High-performance, low-power skewed static logic in very deep-submicron (VDSM) technology (2002)

This paper presents S/sup 2/L, which exhibits low-power, high-speed with use of positive feedback circuits and dual Vt. Topology-dependent dual Vt approach suppresses leakage current while boosting the performance in VDSM technology. S/sup 2/L consumes less dynamic and static power compared to Monotonic Static (MS) CMOS. We present simulation results of NAND-NOR gate chains and 32-b adders to demonstrate the effectiveness of the S/sup 2/L compared to other techniques. Design automation for the proposed circuit architecture can be achieved easily due to cascading flexibility.

Assiciations of Hypertension and Its Complications with Variations in the Xanthine Dehydrogenase Gene (2008)

Hyperuricemia and oxidative stress participate in the pathophysiology of hypertension and its complications. Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) produces urate and, in its oxidase isoform, reactive oxygen species. Here we have studied whether or not the genetic variations in XDH could be implicated in hypertension and its complications. By sequencing the promoter region and all exons of XDH in 48 subjects, we identified three missense mutations (G172R, A932T, N1109T) in a heterozygous state in addition to 34 variations, including 15 common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The three missense mutations and eight common SNPs (11488C>G, 37387A>G, 44408A>G, 46774G>A, 47686C>T, 49245A>T, 66292C>G, and 69901A>C) were genotyped in 953 hypertensive Japanese subjects and in 1,818 subjects from a general Japanese population. Four hypertensive patients with rare missense mutations (G172R or N1109T) in homozygous form had severe hypertension. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant association of three SNPs with hypertension in men: 47686C>T (exon 22, odds ratio [OR]: 1.52, p = 0.047) and 69901A>C (intron 31, OR: 3.14, p = 0.039) in the recessive model, and 67873A>C (N1109T) (exon 31, OR: 1.84, p = 0.018) in the dominant model. After full adjustment for all confounding factors, only one polymorphism (69901A>C) was found to be associated with carotid atherosclerosis in the dominant model (p = 0.028). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that one SNP (66292C>G) was significantly associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD: estimated creatinine clearance < 60 ml/min) in the recessive model (p = 0.0006). Our results suggest that genetic variations in XDH contribute partly to hypertension and its complications, including atherosclerosis and CKD.
Colossal Magnetoresistance, Charge Ordering and Related Properties of Manganese Oxides (1998)

An aspect of metal oxides, colossal magnetoresistance exhibited by certain manganese oxides, in particular rare-earth manganates of perovskite structure, has received much attention in recent years. Some of these oxides show 100 per cent magnetoresistance, and have potential for technological applications. This text begins with a review of the topics of colossal magnetoresistance, charge ordering and related phenomena exhibited by oxides, and presents contributions covering the present status of the subject.
Learning aided mood and dialect recognition using telephonic speech (2016)

Speech is the most basic means of human communication and contains information regarding message, speaker's identity, dialects, mood and so on. Emotion is an integral part of speech that plays a vital role in the improvement of speech recognition system. The task of dialect recognition also helps in improving the automatic speech recognition (ASR) system for more natural communication between human and machines. In our paper, we report the design of a mood and dialect recognition system for Assamese telephonic speech using Fourier parameters. The Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and its first order derivatives and also the Fourier parameters are derived and the comparative performance for the recognition of various moods and major dialects of Assamese language obtained from Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Distributed Time Delay Neural Network (DTDNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) is reported here.
Expanded Human Blood-Derived Î³Î´T Cells Display Potent Antigen-Presentation Functions (2014)

Cell-based immunotherapy strategies target tumors directly (via cytolytic effector cells) or aim at mobilizing endogenous anti-tumor immunity. The latter approach includes dendritic cells (DC) most frequently in the form of in vitro cultured peripheral blood monocytes-derived DC. Human blood γδT cells are selective for a single class of non-peptide agonists ("phosphoantigens") and develop into potent antigen-presenting cells (APC), termed γδT-APC within 1-3 days of in vitro culture. Availability of large numbers of γδT-APC would be advantageous for use as a novel cellular vaccine. We here report optimal γδT cell expansion (>10(7) cells/ml blood) when peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy individuals and melanoma patients were stimulated with zoledronate and then cultured for 14 days in the presence of IL-2 and IL-15, yielding γδT cell cultures of variable purity (77 ± 21 and 56 ± 26%, respectively). They resembled effector memory αβT (TEM) cells and retained full functionality as assessed by in vitro tumor cell killing as well as secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IFNγ, TNFα) and cell proliferation in response to stimulation with phosphoantigens. Importantly, day 14 γδT cells expressed numerous APC-related cell surface markers and, in agreement, displayed potent in vitro APC functions. Day 14 γδT cells from PBMC of patients with cancer were equally effective as their counterparts derived from blood of healthy individuals and triggered potent CD8(+) αβT cell responses following processing and cross-presentation of simple (influenza M1) and complex (tuberculin purified protein derivative) protein antigens. Of note, and in clear contrast to peripheral blood γδT cells, the ability of day 14 γδT cells to trigger antigen-specific αβT cell responses did not depend on re-stimulation. We conclude that day 14 γδT cell cultures provide a convenient source of autologous APC for use in immunotherapy of patients with various cancers.
Three-loop feedback control of fault-tolerant power supplies in IBM Enterprise System/9000 processors (1992)

In an Enterprise System/9000™ (ES/9000™) processor, a fault-tolerant power system composed of multiple power supplies connected in parallel provides thousands of amperes of current to low-voltage (1–2 V) logic circuit boards, monitors the voltage at each board, and immediately responds to compensate for failure of a supply. If a supply fails, the very fast closed-loop response redistributes the current uniformity among the remaining supplies and allows the normal functioning of the processor logic to continue uninterrupted. This rapid response is not obtained from a conventional two-loop (current-mode) feedback power supply because the loop bandwidth is restricted by a resonance that develops in the power distribution. A third feedback loop that is added to each supply controls this power distribution resonance and makes possible the wide loop bandwidth necessary to achieve the required power system control. Analysis is presented of a three-loop control system, and a simulation of its application to a typical ES/9000 power system is described.

Pharmacokinetics of anastrozole and tamoxifen alone and in combination, during adjuvant endocrine therapy for early breast cancer in postmenopausal women: a sub-protocol of the ‘Arimidex™ and Tamoxifen Alone or in Combination’ (ATAC) trial (2001)

The ATAC trial evaluates in a randomized, double-blind design, Arimidextrade mark (anastrozole) alone or in combination with tamoxifen, relative to tamoxifen alone as 5-year adjuvant treatment in postmenopausal women with early breast cancer. Patients included in the pharmacokinetic (PK) sub-protocol had been in ATAC for > or =3 months, taking their medication in the morning and were 100% compliant for the preceding 14 days. Blood samples were collected 24 +/- 4 h after last dose. Trough (C(min)) plasma concentrations of anastrozole, tamoxifen and desmethyltamoxifen (DMT) were measured by validated methods. The PK results were based on a total of 347 patients (131 anastrozole (1 mg o.d.), 111 tamoxifen (20 mg o.d.), 105 anastrozole and tamoxifen (1 and 20 mg o.d. respectively)). The geometric mean steady-state trough plasma concentrations of tamoxifen and DMT were statistically equivalent in patients receiving tamoxifen alone or in combination with anastrozole: geometric mean tamoxifen = 94.8 ng ml(-1)and 95.3 ng ml(-1)in tamoxifen alone and combination groups, respectively; geometric mean DMT = 265.1 and 277.6 ng ml(-1)in the tamoxifen and anastrozole and tamoxifen groups, respectively. The geometric mean anastrozole levels were 27% lower (90% Cl 20-33%;P< 0.001) in the presence of tamoxifen than with anastrozole alone. Baseline plasma oestradiol levels were not obtained in the PK sub-protocol, however, such information was available from a similar ATAC sub-protocol, which evaluated bone mineral density. Mean oestradiol levels were 21.3, 19.3, and 21.6 pmol l(-1)prior to treatment and 3.7, 20.9 and 3.6 pmol l(-1)after 3 months in the anastrozole, tamoxifen, and combination groups, respectively (n = 167). On-treatment values were below the detection limit (3 pmol l(-1)) in 43.6 and 38.5% of the anastrozole alone and anastrozole in combination with tamoxifen groups, respectively. As a result of (a) the lack of effect of anastrozole on tamoxifen and DMT levels and (b) the observed fall in blood anastrozole levels having no significant effect on oestradiol suppression by anastrozole, we conclude that the observed reduction in anastrozole levels by tamoxifen is unlikely to be of clinical significance when anastrozole and tamoxifen are administered together.

Solution‐Phase Synthesis and High Photocatalytic Activity of Wurtzite ZnSe Ultrathin Nanobelts: A General Route to 1D Semiconductor Nanostructured Materials (2007)

A general and facile synthetic route has been developed to prepare 1D semiconductor nanomaterials in a binary solution of distilled water and ethanol amine. The influence of the volume ratio of mixed solvents and reaction temperature on the yield and final morphology of products was investigated. Significantly, this is the first time that wurtzite ZnSe ultrathin nanobelts have been synthesized in solution. It has been confirmed that the photocatalytic activity of ZnSe nanobelts in the photodegradation of the fuchsine acid is higher than that of TiO(2) nanoparticles. The present work shows that the solvothermal route is facile, cheap, and versatile. Thus, it is very easy to realize scaled-up production, and brings new light on the synthesis and self-assembly of functional materials.
Optimized Noninvasive Monitoring of Thermal Changes on Digital B-Mode Renal Sonography During Revascularization Therapy (2009)

The adaptive Rood pattern search proved to be the best block-matching technique, whereas the multiresolution Horn-Schunck technique was the best gradient optical flow method. The extracted thermal change during in vivo revascularization therapy is promising. In addition, we present an evaluation of several block-matching and optical flow motion estimation techniques.
Lymphoid neogenesis:<i>de novo</i>formation of lymphoid tissue in chronic inflammation through expression of homing chemokines (2001)

Chronic inflammation is a complex pathophysiological process with accumulation of mononuclear cells seen in response to invading pathogens, neoplastic transformation, or autoimmune recognition of self-antigens. The inflammatory process has evolved to facilitate effective elimination of pathogens and tumors and it is normally transient and turned off when the causative stimulus has been eliminated. Occasionally, however, the process is sustained for a long time and can lead to severe tissue damage. This is seen in organ-specific autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, but also in infectious diseases such as Helicobacter pylori-induced gastritis. Disturbingly, many of these chronic inflammatory diseases are associated with an increased risk for neoplastic transformation and development of lymphomas. This review summarizes experimental evidence suggesting that chronic inflammation involves ectopic de novo formation of organized lymphoid tissue and that this lymphoid neogenesis is regulated by expression of homing chemokines.
Register Allocation via Weighted Graph Coloring (Technical Summary) (1993)

Register allocation by coloring an interference graph is a common technique. We introduce the weighted interference graph (WIG) which improves upon previous approaches in the following ways: (i) the cost of a coloring accurately models the cost of the register assignment, (ii) arbitrary register spills are handled naturally, as the coloring implicitly determines when and what registers to spill, and (iii) the allocation granularity is freely scalable from an instruction level to a per variable level. In particular, at any granularity, a WIG models the degree of interference between two vertices, which improves upon the traditional interference graph. The weights in a WIG incorporate usage counts to reflect the relative cost for spilling a quantity. We model the savings from keeping a variable in a register via negative edge weights. Our method is ideal when near-optimal register allocation is desired and spill code is unavoidable, such as for large frequently-executed basic blocks, as might be produced by inlining and loop unrolling. We show that a WIG gives better allocations than a traditional interference graph when it matters most, namely when there are not enough registers.
Web server for Web page fingerprinting (2008)

Digital watermarking is the process of embedding information into a digital signal. If the signal is copied, then the information is also carried in the copy. Digital fingerprinting is a field of digital watermarking. That inserts unrecognized buyer’s information. In this paper, using a fingerprinting technique we insert information which is user’s IP. Thus, we present algorithm that can include user’s IP information without any change of web page. Then we search advantages of server that is processed web page fingerprinting.
Histometric evaluation of periodontal surgery II. Connective tissue attachment levels after four regenerative procedures (1980)

The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of four periodontal regenerative procedures on the connective tissue attachment level. The procedures tested were: 1) the modified Widman flap procedure, 2) the modified Widman flap procedure combined with transplantation of previously frozen autogenous red marrow and cancellous bone, 3) the modified Widman flap procedure in combination with implantation of beta tricalcium phosphate, and 4) periodic root planing and soft tissue curettage. Eight adult Rhesus monkeys, divided into four equal groups, were used. Periodontal pockets were produced around contralateral teeth in a standardized manner. In each group of animals, the pockets on one side of the jaws were subjected to one of the above-mentioned surgical treatments, while the contralateral pockets remained as unoperated controls. Three weeks before surgery, a carefully designed plaque control program was instituted and continued until the animals were sacrificed 12 months after surgery. In histologic sections, linear measurements along the root surfaces were made from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to the most apical cells of the junctional epithelium (JE). These measurements from operated and unoperated sites were then compared. The data revealed that healing following the four different regenerative procedures resulted in the reformation of an epithelial lining (long junctional epithelium) along the treated root surfaces, with no new connective tissue attachment.
Method and system for standardized and platform independent medical data information persistence in telemedicine (2008)

Wireless communication between sensors monitoring patient vital signs has become more and more important in the past few years. Essential requirements to integrate sensors of different manufacturers into a clinical network are standardized communication protocols and a unique data representation of the vital signs. Both issues are realized by CEN ENV 13734/35 ldquoVital Signs Information Representationrdquo (VITAL) [1]. The standard was implemented and integrated into a generic framework with different interfaces allowing integration of extensions [2]. In order to guarantee readability of vital signs communicated with the VITAL framework in the future, standardized storing methods are indispensable. That is why a new user interface was created that allows standardized persistence of medical data information in real time. Focussing on our implementation, we evaluated three relevant file formats: the ldquoEuropean Data Formatrdquo (EDF/EDF+), the ldquoFile Exchange Formatrdquo (FEF) and SCIPHOX.
Predictability of Fetal Birth Weight from Measurement of Fetal Thigh Circumference by Two-dimensional Ultrasound: A Prospective Study (2012)

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to compare the predictability of the Vintzileos’ formula with the Hadlock's formula in estimating the fetal weight nearest to the actual birth weight. Methods It was a prospective observational study conducted with 138 antenatal mothers with single viable fetus and no major congenital abnormalities. A two-dimensional ultrasound scan was performed between 38 and 40 weeks gestation, which measured the biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), femur length (FL) and thigh circumference (TC) at the level of midthigh, and incorporated them to estimate fetal weight using the Hadlock's and the Vintzileos’ formulae. Results For the majority of the study population (63.04%), the mean fetal weight estimated by the Vintzileos’ formula was nearer to the mean actual birth weight compared to the Hadlock's formula. There was strong correlation (Karl Pearson's correlation coefficient r = 0.98, p-value <0.05) between the sonologically estimated and the neonatal thigh circumference. Conclusion The results of this study show that the fetal thigh circumference, if incorporated with other standard biometric parameters in estimating fetal weight by ultrasound, improves the predictability of birth weight estimation, and can predict intrauterine growth restriction.

Compression of XML Physiological Data Streams to Support Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Web Services (2005)

The provision of neonatal intensive care is impacted by the lack of centralised monitoring systems within infant ICUs and the inability for neonatologists to view data from devices attached to premature babies born in regional and remote hospitals. While Web services provide a platform and language independent environment to transport numeric data streams, they must be encoded in XML, increasing the numeric data stream size considerably and thereby impacting its transmission time and the Web service performance. This research assesses compression performance on XML documents containing physiological data streams to investigate the conditions where Web service performance can be improved through the compression of XML numeric data streams. The compressors are applied to several XML physiological data streams output by a neonatal monitoring device. A key benefit of this research is its specific focus on numeric data streams within Web services.
