 0.009 //T and 1.2 mT, respectively.

Three IgH isotypes, IgM, IgA and IgY are expressed in Gentoo penguin and zebra finch (2017)

Previous studies on a limited number of birds suggested that the IgD-encoding gene was absent in birds. However, one of our recent studies showed that the gene was definitely expressed in the ostrich and emu. Interestingly, we also identified subclass diversification of IgM and IgY in these two birds. To better understand immunoglobulin genes in birds, in this study, we analyzed the immunoglobulin heavy chain genes in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) and Gentoo penguin (Pygoscelis papua), belonging respectively to the order Passeriformes, the most successful bird order in terms of species diversity and numbers, and Sphenisciformes, a relatively primitive avian order. Similar to the results obtained in chickens and ducks, only three genes encoding immunoglobulin heavy chain isotypes, IgM, IgA and IgY, were identified in both species. Besides, we detected a transcript encoding a short membrane-bound IgA lacking the last two CH exons in the Gentoo penguin. We did not find any evidence supporting the presence of IgD gene or subclass diversification of IgM/IgY in penguin or zebra finch. The obtained data in our study provide more insights into the immunoglobulin heavy chain genes in birds and may help to better understand the evolution of immunoglobulin genes in tetrapods.
Relationship between lipopolysaccharide composition and virulence of Haemophilus ducreyi (1987)

The relationship between lipopolysaccharide (LPS) composition and virulence of Haemophilus ducreyi strains was investigated. Glycoses identified in LPS by gas-liquid chromatography were glucose, galactose, and their amino derivatives glucosamine and galactosamine. Fucose was found in trace amounts but mannose and rhamnose, characteristic of the O-side chain of LPS in many species, were not detected. Qualitatively, the LPS composition of the eight strains examined was similar and differences were mainly quantitative. The total glycose:KDO ratio of the LPS of virulent strains exceeded that of avirulent strains. All strains had similar fatty-acid composition but lacked lauric acid. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the LPS of virulent and avirulent strains also revealed differences in their electrophoretic mobilities. The LPS profiles of avirulent strains were similar, but differed from those of virulent strains. These profiles lacked high mol. wt bands representing O-side chain repeating units. Thus, differences in the electrophoretic mobilities of the LPS of virulent and avirulent strains may reflect differences in the amount of carbohydrates associated with the core polysaccharide.

Design and implementation of dynamically reconstructing system software (2002)

In traditional operating systems, there are many weak points. In monolithic kernel-based operating systems, many functions have been implemented in the kernel to satisfy various requests from user applications. As a result, the kernel itself has become more complex and bigger than expected, and many weak points have been appeared in it. A microkernel-based operating system improves the weak points of a monolithic kernel-based one by separating the kernel itself from the kernel functions (called system servers). In such a system, a microkernel architecture is supplied for flexibility and expansibility, but there are weak points in that structure too. In order to get over the weak points of traditional operating systems, a new operating system architecture is needed. In this paper, a new kernel structure is suggested. It enables one to reconstruct kernel functions dynamically at execution time, but there are some problems with realizing such a kernel. In this paper, we describe how to divide kernel functions into multiple modules and how to implement the suggested kernel. By implementing and evaluating a prototype of the kernel, the effectiveness of the suggested kernel architecture is confirmed.
Impact of an Electronic Pain and Opioid Risk Assessment Program: Are There Improvements in Patient Encounters and Clinic Notes? (2016)

Big data summarization using semantic feture for IoT on cloud (2014)

Data management is a crucial aspect in the Internet of Things (IoT) on Cloud. Big data is about the processing and analysis of large data repositories on Cloud computing. Big document summarization method is an important technique for data management of IoT. Traditional document summarization methods are restricted to summarize suitable information from the exploding IoT big data on Cloud. This paper proposes a big data (i.e., documents, texts) summarization method using the extracted semantic feature which it is extracted by distributed parallel processing of NMF based cloud technique of Hadoop. The proposed method can well represent the inherent structure of big documents set using the semantic feature by the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). In addition, it can summarize the big data size of document for IoT using the distributed parallel processing based on Hadoop. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can summarize the big data document comparing with the single node of summarization methods.
Clinical significance of urinary Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (uMCP-1) in Indian type 2 diabetic patients at different stages of diabetic nephropathy (2009)

Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) is the strongest known chemotactic factor for monocytes and is upregulated in diabetic nephropathy. So measuring urinary MCP-1 is of great significance in the diagnosis and intervention of early diabetic nephropathy. This study aims at determining the levels of urinary MCP-1 (uMCP-1) at different stages of diabetic nephropathy and to see its correlation with other parameters in Indian type2 diabetic subjects. A total of 64 (M:F; 40:24) type 2 diabetic subjects were divided into three groups based on their renal function and were compared with non-diabetic controls (Group 1) n = 20 (M:F; 13:7). The study groups were Group 2 (normoalbuminuria) n = 16, Group 3 (microalbuminuria) n = 23 and Group 4 (macroalbuminuria) n = 25. Demographic, anthropometric and biochemical details were recorded for all the subjects. Urinary MCP-1 levels were measured by using solid phase ELISA method. Mean levels of uMCP-1 in subjects with type 2 diabetes were significantly higher than in controls (p < 0.05). The levels of uMCP-1 in type 2 diabetic subjects increased gradually with deteriorating renal function (p = 0.006). There was a significant difference in urinary MCP-1 levels between Group 2 and Group 1 (p < 0.001). Levels of uMCP-1 were significantly higher in subjects with eGFR <60 ml/min compared to eGFR >60 ml/min (p = 0.008). uMCP-1 levels correlated positively with uACR or uPCR (r = 0.551, p < 0.0001), urea (r = 0.43, p < 0.0001) and creatinine (r = 0.478, p < 0.0001). A negative correlation between uMCP-1 and eGFR (r = −0.338, p = 0.006) was noted. Our study demonstrated that urinary MCP-1 levels increased gradually in type 2 diabetic subjects with deteriorating renal function. It is significantly associated with the other risk factors of diabetic nephropathy.
High bandwidth underwater optical communication (2008)

We report error-free underwater optical transmission measurements at 1 Gbit/s (10(9) bits/s) over a 2 m path in a laboratory water pipe with up to 36 dB of extinction. The source at 532 nm was derived from a 1064 nm continuous-wave laser diode that was intensity modulated, amplified, and frequency doubled in periodically poled lithium niobate. Measurements were made over a range of extinction by the addition of a Mg(OH)(2) and Al(OH)(3) suspension to the water path, and we were not able to observe any evidence of temporal pulse broadening. Results of Monte Carlo simulations over ocean water paths of several tens of meters indicate that optical communication data rates >1 Gbit/s can be supported and are compatible with high-capacity data transfer applications that require no physical contact.
Angiogenesis in the adipose tissue of tumor-bearing rabbits treated by cyclic plasma perfusion (2001)

The mechanisms of cancer cachexia have not been elucidated. We previously reported that cyclic plasma perfusion using non-coated charcoal was effective in cancer cachexia. In the present study we investigated the angiogenic effect of cyclic plasma perfusion on adipose tissue. Twenty rabbits were divided into two groups, i.e., tumor-bearing rabbits subjected to cyclic plasma perfusion (n=10, PP group), and tumor-bearing rabbits subjected to sham-perfusion (n=10, SP group). The changes in body weight, total body fat, and expression of angiogenic factors were investigated. Loss of body weight and total body fat was significantly suppressed in the PP group. Apoptosis of adipocytes was seen in both groups only in the early stage of tumor bearing. Lipolytic activity in the PP group showed a lower ratio than that in the SP group. In the PP group, increased microvessel density and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF) were seen at 40 days after transplantation. Similar findings were not seen in the SP group. These results suggest that cyclic plasma perfusion not only decreased lipolytic activity but induced angiogenesis in the adipose tissue.
Experimental Observation of a Periodically Oscillating Plasma Sphere in a Gridded Inertial Electrostatic Confinement Device (2005)

The periodically oscillating plasma sphere (POPS) [D. C. Barnes and R. A. Nebel, Phys. Plasmas 5, 2498 (1998).] oscillation has been observed in a gridded inertial electrostatic confinement device. In these experiments, ions in the virtual cathode exhibit resonant behavior when driven at the POPS frequency. Excellent agreement between the observed POPS resonance frequency and theoretical predictions has been observed for a wide range of potential well depths and for three different ion species. The results provide the first experimental validation of the POPS concept proposed by Barnes and Nebel [R. A. Nebel and D. C. Barnes, Fusion Technol. 34, 28 (1998).].
Torque-velocity relationships of the knee extensor and flexor muscles in individuals sustaining injuries of the anterior cruciate ligament (1984)

Muscle deficits in 58 patients with chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency were evaluated after completion of a 6 month rehabilitation program. Quadriceps and hamstring torques were measured on a modified Cybex II isokinetic dynamometer. Twenty-nine of our patients were tested just prior to undergoing ACL reconstruction, and patients who were continuing to tolerate their conditions served as controls. For the surgical group, significant quadriceps deficits (P less than 0.01) were found for all speeds and at both the 30 and 60 degrees positions. The nonsurgical group had significant deficits at the 30 degrees position at 180 degrees/sec, and at 60 degrees for the 0 degree/sec and 30 degrees/sec. However, in comparing the two groups no significant differences were noted. Regarding hamstring deficits in the surgical group, significant deficits were seen only at 30 degrees of flexion at 180 degrees/sec. The nonsurgical group had similar deficits. Of interest was the observation that the hamstring:quadriceps (H:Q) ratio was found to be both speed-position dependent. Overall, no correlation was found between the presence of strength deficits following a rehabilitation program and the need for surgery.
Large-Eddy Simulation/Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes Simulations of High-Speed Mixing Processes (2014)

A large-eddy simulation/Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes model is applied to three high-speed mixing layers and three sonic injection flows to generate data suitable for evaluating two current Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes models for turbulent mass diffusivity. These models solve transport equations for concentration variance and dissipation rate and differ in the constitutive relation for the turbulent mass diffusivity and the form of the evolution equation for the dissipation rate. The predictive capability of the large-eddy simulation/Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes model is assessed through simulations of an air–air mixing-layer experiment and a sonic ethylene injection into a Mach 2.0 airstream. This model provides good predictions of the mean velocity, turbulence intensity, and rms temperature fluctuation throughout the shear layer flowfield but slightly over-predicts the spreading rate of the mixing layer. The simulation of the sonic injection is in generally good agreement with the experiment but underpredicts the level of jet entrainment. Four other large-eddy simulation/Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes data sets, involving the replacement of the lower airstream in the mixing-layer configuration by an argon stream and a helium stream, and a replacement of the injectant gas in the sonic injection experiment with argon and helium are also generated. All data sets are “mined” to extract turbulent mass diffusivities, concentration variances, and scalar dissipation rates associated with the resolved eddy motion. The results show that both models can be optimized to achieve a good match with the exact scalar variance production rate.
ScriptIoT: A Script Framework for and Internet-of-Things Applications (2015)

Following recent advances in sensing and wireless technologies, Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications are being exploited in various fields. The scale of IoT systems and the number of devices that they include has become huge, and the construction of IoT applications is, therefore, becoming increasingly challenging. This work proposes a script framework as a convenient development interface for service-oriented architecture (SOA) scheduling of web-based information of IoT applications, called ScriptIoT, which is composed of the IoT fundamental in case of all type of devices integration and a scriptable agent. Based on the IoT fundamental class, various IoT devices may be developed and the scriptable agent enables IoT applications to be configured using scripts. The proposed ScriptIoT framework, which offers both polling an event-driven mechanism for delegating IoT applications to the agent and reporting event of the specified device, contributes to large-scale applications. Experiments herein reveal that in the proposed ScriptIoT framework, the access time and CPU loading are slightly greater than those achieved using traditional C programming by 3% and 13%, respectively, but the proposed framework exhibits improved flexibility and scalability.
G-MIND: an end-to-end multimodal imaging-genetics framework for biomarker identification and disease classification (2021)

We propose a novel deep neural network architecture to integrate imaging and genetics data, as guided by diagnosis, that provides interpretable biomarkers. Our model consists of an encoder, a decoder and a classifier. The encoder learns a non-linear subspace shared between the input data modalities. The classifier and the decoder act as regularizers to ensure that the low-dimensional encoding captures predictive differences between patients and controls. We use a learnable dropout layer to extract interpretable biomarkers from the data, and our unique training strategy can easily accommodate missing data modalities across subjects. We have evaluated our model on a population study of schizophrenia that includes two functional MRI (fMRI) paradigms and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) data. Using 10-fold cross validation, we demonstrate that our model achieves better classification accuracy than baseline methods, and that this performance generalizes to a second dataset collected at a different site. In an exploratory analysis we further show that the biomarkers identified by our model are closely associated with the well-documented deficits in schizophrenia.
Introduction to Power System Analysis (2019)

Best practice to achieve overall, credible performance of a power system is to develop a virtual system model via an intelligent one-line diagram and introduce the means to keep it up to date regularly. The power-system reliability or maintenance engineer should verify the availability of all major equipment regularly. Short-circuit and load-flow analysis are typically performed during initial power-system design and operation whenever system changes are made, to ensure that device duty and continuous operational ratings are adequate for safe and reliable operation of the system. The engineer working with digital computers for power-systems analysis should become familiar with system modeling assumptions, software modeling techniques, methods of analysis, data-entry guidelines, interpretation of results, and more. The electrical system one-line diagram must be updated to illustrate the power system accurately. Electrical Transient Analyzer Program provides an easy-to-use, fully graphical user interface for constructing one-line diagrams.

Human Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 Up-Regulates Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I and II Expression on Respiratory Epithelial Cells: Involvement of a STAT1- and CIITA-Independent Pathway (1999)

Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) infection causes severe damage to the lung epithelium, leading to bronchiolitis, pneumonia, and croup in newborns and infants. Cellular immunity that plays a vital role in normal antiviral action appears to be involved, possibly because of inappropriate activation, in the infection-related damage to the lung epithelium. In this study, we investigated the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules on human lung epithelial (A549) and epithelium-like (HT1080) cells following HPIV3 infection. MHC class I was induced by HPIV3 in these cells at levels similar to those observed with natural inducers such as beta and gamma interferon (IFN-beta and -gamma). MHC class II was also efficiently induced by HPIV3 in these cells. UV-irradiated culture supernatants from infected cells were able to induce MHC class I but not MHC class II, suggesting involvement of released factors for the induction of MHC class I. Quantitation of IFN types I and II in the culture supernatant showed the presence of IFN-beta as the major cytokine, while IFN-gamma was undetectable. Anti-IFN-beta, however, blocked the HPIV3-mediated induction of MHC class I only partially, indicating that viral antigens, besides IFN-beta, are directly involved in the induction process. The induction of MHC class I and class II directed by the viral antigens was confirmed by using cells lacking STAT1, an essential intermediate of the IFN signaling pathways. HPIV3 induced both MHC class I and class II molecules in STAT1-null cells. Furthermore, MHC class II was also induced by HPIV3 in cells defective in class II transactivator, an important intermediate of the IFN-gamma-mediated MHC class II induction pathway. Together, these data indicate that the HPIV3 gene product(s) is directly involved in the induction of MHC class I and II molecules. The induction of MHC class I and II expression by HPIV3 suggests that it plays a role in the infection-related immunity and pathogenesis.
Photocatalytic degradation of atrazine by heteropolyoxotungstates (2019)

An elegant and eco-friendly photocatalytic degradation approach for the most commonly used herbicide, Atrazine (ATZ); allowed a selective and partial degradation into atrazine-2-hydroxy (Hydroxyatrazine, HAT), which was the sole obtained metabolite. The effect of tungstosilicates and tungstophosphates as photocatalysts under 60 min UV irradiation at two different wavelengths; 254 and 366 nm; was investigated by measuring the absorbance at 10-min intervals, using 720-UV spectrophotometry. ATZ conversion rate was the highest when irradiating with the higher-energy 254 nm UV light. This resulted into 54% degradation in the presence of the silicon-based α-Keggin dodecatungstosilicate [α-SiW12O40]4−, whereas 17% was decomposed in its absence. The nature of the heteroatom as well as the structural type of the studied polyoxometalates had a significant effect on the degradation percentage. Accordingly, 31% of ATZ was only decomposed in presence of the phosphorus-analogue [α-PW12O40]4− whereas the cyclic super-lacunary octatetracontatungstooctaphosphate [P8W48O184]40− increased the degradation to 41%.
Vortices, zero modes and fractionalization in bilayer-graphene exciton condensate (2008)

A real-space formulation is given for the recently discussed exciton condensate in a symmetrically biased graphene bilayer. We show that in the continuum limit an oddly-quantized vortex in this condensate binds exactly one zero mode per valley index of the bilayer. In the full lattice model the zero modes are split slightly due to intervalley mixing. We support these results by an exact numerical diagonalization of the lattice Hamiltonian. We also discuss the effect of the zero modes on the charge content of these vortices and deduce some of their interesting properties.
