Texas Medication Algorithm Project (2001)

Article AbstractBackground: Use of treatment guidelines fortreatment of major psychiatric illnesses has increased in recentyears. The Texas Medication Algorithm Project (TMAP) wasdeveloped to study the feasibility and process of developing andimplementing guidelines for bipolar disorder, major depressivedisorder, and schizophrenia in the public mental health system ofTexas. This article describes the consensus process used todevelop the first set of TMAP algorithms for the Bipolar DisorderModule (Phase 1) and the trial testing the feasibility of theirimplementation in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settingsacross Texas (Phase 2). Method: The feasibility trial answered corequestions regarding implementation of treatment guidelines forbipolar disorder. A total of 69 patients were treated with theoriginal algorithms for bipolar disorder developed in Phase 1 ofTMAP. Results: Results support that physiciansaccepted the guidelines, followed recommendations to see patientsat certain intervals, and utilized sequenced treatment stepsdifferentially over the course of treatment. While improvementsin clinical symptoms (24-item Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale)were observed over the course of enrollment in the trial, theseconclusions are limited by the fact that physician volunteerswere utilized for both treatment and ratings, and there was nocontrol group. Conclusion: Results from Phases 1 and 2 indicatethat it is possible to develop and implement a treatmentguideline for patients with a history of mania in public mentalhealth clinics in Texas. TMAP Phase 3, a recently completedlarger and controlled trial assessing the clinical and economicimpact of treatment guidelines and patient and family educationin the public mental health system of Texas, improves upon thismethodology.
Subcloning and regulation of a human intestinal sodium-phosphate cotransporter gene (2001)

Phosphate plays a critical role in the body as a constituent of bone and tooth for body development, and as a urinary buffer for pH in body acid-base balance regulation. The phosphorus level in blood in human is between 3.0 to 4.5 mg/dl. When the blood phosphate concentration is lower than 2.5 mg/dl, the person develops hypophosphatemia. When the blood phosphate concentration is higher than 4.5 mg/dl, the person develops hyperphosphatemia. It is critically important for the body to control the phosphate level in blood and maintain the phosphate homeostasis. The kidney and the intestine are the important sites to regulate phosphate homeostasis. This dissertation research was to explore the transporter gene(s) involved in the intestinal sodium-dependent phosphate absorption in human and to investigate the role of sodium-phosphate (NaPi) transporters in phosphate homeostatic regulation. The research was performed to test the hypothesis that the sodium-dependent phosphate (NaPi) cotransporter is involved in the phosphate absorption in intestine and various physiological regulators modulate the activity of this transporter. A cDNA encoding a novel human small intestinal Na⁺-P i transporter was isolated from a human intestinal cDNA library. This cDNA encodes a 689 amino acid polypeptide which is different from the renal NaPi cotransporters. This human intestinal NaPi cotransporter gene was mapped to human chromosome 4p15.1--p15.3 by the F̲luorescence I̲n-S̲itu H̲y̲bridization (FISH) method. The human intestinal NaPi cotransporter gene structure was studied by screening a human genomic DNA library. This gene contains 12 exons and 11 introns. There were two transcription initiation sites identified by primer extension. In vivo and in vitro studies showed that the intestinal NaPi cotransporter gene expression is regulated by EGF and vitamin D3. EGF inhibits NaPi-cotransporter gene expression, while vitamin D3 stimulates NaPi-cotransporter gene expression. From these studies, I concluded that the intestinal sodium-dependent phosphate absorption is mainly mediated by intestinal NaPi cotransporters (NaPi-IIb), and this transporter is modulated by various physiological regulators in order to maintain the phosphate homeostasis.
Visualization of simulated airflow in a clean room (1992)

Techniques for visualizing a simulated air flow in a clean room are developed by using an efficient cell traverse of tetrahedral cells generated from irregular volumes. The proposed techniques are probing and stream line display, which are related to the measurement techniques used in actual clean rooms. The efficient traverse makes it possible to move freely around a given irregular volume and to spawn off stream lines. A successful application of these techniques to a problem in a clean room is also described.
The Flow Ratio Effect on Oriented, Crosslinked Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) (2004)

The compression molding process is known to produce UHMWPE components of improved oxidation resistance [1] and quality surface finish. Induction of molecular orientation in non-crosslinked UHMWPE was demonstrated by using a slot drawing process [2]. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of flow ratio on wear and mechanical properties of crosslinked UHMPWE. Pre-irradiated GUR 1020 preforms, corresponding to flow ratios from 1.06 to 1.40, were evaluated in this study. Molecular orientation was shown by Thermal Mechanical Analysis and crossed polarizer microphotographs. Tensile (Type V), double notched Izod and pin on disk wear data were generated. The degree of molecular orientation was correlated with the flow ratio and was reflected by the enhancement of the mechanical properties. Pin on disk wear data show that there was no significant difference in wear resistance between oriented, crosslinked UHMWPE and its machined counterpart.
Simulation of effects of phase and amplitude coatings on the lens aperture with polarization masks (1994)

It is well known that circular symmetric phase and amplitude coatings on the lens aperture modify the imaging qualities of a lens. The present paper shows that the effects of such phase and amplitude coatings on the imaging properties of a lens can be achieved by using suitably oriented polarization masks on the lens aperture. The fact that the response of such a system can be continuously varied by changing the orientation of the polarizing devices included in the system lends it a versatility unobtainable by the use of conventional phase and amplitude coatings on the lens aperture.

Implementing temporal integrity constraints using an active DBMS (1995)

The paper proposes a general architecture for implementing temporal integrity constraints by compiling them into a set of active DBMS rules. The modularity of the design allows easy adaptation to different environments. Both differences in the specification languages and in the target rule systems can be easily accommodated. The advantages of this architecture are demonstrated on a particular temporal constraint compiler. This compiler allows automatic translation of integrity constraints formulated in Past Temporal Logic into rules of an active DBMS (in the current version of the compiler two active DBMS are supported: Starburst and INGRES). During the compilation the set of constraints is checked for the safe evaluation property. The result is a set of SQL statements that includes all the necessary rules needed for enforcing the original constraints. The rules are optimized to reduce the space overhead introduced by the integrity checking mechanism. There is no need for an additional runtime constraint monitor. When the rules are activated, all updates to the database that violate any of the constraints are automatically rejected (i.e., the corresponding transaction is aborted). In addition to straightforward implementation, this approach offers a clean separation of application programs and the integrity checking code.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Wide-band matching of a small disk-loaded monopole (1985)

A wide-band, electrically small, disk-loaded antenna, comprising of a disk, 0.26 wavelength (at midband) in diameter, located 0.097 wavelength above a ground plane, has been designed and tested. A unique experimental procedure was used to determine the parameters of the impedance matching network, which consists of a conductive biconical center post and two structural side posts located in the space under the disk. The resulting antenna has a maximum voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR) of 2:1 over a frequency bandwidth ratio of approximately 2:1. A second model, designed using the same technique, has a maximum VSWR of 3:1 over a frequency bandwidth ratio of 3:1. This antenna was compared to a multi-element disk-loaded antenna (with the same size profile) designed by Dr. Georg Goubau. This multi-element antenna also has a maximum VSWR of 2:1 over a frequency band of approximately 2:1. The comparison shows that the simple disk-loaded antenna, with fixed double tuning, achieves the same low VSWR as the multi-element disk-loaded antenna with fixed triple tuning. Therefore, an increase in bandwidth could be achieved in the simple disk-loaded antenna by applying higher order tuning.
Knowledge sharing between distributed knowledge based systems (1992)

A distributed knowledge-based system (KBS) designed to help computer network users and administrators use, manage, and maintain computer networks is described. The initial version of the system emphasizes the types of local area networks that are typically found in large industrial, governmental, or educational organizations. Knowledge used by the system is elicited from experts, generated from logical and physical network connectivity topology, and created by analyzing data gathered by simple network management protocol (SNMP) agents, system log agents, error message daemons, and interexpert system communication daemons. Knowledge is then shared by transferring chunks of knowledge between loosely coupled KBSs. Examples of knowledge sharing between KBSs are given.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Improve the Reaction Efficiency in Synthesis 1,4-ButaneDiol (BDO) by Nano Copper Chromite Catalyst (2018)

The new coupling process of the dehydrogenation of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and the hydrogenation of furfural (FFA) over a Nano copper chromite catalyst was carried out in a continuous fixed-bed reactor. The effects of the reaction conditions on the coupling process were investigated in detail. The results show that the coupling process has some advantages over the individual dehydrogenation and hydrogenation ones, such as optimal hydrogen utilization, good energy efficiency, improved yield and mild reaction condition.
A More Efficient COPE Architecture for Network Coding in Multihop Wireless Networks (2009)

Recently, a promising packet forwarding architecture COPE was proposed to essentially improve the throughput of multihop wireless networks, where each network node can intelligently encode multiple packets together and forward them in a single transmission. However, COPE is still in its infancy and has the following limitations: (1) COPE adopts the FIFO packet scheduling and thus does not provide different priorities for different types of packets. (2) COPE simply classifies all packets destined to the same nexthop into small-size or large-size virtual queues and examines only the head packet of each virtual queue to find coding solutions. Such a queueing structure will lose some potential coding opportunities, because among packets destined to the same nexthop at most two packets (the head packets of small-size and large-size queues) will be examined in the coding process, regardless of the number of flows. (3) The coding algorithm adopted in COPE is fast but cannot always find good solutions. In order to address the above limitations, in this paper we first present a new queueing structure for COPE, which can provide more potential coding opportunities, and then propose a new packet scheduling algorithm for this queueing structure to assign different priorities to different types of packets. Finally, we propose an efficient coding algorithm to find appropriate packets for coding. Simulation results demonstrate that this new COPE architecture can further greatly improve the node transmission efficiency.
Polyamides (2003)

Polyamides (PAs) are high-molecular-weight materials containing amide units; the hydrocarbon segments between the amide groups can be aliphatic, partially aromatic, or wholly aromatic. We begin the chapter with an introductory section, and then discuss structure-property relationships. Next, we present an overview of chemistry and analytical techniques, followed by a discussion of synthetic methods.
Performance evaluation of a Green Scheduling Algorithm for energy savings in Cloud computing (2010)

With energy shortages and global climate change leading our concerns these days, the power consumption of datacenters has become a key issue. Obviously, a substantial reduction in energy consumption can be made by powering down servers when they are not in use. This paper aims at designing, implementing and evaluating a Green Scheduling Algorithm integrating a neural network predictor for optimizing server power consumption in Cloud computing. We employ the predictor to predict future load demand based on historical demand. According to the prediction, the algorithm turns off unused servers and restarts them to minimize the number of running servers, thus minimizing the energy use at the points of consumption to benefit all other levels. For evaluation, we perform simulations with two load traces. The results show that the PP20 mode can save up to 46.3% of power consumption with a drop rate of 0.03% on one load trace, and a drop rate of 0.12% with a power reduction rate of 46.7% on the other.

This paper describes some innovative methods for evaluating the design quality and the actual condition of an electric motor. Some techniques discussed below were developed in company with the aim of increasing reliability in the assessment of the stator and/or the rotor of a squirrel cage motor. The methods discussed for stator evaluation involve the measurement of iron losses and the realization of accelerated ageing tests, concerning quality in the design stage of an electric motor. The methods discussed for rotor evaluation involve procedures to check the continuity of the bars and short circuit rings, concerning quality in the manufacturing stage and allowing assessments of the actual condition of the machine in the field.

New Intrinsically Radiopaque Hydrophilic Microspheres for Embolization: Synthesis and Characterization (2007)

Polymeric particles currently used for embolization procedures have the disadvantage that they are radiolucent, that is, invisible on X-ray images, and consequently the interventional radiologist has to resort to angiography to (indirectly) monitor the fate of the particles. Here, we introduce intrinsically radiopaque hydrophilic microspheres. Since these microspheres can directly be visualized on X-ray images, using these microspheres for embolization purposes will allow superprecise location of the embolic material, both during and after the procedure. The microspheres, which are prepared by suspension polymerization, are based on the radiopaque monomer 2-[4-iodobenzoyl]-oxo-ethylmethacrylate and hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) and/or 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NVP) as hydrophilic component. It has been shown that for clinically relevant X-ray visibility the spheres should contain at least 20 wt % iodine. At this iodine content, copolymerization with HEMA results in spheres that hardly imbibe water (EQ = 1.08). When HEMA is replaced by NVP, the volume swelling ratio can be significantly increased (to 1.33).
Gas Bubbles with Organic Skin as Cavitation Nuclei (1954)

The hypothesis discussed that the cavitation nuclei consist in gas bubbles. Due to surface tension, small bubbles would dissolve in a very short time. If the bubbles are larger than 5×10−3 cm, or if the liquid is supersaturated, they may last longer or even be stable, but then no cavitation threshold exists. The hypothesis expressed that the nuclei are very small bubbles, stabilized by an organic skin, which mechanically prevents loss of gas by diffusion. The cavitation occurs when the skin breaks and the threshold is determined by the breaking strength of the film and the size of the bubble.
X-ray Diffraction, <sup>7</sup>Li MAS NMR Spectroscopy, and <sup>119</sup>Sn Mössbauer Spectroscopy Study of SnSb-Based Electrode Materials (2002)

119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy is used in combination with 7Li MAS NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction to resolve the details of the different Li−Sn and Li−Sb intermetallics formed during the electrochemical reactions of nominal “SnSb” compounds inside a lithium battery. At a Li/SnSb ratio of 2.02, the Mössbauer spectrum indicates that the initial structure of the compounds are not deeply affected during the first steps of discharging. At 4.95 Li/SnSb, each spectrum consists of three components. The hyperfine parameters agree well with those of β-Sn and a LiSn-related solid. At 7.27 Li/SnSb, the spectra reveal that no metallic Sn is present. During cell charging, the appearance of a poorly crystalline Li13Sn5 phase is detected at 8.9 Li/SnSb. NMR data show signals resulting from ionic Li of the passivating layer and from Li−Sn and Li−Sb intermetallics at downfield and upfield shifts, respectively, which depart from those observed in bulk solids. The partial recovery of the stistaite structure at the end of charging is confirmed in SnSb single-phase electrodes, whereas the opposite is true for mixtures of tin and antimony.
