Possible Mechanisms Behind the Differential Effects of Soy Protein and Casein Feedings on Colon Cancer Biomarkers in the Rat (2005)

In the present studies, several hypotheses were tested to explain previously reported differential effects of soy and casein on colon cancer biomarkers like cell proliferation, fecal fat, fecal bile acid, alkaline phosphatase, and magnesium excretion in rats. In Study 1, the effect of methionine, a limiting amino acid in soy protein and an amino acid that is thought to have a marked effect on colonic cell proliferation, was tested. It was concluded that methionine up to 1% in the diet had no effect on cell proliferation, using the 3H-thymidine assay. The same study revealed that fecal alkaline phosphatase excretion is a good marker for colonic epithelial damage and fecal magnesium excretion is not. In Study 2, the hypothesis was tested that soy fractions enriched with isoflavones and saponins may increase fat excretion and so influence colonic cell proliferation in rats. It was indeed shown that soy protein isolate and an ethanolic extract from soy protein isolate slightly increased fecal fat excretion (up to 1.7-fold). However, fecal water bile acid and free fatty acid concentrations were decreased after feeding soy protein-based diets compared with casein, and no difference in fecal alkaline phosphatase excretion was observed. In Study 3, the lytic potential of soy saponins and the interaction between saponins and some lytic bile acids were tested in vitro. Data suggest a protective effect from soy saponins by reducing lytic activity of cholic acid. The overall conclusion is that soy protein compared with casein influences several colon cancer risk parameters, indicating a more protective rather than a stimulating effect on colon cancer risk.
Wound healing activity of Thumari oil (Securinega leucopyrus) in the management of Stanagatvrana (Breast wound) – A single case study (2018)

Stana Vidradhi is described by Aacharya Sushruta in Nidana sthana 10th chapter and Bhedan Chikitsa. Stana Vidradhi can be co-related with breast abscess which is commonly seen in lactating women. Bacteria enter the breast during baby sucking through the cracked nipple and breast abscess occurs. Thumari is used in rural area for boils, wound and cuts which is mentioned in textbook plants of Saurashtra. In this case study, a 21 years lactating female patient was diagnosed as a left side breast abscess. So under short GA incision, drainage and debridement of necrosed tissue was done. A big post operative wound (12cm x 13cm x 6cm) was created due to excision of involved large breast tissue. Wound was painful (VAS-6) pus discharge with unhealthy tissue. So it was treated with local application of conventional medicament but not responding. So regular dressing was started with innovative Ayurved formulation Thumari oil once in day for 2 months. In first week after of dressing started with Thumari oil patient reported relief in pain (VAS-2) was found without analgesics. So dressing continue with Thumari oil and on 2nd week all slough and necrosed tissue was slough out and wound became clean with healthy granulation tissue. Wound contraction was started after 3rd week and wound reduced remarkable (4cm x 5cm x 1cm) on sixth week. Finally wound was healed completely after 2 month with minimum scar. The additional property of this oil is Savarnikaran (normal skin texture). Study concluded that post operative big breast wound can be managed with local application of Thumari oil (Securinega leucopyrus).
Multi-media Document Translation: ODA and the EXPRES Project (1990)

As part of the NSF's EXPRES project, the authors investigated ways to interchange multi-media documents among diverse systems. Their investigations led to an analysis and implementation of multi-media document format translation in general, and of the ODA standard in particular. ODA, Office Document Architecture, is a new ISO and CCITT international standard for representing multi- media documents. The results of their investigations are presented in this book. The book contains overview information about multi-media document architecture and formats, an introduction to ODA, detailed technical specifications on how to use ODA for multi-media document format translation, and the authors' experiences in implementing and using ODA. The book also contains a complete user manual for the authors' publically available ODA software: tool kits for manipulating ODA and raster formats, tools for examining ODA documents and sample translators between ODA and several other multi-media formats. This book provides comprehensive information about ODA for a large audience. Planners can get basic information about using ODA for interoperation of multi-media systems. Researchers receive detailed discussions about the advantages and problems of using ODA for document representation, format translation and archival storage. System designers can use the technical descriptions of translators and tools in specifying their own. System builders can easily obtain the software as a basis for prototyping and investigating their own ODA implementations.
Ionic basis for intrinsic 40 Hz neuronal oscillations (1993)

We present a biophysical model of a slowly inactivating potassium ion current IKS, based on recent voltage-clamp data from layer V pyramidal neurons in the cat sensorimotor cortex and show that the interplay between a persistent sodium current INaP and IKS is able to produce intrinsic membrane potential oscillations in the 10- to 50-frequency range. A most notable characteristic of such rhythmicity is what may be termed mixed-mode bursting, where clusters of action potentials alternate in time with epochs of small subthreshold oscillations.

Therapeutic use of lovastatin in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. (1994)

The present review discusses the mechanism of action, efficacy, safety profile, and potential uses of lovastatin in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Data on the efficacy of lovastatin are evaluated in different patient populations; also, the efficacy of this agent in the long-term treatment of patients followed by the author is presented. No new safety concerns have emerged during long-term treatment of selected patients with lovastatin, and, in compliant patients, hypolipidemic effects are maintained during continuous treatment with therapy that exceeds 5 years. On the basis of available data, lovastatin should be regarded as one of the drugs of first choice in the treatment of adult patients with hypercholesterolemia and increased plasma concentrations of low-density lipoproteins.

Potassium Compounds (2014)

Potassium as a mineral is essential for life. As a consequence, potassium compounds or potash have been regarded as articles of commerce. Potash denotes an impure form of potassium carbonate mixed with other potassium salts. Potash manufacture was the first chemical industry in North America. Potash is an essential fertilizer nutrient that cannot be substituted. Canada leads the word in reserves and production of potash. Potassium chloride or muriate potash (MOP) is the world's most commonly used potash. It is the basis for the manufacture of most potassium salts. Potassium chloride is produced mostly from solid ores in underground deposits. Potassium sulfate is a well‐established source of sulfur and as a double salt is used in fertilizers for crops sensitive to chloride. Other compounds of potassium include, eg,: acetate used in glass making, dehydrating agents; bromide is used in photography and engraving; carbonate is used in making glass for TVs.; bicarbonate is used in foods and medicine; formates used in preparation of chemicals, agricultural products and soaps; iodide used in salts; nitrate used in fertilizer and fireworks; phosphates used in detergents; acid tartrate is used in baking powders and wine. The fertilizer industry uses 85% of U.S. potash sales. Potash mining and refining operations in the U.S. are strictly regulated. Within cells, potassium serves the critical role as counterion for various carboxylates, phosphates and stabilizes macromolecular structures.
Computer Detection of Freehand Forgeries (1977)

This paper deals with the detection of freehand forgeries of signatures on bank checks. The detection process makes use of size ratio and slant features derived from Eden's kinematic stroke model for handwriting, which was modified to make it applicable to prewritten material. The features are measured for a real signature by a process involving automatic thresholding, to extract the signature from the background; analysis of projections, to segment the signature into vertical zones; detection of tall letters, to segment it into horizontal zones; and identification of the tall letters with respect to the (assumed known) spelling of the signature. Statistical assumptions are made regarding the expected variation in feature values among different writers and for a single writer. Tests on a small data base led to verification of these assumptions and to successful forgery detection.
Air-regulation of a siphon spillway (1984)

The 20 km long raw water canal between Vaal Dam and Zuikerbosch discharges into a large terminal reservoir which acts as a forebay for the Rand Water Board treatment plant and high-lift pumping station. A spillway was required for the reservoir to avoid overtopping of the embankments following a trip-out of the pumping station due to power failure. As an alternative to the conventional black-water siphon with its large discharges and hunting propensities, an air-regulated, smooth-discharge, white-water siphon spillway was chosen. The paper is concerned with its design and model-testing. 
Planning and model-testing revealed a number of design problems. Care was needed in the design of the de-aeration mechanism in the siphon barrel and the downstream stilling basin to ensure that the siphon primed properly. On the upstream side the elevation and shape of the lip of the siphon had to be such that the air flow into the siphon was uniform to avoid hunting.The uniform inflow of air was upset by the draw-down of the water surface associated with the increase in velocity head at the siphon entrance, leading to instability in this region. Extensive modeling was needed to remedy the problem. 
Full-scale tests of the siphon spillway at Zuikerbosch showed that although the de-aeration mechanism and stilling basin operated satisfactorily, the problem of upstream surging had not been fully resolved.
Die 20 km lang rouwater kanaal tussen Vaaldam en Zuikerbosch vloei uit in 'n groot eindreservoir wat as voorbak dien vir die Randwaterraad se suiweringswerke en hoe-druk pompstasles. 'n Oorloop is vir die reservoir benodig om oorstroming van die kanaalwalle te verhoed indien die pompe afskakel as gevolg van 'n kragonderbreking. 'n Lug-gereguleerde wit-water heweloorloop is gekies as 'n alternatief tot die konvensionele swart-water hewel met sy neiging tot groot uitvloei en swewing. Hierdie referaat behandel die ontwerp en modeltoetsing van eersgenoemde metode. 
Die beplanning en modeltoetsing het 'n aantal ontwerpprobleme aan die lig gebring. Aandag moes geskenk word aan die ontwerp van die ontlugtingsmeganisme in die hewelbuis en die stroomaf stilbak om te verseker dat die hewel voldoende voorgevoer word. Die hoogte en vorm van die hewellip aan die stroomopkant moes sodanig wees dat die lugvloei eenvormig in die hewel is om swewing te verhoed. Die eenvormige invloei van lug is versteur deur die aftrek van die watervlak wat gepaard gaan met die toename in snelheidsdrukhoogte by die hewelingang wat lei tot onstabiliteit in hierdie gebied. Uitgebrilde modeltoetse was nodig om die probleem te oorbrug. 
Volskaalse toets van die heweloorloop by Zuikerbosch het getoon dat alhoewel die ontlugtingsmeganisme en stilbak bevredigend funksioneer, is die probleem met stroomop stuwing nog nie bevredigend opgelos nie.
Optically initialized robust valley-polarized holes in monolayer WSe2 (2015)

A robust valley polarization is a key prerequisite for exploiting valley pseudospin to carry information in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics. Although monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides with inherent spin-valley coupling offer a unique platform to develop such valleytronic devices, the anticipated long-lived valley pseudospin has not been observed yet. Here we demonstrate that robust valley-polarized holes in monolayer WSe2 can be initialized by optical pumping. Using time-resolved Kerr rotation spectroscopy, we observe a long-lived valley polarization for positive trion with a lifetime approaching 1 ns at low temperatures, which is much longer than the trion recombination lifetime (∼10-20 ps). The long-lived valley polarization arises from the transfer of valley pseudospin from photocarriers to resident holes in a specific valley. The optically initialized valley pseudospin of holes remains robust even at room temperature, which opens up the possibility to realize room-temperature valleytronics based on transition metal dichalcogenides.
Laser Light Prevents Apoptosis on Cho K-1 Cell Line (2003)

The results of the present study demonstrate that LLLT, in addition to providing positive biomodulation, acts in the re-establishment of cellular homeostasis when the cells are maintained under the condition of nutritional stress; it also prevents apoptosis in CHO K-1 cells.

III-nitrides for energy production: photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications (2013)

In this review article, we discuss the recent advances in the III-nitrides, in particular GaN and its ternary alloys, for photovoltaic and thermoelectric devices. The advantages of using the III-nitrides for electronic and optoelectronic applications are well understood and III-nitride devices are already seen in many consumer based products. Recently, an emerging potential of III-nitrides for energy harvesting has been investigated due to its unique materials properties that include a tunable direct band gap, mechanical and thermal stability at high temperatures and excellent electronic transport properties. This review will show that the potential of using the III-nitrides for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications will be realized as the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic defects on the photovoltaic and thermoelectric properties are better understood.
Binocular visual training to promote recovery from monocular deprivation (2015)

Abnormal early visual experience often leads to poor vision, a condition called amblyopia. Two recent approaches to treating amblyopia include binocular therapies and intensive visual training. These reflect the emerging view that amblyopia is a binocular deficit caused by increased neural noise and poor signal-in-noise integration. Most perceptual learning studies have used monocular training; however, a recent study has shown that binocular training is effective for improving acuity in adult human amblyopes. We used an animal model of amblyopia, based on monocular deprivation, to compare the effect of binocular training either during or after the critical period for ocular dominance plasticity (early binocular training vs. late binocular training). We used a high-contrast, orientation-in-noise stimulus to drive the visual cortex because neurophysiological findings suggest that binocular training may allow the nondeprived eye to teach the deprived eye's circuits to function. We found that both early and late binocular training promoted good visual recovery. Surprisingly, we found that monocular deprivation caused a permanent deficit in the vision of both eyes, which became evident only as a sleeper effect following many weeks of visual training.
Lyman-α Fluorescence from the Photodissociation of H2 (1970)

Photodissociation and fluorescence cross sections for H2 have been measured from 860 to 700 Å by observing the Lyman-α photons emitted at 90° to an incident photon beam. The photodissociation quantum efficiency was found to be unity from 850 Å to the photoionization threshold at 804 Å and about 10% at shorter wavelengths. By observing the fluorescence radiation as a function of decreasing pressure, it was determined that most of the excited H atoms were formed in the metastable 2s state and that the Lyman-α emission results primarily from collisional quenching. The ratio of the collisional cross section with and without Lyman-α emission was measured for different relative velocities and was found to increase appreciably with increasing velocity.
Clinical utility of the modified Glasgow prognostic score in lung cancer: A meta-analysis (2017)

Our findings indicate that mGPS may have prognostic value in lung cancer, as we detected a significant association between elevated mGPS and poorer OS. The association between mGPS and poorer OS was non-significant among patients undergoing surgery, which may be attributable to lower tumor load. However, further studies are warranted to draw firm conclusions.
Ibn al-Maḥrūmah’s Notes on Ibn Kammūnah’s Examination of the Three Religions (2015)

Abstract This chapter treats the notes (al-ḥawāshī) written by one Ibn al-Maḥrūmah in the fourteenth century, written as glosses to the Tanqīḥ al-abḥāth li-l-milal al-thalāth (An Overview of Investigations into the Views of the Three Faiths) by thirteenth-century Baghdādī Jew Ibn Kammūnah. This well-known latter text was a comparison of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, probably written in response to the anti-Jewish polemic Ifḥām al-yahūd (Silencing the Jews) by the twelfth-century convert from Judaism to Islam Samawʾal al-Maghribī. In his notes, written only for the sections on Judaism and Christianity, Ibn al-Maḥrūmah discusses in detail the Islamic notion of abrogation, focusing in particular on the abrogation of the sharīʿah (Law) of Moses. By adopting Islamic views of Judaism such as those espoused by Samawʾal al-Maghribī and by attacking and rejecting Ibn Kammūnah’s arguments, Ibn al-Maḥrūmah is able to make use of the Muslim belief in the abrogation of Mosaic law as an implicit support for Christian claims of supersession. Griffith argues that Ibn al-Maḥrūmah’s discussion shows signs of an “Islamicization of Christian apologetics,” which makes use of Islamic beliefs and anti-Jewish polemic (based largely on exegetical arguments) to support his own views on Judaism.
The collision security of Tandem-DM in the ideal cipher model. (2010)

Abstract. We prove that Tandem-DM, one of the two “classical ” schemes for turning a blockcipher of 2n-bit key into a double block length hash function, has birthday-type collision resistance in the ideal cipher model. A collision resistance analysis for Tandem-DM achieving a similar birthday-type bound was already proposed by Fleischmann, Gorski and Lucks at FSE 2009 [3]. As we detail, however, the latter analysis is wrong, thus leaving the collision resistance of Tandem-DM as an open problem until now. 1
