Assuring Academic Standards in Oral Health Education (2010)

Oral health educators aim to improve academic standards, provide higher quality learning and teaching, and produce work-ready, competent and safe dental practitioners. In 2003, the four educational providers in Australia produced 23 oral health therapists, 52 dental hygienists and 24 dental therapists - 99 in total (Australasian Council of Dental Schools, 2010). In 2009, the ten educational providers in Australia produced 128 oral health therapists, 86 dental hygienists and 12 dental therapists - 226 in total (Australasian Council of Dental Schools, 2010). This is an increase in graduates of 128%. So, there more pressures to do everything better, but there are also pressures to do more. This report will outline some of the main pressures in the tertiary and Vocational Education and Training (VET) sectors that will impact on our profession. Examples of the pressures from the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency, the Australian Learning and Teaching Council, Competency based education, the Dental Board of Australia and the Australian Dental Council will also be provided.
The relation of homework type to achievement and retention of students enrolled in intermediate algebra (2008)

The primary purpose of the dissertation was to determine if there were significant differences in academic achievement of Intermediate Algebra students who have been assigned online homework and Intermediate Algebra students who have been assigned traditional homework from the course textbook. A quasi—experimental pretest—posttest nonrandomized research design was used to test the hypothesis of this study.
The control group used in this study consisted of 72 community college students who were assigned homework from the textbook. The experimental group consisted of 91 community college students who were assigned online homework. An analysis of covariance was use to analyze differences between achievement of the two groups. The results indicated that there is not a statistically significant difference (F = 3.80, p = .054) between the achievement of the groups. However, the effect size obtained (Δ = +0.34) indicated that achievement differences between the groups is educationally significant. Retention rates between groups were analyzed using the chi-square test and indicated no significant differences (χ2 = 0.61, p = .433) in retention rates between the groups.
Elastomeric polymer resonant waveguide grating based pressure sensor (2014)

In this paper, we demonstrate an elastomeric polymer resonant waveguide grating structure to be used as a pressure sensor. The applied pressure is measured by optical resonance spectrum peak shift. The sensitivity - as high as 86.74pm/psi or 12.58pm/kPa - has been experimentally obtained from a fabricated sensor. Potentially, the sensitivity of the demonstrated sensor can be tuned to different pressure ranges by the choices of elastic properties and layer thicknesses of the waveguide and cladding layers. The simulation results agree well with experimental results and indicate that the dominant effect on the sensor is the change of grating period when external pressure is applied. Based on the two-dimensional planar structure, the demonstrated sensor can be used to measure applied surface pressure optically, which has potential applications for optical ultrasound imaging and pressure wave detection/mapping.
Structure of the human pancreatic cholesterol esterase gene (1992)

The gene for human pancreatic cholesterol esterase consists of 11 exons and 10 introns and is 9.2 kb in length. The last and longest exon (841 nucleotides) is unique to the human gene. Functional amino acids are encoded on separate exons. The leader sequence is encoded by a single exon which carries two additional N-terminal amino acids of the mature functional protein. A positive TATA element is identified 43 nucleotides from the start codon. Pulse-field gel electrophoresis and hybridization with various cDNA probes and direct sequence data revealed the existence of a CEase-like gene. Partial sequence analysis of this gene from a human cosmid library and human genomic DNA showed a premature stop signal in exon 10, shortly after the codon for the active-site histidine. Both the functional gene and the CEase-like gene have a polyadenylation signal in the 3'-untranslated region. Thus, the complex gene structure for this intestinally active enzyme may provide in part a potential molecular explanation for the well-known heterogeneity of the intestinal absorption of cholesterol.
Decoding of linear codes over Galois rings (2001)

We present a method for decoding an arbitrary linear code over a Galois ring /spl Rscr/ by a process of lifting decoding algorithms for a family of linear codes over a finite field /spl Kscr/ forming an /spl alpha/-element chain, where /spl Kscr/ is the quotient field of /spl Rscr/ and /spl Rscr/ has characteristic p/sup /spl alpha//. As a new result, this method also works for linear codes over /spl Rscr/ which are nonfree /spl Rscr/-modules.
Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque metalloproteinases and foam cell phenotypes (2009)

Plaque rupture underlies most myocardial infarctions. Plaques vulnerable to rupture have thin fibrous caps, an excess of macrophages over vascular smooth muscle cells, large lipid cores, and depletion of collagen and other matrix proteins form the cap and lipid core. Production of matrix metalloproteinases from macrophages is prominent in human plaques, and studies in genetically modified mice imply a causative role for metalloproteinases in plaque vulnerability. Recent in-vitro studies on human monocyte-derived macrophages and on foam-cell macrophages generated in vivo suggest the existence of several macrophage phenotypes with distinct patterns of metalloproteinase expression. These phenotypes could play differing roles in cap, core and aneurysm formation.

A Clinical Evaluation of Serum Ferritin as an Index of Iron Stores (1974)

Abstract Measurements of serum ferritin were correlated with other hematologic laboratory indexes in 250 hospitalized subjects with anemia or disorders in iron metabolism. A geometric mean value of 4 ng per milliliter was found in 32 patients with uncomplicated iron-deficiency anemia, and one of 2930 ng per milliliter in 23 with iron overload. Among subjects with anemia from causes otherthan iron deficiency, the mean serum ferritin level was increased to 180 ng per milliliter (geometric mean in normal controls, 59 ng per milliliter, with a 95 per cent confidence range of 12 to 300 ng per milliliter), presumably reflecting the transport of red-cell iron to stores. The wide range of values found was shown to be related primarily to the magnitude of body iron stores in each case as evaluated by bone-marrow hemosiderin. In addition, however, inflammation, liver disease and increased red-cell turnover were shown to elevate the serum ferritin concentration to a degree disproportionate to that of iron stores. (N...
Reflection of CO2 Laser Radiation From Laser-Resistant Endotracheal Tubes (1991)

To assess the possibility of indirect damage by CO2 laser reflection from specialized or modified tracheal tubes, four different tracheal tubes were studied. They were (1) a Rusch red rubber tracheal tube wrapped with 3M No. 425 aluminum foil tape, (2) a Rusch red rubber tracheal tube wrapped with Venture copper foil tape, (3) a polyvinylchloride tracheal tube wrapped with Laser-Guard protective coating, and (4) a Mallinckrodt Laser-Flex tracheal tube. The tracheal tubes were straightened and centered within cardboard cylinders and the laser set to 40 W was aimed to reflect from the tracheal tubes onto the cardboard. The times to combustion perforating the cardboard cylinders because of laser reflection were 1.41 +/- 0.54 (mean +/- SD), 1.73 +/- 0.93, 3.70 +/- 2.18, and 9.26 +/- 3.40 s for tracheal tubes 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The differences between the times to combustion with tracheal tubes 3 and 1, 3 and 2, 4 and 1, 4 and 2, and finally, 4 and 3 were statistically significant. We conclude that the Laser-Guard-wrapped polyvinylchloride tracheal tube and the Mallinckrodt Laser-Flex tracheal tube were less reflective of incident CO2 laser radiation than the copper or aluminum-foil-wrapped red rubber tracheal tubes.

A probability-based approach to VLSI circuit partitioning (1996)

Iterative-improvement 2-way min-cut partitioning is an important phase in most circuit partitioning tools. Most iterative improvement techniques for circuit netlists like the Fidducia-Mattheyses (FM) method compute the gains of nodes using local netlist information that is only concerned with the immediate improvement in the cutset. This can lead to misleading gain calculations. Krishnamurthy suggested a lookahead (LA) gain calculation method to ameliorate this situation; however, as we show, it leaves considerable room for improvement. We present here a probabilistic gain computation approach called PROP that is capable of capturing the global and future implications of moving a node at the current time. Experimental results show that for the same number of runs, PROP performs much better than FM (by about 30%) and LA (by about 27%), and is also better than many recent state-of-the-art clustering-based partitioners like EIG1, WINDOW, MELO and PARABOLI by 15% to 57%. We also show that the space and time complexities of PROP are very reasonable. Our empirical timing results reveal that it is appreciably faster than the above clustering-based techniques, and only a little slower than FM and LA, both of which are very fast.

Accounting for individual differences through GAMES (1997)

Multimedia communication is influenced by increasing complexity and reach of information and by a rapidly growing user population. Due to these developments average authors of electronically published media have little expert knowledge in multimedia presentations. They are also confronted with considerable individual differences of recipients in culture, social life, education, psychology and physiology. In order to compensate for these shortcomings it is necessary to integrate interpretation and interaction abilities of individual users into future presentation and editing systems. We are developing a chart editing system which generates critics by user request. These critics are based on a user model, on expert knowledge in chart editing and on the currently edited chart. The system helps the author to avoid commonly made mistakes. It empowers recipients to adjust certain parameters (e.g.: colors) to their individual abilities and needs.
A PRELIMINARY STUDY OF THE REACTIONS BETWEEN TUNGSTEN CARBIDE AND TUNGSTEN CARBIDE - 6% COBALT POWDERS AND WET AND DRY HYDROGEN (1961)

The apparent activation energy for the following reactions has been determined by measuring the amount of carbon removed from samples of powder heated to various temperatures in an atmosphere of either dry or wet hydrogen:Dry Hydrogen“As-carburized” tungsten carbide: no reaction up to 900°C.Water–milled tungsten carbide: 8·38 kcal/mole over the range 600–900°C.Water–milled tungsten carbide+ 6% cobalt: complex reaction over the range 600–900°C.Wet Hydrogen“As-carburized” tungsten carbide: 58·1 kcal/mole over the range 800–900°C.Water–milled tungsten carbide: 34·8 kcal/mole over the range 700–900°C.Water–milled tungsten carbide+ 6% cobalt: 38·4 kcal/mole over the range 825–900°C; 7·38 kcal/mole over the range 600–800°C.It has been shown that ball-milling in water changes both the physical and chemical properties of tungsten carbide powder. These changes are discussed in relation to the marked differences in reaction rates. A number of possible reasons for these differences are given.
Cytogenetical observations in human benign uterine leiomyomas. (1988)

Detailed observations by banding technique in 21 cultured human benign uterine leiomyomas are reported. More than half of the tumors (51%) had a primary or secondary abnormal stemline. The abnormal stemlines were usually characterized only by structural changes, in particular reciprocal translocations. These translocations, as well as instances of inversions, predominantly affected the chromosome types Nos. 1,2 and 12 and preferentially the regions 1p36, 2p24 and 12q14-15. Available data concerning cytogenetical deviations in benign human tumor types indicate that, in contrast to most malignant neoplasms, they are characterized by comparatively few and simple, either numerical or, more frequently, structural changes. The biological implications of these deviations are rapidly emerging as one of the most urgent areas for future studies with molecular techniques.
Multistage speaker diarization of broadcast news (2006)

This paper describes recent advances in speaker diarization with a multistage segmentation and clustering system, which incorporates a speaker identification step. This system builds upon the baseline audio partitioner used in the LIMSI broadcast news transcription system. The baseline partitioner provides a high cluster purity, but has a tendency to split data from speakers with a large quantity of data into several segment clusters. Several improvements to the baseline system have been made. First, the iterative Gaussian mixture model (GMM) clustering has been replaced by a Bayesian information criterion (BIC) agglomerative clustering. Second, an additional clustering stage has been added, using a GMM-based speaker identification method. Finally, a post-processing stage refines the segment boundaries using the output of a transcription system. On the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) RT-04F and ESTER evaluation data, the multistage system reduces the speaker error by over 70% relative to the baseline system, and gives between 40% and 50% reduction relative to a single-stage BIC clustering system
The human factor (1996)

Defining the core activity of psychiatric nursing is helpful if the discipline seeks professionalization. A definition offers a sense of stability within the current culture of change in care provision. However, core activity may be incongruent with postmodern ideas and practice. The paper attempts to square this circle. It addresses the complexity of describing core activity when this is based on implicit knowledge of practice, based in art rather than science. Using a phenomenological research approach, the research involved encouraging psychiatric nurses within residential schemes to consider the meaning of their concrete activity. Initial findings suggest that the core activity is working with extraordinary people within 'ordinary' relationships, and in 'ordinary' contexts.
An effective interaction control mechanism with minor step for multidisciplinary collaborative simulation system (2010)

Collaborative simulation is an important technology for complex engineering systems. The challenges of collaborative simulation are especially in model integration, interaction control and time advancement where a variety of collaborative disciplinary subsystems for time-synchronized running are handled dynamically in a distributed environment. In this paper, the formulized paradigm of multidisciplinary collaborative simulation for complex engineering systems is principally analyzed. A strategy for collaborative simulation in a distributed environment is proposed to implement an integrated framework leveraging HLA and web services technology. A minor-step-based interaction algorithm is presented to improve the precision. The interaction model definition and I/O data processing mechanism of the adaptor is studied. The prototype system and case studies are developed to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.
An analytical comparison of block error rate performance for wireline data modulation standards in a variably fading Ricean analog cellular channel (2003)

The transmission of data in a mobile analog cellular environment is sometimes accomplished by using a modem standardized for the wireline environment and the relative performance of these standards is sometimes in question. The average error probability of 400 bit blocks is estimated analytically as a function of mobile velocity by assuming that the correlation coefficient of the received signal envelope has a rectangular shape with a width of one channel coherence time. Individual comparisons and trends are reported.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Multi-constraint information management and visualisation for collaborative planning and control in construction (2003)

In complex and concurrent construction projects, reliable planning becomes a centre for effective collaboration across upstream supply chains and downstream operations at the work face. Thousands of literatures in construction planning have been published over the past 50 years; introducing, testing, and implementing mountain of techniques and tools. However, they are very fragmented and have not yet provided a universal system that remedies a typical problem of separation of execution from planning. To solve this puzzle, this paper introduced a new methodology called 'multi-constraint planning', which possesses five superior characteristics including (1) collaborative and multi-level planning; (2) multi-constraint consideration; (3) effective uncertainty handling; (4) appropriate visual representation; and (5) practicable optimisation. An integrated decision support system that incorporates web-based and mobile information management system, 4D-visualisation system, and evolutionary optimisation system is successfully developed as an enabler for implementation of the proposed methodology. The two modules of information management and visualisation are detailed and demonstrated in the paper. It is envisaged that successful implementation of this system will enable generation of reliable plans and constraint-free execution assignments, in turn, reduce production risks and improve on-site productivity.
Di-, Tri-, and Tetranuclear Zinc Hydroxamate Complexes as Structural Models for the Inhibition of Zinc Hydrolases by Hydroxamic Acids (2006)

Attempts to produce Zn analogues of the structural model complexes [M2(mu-O2CR)2(O2CR)2(mu-H2O)(tmen)2] (M = Ni, Co, Mn; R = CH(3), C(CH3)3, CF3) by the reaction of a series of zinc carboxylates with N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmen), resulted in the mononuclear complexes [Zn(OAc)(2)(tmen)] (1) and [Zn(crot)2(tmen)].(0.5)H2O (2) for R = CH3 and (CH)2CH3, respectively, and the dinuclear complexes [Zn(2)(mu-piv)(2)(piv)(2)(mu-H2O)(tmen)2] (3) and [Zn2(mu-OAc(F))2(OAc(F))2(mu-H2O)(tmen)2] (4) for R = C(CH3)3 and CF3, respectively. In contrast to the analogous imidazole series, i.e., [M2(mu-O2CR)2(O2CR)2(mu-H2O)(Im)4] (M = Ni, Co, Mn; R = CH3, C(CH3)3, CF3), zinc carboxylates react with imidazole to give only the mononuclear complexes [Zn(OAc)2(Im)2] (5), [Zn(crot)2(Im)2].H2O (6), [Zn(piv)2(Im)2].(0.5)H2O (7), and [Zn(OAc(F))2(Im)2] (8). Reaction of 1, 2, and 3 with either acetohydroxamic acid (AHA) or benzohydroxamic acid (BHA) gives the dinuclear complexes [Zn2(O2CR)3(R'A)(tmen)], where R'A = acetohydroxamate (AA) (9, 10, 11) or benzohydroxamate (BA) (13, 14, 15). In these complexes, the zinc atoms are bridged by a single hydroxamate and two carboxylates, with a capping tmen ligand on one zinc and a monodentate carboxylate bonded to the second zinc atom. This composition models closely the observed structure of the active site of the p-iodo-d-phenylalanine hydroxamic acid inhibited Aeromonas proteolyticaaminopeptidase enzyme. In contrast, 4 reacts with AHA to give [Zn2(OAc(F))3(tmen)2(AA)] (12) with an additional tmen ligand so that both Zn atoms are 6-coordinate, whereas reaction with BHA gives the trinuclear complex [Zn3(OAc(F))4(tmen)2(BA)2] (16). Reactions of 3 and 4 with glutarodihydroxamic acid (GluH2A2) produce the tetranuclear complexes [Zn4(piv)6(tmen)4(GluA2)] (18) and [Zn4(OAc(F))6(tmen)4(GluA2)] (19).
