Is Depression Best Viewed as a Continuum or Discrete Category? A Taxometric Analysis of Childhood and Adolescent Depression in a Population-Based Sample. (2005)

The authors examined the latent structure of depression in a population-based sample of children and adolescents. Youth's self-reports and parents' reports of the youth's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM-IV; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) major depressive symptoms were assessed via a structured clinical interview. The authors used Meehl's (1995) taxometric procedures to discern whether youth depression is dimensional or categorical. Taxometric analyses that explicitly took into account the skewness of depressive symptoms suggested that depression is a dimensional, not categorical, construct. The dimensional structure of depression was obtained for all of the DSM-IV major depressive symptoms as well as for different domains of depression (emotional distress symptoms and vegetative, involuntary defeat symptoms), youth and parent reports, and different subsamples (i.e., boys vs. girls and younger vs. older youth).
Si O x ∕ Si radial superlattices and microtube optical ring resonators (2007)

Scanning and transmission electron microscopy reveals that SiOx∕Si layers can roll up into microtubes and radial superlattices on a Si substrate. These hybrid objects are thermally stable up to 850°C and emit light in the visible spectral range at room temperature. For tubes disengaged from the substrate surface, optically resonant emissions with mode spacings inversely proportional to the tube diameter are observed and agree excellently with those obtained from finite-difference time-domain simulations. The resonant modes recorded are strictly polarized along the tube axis.
The German Infant Nutritional Intervention Study (GINI): A Model for Allergy Prevention (2004)

The effect of feeding a highly palatable high-energy cafeteria diet on individual amino acid levels in plasma during postnatal development of the rat has been evaluated and compared to chow-fed controls. The cafeteria diet selected by the rats was hypercaloric and hyperlipidic, with practically the same amount of carbohydrate as the control diet, and slightly hyperproteic. In response to cafeteria feeding, significant decreases were observed in plasma serine and cysteine along the period studied. Significant changes with age during the growth period were shown by cafeteria-fed animals, which were not observed in control rats. Citrulline levels were lower on days 10 and 14 in cafeteria pups than in chow pups. Methionine was highest on day 30. Threonine was also higher at days 20 and 30, as was valine but with a nadir at day 10. Lysine showed maximal values on days 14 and 30.
EFFECTS OF WEAK AND STRONG CATION EXCHANGE RESINS ON MOISTURE UPTAKE BEHAVIOR OF RANITIDINE HYDROCHLORIDE (2007)

The aim of the present research was to study the effects of weak cation exchange resins, polacrilex with exchangeable H+ and polacrillin potassium and strong cation exchange resin sodium polystyrene sulfonate on water uptake behavior of ranitidine hydrochloride. Drug resin complexes (DRC) were prepared and evaluated for the percentage of moisture gain when placed in a humidity chamber at 40E2 °C and 75E5% RH for 17 h as compared to drug and free resins under the same condition. Equilibrium moisture content (EMC) under different humidity conditions and the rate and extent of moisture uptake in the presence (15 watt florescence light) and absence of light under 40E2 °C and 75E5% RH were also calculated for DRCs, drug and unloaded resins. DRC 264 (containing polacrilex with H+) gained minimum weight (10.22%) maintaining free flowing characteristics whereas other resinates showed higher weight gain and formation of sticky mass while ranitidine HCl turned liquid with gain of 28.11% weight. The rate of moisture uptake by ranitidine HCl was found to increase in the presence of light with slight difference in extent, whereas moisture uptake rate was independent of light in the case of resins. Even though DRC 264 contained ranitidine HCl, the moisture uptake rate was unaffected by light and saturation in moisture gain was seen just at 6 h. Thus, loading ranitidine HCl on polacrilex resin with exchangeable H+ significantly improves its moisture resistance and may not require very tight environmental controls during its formulation.

Propagation characteristics of a single-polarization optical fiber with an elliptic core and triple-clad (2003)

This paper gives the propagation characteristics of a single-polarization optical fiber with an elliptic core and triple-clad. This fiber is designed so as to satisfy the zero total dispersion at the operating wavelength of 1.55 μm in the single-polarization region. Thus far, we had studied the n propagation characteristics of single-polarization optical fibers with pits between an elliptic core and the outer cladding (Type-1) and with pits alongside the major axis of an elliptic core (Type-2). In this paper, it is found that a single-polarization optical fiber with an elliptic core and triple-clad has better propagation characteristics compared with Type-1 and Type-2. When the relative index difference between the core and the outer cladding is 0.5%, the main comparison results are as follows: 1) The minimum wavelength sensitivity of the total dispersion can be reduced by approximately 1/3 of those for Type-1 and Type-2, and 2) the single-polarization bandwidth is 2.2 times larger than those of Type-1 and Type-2.
Quantification of Carbamylated LDL in Human Sera by a New Sandwich ELISA (2005)

Abstract Background: We previously suggested that increased carbamylated LDL (cLDL), a product of nonenzymatic modification of LDL in human serum by urea-derived cyanate, may cause cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic renal insufficiency. An assay for precise measurement of cLDL in serum was not previously available. Methods: Polyclonal antibodies against human cLDL and nonmodified, native LDL (nLDL) were raised in rabbits and extensively purified by affinity chromatography. New sandwich ELISAs to measure cLDL and nLDL with use of these antibodies were developed. Serum concentrations of cLDL and nLDL were measured by the sandwich ELISAs in 41 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and 40 healthy controls. Results: Both assays showed satisfactory reproducibility, linearity, and recovery. The assays could detect 2.7 mg/L cLDL with a linear detection range of 5–1000 mg/L and 5 mg/L nLDL with a linear detection range of 50–1000 mg/L. These measurements showed that patients with ESRD have significantly increased serum cLDL [281.5 (46.9) mg/L compared with 86.1 (29.7) mg/L in a control group; P &lt;0.001]. There was no significant difference in nLDL concentrations between the groups. Conclusions: These assays are a potentially valuable tool for cardiovascular research in renal patients and healthy individuals. The cLDL concentration appears to be the highest among all previously described modified LDL isoforms in both controls and ESRD patients.
BIRDS AT AIRPORTS (1994)

Birds have been a hazard to aircraft from the first powered flight. During the early days of aviation, when aircraft flew at slow speeds, birds had little difficulty in getting out of the way. Bird strikes were infrequent and damage was mainly confined to cracked windshields. The likelihood of the loss of aircraft and/or human lives was remote. With the development and introduction of jet aircraft, bird strikes became a serious hazard and costly problem. Faster speeds mean birds have less time to react to approaching aircraft. The force gener-
Tumor progression in vivo: increased soybean agglutinin lectin binding, N-acetylgalactosamine-specific lectin expression, and liver metastasis potential. (1992)

Tumors which grew out from threshold s.c. inocula of L5178Y-F9 and SL2-5 murine T-cell lymphomas in syngeneic DBA/2 mice exhibited a unified natural defense-resistant phenotype including an increased tumorigenicity and correlating reductions in susceptibility to natural antibodies, natural killer cells, and activated macrophages in vitro. The metastatic potential and cell surface saccharide expression of these cells were determined to assess the impact of growth from a small tumor focus in vivo on subsequent metastatic ability and to determine whether there was any association with changes in cell surface carbohydrates, which have been implicated now for many years in tumor development. A significantly increased liver-colonizing ability was observed following i.v. injection. The most consistent change in cell surface saccharide expression detected in studies using five lectins was an increase in N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (D-GalNAc)-specific soybean agglutinin (SBA) binding. The log of experimental liver metastasis, SBA binding, and the percentage of hepatocyte rosetting of the parental and in vivo-selected cells exhibited significant direct correlations. While inhibition of rosetting with in vivo-selected lines by D-GalNAc and galactose was consistent with the involvement of the D-galactose/D-GalNAc-specific hepatocyte receptor, preincubation of the tumor cells but not hepatocytes with D-GalNAc inhibited hepatocyte rosetting and D-GalNAc inhibited homotypic tumor cell binding. These data suggest a role for a saccharide-specific, lectin-like receptor on tumor cells in both interactions and therefore in the increased experimental liver metastasis. Furthermore, the increased expression of D-GalNAc-inhibitable SBA binding sites on the in vivo-selected variants should increase the homotypic binding by the D-GalNAc-specific lectin-like receptors on the tumor cells providing a rationale for the direct relationship observed between increased SBA binding and i.v. metastatic potential.
Synthesis of aromatic polyethers by cation‐radical polymerization (1992)

Abstract This paper discusses the synthesis of aromatic polyethers including poly(ether sulfone)s, poly(ether ether ketone)s, fully aromatic polyethers and polyarylenes by the cation‐radical polymerization (Scholl reaction) of bisaryl monomers. The polymerizability of various monomers is discussed with respect to the effects of the monomer structure on the reactivity of both the monomers and of the cation‐radical growing species. Examples are provided for the synthesis of polymers of unique structure by the cation‐radical polymerization reactions. The cation‐radical polymerization reactions have been studied under a variety of experimental conditions. The oxidants used as initiators include various Lewis acids and their combinations such as FeCl 3 , AlCl 3 /CuCl 2 , AlCl 3 /CuCl/O 2 , AlCl 3 /FeCl 3 , FeCl 3 :tris(3,6‐dioxaheptyl)amine complex, and organic electron‐acceptor compounds such as 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐p‐benzoquinone (DDQ). This polymerization proceeds in electrophilic solvents such as nitrobenzene, methylene chloride, etc. The cation‐radical polymerization initiated by a catalytic amount of oxidant is demonstrated by using vanadyl acetylacetonate as oxidant. An example in which the polymerization proceeds by both a cation‐radical reaction and an electrophilic transalkylation reaction is provided by the polymerization of 2,2‐bis[4‐(1‐naphthoxy)phenyl]propane initiated with FeCl 3 .
Feedback noise in single-mode semiconductor lasers (1991)

<p>In nearly every application of semiconductor lasers some externally reflected light is coupled back into the laser with a certain time delay. The noise and coherence properties are very sensitive to optical feedback. Coupling to external cavity modes induces frequency shifts, line-narrowing and broadening, competition among different external cavity modes, or dynamical instabilities. Strongly dispersive gain makes instabilities efficiently generate phaser noise, leading to coherence collapse. We present an overview of these phenomena and their theoretical descriptions.</p>
Calorie restriction: what recent results suggest for the future of ageing research (2010)

Whether current positive results will translate into longevity gains for humans remains an open question. However, the apparent health benefits that have been observed with CR suggest that regardless of longevity gains, the promotion of healthy ageing and disease prevention may be attainable.
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for measurement of serological response to respiratory syncytial virus infection (1978)

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was applied to the detection of serum antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus. The end points of the various sera tested in the assay were approximately 100 times higher than in the complement-fixation test and 2 to 4 times higher than in the plaque reduction test. In addition, the immunosorbent assay appeared to be more efficient than the plaque reduction and complement-fixation techniques for detecting a serological response in young infants (1 to 6 months old) with serous respiratory syncytial virus lower respiratory disease. The simplicity, sensitivity, and rapidity of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay make it a useful tool for immunological studies with respiratory syncytial virus.
Host range, purification and some properties of hop mosaic virus (1980)

SUMMARY Hop mosaic virus (HMV) causes severe symptoms in sensitive hop ( Humulus Zupulus ) cultivars, but over 90% of hop plants grown in England belong to tolerant cultivars and most of these plants are infected. HMV infected 11 herbaceous species symptomlessly but infection was systemic in only three of these: Nicotiana clevelandii, N. debneyi and Urtica urens . HMV did not infect 33 other species in 13 families. The virus was transmitted in the non‐persistent manner by the aphids Myzus persicae, Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Phorodon humuli . It was not seed‐borne in N. clevelandii, U. wens or hop. HMV was purified by precipitation from N. clevelandii extracts with polyethylene glycol followed by centrifugation in sucrose density gradients. The preparations contained filamentous particles c . 14 × 650 nm composed of c . 6% single‐stranded RNA of mol. wt c . 3.0 × 10 6 and a single protein species of mol. wt c . 34 000. HMV showed distant serological relationships to carnation latent, potato M, cowpea mild mosaic and hop latent viruses but it did not react with antisera to six other carlaviruses. The cryptogram for HMV is R/1: 3.0/(6): E/E: S/Ve/Ap.
Data-Based Binaural Synthesis Including Rotational and Translatory Head-Movements (2013)

Several approaches to data-based binaural synthesis have been published that are based on the analysis of sound fields captured by spherical microphone arrays. The captured sound field is decomposed into plane waves which are then auralized with head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). So far head-rotations of the listener were considered for dynamic binaural synthesis. We propose an analytic method to consider translatory head-movements as well. A straightforward calculus in the spatial frequency domain is presented and will be evaluated. 1.
Tobacco Budworms: Response to Gossypol and Selection in a Field-collected Strain Under Laboratory Conditions (1985)

A cuture of Heliothis virescens (F.), collected from cotton as larvae, was maintained on diet medium containing concentrations of gossypol for 13 generations and selected for a tolerance when compared to a control culture. By selecting only larvae that weighed at least 60% of the average weight of control-culture larvae, we observed a significant increase in tolerance to gossypol. In generation 13, the concentration necessary for 95% weight reduction was significantly greater than in generations of the selected and control cultures previously tested. The gossypol treatment affected larval weights, pupal weights, percentage of pupation, and time to pupation of the selected culture compared to the control culture; however, the major effects were observed within the first generations. Fertility of females from the selected culture in generation 13 reared on 0.21% gossypol was reduced 38% compared to females from the control culture.

Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor promotes the tumorigenic and metastatic potential of cancer cells (2003)

Because of their ability to inhibit proteases, protease inhibitors have generally been considered to counteract tumor progression and metastasis. However, expression of serine protease inhibitors (SPIs) in tumors is often associated with poor prognosis of cancer patients. Moreover, there is growing evidence that SPIs may even promote malignancy of cancer cells, opening new avenues for their use as biomarkers in malignancy. To isolate cancer promoting genes, we applied the suppression subtractive hybridization method to low-malignant Lewis Lung Carcinoma 3LL-S versus high-malignant 3LL-S-sc cells. This resulted in the identification of the SPI secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), as one of the genes whose expression was higher in 3LL-S-sc than in 3LL-S cells. By stable transfection of 3LL-S cells with mouse or human SLPI, we demonstrated that elevated levels of SLPI expression increased both the tumorigenicity and lung-colonizing potential of 3LL-S cells. Moreover, we showed that this function of SLPI depended on its protease inhibitory capacity. Our results also reveal that although SLPI enhanced the proliferation of 3LL-S cells in vitro, its promalignant activity in vivo was not solely due to its effect on cell proliferation. In this study, we report a causal role for SLPI in the malignant behavior of cancer cells, underscoring the potential malignancy-promoting activities of SPIs.
Mutations in RAD6, a yeast gene encoding a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, stimulate retrotransposition. (1990)

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA repair gene RAD6 encodes a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme which polyubiquitinates histones in vitro. Here we show that mutations in rad6 increase the frequency of transposition of the retrotransposon Ty into the CAN1 and URA3 loci. Using isogenic RAD6 and rad6 strains, we measured a more than 100-fold increase in the spontaneous rate of retrotransposition due to rad6, although there was no increase in the Ty message level. This is the first time that a mutation in a host gene has been shown to result in an increased rate of retrotransposition.
Ruthenium-Nitrosyl Complexes with Glycine, <scp>l</scp>-Alanine, <scp>l</scp>-Valine, <scp>l</scp>-Proline, <scp>d</scp>-Proline, <scp>l</scp>-Serine, <scp>l</scp>-Threonine, and <scp>l</scp>-Tyrosine: Synthesis, X-ray Diffraction Structures, Spectroscopic and Electrochemical Properties, and Antiproliferative Activity (2014)

The reactions of [Ru(NO)Cl5](2-) with glycine (Gly), L-alanine (L-Ala), L-valine (L-Val), L-proline (L-Pro), D-proline (D-Pro), L-serine (L-Ser), L-threonine (L-Thr), and L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) in n-butanol or n-propanol afforded eight new complexes (1-8) of the general formula [RuCl3(AA-H)(NO)](-), where AA = Gly, L-Ala, L-Val, L-Pro, D-Pro, L-Ser, L-Thr, and L-Tyr, respectively. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), (1)H NMR, UV-visible and ATR IR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and X-ray crystallography. X-ray crystallography studies have revealed that in all cases the same isomer type (from three theoretically possible) was isolated, namely mer(Cl),trans(NO,O)-[RuCl3(AA-H)(NO)], as was also recently reported for osmium analogues with Gly, L-Pro, and D-Pro (see Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 2013, 639, 1590-1597). Compounds 1, 4, 5, and 8 were investigated by ESI-MS with regard to their stability in aqueous solution and reactivity toward sodium ascorbate. In addition, cell culture experiments in three human cancer cell lines, namely, A549 (nonsmall cell lung carcinoma), CH1 (ovarian carcinoma), and SW480 (colon carcinoma), were performed, and the results are discussed in conjunction with the lipophilicity of compounds.
New simulation techniques using spice (1986)

New modeling techniques are described using the SPICE circuit simulation program. A saturable core model is developed using standard SPICE elements in a subcircuit. A DC transformer model is shown to perform state averaging using nodal analysis, thereby extending the techniques of Middlebrook, et al. to SPICE. A SPICE syntax extension is proposed that allows these models to have properties of basic SPICE device models.
