THE USE OF EXOGEN ULTRASOUND BONE HEALING SYSTEM IN THE POST-OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF FRACTURES AT THE ROYAL CORNWALL HOSPITAL TRURO (2015)

This study reviewed all patients who received an EXOGEN Express bone stimulating device (BSD) to treat delayed union / non-union following operative treatment for a long bone fracture & evaluate if our results are comparable with the NICE guideline expectations. A retrospective review of records between December 2004 & January 2013 revealed 113 patients treated with a BSD. A total of 59 patients were eligible for analysis, (operative treatment for a long bone fracture with adjuvant EXOGEN BSD for non-union or delayed union). Twenty-one were open fractures. The BSD was applied at a mean of 264 days post-operatively. Thirty-five patients went on to have a 2nd operation before union was achieved. Forty-two patients went on to union following application of the BSD. Mean time to union was 293 days. Seventeen patients failed to unite by the end of the study. There were no adverse reactions to the EXOGEN BSD in this cohort. This study has shown that the use of an EXOGEN BSD is a safe, non-invasive method to successfully treat long bone non-unions following initial operative surgery, with potential cost savings (a potential saving of £48,888 to the hospital according to NICE estimations) compared to the standard re-operative management.

Experimental hydrodynamic study of a novel globe-shaped submersible fish cage system (1991)

In order to meet the increasing requirement of farming fish in more exposed offshore sites, a novel globe-shaped submersible fish cage system with two tension mooring lines has been proposed. In normal sea conditions the cage remains on the surface; during storms the cage can be submerged some distance below the water surface to reduce the wave forces and motions of the cage and hence reduce the forces in the mooring system and the stress on the farmed fish. Since the proposed system is a quite new design concept, few theoretical and experimental results can be found to guide the prototype design. -- To have a better understanding of the hydrodynamic performance of the proposed system, qualitative analyses were conducted and a series of resistance tests and moored tests were carried out with two globe-shaped cage models, one spherical and the other geodesic, to study the resistance forces of the cages in currents and the motion and mooring force responses of the cage system in waves. In the resistance tests, three orientations of the cage axle to the current direction were tested. In the moored tests, three submerged positions and three orientations were tested and the effects of pretension and axial stiffness of the mooring lines were investigated in both regular waves and irregular waves. -- The study shows that the relationship between the current velocity and the resultant resistance force can be interpolated very well with a quadratic equation regressed from the test results. Provided the Reynolds numbers of the cage elements are still within the range of subcritical flow regime, the regressed equation can also be used to extrapolate the resistance force outside the Reynolds number range tested. -- The study also shows that the method of submerging the cage below the water surface to reduce the motions of the cage and the forces in the mooring system is very effective in deep water waves, but becomes less and less effective in intermediate water waves. The pretension of the mooring lines has little effect on the dynamic mooring force and motion responses of the cage system as long as the mooring lines do not go slack. The stiffness of the mooring lines has a significant effect on the responses of mooring force, heave and roll, but has little effect on the responses of surge and sway. When the cage is perpendicular to the wavefront, the vertical displacement and mooring force on one side of the cage may be significantly larger than those on the other side because of the phase difference between the heave and roll motions of the cage.

Cold-adapted, live attenuated influenza vaccine (2004)

The recently licensed cold-adapted, live attenuated influenza vaccine (CAIV-T, FluMist, MedImmune Vaccines Inc.) has the potential to enhance control of epidemic influenza. The intranasal vaccine has proven safety and efficacy. Regulatory constraints and cost of CAIV-T have hampered the introduction of the vaccine in the first year. Unwarranted concern about possible transmission of the virus from vaccine recipients to immunocompromised patients limited use in healthcare personnel. The intense influenza A(H3N2) epidemic of 2003-2004 has underscored the necessity of supplementing current efforts to control influenza. Over 120 deaths have been documented in children - the majority of which have been previously healthy. Use of CAIV-T in children will not only decrease the risk of serious disease, but also dampen the spread of the virus in the community and reduce exposure of patients who are at high risk of complications and death.
Bacterial Polyesters Produced by <i>Pseudomonas oleovorans</i> Containing Nitrophenyl Groups (1999)

Polymers containing nitrophenyl groups were isolated when P. oleovorans was grown with 5-(2‘,4‘-dinitrophenyl)valeric acid (DNPVA). Growth experiments were carried out containing variable ratios of this and nonanoic acid (NA). These revealed a loss of the 2‘-nitro group as the experiment proceeded. The bacteria produced polymeric materials with 1.2%−6.9% of repeating units containing 4‘-nitro and/or 2‘,4‘-nitrophenyl rings, depending on the DNPVA:NA molar ratio and total concentration of these carbon sources, according to NMR analysis. The polymeric material isolated from approximately 15% dry cell weight when using a 7:3 DNPVA:NA molar ratio at 10 mM total concentration was a yellow, elastic substance. Thermal analysis indicated the presence of two Tg values, Tg,1 = −35.95 °C and Tg,2 = 28.74 °C, and one Tm value of 56.42 °C. These data suggest the presence of two polymers, one which contains nitrophenyl rings and the other being the copolymer of nonanoic acid.

Studies of energy transport in heart cells. The importance of creatine kinase localization for the coupling of mitochondrial phosphorylcreatine production to oxidative phosphorylation. (1980)

To define further the importance of enzyme compartmentation for phosphorylcreatine production coupled to oxidative phosphorylation, we studied the kinetics of phosphorylcreatine synthesis by the heart mitochondrial isoenzyme of creatine kinase.The kinetic constants for the formation of the binary and ternary enzyme.substrate complexes during the forward reaction were similar for bound and soluble enzyme.These constants were measured under nonrespiring conditions with pyruvate kinase employed as the exogenous ATP regenerating system.The values at pH 7.4 and 30°C are as follows: bound = 0.73 m; K,A,, 0.73 mnt; Kicn 5.0 m; Kmcn 5.0 m; and soluble = 0.60 mnt; K,ATP, 0.35 mnt; Kit, 8.5 mnt; Kmcr, 5.0 111~.Four other assay systems were used to examine the kinetics of phosphorylcreatine production: 1) native-bound enzyme with ATP supplied by oxidative phosphorylation; 2) bound enzyme with ATP from the pyruvate kinase reaction; 3) soluble mitochondrial enzyme plus liver mitochondria with ATP from oxidative phosphorylation; and 4) soluble mitochondrial enzyme with pyruvate kinase-generated ATP.Under these four conditions, with constant 1 1 1 1 ~ ATP, the apparent K , for creatine was not influenced by either enzyme solubilization or the source of ATP.However, when creatine was held constant at 25 mM, a 5-to 7-fold decrease was noted for the apparent K , value for ATP when it was supplied by oxidative phosphorylation to the bound enzyme.The values for the apparent K , constants under these conditions were: 1) K, = 37 CM; 2) K,,, = 200 p i ; 3) K,,, = 145 CM; and 4) K,,, = 200 PM, respectively.Phosphorylcreatine product inhibition studies also demonstrated major differences for the apparent K , for ATP which were related to enzyme location.During oxidative phosphorylation, competitive inhibition between phosphorylcreatine and ATP was observed for both bound and soluble mitochondrial creatine kinase
Genuine and Artificial Stammering: An EMG Comparison* (1979)

Summary A pilot experimental procedure was designed to determine whether genuine stammering and artificially induced stammering in a normal speaker are manifestations of the same phenomenon: results would indicate that they are not. It is further concluded that there is no significant difference between genuine fluency in a normal speaker, and artificially induced fluency in a stammerer using auditory feedback masking. A simple device for achieving delayed auditory feedback is also described.
ECA-Net: Efficient Channel Attention for Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (2019)

Recently, channel attention mechanism has demonstrated to offer great potential in improving the performance of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, most existing methods dedicate to developing more sophisticated attention modules for achieving better performance, which inevitably increase model complexity. To overcome the paradox of performance and complexity trade-off, this paper proposes an Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) module, which only involves a handful of parameters while bringing clear performance gain. By dissecting the channel attention module in SENet, we empirically show avoiding dimensionality reduction is important for learning channel attention, and appropriate cross-channel interaction can preserve performance while significantly decreasing model complexity. Therefore, we propose a local cross-channel interaction strategy without dimensionality reduction, which can be efficiently implemented via $1D$ convolution. Furthermore, we develop a method to adaptively select kernel size of $1D$ convolution, determining coverage of local cross-channel interaction. The proposed ECA module is efficient yet effective, e.g., the parameters and computations of our modules against backbone of ResNet50 are 80 vs. 24.37M and 4.7e-4 GFLOPs vs. 3.86 GFLOPs, respectively, and the performance boost is more than 2% in terms of Top-1 accuracy. We extensively evaluate our ECA module on image classification, object detection and instance segmentation with backbones of ResNets and MobileNetV2. The experimental results show our module is more efficient while performing favorably against its counterparts.

Monoacylglycerols and diacylglycerols for fat-based food products: a review (2020)

The flexibility of monoacylglycerol (MAG) and diacylglycerol (DAG) attracted the attention of researchers to learn more about MAG and DAG in food science and technology. The objective of this paper is to serve a review or summarize the production (especially enzymatic glycerolysis), characteristics, and application of MAG and DAG, especially for fat-based products. The characteristic of MAG and DAG related to melting and crystallization properties, polymorphism, microstructure, and rheology are presented and discussed. The applications of MAG and DAG include their use as fats/oils rich in MAG and DAG, margarine/shortening, surfactant/emulsifier, and organogels are also provided. Various studies have shown that MAG and DAG can improve the characteristics of various fat-based food products.
On modifications of Newton's second law and linear continuum elastodynamics (2007)

In this paper, we suggest a new perspective, where Newton's second law of motion is replaced by a more general law which is a better approximation for describing the motion of seemingly rigid macroscopic bodies. We confirm a finding of Willis that the density of a body at a given frequency of oscillation can be anisotropic. The relation between the force and the acceleration is non-local (but causal) in time. Conversely, for every response function satisfying these properties, and having the appropriate high-frequency limit, there is a model which realizes that response function. In many circumstances, the differences between Newton's second law and the new law are small, but there are circumstances, such as in specially designed composite materials, where the difference is enormous. For bodies which are not seemingly rigid, the continuum equations of elastodynamics govern behaviour and also need to be modified. The modified versions of these equations presented here are a generalization of the equations proposed by Willis to describe elastodynamics in composite materials. It is argued that these new sets of equations may apply to all physical materials, not just composites. The Willis equations govern the behaviour of the average displacement field whereas one set of new equations governs the behaviour of the average-weighted displacement field, where the weighted displacement field may attach zero weight to ‘hidden’ areas in the material where the displacement may be unobservable or not defined. From knowledge of the average-weighted displacement field, one obtains an approximate formula for the ensemble averaged energy density. Two other sets of new equations govern the behaviour when the microstructure has microinertia, i.e. where there are internal spinning masses below the chosen scale of continuum modelling. In the first set, the average displacement field is assumed to be observable, while in the second set an average-weighted displacement field is assumed to be observable.
Cloning and detection of serpin-like protein encoding gene inBifidobacterium longum strains (2008)

Bifidobacterium longum has immunostimulant activity thatin vitro can lead to apoptotic response of Caco-2 cell line. It secretes a hypothetical eukaryotic type serpin protein, which could be involved in this kind of deletion of damaged cells. We had previously characterised a protein that has homologies with the hypothetical serpin ofB. longum (DD087853). In order to createBifidobacterium serpin transformants, aB. longum cosmid library was screened with a PCR protocol using specific primers for serpin gene. After fragment extraction, the insert named S1 was sub-cloned into pRM2, anEscherichia coli — Bifidobacterium shuttle vector, to construct pRM3. Several protocols forB. longum transformation were performed and the best efficiency was obtained using MRS medium and raffinose. Finally bacterial cell supernatants were tested in a dot-blot assay to detect antigens presence against anti-antitrypsin polyclonal antibody. Our research study is aimed to generate transformants able to over express serpin encoding gene, so that we can have the tools for a further study on bacterial apoptotic induction of Caco-2 cell line.

Preparation, and complexes with nickel(II) and copper(II), of a diazepane amine alcohol. The structure of [4,4-dimethyl-7-(5,5,7-trimethyl-1,4-diazepan-1-yl)-5-azaheptan-2-ol]nickel(II) perchlorate (1983)

Reduction of 4,4,12,12-tetramethyl-5,8,11-triazapentadecane-2,14-dione diperchlorate by sodium borohydride yields as the major product one isomer of 4,4-dimethyl-7-(5,5,7-trimethyl-1,2-diazepam 1-yl)-5-azaheptan-2-ol, pyaz. The coordination compounds [M(pyaz)] (ClO4), and [Ni(pyaz)(NCS)] CNS (M = NiII, CuII) were prepared, the latter being assigned five-coordinate structures. The structure of singlet ground state [Ni(pyaz)] (ClO4)2 was determined by X-ray diffraction [space group P212121, Z 4, a 1450.8(2), b 1522.2(1), c 1048.5(1) pm, R 0.0675, Rw 0.0768 for 2461 reflections]. The compound has a square-planar coordination arrangement, with the three nitrogen and the oxygen donor atoms of the pyaz ligand approximately coplanar [Ni-O 190.0(6) pm; Ni-N 192.8(6), 189.2(6), 189.2(6) pm in sequence N(5) of chain, N(l), N(4) of diazepane]. The diazepane ring adopts a boat conformation. One side of the nickel(II) coordination plane is sterically crowded by the presence of two axial methyl substituents. The ligand has two non-equivalent chiral centres (C(14) of the diazepane ring and C(2) of the amine alcohol chain), both present in the R configuration in the crystal studied. The three nitrogen atoms, which became chiral centres upon coordination, are present in the S configuration for two diazepane nitrogen atoms and in the R configuration for the 5-aza chain nitrogen.
Six New Plant-Growth-Inhibiting Compounds (1950)

1. Six organic ammonium compounds were found to inhibit internodal elongation of Black Valentine bean seedlings when applied to the stems or leaves: (4-Hydroxy-5-isopropyl-2-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium chloride, 1-piperidinecarboxylate (4-Hydroxy-5-isopropyl-2-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium iodide, N-β-chloroethyl-N-ethylcarbamate (4-Hydroxy-5-isopropyl-2-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium iodide, 1-piperidinecarboxylate (4-Hydroxy-2-isopropyl-5-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium iodide, 4-morpholinecarboxylate (4-Hydroxy-2-isopropyl-5-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium chloride, 4-morpholinecarboxylate (4-Hydroxy-5-isopropyl-2-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium chloride, N, N-bis-(β-chloroethyl) carbamate 2. These ammonium compounds delayed blossoming of bean plants 3-10 days when applied in amounts of approximately 0.1 mg. per plant. 3. One of the more active of these compounds, (4-hydroxy-5-isopropyl-2-methylphenyl)trimethyl ammonium chloride, 1-piperidinecarboxylate, proved to be more effective in inhibiting stem elongation of bean seedlings than did either maleic hydrazide or 2,4-dichlorobenzylnicotinium chloride.
Memory dump and forensic analysis based on virtual machine (2014)

A memory dump and forensic analysis algorithm is proposed based on virtual machine in the paper, including the virtual machine process search module, virtual machine memory dump module and virtual machine memory forensics analysis modules. First of all, the virtual machine process search module by traversal searching all the running processes in system, according to the process owner user to identify the process of the virtual machine. And then, using the virtual machine memory dump module to dump the memory of the virtual machine process and the memory files is occupied. Finally, using the memory forensics analysis module to analyze accessed memory files, obtain evidence of the virtual machine information, such as process information, network information, user information, etc. This method can neither rewriting memory of the virtual machine and the system, ensure the integrity and efficiency of the virtual machine memory and forensic analysis, at the same time the dump memory files can be repeated analysis, guarantee the credibility of forensic results.
Ticketing of large scale events: the case of Sydney 2000 Olympic Games (2002)

This paper investigates the challenge of ticketing for the Sydney Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (SOCOG). During the various phases of ticket marketing and ticket offers, mistakes were committed, which caused damage to the ticketing campaign and the image of the Organizing Committee as well. The public disappointment produced by those mistakes was expressed in many different ways. One month prior to the Opening Ceremony, more than two million tickets remained unsold. However, people’s desire to take part in the “greatest show on earth”, led to a boom in tickets sales in the lead up to the Opening Ceremony. Finally, SOCOG managed to sell 87.90 per cent of the tickets available to the public, the largest percentage of tickets ever sold in an Olympiad.

Insights to Skin-turf Friction as Investigated Using the Securisport (2015)

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the infill and fibers of an artificial turf surface to the overall frictional behavior of the surface. The assessment was conducted using the Securisport test device in accordance to the FIFA Test Method so as to evaluate the effectiveness of the standard test in describing the frictional property of an artificial turf surface. Experiments showed that surfaces of varying infill depths and infill types produced characteristic features in their friction profiles that were a result of the fiber-infill interactions. The surface without infill exhibited the highest frictional values, with distinct peak and trough features. Surfaces completely filled with sand or rubber displayed similar profiles with relatively low frictional values. Test results showed that turf fibers influenced the frictional behaviour of partially-filled systems to a great extent. The results from the Securisport were useful in providing insights to how various turf components affect the skin-turf interaction and may be beneficial in the development of more skin-friendly turf products.
