Homogeneous Cobalt/Vanadium Complexes as Precursors for Functionalized Mixed Oxides in Visible‐Light‐Driven Water Oxidation (2016)

The heterometallic complexes (NH<sub>4</sub> )<sub>2</sub> [Co(H<sub>2</sub> O)<sub>6</sub> ]<sub>2</sub> [V<sub>10</sub> O<sub>28</sub> ]⋅4 H<sub>2</sub> O (1) and (NH<sub>4</sub> )<sub>2</sub> [Co(H<sub>2</sub> O)<sub>5</sub> (β-HAla)]<sub>2</sub> [V<sub>10</sub> O<sub>28</sub> ]⋅4 H<sub>2</sub> O (2) have been synthesized and used for the preparation of mixed oxides as catalysts for water oxidation. Thermal decomposition of 1 and 2 at relatively low temperatures (<500 °C) leads to the formation of the solid mixed oxides CoV<sub>2</sub> O<sub>6</sub> /V<sub>2</sub> O<sub>5</sub> (3) and Co<sub>2</sub> V<sub>2</sub> O<sub>7</sub> /V<sub>2</sub> O<sub>5</sub> (4). The complexes (1, 2) and heterogeneous materials (3, 4) act as catalysts for photoinduced water oxidation. A modification of the thermal decomposition procedure allowed the deposition of mixed metal oxides (MMO) on a mesoporous TiO<sub>2</sub> film. The electrodes containing Co/V MMOs in TiO<sub>2</sub> films were used for electrocatalytic water oxidation and showed good stability and sustained anodic currents of about 5 mA cm<sup>-2</sup> at 1.72 V versus relative hydrogen electrode (RHE). This method of functionalizing TiO<sub>2</sub> films with MMOs at relatively low temperatures (<500 °C) can be used to produce other oxides with different functionality for applications in, for example, artificial photosynthesis.
Chronic Daily Headache in U.S. Soldiers After Concussion (2012)

The prevalence of CDH in returning U.S. soldiers after a deployment-related concussion is 20%, or 4- to 5-fold higher than that seen in the general U.S. population. CDH following a concussion usually resembles chronic migraine and is associated with onset of headaches within the first week after concussion. The mechanism and number of concussions are not specifically associated with CDH as compared to episodic headache. In contrast, PTSD symptoms are strongly associated with CDH, suggesting that traumatic stress may be an important mediator of headache chronification. These findings justify future studies examining strategies to prevent and treat CDH in military service members following a concussive injury.
Application of Capacitive Coupling to the Design of an Absolute-Coordinate Pointing Device (2005)

Capacitive coupling is applied to develop an absolute-coordinate-based interface system for a personal computer (PC). The system consists of a pointing device and a digitizing tablet. The pointing device is a cordless stylus that does not need any power supply. The digitizing tablet is wire-connected to the PC via a serial or universal-serial-bus (USB) port. The technique of capacitive coupling is used to detect both the x and y positions of the tablet and also if any of the stylus buttons is pressed. Measured voltage values and analyses of capacitive coupling signals are given. Experimental results show that the interface system is reliable, and its performance is robust.

Digital transmitters for DVB and DTV (1997)

During the past year specifications for Digital Broadcasting in Europe and the USA have become mature. Field trials of both DTV used in the USA and DVB used in Europe have proven the worth of both systems. Each system, being digital, suffers from the brick wall effect, resulting in a very sharp change from a perfectly received signal to one that is totally unusable when signal levels drop. Managing this effect has brought about changes in traditional transmitter systems from those previously used for analogue transmission. Achieving the amplifier linearity required for digital transmission has also necessitated changes in transmitter design. This paper reviews these changes and discusses their effect on the design of a new solid state transmitter for digital applications.
A Simple Algorithm for the Restoration of Clipped Speech Signal (2007)

This paper deals with the problem of peak clipped speech. Our basic assumption is that the clipped speech is voiced and can be linearly predicted with a high accuracy. The coefficients of linear prediction are computed using two different algorithms: a least square direct method and a recursive Kalman filter. The speech reconstruction is accomplished using backward prediction
Classroom Demonstrations of Concepts in Molecular Fluorescence (2006)

A multichannel CCD-array spectrophotometer and handheld UV lamp are utilized to acquire and project in real-time the fluorescence emission spectra of quinine, fluorescein, eosin yellow, and rhodamine B. Instrumental concepts of fluorescence are illustrated based on the setup of the demonstration. The emission spectra of the fluorophores are correlated with the visual color of the luminescence. The absorbance and fluorescence emission spectra of quinine in tonic water, along with the Hg source spectrum, are visually compared. This demonstration provides a framework for describing the transitions involved in fluorescence spectroscopy.
T cell receptor diversity in alloreactive responses against HLA‐B27 (B*2705) is limited by multiple‐level restrictions in both α and β chains (1995)

The T cell receptors (TCR) in HLA-B27 (B*2705) alloreactivity were analyzed in cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) from two individuals. Non-random usage was found in V beta, N+D beta, V alpha, and J alpha, but not in J beta segments or N alpha-regions. V beta segments from homology subgroup 4 were predominant and not associated to a particular donor or fine specificity, suggesting involvement in recognizing the HLA-B27 molecule. In contrast, preferential V alpha usage was associated with particular individuals and fine specificities, indicating distinct V beta and V alpha recruitment and contribution to allorecognition. Recurrent N+D beta motifs and J alpha segments, even from different donors, limited junctional diversity, suggesting that CDR3 usage was determined by the alloantigenic epitope independently of individuals. TCR were selected differently at various levels, as indicated by the following findings. Four clonotypes with similar fine specificity had identical beta and unrelated alpha chains. Similar alpha were associated with unrelated beta chains, and vice versa. CTL using V beta subgroup 4 did not globally show concomitant predominance of other TCR elements. V alpha 7, one of the preferred V alpha segments, was always associated with V beta subgroups other than 4. Sometimes, a TCR showed homology in elements of one chain to a second TCR or group of TCR, and to another in the other chain. These results are best explained by differential selection of TCR elements by different epitopes, providing a key to the inner structure of allospecific TCR repertoires.
Grover algorithm with zero theoretical failure rate (2001)

In a standard Grover's algorithm for quantum searching, the probability of finding the marked item is not exactly 1. In this paper we present a modified version of Grover's algorithm that searches a marked state with full successful rate. The modification is done by replacing the phase inversion by phase rotation through angle $\ensuremath{\varphi}.$ The rotation angle is given analytically to be $\ensuremath{\varphi}=2\mathrm{arcsin}(\mathrm{sin}[\ensuremath{\pi}/(4J+6)]/\mathrm{sin}\ensuremath{\beta}),$ where $\mathrm{sin}\ensuremath{\beta}=1/\sqrt{N},$ N is the number of items in the database, and J is any integer equal to or greater than the integer part of $[(\ensuremath{\pi}/2)\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\beta}]/(2\ensuremath{\beta}).$ Upon measurement at the $(J+1)\mathrm{th}$ iteration, the marked state is obtained with certainty.
Antigenic variants of J subgroup avian leukosis virus: sequence analysis reveals multiple changes in the env gene. (1998)

HPRS-103, the prototype of avian leukosis virus (ALV) subgroup J, was isolated in 1989 from meat-type chickens from commercial flocks where it induces myelocytic myeloid leukosis (ML). The HPRS-103 env gene differs considerably from other ALV subgroups but shows high identity (75-97%) to env-like sequences of the different members of the EAV family of endogenous avian retroviruses. Recently, we have isolated several viruses related to HPRS-103 from cases of ML. Although these isolates showed properties of ALV subgroup J, the majority of them resisted neutralization by HPRS-103-specific serum, suggesting antigenic variation. The nucleotide sequence of the env gene of the variant viruses showed several substitutions resulting in amino acid changes especially clustered in the variable regions hr1, hr2 and vr3. Analysis of the data suggests that selection pressure, probably from the immune response, is driving the antigenic variation among the isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences showed the evolutionary relationships of the isolates with HPRS-103 and the EAV family of endogenous avian retroviruses. The epidemiological significance of the antigenic variation and the emergence of variant viruses are discussed.
A Two-Dimensional Gravity Interpretation of a Continental Margin Setting (1977)

The efficacy of two dimensional gravity interpretation techniques in investigations of crustal structure at continental margins is contentious and difficult to quantify. It is generally assumed that gravity analyses can provide information on not only the density distribution within the crust and uppermost mantle, but also on isostatic mechanisms and crustal strength.
Nonconvulsive status epilepticus and Creutzfeldt–Jakob-like EEG changes in a case of lithium toxicity (2014)

We report a case of a 63-year-old lady with bipolar affective disorder on lithium who was brought to our emergency center in a comatose state. Neurologically, the patient was comatose and had generalized hypotonia and hyporeflexia. Lithium toxicity was considered. Laboratory examinations revealed leukocytosis, normal blood sugar, blood level of lithium was 4.7 mEq/L and she had renal dysfunction. Cerebrospinal fluid examination and cranial computerized tomography were unremarkable. Blood lithium level was 4.7 mEq/L. Hemodialysis was initiated. However, in spite of dialysis and decreasing lithium levels, the patient remained unconscious. A possibility of nonconvulsive status epilepticus was considered; hence, EEG was advised. The EEG demonstrated bihemispheric slowing (4- to 5-Hz theta range) with bilateral periodic triphasic waves of 1- to 2-Hz frequency, similar to the EEG changes seen in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. She was started on lorazepam. Her sensorium improved gradually, which correlated with the decline in blood lithium levels. A normal background alpha rhythm on EEG was ensured prior to discharge. At discharge, clinically, she had recovered completely, with no apparent neurological deficit or cognitive impairment. This case highlights the importance of therapeutic drug-level monitoring of lithium, especially where toxicity is suspected, and the important role electroencephalography plays in diagnosing NCSE and its management.
Pornography Detection Using Support Vector Machine (2003)

As Internet grows quickly, pornography, which is often printed into a small quantity of publication in the past, becomes one of the highly distributed information over Internet. However, pornography may be harmful to children, and may affect the efficiency of workers. In this paper, we design an easy scheme for detecting pornography. We exploit primitive information from pornography and use this knowledge for determining whether a given photo belongs to pornography or not. In the beginning, we extract skin region from photos, and find out the correlation in skin region and non-skin region. Then, we use these correlations as the input of support vector machine (SVM), an excellent tool for classification with learning abilities. After a period of training SVM model, we achieved about 75% of accuracy, 35% of false alarm rate, and only 14% of mis-detection rate. Moreover, we also provide a simple tool based on our scheme.
Bakuchiol, an antibacterial component of<i>Psoralidium tenuiflorum</i> (2009)

Bioactivity guided fractionation of an EtOAc extract from Psoralidium tenuiflorum (Pursh) Rydb. (family : Fabaceae) yielded the known compound bakuchiol as a racemic mixture. This compound was purified by liquid-liquid partitioning and chromatography followed by NMR and GCMS characterisation. This compound exhibited Staphylococcus epidermidis cytotoxicity. COSY and HETCOR spectra of the isolated bakuchiol indicated two disagreements with previously reported NMR structural assignments; reassignments are described herein. Long-term storage of bakuchiol resulted in degradation to 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, which was purified and characterised.
The Etiology of Colon Cancer (1975)

Since the major leads to the etiology of cancer come from epidemiology, the epidemiology of colon cancer is reviewed at some length. From this, certain leads to the etiology of colon cancer emerge, principally the role of diet; an attempt is made to unravel the conflicting reports on the role of diet in colon cancer, and this leads into the two major postulates on this disease - the fiber theory of Burkitt and the steroid fat theory of myself and Wynder. These will be discussed and compared in detail. Most of the work on colon cancer is with animals; this will be reviewed and discussed mainly in terms of its relevance to human cancer rather than to veterinary medicine. The review will be concluded with a summary of the current situation and an indication of the reviewer's views on the most likely directions of advance in the near future.There is strong evidence to link the incidence of colon cancer to the fecal concentration of bile acids; there is also evidence to incriminate the NDH clostridia. In the absence of any alternative, most research into the etiology of colon cancer has centered on the role of gut bacteria and bile acids, and both major theories on the etiology of the disease accept a major role for these two factors.The fiber theory attempts to relate the incidence of the disease to the amount of dietary fiber by suggesting that the transit time of material through the gut is of paramount importance. The fat theory suggests that the concentration of bile acids in the large intestine is the most important factor.The weight of evidence is strongly in favor of the fat theory, but this may be due in part to the fact that much of the experimental evidence was gathered in studies which had such a link as their basic premise. The epidemiological data are also strongly in favor of the Fat theory.
Optical-domain mode coupling compensation for mode division multiplexing systems (2014)

In this paper we introduce a novel method for mode-coupling compensation in MDM systems based on the adaptive optics. This approach is intended to minimize significantly the computational complexity required for digital signal processing, because only computation of diffraction optical element transmission function is performed and no real time signal processing is required to compensate for intermodal interference. Therefore, existing challenges of MIMO MDM systems, such as DSP performance limits and increasing power consumption, might be overcome.
STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION IN A PATIENT WITH LATE-ONSET NEMALINE MYOPATHY AND GAMMOPATHY (2008)

<h3>Purpose</h3> Flow disruption with the WEB-DL device has been used safely for the treatment of wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms. The stability of aneurysm occlusion after this treatment was evaluated in short- and midterm, but not in long-term. This retrospective multicenter European study is the continuation of an already published series dealing with short-and midterm anatomical results and analyzes long-term data in patients treated with WEB-DL. <h3>Methods</h3> Twelve European neurointerventional centers initially participated to the study. In addition to data collected for the initial publication, images obtained at long-term follow-up were collected and independently analyzed by the same experienced interventional neuroradiologist. <h3>Results</h3> Out of the initial 45 patients, 26 (20 females and 6 males) aged 35 to 73 years (mean: 55.2 +/- 10.6 years; median: 55.5 years) harboring 26 aneurysms treated with the WEB-DL device had long-term follow-up (median: 27.4 months). Three out of 26 patients (11.5%) were retreated between short- and midterm follow-up and none between mid- and long-term. Long-term aneurysm occlusion in the 19 patients treated with WEB only and not retreated during follow-up was complete occlusion in 13/19 patients (68.4%) including aneurysms with opacification of the proximal recess (9/19 patients, 47.4%), neck remnant in 3/19 patients (15.8%), and aneurysm remnant in 3/19 patients (15.8%). In all patients (100.0%), aneurysm occlusion was stable between midterm and long-term follow-up. <h3>Conclusions</h3> The results suggest that WEB treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms offers long-term stable occlusion. <h3>Disclosures</h3> L.

Symmetry determination following structure solution in<i>P</i>1 (2008)

A new method for space-group determination is described. It is based on a symmetry analysis of the structure-factor phases resulting from a structure solution in space group P 1. The output of the symmetry analysis is a list of all symmetry operations compatible with the lattice. Each symmetry operation is assigned a symmetry agreement factor that is used to select the symmetry operations that are the elements of the space group of the structure. On the basis of the list of the selected operations the complete space group of the structure is constructed. The method is independent of the number of dimensions, and can also be used in solution of aperiodic structures. A number of cases are described where this method is particularly advantageous compared with the traditional symmetry analysis.
Significance and meaning of neurological signs in schizophrenia (1988)

The authors review studies of abnormal signs on clinical neurological examination of schizophrenic patients. In spite of a number of methodologic limitations, the cumulative evidence strongly argues that there are more neurological signs in schizophrenic patients than in nonpsychiatric control subjects. Although less consistent, there is considerable evidence of more neurological signs in schizophrenic patients than in patients with affective disorders or with mixed, nonpsychotic disorders. The existing literature suggests several preliminary hypotheses with respect to neuroanatomical localization of neurological signs, subtyping of schizophrenia, and utility of studies of relatives at high risk and family history studies. Directions for future research in these areas are described.
Differential expression of MHC class II molecules by microglia and neoplastic astroglia: relevance for the escape of astrocytoma cells from immune surveillance (1998)

There is increasing evidence that microglia serve as antigen presenters in the human CNS. Although the occurrence of MHC class II immunoreactive cells has been reported in astrocytic gliomas, the relative contribution of microglia to this cell population has not been studied in detail. Using computer-assisted image analysis, we have investigated the expression of MHC class II molecules and of the microglia/macrophage markers Ki-MIP, RCA-1, KP1 and iba1, in 97 astrocytic gliomas comprising all WHO grades to answer the question whether there is a correlation between tumour grade and the number of MHC class II positive microglia/macrophage profiles. Microglia expressing MHC class II were common in astrocytomas and anaplastic astrocytomas but rare in pilocytic tumours although there was significant variation within each group. MHC class II immunoreactivity was reduced in highly cellular areas of glioblastomas where large numbers of cells expressing macrophage markers were still present. Thus, there was no simple relationship between tumour grade and microglial/macrophage MHC class II expression. In addition, up to 55% of astrocytic gliomas contained MHC class II immunoreactive tumour cells. Microglia but not tumour cells were found to express the BB1/B7 costimulator. We conclude that microglia in astrocytic gliomas are well equipped to function as antigen presenting cells. Yet, neoplastic astroglia appear to acquire the capacity to downregulate microglial MHC class II expression and, at the same time, may induce T-cell clonal anergy through aberrant expression of MHC class II molecules.
Particle injection into the wave acceleration phase due to nonlinear wake wave breaking (1998)

We present analytical results and computer simulations of the nonlinear evolution of wake field waves in inhomogeneous plasmas. The wake wave break that occurs due to the inhomogeneity of the Langmuir frequency makes it possible to inject electrons into the acceleration phase of the wave. Particle-in-cell simulations show that stable beams of energetic electrons are formed. These beams are well bunched in coordinate and velocity space and contain a considerable fraction of the pulse energy
The Development of an Indoor Mobility Course for the Evaluation of Electronic Mobility Aids for Persons Who Are Visually Impaired (2012)

Based upon evidence from literature an indoor mobility course has been developed, which was sensitive to assess differences in mobility incidents and obstacle detection when using an EMA compared to the regular mobility aid. Experts' opinion confirmed its face and content validity.
