A Nuclear Stethoscope Concept With Compact Radiation Detector (2005)

Over the past several years there has been a lot of work being done in the radiation detection at room temperature and making the system compact and light. A compact detector can be designed using HgIZ crystal as the detecting element. It is found that the performance of Hg12 crystal is comparable with those crystals used in this purpose. A nuclear stethsscope is a nuclear detector which is highly compact, functions at room temperature and detects the function of the part of the body by sitting very close to the body part of interest. In the following paper we give a short description of the methods and designing problems of a nuclear stethoscope.
Soluble Invertase Expression Is an Early Target of Drought Stress during the Critical, Abortion-Sensitive Phase of Young Ovary Development in Maize (2002)

To distinguish their roles in early kernel development and stress, expression of soluble (Ivr2) and insoluble (Incw2) acid invertases was analyzed in young ovaries of maize (Zea mays) from 6 d before (-6 d) to 7 d after pollination (+7 d) and in response to perturbation by drought stress treatments. The Ivr2 soluble invertase mRNA was more abundant than the Incw2 mRNA throughout pre- and early post-pollination development (peaking at +3 d). In contrast, Incw2 mRNAs increased only after pollination. Drought repression of the Ivr2 soluble invertase also preceded changes in Incw2, with soluble activity responding before pollination (-4 d). Distinct profiles of Ivr2 and Incw2 mRNAs correlated with respective enzyme activities and indicated separate roles for these invertases during ovary development and stress. In addition, the drought-induced decrease and developmental changes of ovary hexose to sucrose ratio correlated with activity of soluble but not insoluble invertase. Ovary abscisic acid levels were increased by severe drought only at -6 d and did not appear to directly affect Ivr2 expression. In situ analysis showed localized activity and Ivr2 mRNA for soluble invertase at sites of phloem-unloading and expanding maternal tissues (greatest in terminal vascular zones and nearby cells of pericarp, pedicel, and basal nucellus). This early pattern of maternal invertase localization is clearly distinct from the well-characterized association of insoluble invertase with the basal endosperm later in development. This localization, the shifts in endogenous hexose to sucrose environment, and the distinct timing of soluble and insoluble invertase expression during development and stress collectively indicate a key role and critical sensitivity of the Ivr2 soluble invertase gene during the early, abortion-susceptible phase of development.
A calorimetric study on the configurational enthalpy and low-energy excitation of ground amorphous solid and liquid-quenched glass of 1, 3, 5-tri--naphthylbenzene (1996)

An amorphous solid of 1, 3, 5-tri--naphthylbenzene (TNB) was prepared by grinding the crystalline sample with a vibrating mill. Heat capacities of the ground amorphous solid (GAS), liquid-quenched glass (LQG) and crystal of TNB were measured with an adiabatic calorimeter in the temperature range 10 - 330 K for the GAS and 5 - 370 K for the LQG and crystal. The heat capacities of the LQG and GAS were 0.5 - 1% larger than that of the crystal. The heat capacity of the GAS agreed with that of the LQG between 30 and 330 K but was 1 - 4% larger than that of the LQG below 30 K. The heat capacity difference in the low-temperature region can be attributed to the difference in low-energy excitation which is known as a universal property of amorphous materials. A glass transition occurred at 342 K for the LQG. For the GAS, however, a large exothermic effect due to crystallization appeared from 315 K, which is 25 K lower than of the LQG. The configurational enthalpy of GAS determined from the enthalpy of crystallization was much larger than that of the LQG. This result indicates that the structure of the GAS is much more disordered and strained than that of the LQG.
[Anti-inflammatory effect of aluminum or aurin tricarboxylic acid]. (1980)

The anti-inflammatory effect of aurin tricarboxylic acid is studied in rats after parenteral injection of 20 and 50 mg/kg. Aurin tricarboxylic acid reduces: the carrageenan-induced oedemas in paws, the carragenan-induced pleural effusion, the carragen-induced granulation tissue growth and the Freund adjuvant-induced arthritis. As non steroïdal antiinflammatory drugs, the aurin tricarboxylic acid inhibits (ED50 = 0.34.10-2 M) the human erythrocyte delta aminolevulinic acid dehydratase, a zinc dependent enzyme. A possible interaction between zinc-enzymes and non steroïdal antiinflammatory compounds is suggested.
HER2 Status in Ovarian Carcinomas: A Multicenter GINECO Study of 320 Patients (2007)

Our results show that the decision algorithm usually used in breast cancer (IHC as a screening test, with equivocal results confirmed by FISH) is appropriate in ovarian cancer. In contrast to previous series, HER2-positive status did not influence outcome in the present study, possibly due to the fact that patients in our study received paclitaxel/carboplatin-based chemotherapy. This raises the question of whether HER2 status and paclitaxel sensitively are linked.
Overexpression of the Far Upstream Element Binding Protein 1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Is Required for Tumor Growth† (2009)

Our data establish FBP1 as an important oncoprotein overexpressed in HCC that induces tumor propagation through direct or indirect repression of cell cycle inhibitors and proapoptotic target genes.
Impaired muscle phasing systematically adapts to varied relative angular relationships during locomotion in people poststroke (2011)

After stroke, hemiparesis will result in impairments to locomotor control. Specifically, muscle coordination deficits, in the form of inappropriately phased muscle-activity patterns, occur in both the paretic and nonparetic limbs. These dysfunctional paretic muscle-coordination patterns can adapt to somatosensory inputs, and also the sensorimotor state of nonparetic limb can influence paretic limb. However, the relative contribution of interlimb pathways for improving paretic muscle-activation patterns in terms of phasing remains unknown. In this study, we investigated whether the paretic muscle-activity phasing can be influenced by the relative angular-spatial relationship of the nonparetic limb by using a split-crank ergometer, where the cranks could be decoupled. Eighteen participants with chronic stroke were asked to pedal bilaterally during each task while surface electromyogram signals were recorded bilaterally from four lower extremity muscles (vastus medialis, rectus femoris, tibialis anterior, and soleus). During each experiment, the relative angular crank positions were manipulated by increasing or decreasing their difference by randomly ordered increments of 30° over the complete cycle [0° (in phase pedaling), 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180° (standard pedaling), 210°, 240°, 270°, 300°, 330° (out of phase pedaling)]. We found that the paretic and nonparetic muscle phasing in the cycle systematically adapted to varied relative angular relationships, and this systematic relationship was well modeled by a sinusoidal relationship. Also, the paretic uniarticular muscle (vastus medialis) showed larger phase shifts compared with biarticular muscle (rectus femoris). More importantly, for each stroke subject, we demonstrated an exclusive crank-angular relation that resulted in the generation of more appropriately phased paretic muscle activity. These findings provide new evidence to better understand the capability of impaired nervous system to produce a more normalized muscle-phasing pattern poststroke.

Laterally crystallized polysilicon TFTs using patterned light absorption masks (2002)

We present a novel technique to fabricate laterally-crystallized TFTs. Thick Si is placed over the drain of the TFT. This is then subjected to an RTA step to nucleate the film in the drain region, and then to an low temperature solid-phase crystallization (LT-SPC) grain-growth step. This results in a substantial device performance improvement. The simplicity and non-contact nature of this technique makes it promising for the fabrication of high-performance TFTs. Optimization, and the use of a high temperature process, should enable near single-crystal performance using a simple, low-cost process.
Strong carrier freezeout above 77 K in tellurium-doped buried-channel MOS transistors (1985)

Semiconductor devices are almost universally based on an assumption of full ionization of dopant impurities, a natural condition at room temperature for conventional shallow-energy-level (activation energy ∼ 0.05 eV) dopant species. At temperature T < 30 K for conventional dopants, freezeout of the equilibrium carrier density becomes severe and uncompensated dopants are in the neutral charge state. The high resistivity of such frozen-out regions might have useful applications for device structures. However, the temperature (< 30 K) required makes such applications generally impractical. Freezeout-induced high-resistivity regions at 77 K would be considerably more interesting. We demonstrate strong freezeout of a buried-channel MOS transistor at 77 K using tellurium as the channel dopant.
<i>IN VIVO</i> GENERATION AND ELIMINATION OF ANGIOTENSIN IN THE RAT (1990)

1. Combined high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and radio-immunoassays were used to study the in vivo kinetics of the renin-angiotensin system in the rat. The HPLC-verified plasma concentrations of angiotensin I (AI) were 1.0 nmol/L (0.52-1.6) in anaesthetized normal and 4.2 nmol/L (2.5-7.0) in salt-depleted rats. The plasma concentrations of angiotensin II (AII) were 0.07 nmol/L (0.04-0.13) in anaesthetized normal and 1.0 (0.60-1.6) nmol/L in salt-depleted rats. 2. The fate of injected AI and AII passing through the vascular bed of the lungs was determined. Two-thirds of the injected AI was converted to AII and one-third was unchanged after a single passage through the lungs. Only trace amounts of angiotensin III (AIII), the only other metabolite, were demonstrated. 3. This verifies that the majority of AI is metabolized through AII. Injected AII disappeared from the circulation with formation of only trace amounts of AIII, the half-life being about 10 s. This corresponds to a calculated in vivo generation rate of AII of about 12 nmol/L per h in normal rats. It is in agreement with the AI generation rate (plasma renin activity) measured as 9.5 nmol/L per h in vitro.
Pre-operative autologous blood donations. A five-year experience in Trinidad and Tobago. (1995)

A pre-operative autologous blood donation programme was started in 1988 and made available to all doctors offering elective surgical procedures. Two hundred and seventy-seven (277) patients presented for autologous donation over a five-year period. Nine point four per cent were rejected because of low haemoglobin ( < 10.5 g/dl). The single biggest user of the programme was the Princess Elizabeth Hospital for handicapped persons. Patients undergoing orthopaedic procedures gave 50% of the donations, and ranged in age from 10 to 73 years. The oldest donor was a 73-year-old man who had an abdominal aortic aneurysm replaced. Gynaecological surgeons in the public and private sectors together provided 43.9% of donors, 3.6% of these underwent elective Caesarean Section, each donating one unit of blood at 36 weeks. Patients undergoing general surgical procedures comprised 10.4% of donors. Autologous donors contributed 1.3% of the total number of donations over this period.

Deterministic resolution of two aircraft conflict in free flight (1997)

This paper studies strategies for resolving two aircraft conflicts in a free flight environment for air traffic management. In a free flight environment, pilots of individual aircraft can change flight paths in real time. As a result, resolving conflicts among aircraft becomes a key priority for controllers. In this paper, a pointmass level flight aircraft model is used. Resolution of a two-aircraft conflict is formulated as deterministic nonlinear optimal control problems. Performance indices are selected to minimize deviations of both aircraft from their originally-intended flight paths or to minimize banking angles, subject to a minimum separation requirement. In addition, terminal constraints are included that force each aircraft to return to its original path after conflict avoidance maneuvers. In an unrestricted region, it is assumed that aircraft are originally flying with a constant heading. In general, the two aircraft would turn the same way (left or right) by roughly the same amount to avoid a conflict. When the intersecting angle is small, however, one aircraft needs to take a path stretching to avoid the other aircraft. In the terminal region where aircraft converge to the same gate, one aircraft needs to stretch its flight paths to avoid the other aircraft. If the two aircraft have the same speed, either aircraft can perform the path stretching. If the two aircraft have different speeds, the slower aircraft should perform the path stretching.
Significant thermal conductivity enhancement in graphene oxide papers modified with alkaline earth metal ions (2013)

The thermal conductivities of graphene oxide paper (GOP) and the alkaline earth metal ions (Mg2+, Ca2+) modified analogues, prepared by a facile vacuum filtration method, were measured by a laser flash method. The thermal conductivities of GOP, Mg-modified GOP, and Ca-modified GOP are 3.91 W/(m × K), 32.05 W/(m × K), and 61.38 W/(m × K), respectively, which indicate the modification of GOP with metal ions has resulted in significant enhancement in thermal conduction properties compared with unmodified GOP. The crosslink between graphene oxide sheet and metal ions, the neat stacking of graphene oxide sheets in modified GOP, together with the intercalation of metal ions into the gallery spaces between the graphene oxide sheet basal planes, result in a decrease of thermal resistance of the boundary and an increase of contact surface, thus increases the thermal conductivity of modified graphene oxide paper.
On the (f)utility of measuring the lead equivalence of protective garments (2013)

The protective value of garments from both primary and scattered radiation is a strong function of beam quality. Assessment of the protective value should be performed across a range of beam qualities. Methods for performing such assessment must be developed and must specify beam qualities, measurement geometry, and the appropriate weighting across the beam quality range for different applications.
A Metabonomic Strategy for the Detection of the Metabolic Effects of Chamomile (<i>Matricaria recutita </i>L.) Ingestion (2004)

A metabonomic strategy, utilizing high-resolution 1H NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with chemometric methods (discriminant analysis with orthogonal signal correction), has been applied to the study of human biological responses to chamomile tea ingestion. Daily urine samples were collected from volunteers during a 6-week period incorporating a 2-week baseline period, 2 weeks of daily chamomile tea ingestion, and a 2-week post-treatment phase. Although strong intersubject variation in metabolite profiles was observed, clear differentiation between the samples obtained before and after chamomile ingestion was achieved on the basis of increased urinary excretion of hippurate and glycine with depleted creatinine concentration. Samples obtained up to 2 weeks after daily chamomile intake formed an isolated cluster in the discriminant analysis map, from which it was inferred that the metabolic effects of chamomile ingestion were prolonged during the 2-week postdosing period. This study highlights the potential for metabonomic technology in the assessment of nutritional interventions, despite the high degree of variation from genetic and environmental sources.
Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Degludec in a Flexible Dosing Regimen vs Insulin Glargine in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes (BEGIN: Flex T1): A 26-Week Randomized, Treat-to-Target Trial With a 26-Week Extension (2013)

IDeg can be administered OD at any time of day, with injection timing varied without compromising glycemic control or safety vs same-time-daily IDeg or IGlar. This may improve basal insulin adherence by allowing injection-time adjustment according to individual needs.
Purification, Enzymatic Characterization, and Nucleotide Sequence of a High-Isoelectric-Point α-Glucosidase from Barley Malt (2000)

High-isoelectric-point (pI) alpha-glucosidase was purified 7, 300-fold from an extract of barley (Hordeum vulgare) malt by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange, and butyl-Sepharose chromatography. The enzyme had high activity toward maltose (k(cat) = 25 s(-1)), with an optimum at pH 4.5, and catalyzed the hydrolysis by a retaining mechanism, as shown by nuclear magnetic resonance. Acarbose was a strong inhibitor (K(i) = 1.5 microM). Molecular recognition revealed that all OH-groups in the non-reducing ring and OH-3 in the reducing ring of maltose formed important hydrogen bonds to the enzyme in the transition state complex. Mass spectrometry of tryptic fragments assigned the 92-kD protein to a barley cDNA (GenBank accession no. U22450) that appears to encode an alpha-glucosidase. A corresponding sequence (HvAgl97; GenBank accession no. AF118226) was isolated from a genomic phage library using a cDNA fragment from a barley cDNA library. HvAgl97 encodes a putative 96.6-kD protein of 879 amino acids with 93.8% identity to the protein deduced from U22450. The sequence contains two active site motifs of glycoside hydrolase family 31. Three introns of 86 to 4,286 bp interrupt the coding region. The four exons vary from 218 to 1,529 bp. Gene expression analysis showed that transcription reached a maximum 48 h after the start of germination.

Designing user interfaces for multi-touch and gesture devices (2009)

Initially Designers only had a keyboard and lines of text to design. Then, the mouse enabled a richer design ecosystem with two dimensional plains of UI. Now the Design and Research communities have access to multi-touch and gestural interfaces which have been released on a mass market scale. This allows them to design and develop new, unique, and richer design patterns and approaches. These methods are no longer confined to research projects or innovation labs, but are now offered on a large scale to millions of consumers. With these new interface behaviors, in combination with multiple types of hardware devices that can affect the interface, there are new problems and patterns that have increased the complexity of designing interfaces.
A Further Range (2018)

The years between <italic>West-Running Brook</italic> and the publication of the Pulitzer-Prize winning collection <italic>A Further Range</italic> in 1936 were filled with great upheaval, joy, and sadness for the Frost family, including two deaths, cross-country moves, marriages, and births. In contrast, Frost’s career as a poet was flourishing, marked by a Pulitzer Prize for his collected poems in 1931 and increasing national recognition. In this collection, we see Frost sorting through his life, including childhood events (“At Woodward’s Gardens”), his time as a mill worker (“A Lone Striker,” “A Trial Run”), his life as a farmer (“Blue Ribbon at Amesbury,” ”The Gold Hesperidee”), and scenes from rural life (“Two Tramps in Mud Time,” “A Drumlin Woodchuck”) He also writes of ancient humans (“A Missive Missile”), the history of the earth (“Build Soil”), evolution of life (“Design”), and looks to the stars (“Lost in Heaven,” “The Master Speed.”)
Modification with alkyl chains and the influence on thermal and mechanical properties of aromatic hyperbranched polyesters (2000)

All-aromatic hyperbranched polyesters with hydroxy endgroups were functionalized with aliphatic n-alkyl carboxylic acids. The length of the n-alkyl chain as well as the degree of modification were varied and the resulting, partially amphiphilic polymers were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). With both increasing degree of modification and increasing length of the alkyl chain the glass transition temperature decreases due to reduced intermolecular hydrogen bonding. When the alkyl chains start to crystallize Tg of the hyperbranched polymers increases again. The mechanical properties of the former brittle hyperbranched polyester were improved by modification with C12 chains and a stable free standing film was obtained by compression molding. The film was investigated by means of dynamic mechanic analysis (DMA) and microscopy, exhibiting a low temperature thermal transition and phase separation within the scale of a light microscope. Furthermore melt rheology measurements were performed on the starting polymer and on the C12 modified product. The complex viscosity is reduced strongly by the modification of the aromatic hyperbranched polyester.
Fast Dynamic In-band RF Self-Interference Cancellation for Enabling Efficient Spectral Usage (2017)
