아토피피부염 환자의 치료경과에 따른 중증도 평가에서 SCORAD Index와 기계적 측정값과의 상관관계 (2010)

Background: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic relapsing inflammatory skin disease characterized by dry skin, pruritus, and typical distribution of the lesions. Because an objective tool for the assessment of disease severity of atopic dermatitis has yet to be agreed upon, many dermatologists are dependent on subjective history and clinical scoring. Recently, instrumental measurements have been used for the assessment of skin barrier function. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation between SCORAD (scoring of atopic Dermatitis) index and the results of instrumental assessments of disease severity in atopic dermatitis. Additionally, we compared the values of instrumental measurements on normal and lesional skin. Methods: From February to April 2007, 44 patients with atopic dermatitis were treated with topical steroids, topical calcineurine inhibitors, oral antihistamine agents and systemic steroids. At initial visit, and after 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks of treatment, the SCORAD index was measured, and instrumental measurements of skin surface hydration (SSH), transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and pH were performed on the antecubital fossa (lesional skin) and flank (normal skin) of the patients by Corneometer(R), Tewameter(R), and skin-pH-meter(R). Results: Significant correlation was found between SCORAD index and SSH (p＜0.0001), TEWL (p＜0.0001), and pH (p=0.1680). SSH and TEWL improved within 1 week of treatment but pH improved after 2 weeks of treatment. Instrumental assessments showed lesional skin had lower SSH, higher TEWL, and more alkaline pH than normal skin. Conclusion: Instrumental measurements showed correlation with SCORAD index. Therefore, we can use instrumental assessments as well as SCORAD index in the assessment of disease severity of AD. (Korean J Dermatol 2010;48(4):266~271)
La acumulación en el proceso laboral: observaciones críticas (2009)

La acumulacion en el proceso laboral se acomete en este trabajo en sus cuatro vertientes: la acumulacion de pretensiones, de procesos, recursos y la acumulacion de ejecuciones. Bajo el prisma del objeto del proceso, como fuerza motriz de la acumulacion misma, las antedichas cuatro vertientes o modalidades se analizan desde la optica estrictamente doctrinal, sin desmerecer, ello no obstante, los problemas de aplicacion en la practica cotidiana. Problemas derivados de la falta de adaptacion de la Ley de Procedimiento Laboral a la vigente Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil. Esta falta de adaptacion obliga al operador juridico a ser indudable protagonista a la hora de establecer o resolver los constantes conflictos suscitados en dicha practica. En este breve estudio se pretende conjugar ambas leyes procesales para esclarecer, si cabe, la conflictividad actual tanto la doctrinal -en muchas cuestiones se presentan criterios dispares- como la suscitada en la actividad forense. A paliar aquella conflictividad -se viene a sostener en este articulo- coadyuvaria la reforma integral de la norma procesal laboral.

Preparation and properties of UV‐autocurable BTDA‐based polyester multiacrylates. I. Effects of acrylic functionality and polyol molecular weight (1990)

Abstract A series of UV‐autocurable benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA)‐based polyester multiacrylate oligomers was synthesized and the effects of acrylic functionality and molecular weight on their physical properties were investigated. The multiacrylate oligomers were prepared by the ring‐opening reaction of glycidyl methacrylate and diacrylate oligomers containing pendant acid groups. The latter was prepared from BTDA, PEG, and hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA). The obtained autocurable oligomers are cured rapidly when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) without the addition of photoinitiator or photosensitizer. Increasing the mole percentage of GMA in oligomer led to higher acrylic functionality and photocuring rate. The increasing in the functionality of acrylic oligomer was reflected in higher crosslinking density of the cured film which resulted in an increase in Young's modulus and breaking strength, while elongation at break decreased. On the other hand, increasing PEG molecular weight led to a decrease in Young's modulus and breaking strength due to existence of a small amount of acrylate phase and a larger chain length between crosslinks. The dynamic mechanical analysis results showed that storage modulus ( E' ) and glass transition temperature ( T g ) were affected by the mol % of GMA and the molecular weight of PEG in the cured oligomers. With increasing mol % of GMA in the oligomers, the storage modulus and T g shifted to higher temperatures; however, storage modulus and T g decreased with increasing PEG molecular weight.
Synthetic Confirmation of the Structure of the Lichen Benzyl Esters Alectorialic and Barbatolic Acids (1987)

The total synthesis of methyl alectorialate (3) and methyl barbatolate (4) has been achieved, and the synthetic esters have been compared with naturally derived material. In addition alectorialin (decarboxylalectorialic acid) (5) and barbatolin (6) have been synthesized. The lichen Alectoria nigricans was shown to contain alectorialic acid (1), barbatolic acid (2), alectorialin (5) and 5,7-dihydroxy-6-methylphthalide (8), while the lichen Bryoria nadvornikiana was found to contain (1), (2), (5), barbatolin (6) and 6-formyl-5,7-dihydroxyphthalide (27).
Regulation of haemopoietic stem cell proliferation in long term bone marrow cultures. (1977)

The development of a suitable bone marrow derived adherent cell population appears to be essential for the prolonged maintenance of haemopoietic stem cells in vitro. When established adherent layers are inoculated with freshly isolated bone marrow cells, proliferation of stem cells (CFU-S) regularly occurs both in the adherent layer and amongst the non-adherent cells. Furthermore, CFU-S present within the adherent layer are able to regenerate both themselves and the "non-adherent" CFU-S. One day after re-feeding the cultures (by removal of half the growth medium and addition of fresh medium) both the "non-adherent" and the "adherent" CFU-S are in a high cycling state (greater than 40% kill with 3HTdR). This proportion decreases with time of re-feeding and 5-7 days later the majority of "adherent" and "non-adherent" CFU-S are in a low cycling state ( less than 10% 3HTdR kill). Following a further re-feeding, CFU-S again enter a high cycling state.
The cow model. A management tool for ruminant feeding. (1993)

A model is proposed for the prediction of animal production at a given amount and quality of feed in lactating cows based partly on NRC formulae for dry matter intake (DMI) and nutrient requirements. This model was used on data gathered from farmers in the Pune district of Maharashtra, to estimate production performance from the observed availability of feeds. A wide range of nutritive values was assumed for feeds available, and varying concentrate levels were included, to predict the number of lactating cows and their production that could be supported under different options. Predicted values related well with actual field observations : predicted number of animals were 2 and 6. Predicted production was 5200 1 versus 5500 in actual observations. The possible reasons for the differences include errors in (i) the data gathered, (ii) assumptions on requirements of animals, and (Hi) the DMI prediction formula, especially the part dealing with the substitution rates. More information on experiments conducted with crop residues needs to be analysed to improve the accuracy of the model. The study was further intended to assess the effects of selective consumption of roughage on number of animals and their productivity. With an assumed increase of 5 units in TDN content due to selection the milk production per animal increased by 12%. The model needs to be refined but can be used to assess the effect on herd composition and individual production of innovations that are discussed elsewhere in these proceedings i.e. straw treatment as well as effects of breeding or management for straw quality and or straw quantity.
Educational cellular radio network planning software tool (1998)

In this paper, an educational software tool (CELLPLAN) is presented. This tool is used to illustrate to telecommunications engineering students the different steps typically followed in the planning of cellular radio networks. The software tool described in this paper simulates the procedures and algorithms implemented in professional planning tools in a simplified way. The major difference being that no actual terrain information (Digital Terrain Model) is used in the simulations but rather a "generic" terrain configuration is assumed. The availability of this simulation tool in the classroom gives fifth-year telecommunications engineering students the opportunity to tackle realistic cellular network design cases as if they were in a real engineering office.
The heart in congestive failure. (1990)

Long-term overloading of the heart gives rise to myocardial abnormalities that play an important role in determining prognosis in patients with congestive cardiac failure. This myocardial response, which can be viewed as a cardiomyopathy of overload, results in part from energy-starvation and altered gene expression in the chronically overloaded heart. The role of vasodilator therapy in reducing symptoms and prolonging life in these patients may be due in part to reduced cardiac energy expenditure; however, the beneficial effects of some vasodilators, notably the converting enzyme inhibitors, may be due to additional effects on the cells of the hypertrophied, failing heart. Improved therapeutic strategies to slow myocardial deterioration in patients with congestive cardiac failure can be expected to come from new knowledge of the pathophysiology, biochemistry and molecular biology of the failing heart.
Sorting Blueberries for Quality by Vibration1 (1973)

Abstract A method is described and test results reported for sorting blueberries with low-frequency vibration. Separation was dependent on fruit firmness which is affected by roughness of handling and other softening factors. Firmness, as measured by compressing blueberries 0.2 cm between flat plates, statistically explained 58 to 72% of the variation in frequency for removal of berries from a vibrating trough with constant energy input. When comparing ripeness with frequency for sorting, light transmittance (∆OD; 740-800 nm) values, which indicate anthocyanin pigment concentration, explained only 10% of the variation in sorting frequency. Berries of several cultivars and harvest dates were vibration sorted and tested for susceptibility to decay. Sorting frequency statistically explained 75% of the variation in decay level. Thus, the vibration method should be suitable for sorting blueberries into groups of different shelf life.
Thermodynamic theory and experimental studies on mixed short-chain lecithin micelles (2007)

A thermodynamic theory for ideally mixed rodlike micelles is used to predict the size distribution and mean aggregation number of mixed dihexanoylphosphatidyl-choline (diC6PC) and diheptanoyl-phosphatidylcholine (diC7PC) micelles. The mixed diC6PC and diC7PC micelles are also studied by small-angle neutron scattering. The measured neutron scattering spectra are analyzed to give the size distribution and mean aggregation number of the mixed micelles by using indirect transform method. The experimentally determined mean aggregation number of the mixed micelles is in general in good agreement with that predicted by the thermodynamic theory. The addition of small amounts of diC6PC to a 10 mM diC7PC solution is found to make the micelles become significantly smaller and the addition of small amounts of diC7PC to a 10 mM diC6PC solution is found to make the micelles grow slightly larger.
ECG Repolarization Waves: Their Genesis and Clinical Implications (2005)

The electrocardiographic (ECG) manifestation of ventricular repolarization includes J (Osborn), T, and U waves. On the basis of biophysical principles of ECG recording, any wave on the body surface ECG represents a coincident voltage gradient generated by cellular electrical activity within the heart. The J wave is a deflection with a dome that appears on the ECG after the QRS complex. A transmural voltage gradient during initial ventricular repolarization, which results from the presence of a prominent action potential notch mediated by the transient outward potassium current (I(to)) in epicardium but not endocardium, is responsible for the registration of the J wave on the ECG. Clinical entities that are associated with J waves (the J-wave syndrome) include the early repolarization syndrome, the Brugada syndrome and idiopathic ventricular fibrillation related to a prominent J wave in the inferior leads. The T wave marks the final phase of ventricular repolarization and is a symbol of transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR) in the ventricles. An excessively prolonged QT interval with enhanced TDR predisposes people to develop torsade de pointes. The malignant "R-on-T" phenomenon, i.e., an extrasystole that originates on the preceding T wave, is due to transmural propagation of phase 2 reentry or phase 2 early afterdepolarization. A pathological "U" wave as seen with hypokalemia is the consequence of electrical interaction among ventricular myocardial layers at action potential phase 3 of which repolarization slows. A physiological U wave is thought to be due to delayed repolarization of the Purkinje system.

Magnetic Recording Storage (1976)

This review article attempts to give a perspective on the evolution of magnetic recording storage devices, highlight the frontiers of current activity, and address the future of this storage technology. Tape, disk (both rigid and flexible), and mass storage systems are covered. It is of interest to note that digital magnetic recording spans not only the twenty-five year history of the IEEE Computer Society which this issue is recognizing but has during this whole period undergone continual technical advances and widespread growth in usage. It is fair to say that magnetic recording is among the most important technologies in the history of the computer age to date.
Navigation guided by artificial force fields (1998)

This paper presents a new technique for controlling a user's navigation in a virtual environment. The approach introduces artificial force fields which act upon the user's virtual body such that he is guided around obstacles, rather than penetrating or colliding with them. The technique is extended to incorporate gravity into the environment. The problem of negotiating stairs during a walk-through has also been investigated with the new approach. Human subjects were tested in experiments in which they experienced three different kinds of navigation: unconstrained, simple constrained and assisted by force fields. Theresults demonstrate that the force-field technique is an effective approach for effective, comfortable navigation.

Remaining useful life predictions for turbofan engine degradation using semi-supervised deep architecture (2018)

In recent years, research has proposed several deep learning (DL) approaches to providing reliable remaining useful life (RUL) predictions in Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) applications. Although supervised DL techniques, such as Convolutional Neural Network and Long-Short Term Memory, have outperformed traditional prognosis algorithms, they are still dependent on large labeled training datasets. With respect to real-life PHM applications, high-quality labeled training data might be both challenging and time-consuming to acquire. Alternatively, unsupervised DL techniques introduce an initial pre-training stage to extract degradation related features from raw unlabeled training data automatically. Thus, the combination of unsupervised and supervised (semi-supervised) learning has the potential to provide high RUL prediction accuracy even with reduced amounts of labeled training data. This paper investigates the effect of unsupervised pre-training in RUL predictions utilizing a semi-supervised setup. Additionally, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) approach is applied in order to tune the diverse amount of hyper-parameters in the training procedure. The advantages of the proposed semi-supervised setup have been verified on the popular C-MAPSS dataset. The experimental study, compares this approach to purely supervised training, both when the training data is completely labeled and when the labeled training data is reduced, and to the most robust results in the literature. The results suggest that unsupervised pre-training is a promising feature in RUL predictions subjected to multiple operating conditions and fault modes.
Single-Crystalline InGaAs Nanowires for Room-Temperature High-Performance Near-Infrared Photodetectors (2015)

InGaAs is an important bandgap-variable ternary semiconductor which has wide applications in electronics and optoelectronics. In this work, single-crystal InGaAs nanowires were synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method. Photoluminescence measurements indicate the InGaAs nanowires have strong light emission in near-infrared region. For the first time, photodetector based on as-grown InGaAs nanowires was also constructed. It shows good light response over a broad spectral range in infrared region with responsivity of 6.5 × 10<sup>3</sup> A W<sup>-1</sup> and external quantum efficiency of 5.04 × 10<sup>5</sup> %. This photodetector may have potential applications in integrated optoelectronic devices and systems.

Non-conduct steering sensor for Electric Power Steering (2009)

Preventing from side slipping, automobiles are being equipped EPS (Electric Power Steering) and ESP (Electronic Stability Program) at present. We need not only steering torsion sensor but also steering angle sensor for EPS and ESP. Magneto-resistance steering sensor is a substitute for steering torsion sensor, this new-type sensor can measure steering torsion and angle. Magneto-resistance steering sensor consists of sensitive magnetic elements and signal disc. After the output circuit being designed, we can obtain steering torsion and angle though the signal from the output circuit ultimately. And at the end of this paper, the characteristic curve of magneto-resistance steering sensor is showed.
An Experimental Result of Conditional Shortest Path Routing In Delay Tolerant Networks (2012)

Delay tolerant networks are characterized by the sporadic connectivity between their nodes and therefore the lack of stable end-to-end paths from source to destination. Since the future node connections are mostly unknown in these networks, opportunistic forwarding is used to deliver messages. However, making effective forwarding decisions using only the network characteristics (i.e. average intermeeting time between nodes) extracted from contact history is a challenging problem. Based on the observations about human mobility traces and the findings of previous work, we introduce a new metric called conditional intermeeting time, which computes the average intermeeting time between two nodes relative to a meeting with a third node using only the local knowledge of the past contacts. We then look at the effects of the proposed metric on the shortest path based routing designed for delay tolerant networks. We propose Conditional Shortest Path Routing (CSPR) protocol that routes the messages over conditional shortest paths in which the cost of links between nodes is defined by conditional intermeeting times rather than the conventional intermeeting times. Through trace-driven simulations, we demonstrate that CSPR achieves higher delivery rate and lower end-toend delay compared to the shortest path based routing protocols that use the conventional intermeeting time as the link metric.
