Expression and CpG methylation of the insulin-like growth factor II gene in human smooth muscle tumors. (1992)

Previously we have shown that expression of the insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) gene in 36 normal smooth muscle tissues (myometria) and 26 benign smooth muscle tumors (leiomyomas) was detectable by Northern blot analysis but that the RNA levels were low. In 9 of 20 malignant smooth muscle tumors (leiomyosarcomas) IGF-II gene expression was also low or absent, while in 11 of 20 the IGF-II gene was abundantly expressed. In 32 of these tissues we have now studied the DNA methylation state of the IGF-II gene. For the analysis of overall methylation of the gene the restriction endonucleases HpaII and MspI were used. In normal smooth muscle and in leiomyomas the IGF-II gene appeared to be methylated. In leiomyosarcomas with low IGF-II gene expression the DNA was partly demethylated. In leiomyosarcomas with abundant IGF-II gene expression overall methylation of the DNA tended to be low. In addition, we have studied the methylation state of one particular CpG site in the IGF-II gene with the restriction endonuclease AvaII. The results of the latter analysis confirm the analysis with HpaII and MspI. In conclusion, in malignant smooth muscle tumors the data indicate an inverse correlation between CpG methylation and expression of the IGF-II gene.
Correction of the Amino Acid Sequence of Calf Liver Microsomal Cytochrome b5 (1969)

Abstract Reinvestigation of the amino acid sequence of calf liver microsomal cytochrome b5 revealed the presence of an additional nonapeptide. The position of this hydrophobic peptide in the sequence is distal to the lysine Residue 19.
A new class of highly reactive acrylic monomers, 2. Light‐induced copolymerization with difunctional oligomers (1991)

Abstract Acrylic monomers containing a cyclic carbonate group in their structural unit have been shown to copolymerize very rapidly and extensively with urethane and phenoxy oligomers having two acrylic functional end groups. With the most reactive resin, 90% conversion was reached within 20 ms of UV exposure in the presence of air. The kinetics of these ultrafast polymerizations was studied by infrared spectroscopy and their actual profiles were recorded in real time by RTIR spectroscopy. The rate of polymerization and the amount of residual unsaturation were determined for the three monomers studied, and compared to the performance of the mono‐, diand triacrylates commonly used as reactive diluents in UV‐curable systems. Quantum yield measurements indicate a very efficient propagation reaction, with kinetic chain lengths in the order of 10 4 mol per initiating radical, even in the presence of air. The crosslinked polymers obtained with these new monomers exhibit both a great hardness and a high flexibility, together with a good resistance to organic solvents, chemicals and UV radiation, which makes them well suited for applications as protective coatings.
Influence of Talc Dose on Extrapleural Talc Dissemination after Talc Pleurodesis (2003)

This study was designed to ascertain, in a rabbit model, extrapleural talc deposition and the related inflammatory response after talc slurry pleurodesis with two clinical doses, 200 and 50 mg/kg. Histopathologic evaluations revealed that whereas numerous rabbits receiving a high dose had talc in the ipsilateral (70%) and contralateral (55%) lung, mediastinum (90%), pericardium (30%), and liver (25%), a small number of animals treated with a low dose showed talc in the ipsilateral lung (10%) and mediastinum (20%) and none in the contralateral lung, pericardium, or liver. Hematologic and immunocytochemical analyses showed that a systemic inflammatory response develops shortly after pleurodesis with a high talc dose involving massive accumulation of neutrophils and macrophages in lung tissue. Zymography also revealed that the pulmonary expression of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 was up-regulated in both lungs in a dose-dependent manner soon after talc instillation. Furthermore, microscopic examination of lung specimens revealed that the higher the dose of talc, the greater the development of both fibrotic visceral pleural thickening and foreign-body granulomas. These findings show pleurodesis with a high talc dose to be associated with an increased risk of extrapleural talc deposition, which may originate undesirable acute and chronic inflammatory responses.
An AIE-active boron-difluoride complex: multi-stimuli-responsive fluorescence and application in data security protection (2014)

A novel AIE-active boron-difluoride complex (PTZ) was synthesized which exhibits multi-stimuli responsive characteristics. Its colours and emissions can be switched by mechanical grinding, organic solvent vapours and acid/base vapours. This complex can be utilized in data encryption and decryption based on the protonation-deprotonation effect.
Determination of Pore Size in Mesoporous Thin Films from the Annihilation Lifetime of Positronium (2001)

An existing model that relates the annihilation lifetime of positronium trapped in subnanometer pores to the average size of the pores is extended to account for positronium in any size pore and at any temperature. This extension enables the use of positronium annihilation lifetime spectroscopy in characterizing nanoporous and mesoporous materials, in particular thin insulating films where the introduction of porosity is crucial to achieving a low dielectric constant, K. Detailed results of the model calculations are presented along with extensive experimental results to systematically check the lifetime vs pore size calibration in a variety of low-K materials over a wide range of pore sizes.
Effect of reinforcement stiffness on response of back-to-back MSE wall upon infiltration (2021)

Back-to-back mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls are being widely utilized as bridge abutments and highway ramps, considering their cost effectiveness and ease of construction. Though high quality well-graded granular fill is the most appropriate backfill material, owing to its scarcity, locally available low-quality soils are often used as backfill. Nevertheless, numerous failure cases of such walls with low-quality soil are reported, especially subsequent to rainwater infiltration. The stiffness of reinforcement is a key parameter affecting the overall behaviour of MSE walls. The present study investigates the influence of reinforcement stiffness on the response of select fill, marginal fill, and hybrid-fill back-to-back MSE walls using a finite element (FE) based approach. Results show that stiffness of reinforcement has a significant effect on the overall performance of marginal fill wall upon rainfall infiltration. Specifically, with the increase of reinforcement stiffness, the infiltration-induced facing displacement decreases and reinforcement tension increases. However, the performance of select fill and hybrid-fill walls following rainfall infiltration was found to be satisfactory even with low stiffness reinforcements, and further improvement with increase of reinforcement stiffness was insignificant. The reduction of safety factors during infiltration was shown to be independent of reinforcement stiffness for all wall types.

Studies on Two Members of the Liceales With a Description of the Life Cycle of Licea Biloris (1966)

Licea biforis was first described in 1893 by B. Morgan (Lister, 1911), and later by Lister (1911), Fullmer (1921), Macbride (1922), Hagelstein (1944), and Martin (1949). Distribution of the species as given by Hagelstein (1944) is: Iowa, Kansas, New York, Ontario, and Pennsylvania. Martin (1949) adds Poland and Eastern Asia, and Macbride (1922) includes Canada. Hagelstein (1944) is of the opinion that L. biforis probably has a much wider distribution than that indicated above, but is overlooked because of its small size and its habitat on dead wood.
Facile Use of Cationic Hydrogel Particles for Surface Modification of Planar Substrates Toward Multifunctional Neural Permissive Surfaces: An in Vitro Investigation (2016)

Synthetic materials such as silicon have been commonly used for neural interfacing applications but are intrinsically noninteractive with neurons. Here, a facile approach has been developed to integrate both chemical and topographical cues to impart neural permissiveness for such materials. The approach simply exploits the basic phenomenon of electrostatically driven adsorption of colloidal particles onto a solid material and applies it to a cationic hydrogel particle system that we have developed recently based on "click" reaction of epoxide and amine. The particle adsorption process can be tuned by varying the adsorption time and the concentration of the original colloidal suspension, both of which directly control the surface densities of the adsorbed hydrogel particles. Using the PC12 cell line and primary cortical neurons derived from chick embryo, we demonstrate that the particle-adsorbed surface readily supports robust cell adhesion and differentiation. Although the extent of neural permissiveness exhibited by such particle-adsorbed surface was comparable to the cationic polyethylenimine-coated control surface, the adsorbed hydrogel particles offer a unique reservoir function to the modified surface that is unparalleled by the control. The successful loading of hydrophobic dye of nile red to the surface adsorbed hydrogel particles indicates that the modified surface not only provides physical support of neurons, but also can be explored in the future to exert localized therapeutic actions favorable for neural interfacing.
Poststructuralism and nursing: uncomfortable bedfellows? (2000)

The benefits and limitations of the application of poststructuralist in nursing research are discussed. The debate concerning the use of poststructuralist theory in feminist research is drawn on to argue a divergence between a deconstructionist poststructuralism and nursing aims. It is argued that there are strong parallels between nursing and social movements such as feminism. The reasons why many feminist and nursing researchers have been attracted to poststructuralist theory are explored, as are the criticisms of poststructuralism as an inadequate, even reactionary theory. It is argued that poststructuralism is useful for examining or deconstructing existing discourse and practice, but incompatible and inadequate for research which aims to develop or change such discourses or practices.
Dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI in the diagnosis and management of breast cancer (2008)

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is an evolving tool for determining breast disease, which benefits from the move to imaging at 3 T. It has major capabilities for the diagnosis, detection and monitoring of malignancy. It benefits from being non-invasive and three-dimensional, allowing visualisation of the extent of disease and its angiogenic properties, visualisation of lesion heterogeneity, detection of changes in angiogenic properties before morphological alterations, and the potential to predict the overall response either before the start of therapy or early during treatment. In addition, DCE-MRI is emerging as a powerful tool for screening high-risk patients and for detecting high-grade ductal carcinoma in situ. However, there are also a number of limitations, including the overlap in enhancement patterns between malignant and benign disease, the failure to resolve microscopic disease particularly in the neoadjuvant setting, and the inconsistent predictive value of the enhancement pattern for clinical outcome. Careful consideration should be given to the technical requirements of individual examinations and the need for automation of post-processing techniques to appropriately handle the growing volume of data acquired. Research continues, focusing on the use of higher field strengths with improved spatial and temporal resolution data, improving understanding of the mechanism of contrast enhancement at the cellular level, and developing macromolecular and targeted contrast agents.

A data communications concept for a SATS scenario (2005)

The small aircraft transportation system (SATS) concept envisions doorstop to destination transportation in a safe and timely manner. Data communications are a key component in achieving the aviation-related operational performance improvements that are sought. However, data communication does not start when you get into the aircraft; it starts back at the location where the flight is planned. In fact, data communications support the pilot in all phases of the flight: flight planning, pre-flight, departure, en route, transition, approach, landing and rollout as well as for a missed approach. The Internet is being used to perform flight planning activities and the mobile communications available today support Internet access en route to the departure airfield. On board, the aircraft data communications provide surveillance and air traffic control (ATC) support to the pilot. The location of other aircraft is available to the pilot and ATC system through automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) and traffic information service-broadcast (TIS-B) applications that transmit the location of other aircraft in the vicinity. The surveillance data is used to forecast potential conflicts with other aircraft and, thus, enhance the safety of the flight. As the aircraft nears a SATS-equipped airfield, the pilot uses data link messages to request a landing sequence. The airport management module (AMM) provides a landing sequence assignment to the aircraft. As the pilot maneuvers the aircraft for a landing, he/she is using data-linked surveillance data to determine the location of other aircraft and maintain a safe separation distance between aircraft even in a low visibility environment.

Probing Glass Transition of Ultrathin Polymer Films at a Time Scale of Seconds Using Fast Differential Scanning Calorimetry (2004)

Ultrasensitive, thin-film, differential scanning calorimetry is used to determine the glass-transition temperature of 3−400 nm thick, spin-cast films of polystyrene, poly (2-vinyl pyridine), and poly (methyl methacrylate) on a platinum surface. The technique used here is modified to characterize the glass transition over a time scale of seconds rather than milliseconds. No appreciable dependence of the glass-transition temperature on thickness is observed over the entire range used. The results are discussed in comparison with previous calorimetric measurements, characterized by the glass-transition time scale of milliseconds.
Thermal decomposition of 2H-(1,2,4)oxadiazolo(2,3-a)pyridine-2-thione and 2H-(1,2,4)oxadiazolo(2,3-b)pyridazine-2-thiones: Generation of aza-heteroaromatic .ALPHA.-isocyanates and their utilization for the synthesis of unsymmetrical disubstituted ureas. (1980)

Thermal decomposition of 2H-[1, 2, 4] oxadiazolo [2, 3-a] pyridine-2-thione afforded 3-(2-pyridyl)-2H-pyrido [1, 2-a]-1, 3, 5-triazine-2, 4 (3H)-dione and 1, 3-di (2-pyridyl) urea, and similar decomposition of its pyridazine analog afforded 3-(3-pyridazinyl)-2H-pyridazino [1, 6-a]-1, 3, 5-triazine-2, 4 (3H)-dione and 1, 3-di (3-pyridazinyl) urea. Aza-heteroaromatic α-isocyanates, which are intermediates in the decomposition, were utilized for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 1, 3-disubstituted ureas.
A Theorem on Convex Sets with Applications (1955)

T. W. Anderson [1] has proved the following theorem and has given applications to probability and statistics. THEOREM 1. Let $E$ be a convex set in $n$-space, symmetric about the origin. Let $f(x) \geqq 0$ be a function such that i) $f(x) = f(-x)$, ii) $\{x |f(x) \geqq u\} = K_u$ is convex for every $u (0 \geqq u \geqq \infty)$ and iii) $\int_E f(x) dx < \infty$, then$ \begin{equation*}\tag{(1)}\int_E f(x + ky) dx \geqq \int_E f(x + y) dx\quad for 0 \leqq k \leqq 1.$ The purpose of this paper is to prove what can be considered a generalization of Anderson's Theorem and to give different statistical applications. Functions in $L_1$ satisfying the hypothesis were called unimodal by Anderson and he noted in [1] that if we let $\varphi(y)$ be equal to the right hand side of (1) then $\varphi$ is not unimodal in his sense insofar as it does not necessarily satisfy $ii$ (i.e., there exist $f, E$, and $u$ such that $\{x\mid \varphi(x) \geqq u\}$ is not convex). His example is the case where $n = 2$ and \begin{equation*}f(x) = \begin{cases}3,\quad\|x_1\| \leqq 1,\quad\|x_2\| \leqq 1, \\ 2,\quad\|x_1\| \leqq 1,\quad 1 < \|x_2\| \leqq 5, \\ 0,\quad {other} x,\end{cases}\end{equation*} where $x_1, x_2$ are the components of $x$ relative to rectangular cartesian coordinate system. Let $E$ be the set of vectors where $|x_1| \leqq 1, |x_2| \leqq 1$. The set $\{x \mid \varphi(x) \geqq 6\}$ is not convex since for $x = (.5,4)$ and $x = (1,0), \varphi(x) = 6$, while for $x = (.75.2), \varphi (x) < 6$. The point of departure of this paper is to see what can be said about $\varphi$. This is achieved in Theorem 2, giving a stronger and more symmetrical statement than Anderson makes (but one which does not yield more information for his applications). The main Lemma, presented below, proceeds along the line of his argument but squeezes out additional information (convexity of level lines) under a weaker hypothesis (no symmetry assumptions) than Anderson uses at the corresponding stage of his argument.
Touch-Based Organization of Patent Collections (2012)

The number of patent applications has been growing rapidly: in 2010 the patent application requests increased with 11% at the European Patent Office. It is important that patent examiners can efficiently compare new applications with published patents. Patent examiners review the list of relevant patents, returned by a search query, one at a time using the current tools. There is no overview of the patents and time is wasted when the best document is the last in the list. An overview of the patent collection can provide insights into which patents can be skipped and which should be read in detail. This work proposes an Organization Viewer for reviewing a collection of patents. It is based on the research prototype TouchPat which uses multi-touch interaction and displays the patents in a static 2D grid. In the Organizational Viewer, the patents can be organized manually in a spatial layout using a new multi-touch gesture set and Stacks. In addition, this work examines how automatic organization using the Local Affine Multidimensional Projection (LAMP) technique can also support the user. These new organization techniques are evaluated with twelve patent examiners at the European Patent Office using the think-aloud protocol. The results of these evaluation show that an overview is a valuable addition to the work of patent examiners and that the value of an overview for patent examiners depends on personal preferences as well as their domain of expertise. The TouchPat prototype and the evaluation transcripts give insight into the features that can improve the process of reviewing relevant patents.
Personal identification using computerized human ear recognition system (2011)

Biometric authentication for personal identification is very popular now a days. Human ear recognition system is a new technology in this field. The change of appearance with the expression was a major problem in face biometrics but in case of ear biometrics the shape and appearance is fixed. That is why it is advantageous to use it for personal identification. In this paper, we have proposed a new approach for an automated system for human ear identification. Our proposed method consists of three stages. In the first stage, preprocessing of ear image is done for its contrast enhancement and size normalization. In the second stage, features are extracted through Haar wavelets followed by ear identification using fast normalized cross correlation in the third stage. The proposed method is applied on USTB ear image database and IIT Delhi ear image database. Experimental results show that our proposed system achieves an average accuracy of 97.2% and 95.2% on these databases respectively.
