Graphene nanoribbon–PVA composite as EMI shielding material in the X band (2013)

A very thin graphene nanoribbon/polyvinyl alcohol (GNR/PVA) composite film has been developed which is light weight and requires a very low concentration of filler to achieve electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding as high as 60 dB in the X band. Atomic force microscope studies show very well conjugated filler concentration in the PVA matrix for varying concentrations of GNR supported by Raman spectroscopy data. The films show 14 orders of increase in conductivity with a GNR concentration of 0.75% [corrected] in PVA. This is possible because of the interconnected GNR network providing a very low percolation threshold as observed from the electrical measurements. Local density of states study of GNR using scanning tunnelling spectroscopy shows the presence of localized states near the Fermi energy. There are multiple advantages of GNR as an EMI shielding material in a polymer matrix. It has good dispersion in water, the conductive network in the composite shows very high electrical conductivity for a very low concentration of GNR and the presence of localized density of states near Fermi energy provides the spin states required for the absorbance of radiation energy in the X band.
T helper cells plasticity in inflammation (2013)

CD4+ T cells can be subdivided from a functional point of view into two main subsets: effector cells, which provide protection against exogenous offending agents, and regulatory T (Treg) cells whose function is to avoid autoimmune reactions and to stop the effector response against exogenous antigens, when the response itself becomes dangerous for the host. Human effector CD4+ T lymphocytes can be additionally classified into lineages based mainly on their immunological functions that are supported by distinct profile of cytokine, transcription factor, and homing receptors expression. In the last years, beyond the well known populations of human T helper (Th) lymphocytes, Th1 and Th2 cells, other populations have been discovered and phenotypically characterized. These include the Th17 subset, which is certainly the most intensively studied, but also Th22, Th9, and T follicular helper (Tfh) lymphocytes. In addition to their protective functions, these T helper populations are also involved in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory immune-mediated disorders. Th1 and Th17 cells are involved in the pathogenesis of organ-specific autoimmune diseases and other chronic inflammatory disorders, whereas allergen-specific Th2 lymphocytes play a crucial role in allergy. Although classically viewed as distinct lineages, recent evidence indicate that CD4+ T cells, particularly the Th17 subset, are more plastic than previously thought. It is not fully understood how often such plasticity occurs in the course of physiologic responses to pathogens and what its importance is in protective immunity, but in inflammatory conditions Th17 lymphocytes that have shifted towards a Th1 or Th2 phenotype, acquiring the ability to produce IFN-γ or IL-4, and seem to be particularly aggressive and more pathogenic than the unshifted cells. In this context, the possibility to interfere with this modulation of phenotype can be considered a possible target for developing novel therapeutic strategies in the above mentioned diseases.
Performance evaluation of constraint-based path selection algorithms (2004)

Constraint-based path selection is an invaluable part of a full-fledged quality of service (QoS) architecture. Internet service providers want to be able to select paths for QoS flows that optimize network utilization and satisfy user requirements and as such increase revenues. Unfortunately, finding a path subject to multiple constraints is known to be an NP-complete problem. Hence, accurate constraint-based path selection algorithms with a fast running time are scarce. Numerous heuristics and a few exact algorithms have been proposed. In this article we compare most of these algorithms. We focus on the restricted shortest path algorithms and multi-constrained path algorithms. The performance evaluation of these two classes of algorithms is presented based on complexity analysis and simulation results and may shed some light on the difficult task of selecting the proper algorithm for a QoS-capable network.
Molecular Markers in Sex Hormone Pathway Genes Associated with the Efficacy of Androgen-Deprivation Therapy for Prostate Cancer (2013)

Although most advanced prostate cancer patients respond to androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), the efficacy is widely variable. We investigated whether the host genetic variations in sex hormone pathway genes are associated with the efficacy of ADT. A cohort of 645 patients with advanced prostate cancer treated with ADT was genotyped for 18 polymorphisms across 12 key genes involved in androgen and estrogen metabolism. We found that after adjusting for known risk factors in multivariate Cox regression models, AKR1C3 rs12529 and AR-CAG repeat length remained significantly associated with prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) after ADT (P ≤ 0.041). Furthermore, individuals carrying two unfavorable genotypes at these loci presented a 13.7-fold increased risk of PCSM compared with individuals carrying zero (P<0.001). Our results identify two candidate molecular markers in key genes of androgen and estrogen pathways associated with PCSM after ADT, establishing the role of pharmacogenomics in this therapy.
Free‐radical polymerization of olefins (1964)

Abstract Propylene, butene‐1, isobutylene, 3,3‐dimethylbutene‐1, and tetradecene‐1 were polymerized at high pressures at 130–150°C. with dixy1 tert ‐butyl peroxide initiator to give low molecular weight polymers. Free radical copolymerization of propylene and isobutylene was also demonstrated. Facile chain transfer to give relatively stable radicals was blamed for the low rates and degrees of polymerization. The molecular weights were shown to be controlled by chain transfer.

We propose a communication system that can be used for telemedicine to improve the Quality of Life of individuals, which uses a sensor network and a sensor database with mutual authentication to ensure security. Finally, this paper describes the priority control mechanism and experiments using it and clarifies the real-time performance of the proposed communication sensor network system.
Adrenalectomy sensitizes mice to the lethal effects of interleukin 1 and tumor necrosis factor. (1988)

To clarify the possible role of TNF and IL-1 in endotoxic shock, the lethality of rTNF (human and murine) and IL-1 in adrenalectomized mice was studied. Adrenalectomy, which has long been known to increase the susceptibility to endotoxin, rendered mice susceptible to TNF and IL-1 in terms of mortality. The lethality of endotoxin, TNF, or IL-1 was totally prevented by pretreatment with dexamethasone (minimal effective dose, 0.3 mg/Kg) but not by ibuprofen (10 mg/Kg).

Two-dimensional magneto-optical trap as a source of slow atoms (1998)

We experimentally study the use of two-dimensional magneto-optical trapping (2D-MOT) for the generation of slow beams of cold atoms out of a vapor cell. A particularly high flux of $9\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{9}$ rubidium atoms/s at a mean velocity of 8 m/s is obtained using a combination of magneto-optical trapping in two dimensions and Doppler cooling in the third dimension $({2\mathrm{D}}^{+}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{MOT}).$ The resulting width of the velocity distribution is 3.3 m/s [full width at half maximum (FWHM)] with a beam divergence of 43 mrad (FWHM). We investigate the total flux as a function of vapor cell pressure and determine the velocity distribution of our slow atom sources. For comparison, we also realized a low-velocity intense source (LVIS), first reported by Lu et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 3331 (1996)]. We find that the ${2\mathrm{D}}^{+}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{MOT}$ yields a significantly higher flux than the LVIS, even when used with an order of magnitude less laser power.
Mechanical properties of high-aspect-ratio atomic-force microscope tips (2002)

Focused-electron-beam-deposited carbon atomic-force microscope tips were characterized using flexural vibrations excited with piezoelectric transducers and observed directly inside a scanning electron microscope. Frequencies in the high-MHz range were measured and the elastic modulus was estimated to be 0.54±0.16 TPa.
Exploiting a host-commensal interaction to promote intestinal barrier function and enteric pathogen tolerance (2016)

Commensal intestinal bacteria can prevent pathogenic infection; however, limited knowledge of the mechanisms by which individual bacterial species contribute to pathogen resistance has restricted their potential for therapeutic application. Here, we examined how colonization of mice with a human commensal <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> protects against enteric infections. We show that <i>E. faecium</i> improves host intestinal epithelial defense programs to limit <i>Salmonella enterica</i> serotype Typhimurium pathogenesis <i>in vivo</i> in multiple models of susceptibility. <i>E. faecium</i> protection is mediated by a unique peptidoglycan hydrolase, SagA, and requires epithelial expression of pattern recognition receptor components and antimicrobial peptides. Ectopic expression of SagA in non-protective and probiotic bacteria is sufficient to enhance intestinal barrier function and confer resistance against <i>S.</i> Typhimurium and <i>Clostridium difficile</i> pathogenesis. These studies demonstrate that specific factors from commensal bacteria can be used to improve host barrier function and limit the pathogenesis of distinct enteric infections.

Also those analytic results are used for design of the suggested cascaded CCA in the simulation.
High-level area and power estimation for VLSI circuits (1999)

High-level power estimation, when given only a high-level design specification such as a functional or register-transfer level (RTL) description, requires high-level estimation of the circuit average activity and total capacitance. Considering that total capacitance is related to circuit area, this paper addresses the problem of computing the "area complexity" of multi-output combinational logic given only their functional description, i.e., Boolean equations, where area complexity refers to the number of gates required for an optimal multilevel implementation of the combinational logic. The proposed area model is based on transforming the multi-output Boolean function description into an equivalent single output function. The area model is empirical and results demonstrating its feasibility and utility are presented. Also, a methodology for converting the gate count estimates, obtained from the area model, into capacitance estimates is presented. High-level power estimates based on the total capacitance estimates and average activity estimates are also presented.
Simultaneous elimination of carryover contamination and detection of DNA with uracil-DNA-glycosylase-supplemented loop-mediated isothermal amplification (UDG-LAMP) (2014)

Elevated Nonesterified Fatty Acid Concentrations in Severe Preeclampsia Shift the Isoelectric Characteristics of Plasma Albumin<sup>1</sup> (1997)

We previously hypothesized that the endothelial cell dysfunction observed in women with preeclampsia might be caused by an imbalance between circulating very low density lipoproteins and a cytoprotective pI 5.6 isoform of albumin, referred to as toxicity preventing albumin (TxPA). An accurate simplified method was developed to quantify TxPA in small volumes of pregnancy plasma by gel electrofocusing. This assay revealed that circulating TxPA concentrations in women with severe preeclampsia were significantly reduced compared to those in normal pregnant women and women with benign transient hypertension of pregnancy. Nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) and triglycerides were elevated in plasma from women with severe preeclampsia compared to those in plasma from the two control groups. The inverse correlation between TxPA and NEFA values led us to analyze the NEFA bound to plasma albumin. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry demonstrated no qualitative differences in the specific fatty acids bound to plasma albumin in severe preeclamptic and normal pregnant women. However, the quantity of NEFA bound to albumin was greater in preeclampsia plasma (2.5 mol NEFA/mol albumin) compared to that in normal pregnancy plasma (0.8 mol NEFA/mol albumin), accounting for the acidic pI shift observed in albumin from the former patients. Functional assays demonstrated that human very low density lipoprotein particles were toxic to human umbilical vein endothelial cells in vitro, but this toxicity was prevented by the addition of TxPA albumin to the culture medium.
<title>Combining the best of bulk and surface micromachining using Si (111) substrates</title> (1998)

This process combines the best features of bulk and surface micromachining. It enables the production of stress free, thick, virtually arbitrarily shaped structures with well defined, thick or thin sacrificial layers, high sacrificial layer selectivity and large undercuts using IC compatible, processes. The basis of this approach is the use of readily available {111} oriented substrates, anisotropic Si trench etching, SiN masking and KOH etching.
The effect of cytoplasmic regions of LIF receptor on activating MAPK p42/44 in HL-60 cell (2001)

Objective: To study the relation between the cytoplasmic region of each subunit of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) receptor and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in human leukemia line HL-60 for studying the mechanism of leukemia cell proliferation disorder. Methods: We prepared the chimerical receptor with exchanged cytoplasmic domain (190/130,130/190), expressed it on the membrane of HL-60, and then bound LIF with the wild type receptor competitively. The cytoplasmic region homodimerization (190cyt- 190cyt, 130cyt- 130cyt) initiated intracellular signal transduction, cell proliferation and differentiation. MAPK phosphorylation level was observed by means of immunoblotting and immunobiochemistry. Results: Higher level ofMAPK p42/p44 phosphorylation (Thr202Tyr204) and faster cell proliferation were determined in group 190/130 compared with the wild type receptor. Those in group 130/190 were lower than the others. Conclusion: The cytoplasmic domain ofgpl30 involves in the induction of MAPK activation and the cell proliferation of HL-60.
Modified neural networks for rapid recovery of tokamak plasma parameters for real time control (2002)

Two modified neural network techniques are used for the identification of the equilibrium plasma parameters of the Superconducting Steady State Tokamak I from external magnetic measurements. This is expected to ultimately assist in a real time plasma control. As different from the conventional network structure where a single network with the optimum number of processing elements calculates the outputs, a multinetwork system connected in parallel does the calculations here in one of the methods. This network is called the double neural network. The accuracy of the recovered parameters is clearly more than the conventional network. The other type of neural network used here is based on the statistical function parametrization combined with a neural network. The principal component transformation removes linear dependences from the measurements and a dimensional reduction process reduces the dimensionality of the input space. This reduced and transformed input set, rather than the entire set, is fed into the neural network input. This is known as the principal component transformation-based neural network. The accuracy of the recovered parameters in the latter type of modified network is found to be a further improvement over the accuracy of the double neural network. This result differs from that obtained in an earlier work where the double neural network showed better performance. The conventional network and the function parametrization methods have also been used for comparison. The conventional network has been used for an optimization of the set of magnetic diagnostics. The effective set of sensors, as assessed by this network, are compared with the principal component based network. Fault tolerance of the neural networks has been tested. The double neural network showed the maximum resistance to faults in the diagnostics, while the principal component based network performed poorly. Finally the processing times of the methods have been compared. The double network and the principal component network involve the minimum computation time, although the conventional network also performs well enough to be used in real time.
FIRE HAZARD EVALUATION OF CABLES AND MATERIALS (1975)

Test methods currently used for testing cables and cable materials are discussed and improved techniques are proposed. The virtues of the proposed techniques are illustrated by means of a typical fire retardant cable compound development. Finally the concept of a fire hazard rating system is introduced as a rationalization of the interpretation of cable and materials flammability testing.
A High-Temperature X-ray Camera for use with Plate Specimens (1949)

The paper describes the construction of an X-ray camera suitable for use with plate specimens at temperatures up to about 1000 C. It is arranged that the specimen rotates in its own plane and is at the same time oscillated through small angles about a vertical in its surface. To surmount difficulties arising from the orientation of the crystals in the specimen it is also arranged that the X-ray beam falls on the surface of the specimen at various glancing angles during the exposure. These movements and adjustments are executed when the specimen, during irradiation, is maintained at high temperature in vacuo. The temperature of the specimen is measured either by measuring the parameter of a standard substance whose thermal coefficient of expansion is accurately known and which is exposed to the X-rays simultaneously and under the same conditions as the specimen under examination, or by calibrating the furnace with standard substances and employing the current through the furnace as an index of the temperature. The part of the apparatus, the camera proper, on which the X-ray film is mounted can be removed for the processing of the film and replaced again after reloading without disturbing the rest of the apparatus. Samples of structure-spectra taken with a double specimen, aluminium and silver, at different temperatures are given.
