The uncovering of projective identification in the treatment of the borderline adolescent. (1981)

This paper illustrates a clinical finding from intensive family and individual therapy with borderline adolescents: The properly handled uncovering of projective identification leads to the building of parental empathy, and allows for the reopening of emotional growth for the adolescent and his parents. Projective identification is defined and applied in the context of intensive therapy, and its place is established as a link between interpersonal family relations and intrapsychic structure. The process of the uncovering of a specific object-relations conflict which had been defended by projective identification is illustrated by excerpts from the treatment situation.
Dehydrated Blueberries by the Continuous Explosion‐Puffing Process (1982)

ABSTRACT A blueberry dehydration process which includes the unique continuous explosion‐puffing system (CEPS) is described. A drying study including alternate drying pretreatments failed to increase the dehydration rate. It was found that care during processing was necessary to prevent rupture of the berries as rupture caused bleeding during drying which reduced the drying rate. Optimum operating conditions for CEPS were established for blueberries. Measurements of dried blueberry properties such as bulk density, color, rehydration, and disintegration were used to determine optimum operating conditions for pressure (103 kPa), temperature (190°C), and feed moisture (18.5%) for CEPS.
Methyl Butenoxy Derivatives of various elements (1978)

Abstract Germanium tetramethyl butenoxide Ge[OC(CH 3 ) 2 CHCH 2 ] 4 , has been synthesized from germanium tetrachloride, methyl butenol and triethylamine. Other methyl butenoxy derivatives of various elements, boron aluminium, titanium, alkyltin, niobium and tantalum have been prepared by the alcohol interchange of corresponding metal isopropoxides with methyl butenol. These derivatives were purified by distillation under reduced pressure and characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight, refractive index, IR and PMR spectral studies.
EL ESTUDIO DE LA SALUD EN EL TRABAJO EN EL ECUADOR (1970)

El estudio de la seguridad y salud de los trabajadores requiere de un marco de referencia adecuado. No solo se trata de superar la unicausalidad o mencionar la unicausalidad. Es necesario debatir sobre los contextos en que se desarrollan los estudios, los distintos niveles de análisis antes de llegar a la empresa y después de haber delimitado el objeto de estudio. Al respecto se considera necesario recurrir, al menos a una descripción de la realidad nacional y su inserción a nivel internacional y recuperar algunos indicadores nacionales que permitan enmarcar cualquier trabajo por más específico y circunscripto que sea. En ese sentido, a partir de la bibliografía y la experiencia previa, se proponen algunas categorías y sobretodo se discute la importancia de la organización del trabajo como variable más general a partir de la cual se sugiere analizar las condiciones y el ambiente de trabajo. En esa lógica debería inscribirse y articularse el estudio de la exposición, sea en cuanto a sus determinantes, sea como nexo de asociación con los efectos sobre la accidentabilidad y salud de los trabajadores.
Roles of liposome composition and temperature in distribution of amphotericin B in serum lipoproteins (1993)

The role of liposome composition and temperature in the distribution of amphotericin B (AmB) with serum lipoproteins and the role of particle charge in AmB transfer to serum lipoproteins were determined. Serum obtained from healthy volunteers was incubated with known concentrations of AmB or different liposomal formulations of AmB (1 to 100 micrograms/ml) at 37 degrees C for various time intervals (5, 10, 20, 30, 45, and 60 min). After each interval, serum was removed and separated into high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) fractions by an LDL-direct assay. The distribution of AmB (Fungizone) at 5 min through 1 h of incubation at 25 degrees C remained constant and was similar in the HDL and LDL fractions. At 37 degrees C, at 5 through 45 min of incubation, 54 to 61% of AmB was recovered in the HDL fraction; however, at 1 h more than 75% of the AmB concentration was recovered in the HDL fraction. In contrast, 87.5 to 92% AmB was recovered in the HDL fraction throughout the incubation when negatively charged liposomal AmB (dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine [DMPC]:dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol [DMPG], 7:3 [wt/wt]) was used. With positively charged liposomes, 75 to 87.7% of AmB was recovered in the HDL fraction through the different time points studied. AmB incorporated into DMPC (neutral) and DMPG (negative) liposomes, and AmB was distributed in an HDL:LDL ratio of 6:4 following 1 h of incubation. Ninety percent of AmB and 80% of the lipid were found in the HDL fraction in a 3:1 molar DMPG:AmB ratio and in the LDL fraction in a 6:1 molar ratio. Lipid charge and temperature play a role in AmB distribution into serum lipoproteins. AmB and DMPG may contransfer as an intact drug-lipid complex to serum lipoproteins.
Characteristics of a Buried-Channel Graded Drain with Punchthrough Stopper (BGP) MOS Device (1982)

MOS device structures having a graded-drain (G), a buried-channel (B), and a punchthrough stopper (P) are realized by a triimplantation technique without additional masking. Combined effects of B, G, and P are experimentally investigated. Significant improvements in source-to-drain (S-D) breakdown voltage and the short-channel effect are observed in a BGP device. The BGP device structure will be durable for 5-V operation in the coming VLSI era.
<i>n</i>-Representability Problem for Reduced Density Matrices (1967)

In this paper we prove some theorems about the n-representability problem for reduced density operators. The first theorem (Theorem 6) sharpens a theorem proved by Garrod and Percus. Let Tnp be the set of all n-representable p-density operators. Then a density operator Dp belongs to Tnp¯ (the bar indicates the closure with respect to a certain topology) if and only if Tr (DpBp) ≥ 0 for all bounded self-adjoint p-particle operators Bp, such that their n-expansion (pn)ΓpnBp≡ ∑ i1&lt;…&lt;ipBp(i1…ip)is a positive operator in n-particle space. Moreover, it is shown that Tnp¯ is the closed convex hull of the exposed points of Tnp of finite one-rank (Theorem 9). A more practical version of this theorem may be formulated in the following manner (cf. Theorem 8). Consider the set γp of subspaces of the n-particle space, occurring as an eigenspace to the deepest eigenvalue of a bounded n-particle operator which is the n expansion of some p-particle operator. Choose from every element of γp one (and only one) vector (function) and form the corresponding reduced p-particle operator. Tnp¯ is the closed convex hull of all these p-density operators (cf. Theorem 9). For p = 1, this theorem reduces to Coleman's theorem about the n representability of the 1 matrix.
Plant Polyphenols and Their Anti-Cariogenic Properties: A Review (2011)

Polyphenols constitute one of the most common groups of substances in plants. Polyphenolic compounds have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities, many of which are related to their conventional antioxidant action; however, increasing scientific knowledge has highlighted their potential activity in preventing oral disease, including the prevention of tooth decay. The aim of this review is to show the emerging findings on the anti-cariogenic properties of polyphenols, which have been obtained from several in vitro studies investigating the effects of these bioactive molecules against Streptococcus mutans, as well as in vivo studies. The analysis of the literature supports the anti-bacterial role of polyphenols on cariogenic streptococci, suggesting (1) a direct effect against S. mutans; (2) an interaction with microbial membrane proteins inhibiting the adherence of bacterial cells to the tooth surface; and (3) the inhibition of glucosyl transferase and amylase. However, more studies, particularly in vivo and in situ, are necessary to establish conclusive evidence for the effectiveness and the clinical applications of these compounds in the prevention of dental caries. It is essential to better determine the nature and distribution of these compounds in our diet and to identify which of the hundreds of existing polyphenols are likely to provide the greatest effects.
Toward carrier cloud: Potential, challenges, and solutions (2014)

Mobile operators are in need of means to cope with the ever increasing mobile data traffic, introducing minimal additional capital expenditures on existing infrastructures, principally due to the modest average revenue per user. Network virtualization and cloud computing techniques, along with the principles of the latter in terms of service elasticity, on-demand, and payper-use, could be important enablers for various mobile network enhancements and cost reduction. This article discusses the recent trends the mobile telecommunications market is experiencing, showcasing some of the emerging consumer products and services that are facilitating such trends. The article also discusses the challenges these trends present to mobile network operators. It also demonstrates the possibility of extending cloud computing beyond data centers toward the mobile end user, providing end-to-end mobile connectivity as a cloud service. The article introduces a set of technologies and methods for on-demand provision of a decentralized and elastic mobile network as a cloud service over a distributed network of cloud computing data centers. The concept of Follow-Me-Cloud, whereby not only data but also mobile services intelligently follow their respective users, is also introduced. The novel business opportunities behind the envisioned carrier cloud architecture and service are also discussed, considering various multi-stakeholder scenarios.
LPP EUV source development for HVM (2006)

This paper provides a detailed review of development progress for a laser-produced-plasma (LPP) extreme-ultra-violet (EUV) source with performance goals targeted to meet joint requirements from all leading scanner manufacturers. We present the latest results on drive laser power and efficiency, source fuel, conversion efficiency, debris mitigation techniques, multi-layer-mirror coatings, collector efficiency, intermediate-focus (IF) metrology, mass-limited droplet generation, laser-to-droplet targeting control, and system use and experience. Results from several full-scale prototype systems are discussed. In addition, a multitude of smaller lab-scale experimental systems have also been constructed and tested. This paper reviews the latest experimental results obtained on these systems with a focus on the topics most critical for an HVM source. Laser produced plasma systems have been researched as probable light source candidates for an EUV scanner for optical imaging of circuit features at 32nm and beyond nodes on the ITRS roadmap. LPP systems have inherent advantages over alternative source types, such as Discharge Produced Plasma (DPP), with respect to power scalability, etendue, collector efficiency, and component lifetime. The capability to scale LPP power with repetition rate and modular design is shown. A path to meet requirements for production scanners planned well into the next decade is presented. This paper includes current testing results using a 320mm diameter near-normal-incidence elliptical collector, the first to be tested in a full-scale LPP system. With the collector in-situ, intermediate focus (IF) metrology capability is enabled, and data is presented that describes the quality of light at IF.
Pediatric bronchiectasis: No longer an orphan disease (2016)

Bronchiectasis is described classically as a chronic pulmonary disorder characterized by a persistent productive cough and irreversible dilatation of one or more bronchi. However, in children unable to expectorate, cough may instead be wet and intermittent and bronchial dilatation reversible in the early stages. Although still considered an orphan disease, it is being recognized increasingly as causing significant morbidity and mortality in children and adults in both affluent and developing countries. While bronchiectasis has multiple etiologies, the final common pathway involves a complex interplay between the host, respiratory pathogens and environmental factors. These interactions lead to a vicious cycle of repeated infections, airway inflammation and tissue remodelling resulting in impaired airway clearance, destruction of structural elements within the bronchial wall causing them to become dilated and small airway obstruction. In this review, the current knowledge of the epidemiology, pathobiology, clinical features, and management of bronchiectasis in children are summarized. Recent evidence has emerged to improve our understanding of this heterogeneous disease including the role of viruses, and how antibiotics, novel drugs, antiviral agents, and vaccines might be used. Importantly, the management is no longer dependent upon extrapolating from the cystic fibrosis experience. Nevertheless, substantial information gaps remain in determining the underlying disease mechanisms that initiate and sustain the pathophysiological pathways leading to bronchiectasis. National and international collaborations, standardizing definitions of clinical and research end points, and exploring novel primary prevention strategies are needed if further progress is to be made in understanding, treating and even preventing this often life-limiting disease.
Applications of the integrated waveguide grating router (1994)

Discretely tunable filter, receiver, and laser devices based on the integration of wavelength router/multiplexers with active elements are proposed. Each of these functions has been demonstrated experimentally in integrated form in InGaAsP, and will be published elsewhere. Such devices are key elements in WDM networks.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
A fully four-dimensional, iterative motion estimation and compensation method for cardiac CT (2012)

We developed a fully 4D image reconstruction method that alternates ME and MCR algorithms in an iterative fashion. Performance tests using clinical patient data resulted in reduced motion artifacts.
Drawing lines and borders: how the dehiscent fruit ofArabidopsis is patterned (2004)

The advent of fruits marked a key innovation in the evolution of flowering plants and helped generate a diverse array of mechanisms for seed dispersal. In the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, seed dispersal occurs through a process known as "pod-shatter" in which the fruit structure falls to pieces upon light mechanical pressures. This dispersal mechanism is dependent on the careful patterning of tissues in the fruit, which perform diverse functions that enable the fruit to open at maturation. Using the genetic power of Arabidopsis, many of the molecular components that help specify these tissues have been identified. Studies of the interactions among these genes have revealed a regulatory network that limits processes such as cell-cell separation and lignification to discreet regions of the fruit. Knowledge of these processes in a model fruit creates a foundation on which to build an understanding of the evolution of fruit form in other species and provides tools to engineer shatter-resistant seed pods to prevent crop loss in plants of agronomic importance such as canola.
Distinct Slime Polysaccharide Depolymerases of Bacteriophage-Infected <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa:</i> Evidence of Close Association with the Structured Bacteriophage Particle (1969)

Five new polysaccharide depolymerases were isolated from cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infected with phages 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. The production of enzyme paralleled the release of phage. Depolymerase associated with phage 8 was active on slime polysaccharide A, whereas depolymerases associated with phages 6, 7, 9, and 10, like pseudomonas phage 2, hydrolyzed slime polysaccharide B. None of the depolymerases was active on slime polysaccharide C. Despite exhaustive purification, depolymerase activity was found to band with the phage particles at a density of 1.49 to 1.51 g/ml in a density gradient composed to cesium chloride. These results suggest that the depolymerases are firmly bound to the phage particles.
Haptic Interfaces for Mobile Devices: A Survey of the State of the Art (2010)

Recently, the mobile device industry has embraced haptic feedback in the form of vibrotactile sensations. With the advances in actuator and control design, a great variety of tactile stimuli such as short pulses and various vibrations can be conveyed to users. Natural interfacing methods have become an important issue in this field, because gestures in relation to mobile devices are the most informative means of expressing the user’s intention. Haptic feedback can then notify the user of the success of a gestural input. The development of mobile devices that incorporate haptic feedback may mutually affect the development of application software such as web-based programs, games, and location-sensitive media. For more realistic haptic interaction, the development of new haptic interfaces for mobile devices should be based not only on system performance but also on further fundamental research into human perception and usability. This paper will cover interaction methods and application areas in mobile devices, followed by discussion of the trends for various devices equipped with tactile feedback, such as touchpad- and pen-based systems.
Constrained conditional resource sharing in pipeline synthesis (2003)

A conditional resource-sharing algorithm for pipeline synthesis is presented. It allows sharing of hardware components among the mutually exclusive parts of any conditional branches appearing in a behavioral description. If done improperly, resource sharing in a conditional branch can increase its critical path delay excessively, causing performance degradation. Given area/time constraints for a pipelined design, finding an optimal conditional sharing solution is a combinatorial optimization problem. The algorithm uses heuristics with a user-defined weight that trades off area versus time; the algorithm is either manually or automatically iterated by changing the weight until a solution close to the target is obtained or is determined to be impossible to obtain. The algorithm is interactive, so designers can manually determine partial or whole sharing.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Mechanical properties of vapour-grown carbon fibres (1987)

Vapour-grown carbon fibres are formed by depositing layers of carbon from hydrocarbon pyrolysis on precursors of filamentous carbon. They are partially graphitic with the basal planes preferentially oriented as nested coaxial cylinders. As the fibres are axially strained, their stiffness increases by about 28%, probably due to strain-induced increase in the preferred orientation. Vapour-grown fibres 7.5 mu m in diameter have a tensile strength of 2.92 GPa (0.42*106 PSI) and a modulus of 237 GPa (34*106 PSI). Both the tensile strength and the modulus shows an apparent dependence on fibre diameter. Larger-diameter fibres have a lower modulus and tensile strength than smaller-diameter fibres. This apparent dependence of fibre mechanical properties on diameter is shown to be due to nonuniform carbon deposition rates along the length of the fibre growth reactor. In a given growth experiment, a range of fibre diameters are produced in a fixed period with the larger-diameter fibres deposited at a higher rate. X-ray studies of fibres having a range of diameters and hence deposition rates show that the graphitic ordering of small-diameter fibres (low deposition rates) is more complete than that of large-diameter fibres, thus accounting for the larger modulus of small-diameter fibres.
Expression of p53, CD44v6 and VEGF in Gastric Adenocarcinomas (2001)

Purpose: The p53 protein is a tumor supressor gene, and its mutation is associated with biologic aggressiveness. CD44v6, one of the CD44 family, is a cell surface glycoprotein that plays a role in cancer invasion and metastasis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is another recently identified growth factor with significant angiogenic properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate p53, CD44v6, and VEGF expressions to determine whether degree of expression was related to pathological parameters such as Lauren's classification, depth of invasion, and lymph node metastasis. Materials and Methods: Immunohistochemical stains of p53, CD44v6, and VEGF in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections of 125 gastric adenocarcinomas were done. Results: The overall expression rates of p53, CD44v6, and VEGF were (68/125), (46/125), and (60/125), respectively. The p53, not CD44v6 and VEGF was higher in intestinal-type gastric carcinomas by Lauren's classification. The expressions of p53, CD44v6, and VEGF were statistically correlated with depth of tumor invasion. The expression of CD44v6 was higher in the lymph node metastatic group than in the negative group. The p53 expression was significantly associated with VEGF expression. Conclusions: These data suggest that the expressions of p53, CD44v6, and VEGF are biologically related to malignancy. The p53 and CD44v6 expressions are independent; however, p53 gene mutation is one of the contributing factors to VEGF expression in gastric adenocarcinoma.
Immunomagnetic tumor cell selection—implications for the detection of disseminated cancer cells (2000)

HEA bead selection in combination with the standard immunocytochemistry method is a powerful and specific tool for the detection of disseminated cancer cells without false-positive results. Furthermore, it delivers enough cells for subsequent investigations such as characterization studies.
Improving the High-Frequency Performance of Coaxial-to-Microstrip Transitions (2011)

This paper presents a new design to improve the transmission characteristics of coaxial-to-microstrip transitions. A metallic ring is added to a conventional coaxial structure to serve as a buffer between a coaxial line and a microstrip line. The introduction of the metallic ring reduces the insertion loss of the transition caused by the sudden changes of the electromagnetic field distributions from one transmission line to another. This improvement is more prominent at higher frequencies; hence, the 1-dB transmission passband of the transition is increased significantly. A practical design example is implemented and measured. The increase of the 1-dB passband is more than 60%. The new design is also proven to be suitable for transitions between various coaxial cables/connectors and microstrip lines on different substrates or another commonly used planar transmission line, the coplanar waveguides. The robust nature of this design makes its performance not susceptible to the fabrication and assembly errors of the transitions. These characteristics qualify the proposed design as an excellent candidate for coaxial-to-microstrip transitions at higher frequencies.
