CDX2 expression in the stomach with intestinal metaplasia and intestinal-type cancer: Prognostic implications (2002)

CDX2, a transcriptional factor expressed in the intestine, is implicated in the development and maintenance of the intestinal mucosa. Recent studies have demonstrated that CDX2 is expressed in the intestinal metaplasia of the stomach and intestinal-type gastric cancer, while it is not expressed in the normal gastric mucosa. To investigate the role of CDX2 in gastric cancer, we determined CDX2 expression and cell proliferation rate in various types of gastric cancer tissues by immunostaining. Surgically dissected gastric cancer tissues were collected from 40 patients. Consistent with previous reports, CDX2 was expressed in most gastric mucosa samples with intestinal metaplasia (89%, 16/18), although it was not found in the adjacent normal mucosa. CDX2 expression was also detected in 64% (18/28) of intestinal-type gastric cancer cases, whereas it was not observed in the diffuse-type gastric cancer (0/12). Moreover, the CDX2-positive gastric cancer samples showed significantly lower index for Ki-67 immunostaining, indicating reduced cell proliferation rates than in the CDX2-negative samples. Importantly, multivariate analysis for the overall survival rate revealed that the CDX2-positive gastric cancer patients survived significantly longer than the CDX2-negative patients. Even among the intestinal-type gastric cancer cases, the CDX2-positive group showed a lower Ki-67 index and longer postoperative survival than the CDX2-negative group. These results collectively indicate that CDX2 expression in gastric cancer tissues can be a novel prognostic marker for patient survival.
A hardware framework for the fast generation of multiple long-period random number streams (2008)

Stochastic simulations and other scientific applications that depend on random numbers are increasingly implemented in a parallelized manner in programmable logic. High-quality pseudo-random number generators (PRNG), such as the Mersenne Twister, are often based on binary linear recurrences and have extremely long periods (more than 21024. Many software implementations of such PRNGs exist, but hardware implementations are rare. We have developed an optimized, resource-efficient parallel framework for this class of random number generators that exploits the underlying algorithm as well as FPGA-specific architectural features. The framework also incorporates fast "jump-ahead" capability for these PRNGs, allowing simultaneous, independent sub-streams to be generated in parallel by partitioning one long-period pseudo-random sequence
Molecular Recognition of Human Insulin Receptor by Autoantibodies in a Human Serum (1988)

Immune IgG was obtained from a patient's serum with autoantibodies against human insulin receptor (HIR). The binding activity of these autoantibodies to seven synthetic peptides of the alpha-subunit of HIR was examined by radioimmuno-adsorbent titrations. Autoantibodies were bound by two of these peptides, namely alpha 277-299 and alpha 705-731, and this binding was not inhibited by a very large (1,000 x) molar excess of normal human IgG. Furthermore, none of the peptides exhibited any binding activity towards 125I-labelled normal human IgG. Therefore, it was concluded that the regions alpha 277-299 and alpha 705-731 contain autoantigenic sites of HIR. In addition, region alpha 655-670 might constitute a minor antigenic site of HIR. Localization of these autoantigenic sites will permit the molecular investigation of the insulin-like activity of anti-HIR autoantibodies.
Bioconversion of Shellfish Chitin Waste: Waste Pretreatment, Enzyme Production, Process Design, and Economic Analysis (1982)

ABSTRACT Study of pretreatment of shrimp processing waste for a chitin bioconversion scheme to produce yeast single‐cell protein established conditions for size reduction, deproteination, and demineralization. Enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated chitin waste achieved 80% conversion in 24 hr. Optimum temperature and pH were determined for maximum chitinase production in submerged culture, using pretreated chitin waste as substrate. An integrated process scheme for conversion of shrimp shell chitin waste to yeast single‐cell protein based on these and previous results was designed and analyzed economically, giving a negative after‐tax cash flow of $0.06 per kg of wet waste.
Critcal and Safe Masses and Dimensions of Lattices of U and UO<sub>2</sub> Rods in Water (1966)

A survey is given of available critical and exponential data obtained with water-reflected lattices of slightly enriched uranium and uranium oxide rods. Calculations are made for these lattices by an asymptotic multigroup buckling code and by a two-group diffusion theory code employing parameters generated in the first code. Comparison between calculations and experiments is made in terms of a k<sub>eff</sub>, which is the ratio of the calculated k to that calculated from the experimental dimensions and flux traverses and from the calculated migration areas and extrapolation distances. For some of the data, comparisons are also made between the present method of calculations and a more highly sophisticated method.
Multipoint Statistical Characterization of Geologic Facies from Dynamic Data and Uncertain Training Images (2011)

Abstract Discrete geologic features that contribute to preferential flowpaths or act as flow barriers are rarely amenable to second-order descriptions. Using a conceptual model or training image (TI), multipoint statistics (MPS) provides a systematic approach to describe the higher-order spatial statistics of discrete geologic features. Conditioning MPS facies realizations on flow data poses a challenging nonlinear inverse problem, primarily because of the nonlinear relation between facies properties and flow response measurements. Since MPS simulated facies imitate the spatial patterns in the TI, the quality of the generated facies depend on the reliability of the TI. However, given the uncertainty in the knowledge used to construct a TI, it is imperative to account for and represent the uncertainty in any given TI. One approach to account for TI uncertainty is to use multiple TIs to cover the expected range of structural variability in geologic facies. When several TIs are used to represent the uncertainty in the conceptual geologic model for a given field, flow data may be used to quantify the importance of different TIs. Here, we present a new method for adaptively sampling conditional facies from multiple uncertain TIs. By applying a fast flow-based clustering approach, we show that one can adaptively sample facies realizations from multiple TIs to honor the observed flow data. We apply a probability conditioning method (PCM) to invert the flow data to construct a facies probability map that can be included in drawing conditional facies realizations from each TI. We illustrate that the proposed adaptive sampling scheme can be used to weigh different TI s according to their performance in matching the flow data. We demonstrate the suitability of the proposed method using numerical experiments in fluvial formations where several TIs are used to account for the uncertainty in facies structural connectivity.
Spin-Hall magnetoresistance in platinum on yttrium iron garnet: Dependence on platinum thickness and in-plane/out-of-plane magnetization (2013)

The occurrence of spin-Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) in platinum (Pt) on top of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) has been investigated, for both in-plane and out-of-plane applied magnetic fields and for different Pt thicknesses [3, 4, 8, and 35 nm]. Our experiments show that the SMR signal directly depends on the in-plane and out-of-plane magnetization directions of the YIG. This confirms the theoretical description, where the SMR occurs due to the interplay of the spin-orbit interaction in the Pt and the spin-mixing conductance at the YIG/Pt interface. Additionally, the sensitivity of the SMR and spin pumping signals on the YIG/Pt interface conditions is shown by comparing two different deposition techniques (e-beam evaporation and dc sputtering).
Adjuvant activity of carbohydrate analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine on the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity to azobenzenearsonate-N-acetyl-L-tyrosine in guinea pigs (1981)

The adjuvant activity of 29 kinds of carbohydrate analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine on the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity to azobenzenearsonate-N-acetyl-L-tyrosine was examined in guinea pigs. It was found that the D-manno- and D-galacto-type muramyldipeptides were as active as the D-gluco-type muramyldipeptide (MDP). The structural requirement of the carbohydrate moiety of analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine is discussed.
SSH: Single Stage Headless Face Detector (2017)

We introduce the Single Stage Headless (SSH) face detector. Unlike two stage proposal-classification detectors, SSH detects faces in a single stage directly from the early convolutional layers in a classification network. SSH is headless. That is, it is able to achieve state-of-the-art results while removing the “head” of its underlying classification network - i.e. all fully connected layers in the VGG-16 which contains a large number of parameters. Additionally, instead of relying on an image pyramid to detect faces with various scales, SSH is scale-invariant by design. We simultaneously detect faces with different scales in a single forward pass of the network, but from different layers. These properties make SSH fast and light-weight. Surprisingly, with a headless VGG-16, SSH beats the ResNet-101-based state-of-the-art on the WIDER dataset. Even though, unlike the current state-of-the-art, SSH does not use an image pyramid and is 5X faster. Moreover, if an image pyramid is deployed, our light-weight network achieves state-of-the-art on all subsets of the WIDER dataset, improving the AP by 2.5%. SSH also reaches state-of-the-art results on the FDDB and Pascal-Faces datasets while using a small input size, leading to a speed of 50 frames/second on a GPU.
An autonomous system for high-resolution mapping of indoor wireless coverage (2017)

This paper describes an autonomous robotic system for characterizing and mapping indoor wireless coverage. Most current-generation systems for measuring wireless coverage require human testers to walk around a prescribed path and manually record their position. This time-consuming process limits measurement resolution and its accuracy is subject to human error. As indoor coverage solutions become more widespread, techniques for efficiently measuring coverage quality are growing in importance. The autonomous robotic system described automatically explores an area and accurately determines its position relative to the building map. Handset logging equipment onboard the robot determines physical layer data rates and signal quality as measured by metrics such as SNR, RSRP, and CQI. Following the robotic test, postprocessing software overlays the test metrics on the building map to create significantly higher resolution coverage maps than have been previously possible. This system allows for verification of wireless coverage against service level agreements, and for repetitive testing of in-development indoor solutions.
Photoacoustic-based approach to surgical guidance performed with and without a da Vinci robot (2017)

Death and paralysis are significant risks of modern surgeries, caused by injury to blood vessels and nerves hidden by bone and other tissue. We propose an approach to surgical guidance that relies on photoacoustic (PA) imaging to determine the separation between these critical anatomical features and to assess the extent of safety zones during surgical procedures. Images were acquired as an optical fiber was swept across vessel-mimicking targets, in the absence and presence of teleoperation with a research da Vinci Surgical System. Vessel separation distances were measured directly from PA images. Vessel positions were additionally recorded based on the fiber position (calculated from the da Vinci robot kinematics) that corresponded to an observed PA signal, and these recordings were used to indirectly measure vessel separation distances. Amplitude- and coherence-based beamforming were used to estimate vessel separations, resulting in 0.52- to 0.56-mm mean absolute errors, 0.66- to 0.71-mm root-mean-square errors, and 65% to 68% more accuracy compared to fiber position measurements obtained through the da Vinci robot kinematics. Similar accuracy was achieved in the presence of up to 4.5-mm-thick ex vivo tissue. Results indicate that PA image-based measurements of the separation among anatomical landmarks could be a viable method for real-time path planning in multiple interventional PA applications.

A Comparison of Oral Azithromycin with Topical Oxytetracycline/Polymyxin for the Treatment of Trachoma in Children (1997)

Trachoma, an infectious keratoconjunctivitis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, is a leading cause of preventable blindness in developing countries. In this study we compared oral azithromycin with oxytetracycline/polymyxin eye ointment (once daily for 5 days every 4 weeks; total of six treatment cycles) for the treatment of active endemic trachoma in 168 rural Egyptian children. A suspension of azithromycin was administered to children as a dose of 20 mg/kg by one of three schedules: a single dose, one dose a week for 3 weeks, and one dose every 4 weeks for a total of six doses. The children's clinical status and chlamydial infection rates were evaluated for 1 year. The clinical cure rates were 35% 2 months after initial treatment, 16% at 8 months (during the annual autumn epidemic of purulent conjunctivitis), and 47% at 1 year. The pretreatment chlamydial infection rate of 33% (determined by direct immunofluorescence) decreased to 5% at 2 months and was 9% at 12 months. There were no significant clinical or laboratory differences among the four treatment groups. Thus, 1-6 doses of azithromycin were equivalent to 30 days of topical oxytetracycline/polymyxin ointment and may offer an effective alternative means of controlling endemic trachoma.
Two-monoclonal-antibody sandwich-type assay for thyrotropin, with use of an avidin-biotin separation technique. (1986)

We have developed a sensitive, specific, noncompetitive, sandwich-type radioimmunoassay for human thyrotropin (hTSH), which can be performed in 30 min. The assay involves two monoclonal antibodies, selected for high affinity and specificity and also for reaction against antigenic sites on hTSH that are distal from each other. One of these antibodies is labeled with 125I; the other is conjugated covalently to biotin. Polystyrene beads were also conjugated covalently to biotin. After conjugation, the beads were incubated with avidin. These beads represent a rapid, simple method for separating hTSH-bound antibody from free antibody. The biotin-antibody-hTSH-125I-labeled antibody complexes bind to the beads and hTSH concentration is directly related to counts per minute. This assay can detect hTSH at a concentration of 0.06 milli-unit/L in serum.
A framework for building unobtrusive disk maintenance applications (2018)

Abstract: "This paper describes a programming model and system support for clean construction of disk maintenance applications. Such applications expose the disk activity to be done, and then process completed requests as they are reported. The system ensures that these applications make steady forward progress without competing for disk access with a system's primary applications. It opportunistically completes maintenance requests by using disk idle time and free-block scheduling. In this paper, three disk maintenance applications (backup, write-back cache destaging, and disk layout reorganization) are adapted to the system support and evaluated on a FreeBSD implementation. All are shown to successfully execute in busy systems with minimal (e.g., <2%) impact on foreground disk performance. In fact, by modifying FreeBSD's cache to write dirty blocks for free, the average read cache miss response time is decreased by 15-30%."
Comparison of conventional and virtual simulation for radiation treatment planning of malignant lymphoma. (1998)

Virtual simulation based on CT scans for radiation treatment planning of malignant lymphoma gives more information about soft tissue structures than conventional treatment planning. Therefore, it allows a more precise coverage of the target volumes and better shielding of the organs at risk. However, the time required for the whole procedure is increased. This is justified because of the often highly curative intention when treating this group of patients.

A Fast Hole-Filling Method for Triangular Mesh in Additive Repair (2020)

In the triangular meshes obtained in additive repair, it is a challenge to find one single hole-filling method to close all holes and make the filling patches assort with surrounding meshes well with low time complexity, which is mainly caused by the shape complexity and size difference of the various holes, especially in the fields of intelligent manufacturing, 3D measurement, and reverse engineering. Therefore, it is reasonable to adopt different algorithms to fill different types of holes. In this research, a fast hole-filling method for triangular mesh is proposed based on the hole size. First, a group of basic concepts is defined to make them uniform throughout the whole text, followed by the descriptions of hole detection and boundary cleaning. Second, three different algorithms are developed to fill the small-sized, middle-sized, and large-sized holes classified by hole size respectively, which can fill all the detected holes in a fast and proper manner. Finally, two experiments are carried out to verify the efficiency, robustness, and ability to recover the shape of our method. Compared to two state-of-the-art hole-filling methods in the first experiment, the quantitative evaluation results demonstrate that our proposed method is much faster than them with the ability to guarantee the regularity of most filling triangles. The second experiment proves that our method can produce satisfactory filling results by making the filling patches be compatible with surrounding meshes well.
