Cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death in cultured human gastric carcinoma cells mediated by arsenic trioxide (2005)

As2O3 can induce apoptosis of human gastric carcinoma cells MKN45, which is the basis of its effectiveness. It shows great potential in the treatment of gastric carcinoma.
Oral Versus Intravenous Rehydration of Moderately Dehydrated Children: A Randomized, Controlled Trial (2005)

This trial demonstrated that ORT is as effective as IVF for rehydration of moderately dehydrated children due to gastroenteritis in the emergency department. ORT demonstrated noninferiority for successful rehydration at 4 hours and hospitalization rate. Additionally, therapy was initiated more quickly for ORT patients. ORT seems to be a preferred treatment option for patients with moderate dehydration from gastroenteritis.
Criança, negligência e saúde oral (2013)

Introducao: O Estatuto da Crianca e Adolescente determina que a crianca tenha direito a protecao a vida e a saude, atraves de politicas publicas que permitam seu desenvolvimento sadio e harmonioso. No entanto, a carie continua sendo um grave problema, comprometendo este desenvolvimento. Dentre os fatores associados a prevalencia de carie em criancas esta a falta de cuidado dos pais, caracterizando negligencia. Objetivos: Entretanto, apesar do possivel vinculo entre a prevalencia de carie dentaria e a existencia da negligencia, pouco se sabe sobre a relacao entre estes, que e o objetivo maior da presente pesquisa. Metodologia ou Descricao da Experiencia: Estudo com abordagem quantitativa, o qual se deu em dois momentos. No primeiro todas as criancas de cinco anos do municipio de Pacoti, Ceara, foram submetidas a exames bucais e exame fisico. No segundo momento dois grupos foram separados: um grupo-controle, com os pais/cuidadores das criancas com baixo ceo-d, e um outro grupo com pais/cuidadores das criancas com alto indice ceo-d. Em ambos os grupos foi realizada entrevista baseada em um questionario semi-estruturado. Resultados: 149 exames fisicos e bucais. Ceo-d de 2,75±2,83, 16 criancas tiveram valores altos (ceo-d≥7), 48 baixos (ceo-d=0) e 85, intermediarios-altos (1≤ceo-d≥6). Associacoes (p>0,05) foram encontradas entre higiene geral e higiene das unhas e dos cabelos, entre ceo-d e motivo da ultima consulta e entre numero de dentes cariados e classificacao do entrevistado a saude bucal da crianca. Houve uma tendencia de associacao (0,050,1) entre higiene geral e numero de dentes cariados, higiene geral e indice de experiencia de carie, indice de experiencia de carie e quantidade de vezes que a crianca escova os dentes, indice de experiencia de carie e saude bucal afeta relacionamento da crianca na escola. Conclusao ou Hipoteses: Podemos concluir que houve relacao entre o indice ceo-d; a percepcao dos pais/cuidadores sobre a saude bucal de seus filhos; o acesso das criancas de cinco anos de idade a atencao odontologica e os fatores de risco e alteracoes sugestivas de ato negligenciador. Ninguem relatou dificuldade de acesso ao servico como justificativa para a crianca nao ter ido ao dentista durante sua vida

Lipoabdominoplasty Without Drains or Progressive Tension Sutures: An Analysis of 100 Consecutive Patients (2015)

The use of discontinuous undermining with liposuction, limited direct undermining in the midline, preservation of a thin layer of fibrofatty tissue on the superficial abdominal wall fascia, and targeted surgical site compression can eliminate the need for surgical drains without increasing seroma rates.
Formulation and ex vivo evaluation of rofecoxib gel for topical application. (2008)

The potential gastrointestinal disorders associated with oral administration of rofecoxib can be avoided by delivering the drug to the inflammation site at a sustained, concentrated level over an extended period of time. Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), sodium alginate and Carbopol 940 were used in an attempt to develop topical gel formulations of rofecoxib. The effects of polymer composition on the rate of drug release from the gel formulations were examined through cellulose membrane mounting on a Keshary-Chien diffusion cell. The effects of initial drug concentration and viscosity on the permeation rate of rofecoxib from the gel formulations were evaluated using rat epidermis at 37 +/- 0.5 degrees C. The anti-inflammatory activity of the rofecoxib gel formulation was evaluated using the rat hind paw edema model. The gel formulation consisting of 4% w/w sodium alginate-Carbopol 940 at 3:1 ratio was found to be suitable for topical application based on in vitro evaluation and ex vivo permeation studies. The drug permeation rate increased with an increase of the initial drug concentration in gels up to 25% w/w. An inverse relationship was observed between the in vitro drug release rate/ex vivo permeation rate and viscosity of the gel formulations. The anti-inflammatory activity of 4% w/w sodium alginate-Carbopol 940 gel containing 25% w/w rofecoxib in the rat hind paw edema model reveals that the drug was delivered to the inflammation site at a controlled level over a period of 6 h. These results suggest the feasibility of the topical gel formulation of rofecoxib.
Two Arabidopsis Homologs of Human Lysine-Specific Demethylase Function in Epigenetic Regulation of Plant Defense Responses (2021)

Epigenetic marks such as covalent histone modification and DNA methylation are crucial for mitotically and meiotically inherited cellular memory-based plant immunity. However, the roles of individual players in the epigenetic regulation of plant immunity are not fully understood. Here we reveal the functions of two <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i> homologs of human lysine-specific demethylase1-like1, LDL1 and LDL2, in the maintenance of methyl groups at lysine 4 of histone H3 and in plant immunity to <i>Pseudomonas syringae</i> infection. The growth of virulent <i>P. syringae</i> strains was reduced in <i>ldl1</i> and <i>ldl2</i> single mutants compared to wild-type plants. Local and systemic disease resistance responses, which coincided with the rapid, robust transcription of defense-related genes, were more stably expressed in <i>ldl1 ldl2</i> double mutants than in the single mutants. At the nucleosome level, mono-methylated histone H3K4 accumulated in <i>ldl1 ldl2</i> plants genome-wide and in the mainly promoter regions of the defense-related genes examined in this study. Furthermore, <i>in silico</i> comparative analysis of RNA-sequencing and chromatin immunoprecipitation data suggested that several WRKY transcription factors, <i>e.g</i>., WRKY22/40/70, might be partly responsible for the enhanced immunity of <i>ldl1 ldl2</i>. These findings suggest that LDL1 and LDL2 control the transcriptional sensitivity of a group of defense-related genes to establish a primed defense response in <i>Arabidopsis</i>.
Effects of optical brighteners used in biopesticide formulations on crops: reflectance, stomatal conductance, photosynthesis, and growth. (2009)

Optical brighteners have attracted interest as adjuvant's in baculovirus-based biological insecticides due to their ability enhance the insecticidal properties of these viruses and protect virus particles from the degrading effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The effects of two types of optical brighteners, Tinopal CBS (a distyryl-biphenyl derivative) and Tinopal C1101 (an ethenediyl benzenesulfonic derivative) at 1 or 3% (wt./vol.), on growth of different crOPs [maize, Zea mays L. (var. HY-311), sorghum, Sorghum vulgare Pers. (var. Silo), tomato, Lycopersicum esculentum L. (var. Floradade IT), or pepper, Capsicum annum L. (var. Cal Won 300)] were examined after once a week application during four weeks. Both compounds significantly affected the growth of maize plants, whereas sorghum plants were affected only at the highest concentration of Tinopal C1101. Neither brightener had negative effects on tomato or peppers plants. Both compounds increased the percentage of reflectance of maize and tomato leaves when analyzed using laboratory and field spectrophotometers. A greenhouse experiment involving single application of 1 and 3% Tinopal C1101 indicated that the stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate of maize and tomato plants were not significantly affected. We conclude that the effects of optical brighteners on plant growth are more likely to be influenced by differences between plant species than differences between brightener compounds.
Altered Resting-State Frontoparietal Control Network in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (2015)

The frontoparietal control network, anatomically and functionally interposed between the dorsal attention network and default mode network, underpins executive control functions. Individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) commonly exhibit deficits in executive functions, which are mainly mediated by the frontoparietal control network. Involvement of the frontoparietal control network based on the anterior prefrontal cortex in neurobiological mechanisms of ADHD has yet to be tested. We used resting-state functional MRI and seed-based correlation analyses to investigate functional connectivity of the frontoparietal control network in a sample of 25 children with ADHD (7-14 years; mean 9.94 ± 1.77 years; 20 males), and 25 age-, sex-, and performance IQ-matched typically developing (TD) children. All participants had limited in-scanner head motion. Spearman's rank correlations were used to test the associations between altered patterns of functional connectivity with clinical symptoms and executive functions, measured by the Conners' Continuous Performance Test and Spatial Span in the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery. Compared with TD children, children with ADHD demonstrated weaker connectivity between the right anterior prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the right ventrolateral PFC, and between the left anterior PFC and the right inferior parietal lobule. Furthermore, this aberrant connectivity of the frontoparietal control network in ADHD was associated with symptoms of impulsivity and opposition-defiance, as well as impaired response inhibition and attentional control. The findings support potential integration of the disconnection model and the executive dysfunction model for ADHD. Atypical frontoparietal control network may play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of ADHD.

Prevalence and Characterization of Macrolide Resistance in Clinical Isolates of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> and <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> from North America (2002)

Resistance to macrolides is not a new phenomenon but it deserves attention because of the widespread use of these agents and their inclusion in many clinical guidelines for respiratory tract infections. The most common mechanisms by which Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes develop resistance to macrolides is by target site modification (erythromycin ribosome methylase, erm) and efflux of the drug out of the organisms (macrolide efflux, mef). Target site modification may be of greater concern because it confers high-level resistance to all antimicrobials in the macrolide-lincosamide-streptograminB (MLSB) group. The genotype profiles of macrolide-resistant S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes differ somewhat across regions in the US and between the US and Canada and other countries. There is some evidence for an association between macrolide resistance and treatment failure but this must be researched more fully. S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes isolates resistant to macrolides are generally susceptible to ketolide antimicrobials because these agents bind more strongly to the relevant domain of the ribosomal subunit (withstanding erm resistance) and are less vulnerable to efflux compared to the macrolides.
A design space for dynamic service level agreements in OpenStack (2014)

This paper does a systematic review of the possible design space for cloud-hosted applications that may have changing resource requirements that need to be supported through dynamic service level agreements (SLAs). The fundamental SLA functions are reviewed: Admission Control, Monitoring, SLA Evaluation, and SLA Enforcement - a classic autonomic control cycle. This is followed by an investigation into possible application requirements and SLA enforcement mechanisms. We then identify five basic Load Types that a dynamic SLA system must manage: Best Effort, Throttled, Load Migration, Preemption and Spare Capacity. The key to meeting application SLA requirements under changing surge conditions is to also manage the spare surge capacity. The use of this surge capacity could be managed by one of several identified load migration policies. A more detailed SLA architecture is presented that discusses specific SLA components. This is done in the context of the OpenStack since it is open source with a known architecture. Based on this SLA architecture, a research and development plan is presented wherein fundamental issues are identified that need to be resolved through research and experimentation. Based on successful outcomes, further developments are considered in the plan to produce a complete, end-to-end dynamic SLA capability. Executing on this plan will take significant resources and organization. The NSF Center for Cloud and Autonomic Computing is one possible avenue for pursuing these efforts. Given the growing importance of cloud performance management in the wider marketplace, the cloud community would be well-served to coordinate cloud SLA development across organizations such as the IEEE, Open Grid Forum, and the TeleManagement Forum.
Intramolecular Pd-Mediated Processes of Amino-Tethered Aryl Halides and Ketones:  Insight into the Ketone α-Arylation and Carbonyl-Addition Dichotomy. A New Class of Four-Membered Azapalladacycles (2003)

An exploration of the scope and limitations of Pd(0)-catalyzed intramolecular coupling reactions of amino-tethered aryl halides and ketones has been conducted. Two different and competitive reaction pathways starting from omega-(2-haloanilino) alkanones, enolate arylation and addition to the carbonyl group, have been observed, while omega-(2-halobenzylamino) alkanones exclusively underwent the enolate arylation process. The dichotomy between ketone alpha-arylation and carbonyl-addition in the reactions of omega-(2-haloanilino) alkanones has been rationalized by the intermediacy of unprecedented four-membered azapalladacycles, from which X-ray data and chemical behavior are reported.
A Protein Interaction Map of Soybean Mosaic Virus Strain G7H Based on the Yeast Two-Hybrid System (2004)

A protein interaction map of Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) strain G7H was generated by the yeast two-hybrid system. Clones encoding the genes P1, HC-Pro, P3, 6K1, CI, 6K2, VPg, NIa, NIb, and CP were fused downstream of the GAL4 binding domain (GAL4-BD) and of the GAL4 activation domain (GAL4-AD). The GAL4-BD and GAL4-AD fusion derivatives of each gene were co-transformed into yeast and transformants in which interaction took place were identified on selective media. Interacting fusion proteins were extracted from the yeast cells, run on SDS-PAGE gels and finally checked by Western blotting with GAL4 polyclonal antibodies. Strong interactions were detected between the pairs CP/CP, HC-Pro/HC-Pro, NIa/NIa, and CP/HC-Pro. Relatively weak but significant interaction was detected between VPg and NIa. Although not all of the protein-protein interactions previously reported in other potyviruses were detected, the interactions revealed here were, in general, similar to those reported previously.
On Simplified Composite Micromechanics Equation and Inverse Mixture Rule (2004)

Minimum and maximum values of the ratio and difference of reciprocals of the two values of transverse modulus given by inverse mixture rule and Chamis simplified micromechanics equation [Hopkins, D.A. and Chamis, C.C. (1988). A Unique set of Micromechanics Equations for High Temperature Metal Matrix Composite, In: DiGiovanni, P.R. and Adsit, N.R. (eds), Testing Technology of Metal Matrix Composites, ASTM STP 964, pp. 159–176, American Society for Testing and Materials, Philadelphia, PA.] are obtained in this paper when the fractional concentrations are changed in a specified manner and the moduli of the constituents take prescribed values. It is shown that if the values of the moduli of constituents are increased by a fixed value, the value of the longitudinal modulus is also increased by this fixed value while the corresponding value of the transverse modulus is increased by a greater amount.
ANTIMICROBIAL-RESISTANT PATHOGENS IN THE 1990s (1996)

Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Klebsiella pneumoniae have become increasingly resistant to antimicrobial agents. This chapter reviews the epidemiology of this resistance, its detection in the laboratory, the mechanisms of resistance, and the options for therapy and infection control.
Self‐reported adherence with medication and cardiovascular disease outcomes in the Second Australian National Blood Pressure Study (ANBP2) (2006)

Subjects who adhered to their medication regimen were less likely to experience major cardiovascular events or death. The question relating to forgetting to take medication identified non-adherent subjects likely to experience a cardiovascular event or death. Clinicians could use this question to identify patients with hypertension who are likely to benefit from medication adherence strategies.
Predictive modelling for motor insurance claims using artificial neural networks (2016)

The expected claim frequency and the expected claim severity are used in predictive modelling for motor insurance claims. There are two category of claims were considered, namely, third party property damage (TPPD) and own damage (OD). Data sets from the year 2001 to 2003 are used to develop the predictive model. The main issues in modelling the motor insurance claims are related to the nature of insurance data, such as huge information, uncertainty, imprecise and incomplete information; and classical statistical techniques which cannot handle the extreme value in the insurance data. This paper proposes the back propagation neural network (BPNN) model as a tool to model the problem. A detailed explanation of how the BPNN model solves the issues is provided.
Variations in intertidal assemblages and zonation patterns between vertical artificial seawalls and natural rocky shores: a case study from Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong. (2009)

Development of coastal cities often results in destruction of natural coastlines, which are consequently replaced by artificial coastal urban structures, commonly including smoothly surfaced vertical seawalls. Artificial seawalls can create novel habitats which may affect the diversity, abundances, and distribution patterns of intertidal assemblages. In the present study, the intertidal assemblages on 3 vertical artificial seawalls and 3 natural rocky shores were studied in Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong. Both artificial seawalls and natural rocky shores shared similar assemblages of common species, but the species abundance and percentage cover of certain taxa differed between the 2 habitat types. Artificial seawalls supported a greater abundance of the chiton Acanthopleura japonica and greater percentage coverage of the oyster Saccostrea cucullata and barnacle Amphibalanus (=Balanus) amphitrite. In contrast, a greater abundance of the false limpet Siphonaria laciniosa and a greater percentage cover of the barnacle Tetraclita squamosa occurred on natural rocky shores. Some species were found exclusively on only one of the habitats. The green mussel Perna viridus, tube worms Hydriodes spp., and sea squirt Styela sp. were only found on artificial seawalls, while the black mussel Septifer virgatus was exclusively recorded on natural rocky shores. Artificial seawalls had different zonation patterns compared to natural rocky shores. The barnacle Tetraclita squamosa and chiton Acanthopleura japonica were commonly low on natural rocky shores but they became abundant on the mid-shore of artificial seawalls. Differences in zonation patterns of species could be due to the vertical orientation of artificial seawalls leading to different temperature and humidity profiles compared to natural rocky shores. Spatial variability of the assemblage structure at the scale of tens of meters was greater on natural rocky shores than on artificial seawalls. Greater horizontal spatial variation in species assemblages on natural rocky shores may be associated with greater habitat diversity (e.g., rock pools, crevices, and vertical and horizontal surfaces) on natural shores than on smooth vertical seawalls.

Dimension, Größe, Einheit, Zahlenwert (1979)

Wenn man beginnt, sich mit dem Gebiet der physikalischen Größen zu befassen, wird man mit einer Reihe von Fachausdrücken wie Dimension, Größenart, Größe, Größenwert, Einheit und Zahlenwert konfrontiert, so daß man häufig zunächst etwas ratlos ist. Mit den folgenden Ausführungen soll daher eine Klärung der Begriffsinhalte versucht werden. Es werden die notwendigen und üblichen Definitionen und Konventionen behandelt. Die Definitionen bleiben ohne Zweifel vom Wort her gelegentlich etwas unbefriedigend, doch wird dann anhand von Beispielen deutlich gemacht, was gemeint ist. Einen Teil des Stoffes findet der Leser in DIN 1313 „Physikalische Größen und Gleichungen; Begriffe, Schreibweisen“ Ausgabe 1978. Dem Leser soll aber auch nicht verschwiegen werden, daß es gerade auf dem Gebiet der Größenlehre eine große Anzahl sehr persönlicher Meinungen gibt. Das spiegelte sich bei den Beratungen zur Neufassung von DIN 1313 wieder. In fast jedem Lehrbuch über die Größenlehre wird eine etwas persönlich gefärbte Version geboten. Die folgenden Ausführungen halten sich in starkem Maße an die für die Neufassung von DIN 1313 erarbeiteten Unterlagen, die von der Mehrheit der Mitarbeiter auch vertreten wird. Auf die bei der Neuformulierung bestehenden Schwierigkeiten wird an den entsprechenden Stellen hingewiesen.
