A time domain approach for avoiding crosstalk in optical blocking multistage interconnection networks (1994)

Crosstalk in multistage interconnection networks can be avoided by ensuring that a switch is not used by two connections simultaneously, in order to support crosstalk-free communications among N inputs and N outputs, a space domain approach dilates an N/spl times/N network into one that is essentially equivalent to a 2N/spl times/2N network. Path conflicts, however may still exist in dilated networks. This paper proposes a time domain approach for avoiding crosstalk. Such an approach can be regarded as "dilating" a network in time, instead of space. More specifically, the connections that need to use the same switch are established during different time slots. This way, path conflicts are automatically avoided. The time domain dilation is useful for overcoming the limits on the network size while utilizing the high bandwidth of optical interconnects. We study the set of permutations whose crosstalk-free connections can be established in just two time slots using the time domain approach. While the space domain approach trades hardware complexity for crosstalk-free communications, the time domain approach trades time complexity. We compare the proposed time domain to the space domain approach by analyzing the tradeoffs involved in these two approaches.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

The high throughput and excellent reproducibility of the method ensured exhaustive and precise coverage of the 16S rDNA bacterial variants present in mouse tissues. This optimized 16S metagenomic sequencing pipeline will allow the scientific community to catalogue the bacterial DNA profiles of different tissues and will provide a database to analyse host/bacterial interactions in relation to homeostasis and disease.
Microstructures pour l'acquisition et l'interprétation de signaux physiologiques (2002)

Une des approches thérapeutiques du contrôle de la glycémie chez les patients diabètiques, est le couplage d'un capteur de glucose à une pompe à insuline afin d'assurer une régulation continue de la concentration sanguine de glucose. A ce jour, de nombreux algorithmes permettent un tel couplage, cependant peu de capteurs assurent un suivi précis de la glycémie. Les îlots de Langerhans assurent ce rôle de glucomètre in vivo. Ces micro-organes générent une activité électrique fonction de la concentration de glucose avoisinante. Dans le but de concevoir un glucomètre précis et continu, nous avons évalué la possibilité de créer un "biocapteur cellulaire" dans lequel les îlots pancréatiques feraient office de capteur.Ce travail pluridisciplinaire a posé les bases de cette instrumentation, grâce à la mise au point de microstructures 3D permettant le recueil de l'activité électrique extracellulaire des îlots de Langerhans.

Alimentation des juvéniles de<i>Silurus glanis</i>en élevage intensif (1995)

L'elevage intensif des stades juveniles de Silurus glanis ne s'est developpe en France que depuis 1987-1988. La methode habituelle en Europe centrale (Krasnai et al., 1980; Horvath et al., 1984) consiste a distribuer aux alevins, pendant les deux premieres semaines d'elevage, des morceaux de Tubifex (Annelides, Oligochetes). En 1988, la possibilite de nourrir les alevins de Silure glane avec un aliment artificiel de bonne qualite etait demontree a la fois a l'echelle d'un pilote (station d'experimentations du CEMAGREF) et celle de la production.
Genetic and Biological Properties of HIV Type 1 Isolates Prevalent in Villagers of the Cameroon Equatorial Rain Forests and Grass Fields: Further Evidence of Broad HIV Type 1 Genetic Diversity (2003)

To understand the evolution of HIV-1, the genetic and biological characteristics of viruses that infect persons living in regions in which the virus has been evolving for several decades must be studied. Thus, we investigated teh genetic subtypes, coreceptor usage, and syncytium-inducing ability of viruses in 47 HIV-1-infected blood samples from individuals living in rural villages in the equatorial rain forest and grass field regions in Cameroon. Heteroduplex mobility analysis (HMA) of gag (part of p24 and p7) and env (C2V5) or sequence and phylogenetic analysis of gag (part of p24 and p7), pol (protease), and env (C2V5), revealed a broad HIV-1 group M genetic diversity. Subtype analysis revealed genetic evidence of seven subtypes (A, C, D, F, G, H, and J) and three circulating recombinant froms (CRFs) (CRF01_AE, CRF02_AG, and CRF11_cpx). Only 15 (32%) of the 47 samples analyzed revealed a concordant subtype in all three genes (gag, pol, and env), while discordant subtypes and CRFs were identified for the remaining 32 (68%) samples. Two patterns of HIV-1 diversity could be discerned in two provinces. While more concordant subtypes in gag, pol, and env genes were identified in villages of South province (10 of 13, 77%), the HIV-1 diversity in the West province was characterized by intersubtype recombinants (63%). Five new intersubtype recombinants were identified including Agag Jpol Genv, Ggag Upol Aenv, AGgag Jpol Aenv, Agag AGpol Henv, and Cgag AGpol AGenv. All of the 40 viruses tested used the R5 coreceptor, of which four also used the X4 coreceptor. Four viruses were able to induce syncytia in MT-2 cells, however, syncytium induction did not correlate with coreceptor usage. This study further reveals the complexity of HIV-1 infection in rural Cameron and points to the future of the global epidemic, which may be characterized by more genetically diverse viruses.
Psychotropic Effects of Antiepileptic Drugs (2005)

Antiepileptic drugs are important psychotropic agents that are commonly used to treat psychiatric disorders. The behavioral effects of antiepileptic drugs may differ between epilepsy and psychiatric patient populations. Randomized, double-blind, controlled data on the psychotropic efficacy of antiepileptic drugs are limited mainly to bipolar disorder.
Behavioral modeling and simulation of a mixed analog/digital automatic gain control loop in a 5 GHz WLAN receiver (2003)

Wireless LAN (WLAN), operating in the 5-6 GHz range, become commercially viable only if they can be produced at low cost. Consequently, tight integration of the physical layer, consisting of the radio front-end and the digital signal processing part, is a must. Especially with respect to mixed-signal feedback loops, with automatic gain control as a recurring example, existing tools have major difficulties in offering efficient ways of modeling and simulation. We present a modeling approach where the complexity of the analog behavioral model has been reduced to the minimum required by the digital receiver, namely its steady-state responses and a 'worst-case' time delay. Moreover, we show how this mixed-signal receiver model can be used in an end-to-end communication link simulation to provide the designer insight into statistical information such as transient delays and gain tolerances. For this model, we set up a co-simulation of two existing in-house tools, one for the analog part, the other for the digital system part.
99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in healthy and 6-OHDA lesioned parkinsonian monkeys: comparison with 18F-FDOPA PET (2003)

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway, leading to a selective loss of dopamine in the striatum. 99mTc-TRODAT-1 is a recently developed radiotracer that selectively binds to the dopamine transporters, which are significant because loss of these transporters corresponds with a loss of dopaminergic neurons. The present investigation compared 99mTc-TRODAT-1 single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 18F-FDOPA positron emission tomography (PET) in the evaluation of PD using a primate model. Three monkeys, including one 6-hydroxydopamine lesioned PD model and two controls, were examined by both 99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT and 18F-FDOPA PET. For the PD monkey, expression of parkinsonian behaviour and 18F-FDOPA PET were used to evaluate the severity of the lesion. 99Tc-TRODAT-1 was prepared from a lyophilized kit. After intravenous injection of the radiotracer, SPECT was acquired over 4 h using a dual-head camera equipped with ultra-high resolution fan-beam collimators. Both uptake measurement and visual assessment were performed. Data were compared with motor behaviour and PET imaging. The striatal uptake in both healthy and PD monkeys increased continuously during the study, although the gradient of increase was less prominent in the diseased monkey. The increased uptake in the controls appeared to become blunt around 4 h after injection. A profound decrease of 99Tc-TRODAT-1 uptake was found in the striatum of the PD monkey compared with the controls (0.91 vs 2.16). In the PD monkey, the decrease of striatal uptake contralateral to the more affected side of the body was more prominent compared to the ipsilateral side (0.77 vs 1.06). In addition, greater loss occurred in the contralateral side of the putamen (0.54 vs 1.04). Changes of uptake ratios in the striatum and its subnuclei of the PD monkey were significantly correlated with those measured from PET. The loss of striatal uptake appeared greater in SPECT than the corresponding PET with both visual and uptake analyses. In conclusion, our data in a limited series of cases indicate that 99Tc-TRODAT-1 with a conventional nuclear medicine camera system may provide a suitable tool in evaluating parkinsonism in a primate model.

International electronic health record-derived post-acute sequelae profiles of COVID-19 patients (2022)

The risk profiles of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) have not been well characterized in multi-national settings with appropriate controls. We leveraged electronic health record (EHR) data from 277 international hospitals representing 414,602 patients with COVID-19, 2.3 million control patients without COVID-19 in the inpatient and outpatient settings, and over 221 million diagnosis codes to systematically identify new-onset conditions enriched among patients with COVID-19 during the post-acute period. Compared to inpatient controls, inpatient COVID-19 cases were at significant risk for angina pectoris (RR 1.30, 95% CI 1.09-1.55), heart failure (RR 1.22, 95% CI 1.10-1.35), cognitive dysfunctions (RR 1.18, 95% CI 1.07-1.31), and fatigue (RR 1.18, 95% CI 1.07-1.30). Relative to outpatient controls, outpatient COVID-19 cases were at risk for pulmonary embolism (RR 2.10, 95% CI 1.58-2.76), venous embolism (RR 1.34, 95% CI 1.17-1.54), atrial fibrillation (RR 1.30, 95% CI 1.13-1.50), type 2 diabetes (RR 1.26, 95% CI 1.16-1.36) and vitamin D deficiency (RR 1.19, 95% CI 1.09-1.30). Outpatient COVID-19 cases were also at risk for loss of smell and taste (RR 2.42, 95% CI 1.90-3.06), inflammatory neuropathy (RR 1.66, 95% CI 1.21-2.27), and cognitive dysfunction (RR 1.18, 95% CI 1.04-1.33). The incidence of post-acute cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions decreased across time among inpatient cases while the incidence of cardiovascular, digestive, and metabolic conditions increased among outpatient cases. Our study, based on a federated international network, systematically identified robust conditions associated with PASC compared to control groups, underscoring the multifaceted cardiovascular and neurological phenotype profiles of PASC.

The waveguide below-cutoff attenuation standard (1997)

A semitutorial review of the history, development, and application of waveguide below-cutoff (WBCO) attenuation standards is presented. A brief summary of the electromagnetic (EM) theory is followed by descriptions of the various designs implemented over a span of 60 years. Designs range from simplistic to elaborate electromechanical creations that stretch the toolmaker's art yet are ultimately dependent upon the primary standard of length.
Performance of carrot seeds possessing different germination rates within a seed lot (1988)

Summary The relationship between germination rate within a carrot seed lot and subsequent seedling performance was studied in four seed lots of different viability. Seedling performance was assessed using slope tests conducted under controlled conditions and in the field following fluid drilling under a range of environmental conditions. Germination rate within a seed lot was positively related to vigour measured by slope tests, percentage emergence and seedling weight, and was negatively related to the spread of emergence times (In variance days) and the coefficient of variation (c.v.) of seedling weights. Sowing seeds selected as fast germinating resulted in greater seedling emergence percentages over a range of environmental conditions than when sowing seeds selected as slowly germinating.
Three-Dimensional Flow of a Newtonian Liquid Through an Annular Space with Axially Varying Eccentricity (2005)

Flow in annular space occurs in drilling operation of oil and gas wells. The correct prediction of the flow of the drilling mud in the annular space between the well wall and the drill pipe is essential to determine the variation in the mud pressure within the wellbore, the frictional pressure drop, and the efficiency of the transport of the rock drill cuttings. A complete analysis of this situation is extremely complex: the inner cylinder is usually rotating, the wellbore wall will depart significantly from cylindrical, the drill pipe is eccentric, and the eccentricity varies along the well. A complete analysis of this situation would require the solution of the three-dimensional momentum equation and would be computationally expensive and complex. Models available in the literature to study this situation do consider the rotation of the inner cylinder and the non-Newtonian behavior of the drilling fluids, but assume the relative position of the inner with respect to the outer cylinders fixed, i.e., they neglect the variation of the eccentricity along the length of the well, and the flow is considered to be fully developed. This approximation leads to a two-dimensional model to determine the three components of the velocity field in a cross-section of the annulus. The model presented in this work takes into account the variation of the eccentricity along the well; a more appropriate description of the geometric configuration of directional wells. As a consequence, the velocity field varies along the well length and the resulting flow model is three-dimensional. Lubrication theory is used to simplify the governing equations into a two-dimensional differential equation that describes the pressure field. The results show the effect of the variation of the eccentricity on the friction factor, maximum and minimum axial velocity in each cross section, and the presence of azimuthal flow even when the inner cylinder is not rotating.
Prediction of retail product weight and percentage using ultrasound and carcass measurements in beef cattle (2003)

Data from 534 steers representing six sire breed groups were used to develop live animal ultrasound prediction equations for weight and percentage of retail product. Steers were ultrasonically measured for 12th-rib fat thickness (UFAT), rump fat thickness (URPFAT), longissimus muscle area (ULMA), and body wall thickness (UBDWALL) within 5 d before slaughter. Carcass measurements included in USDA yield grade (YG) and quality grade calculations were obtained. Carcasses were fabricated into boneless, totally trimmed retail products. Regression equations to predict weight and percentage of retail product were developed using either live animal or carcass traits as independent variables. Most of the variation in weight of retail product was accounted for by live weight (FWT) and carcass weight with R2 values of 0.66 and 0.69, respectively. Fat measurements accounted for the largest portion of the variation in percentage of retail product when used as single predictors (R2 = 0.54, 0.44, 0.23, and 0.54 for UFAT, URPFAT, UBDWALL, and carcass fat, respectively). Final models (P < 0.10) using live animal variables included FWT, UFAT, ULMA, and URPFAT for retail product weight (R2 = 0.84) and UFAT, URPFAT, ULMA, UBDWALL, and FWT for retail product percentage (R2 = 0.61). Comparatively, equations using YG variables resulted in R2 values of 0.86 and 0.65 for weight and percentage of retail product, respectively. Results indicate that live animal equations using ultrasound measurements are similar in accuracy to carcass measurements for predicting beef carcass composition, and alternative ultrasound measurements of rump fat and body wall thickness enhance the predictive capability of live animal-based equations for retail yield.
Nucleotide sequence of two<i>Clostridium thermosulfurogenes</i>EM1 genes homologous to<i>Escherichia coli</i>genes encoding integral membrane components of binding protein-dependent transport systems (1991)

The complete nucleotide sequence of two genes from Clostridium thermosulfurogenes EM1 homologous to E. coli genes encoding transport proteins was determined by the dideoxy procedure. The genes were cloned from plasmid pCT4, which contains the alpha-amylase gene from C. thermosulfurogenes EM1 as a 2.9-kbp XbaI fragment, inserted into the XbaI site of pUC18, to yield plasmid pCT401. The proteins encoded by the two identified complete ORFs are very hydrophobic and thus are probably integral membrane proteins. They show over 50% similarity to the maltose transport proteins MalF and MalG and to the glycerol-3-phosphate uptake proteins UgpA and UgpE of Escherichia coli. Since these genes are located immediately upstream of the alpha-amylase gene (amyA) of C. thermosulfurogenes EM1, the encoded proteins might be involved in transport of starch degradation products. The genes were tentatively designated amyC and amyD.
Development and evaluation of supercritical fluid chromatography/mass spectrometry for polar and high-molecular-weight coal components: Technical progress report, October 1, 1986-September 30, 1987 (1988)

This program, Development and Evaluation of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry for Polar and High-Molecular-Weight Coal Components, is aimed at the development of new analytical technologies for the characterization of previously intractable complex mixtures. The specific goals of this program are twofold: (1) to develop and evaluate a combined high-resolution, capillary column, supercritical fluid chromatograph/high-performance mass spectrometer (SFC/MS) that is capable of analyzing high-molecular-weight materials, such as polar and heavy-end components found in coal conversion processes; and (2) to use this system to develop and evaluate analytical technology applicable to coal process development technology. Studies have been conducted to characterize the performance of the supercritical fluid chromatograph-mass spectrometer interface, and several modifications have been made to the probe, ion source, and associated hardware to improve performance and operator safety. Methods have been developed that allow the mass calibration of the magnetic sector mass spectrometer to 1400 daltons using desorption chemical ionization. Methodologies have been improved for fabricating capillary columns with bonded, crosslinked stationary phases suitable for use with polar fluids. Coal-derived materials and fossil-fuel-derived sediments have been investigated with supercritical fluid chromatograph/mass spectrometry and supercritical fluid extraction/mass spectrometry. Microbore packed columns coupled to a modified mass spectrometer interface allowed the chemical class fractionation of relatively polar complex mixtures derived from coal liquefaction. 6 refs., 12 figs.
Investigation of the formation of quasicrystalline Al70-Pd20-Re10 phase in situ during annealing (2011)

The change in the phase composition of thin-film layered AlPdRe nanostructures during annealing, which led to the formation of a quasicrystalline layer, has been studied in situ. It is shown that the Al3Pd phase is formed at a temperature above 260°C, which transforms into the AlPd phase at 580°C, and the icosahedral quasicrystalline Al-Pd-Re phase is formed at 680°C.
