The evaluation of remedial treatments for wine affected by <i>Harmonia axyridis</i> (2005)

Summary This study evaluated the efficacy of a range of commercially available fining agents and other interventions on reducing 2‐isopropyl‐3‐methoxypyrazine (IPMP) concentration and taint characteristics of white and red wine affected by Harmonia axyridis ( HA ). Wines fermented in the presence of HA beetles were treated with bentonite, activated charcoal, oak chips, deodorized oak chips and either ultraviolet (red wine) or visible (white wine) light. IPMP concentrations were lowered by activated charcoal in white wine and deodorized oak in red wine. Treatment with oak chips reduced the intensity of HA ‐associated sensory attributes (‘ladybug taint’) in both white and red wines, while other applications generally had no effect on white wine and limited effect on red wines.
Genetic Variation in CACNA1C Affects Brain Circuitries Related to Mental Illness (2010)

The risk-associated SNP in CACNA1C maps to circuitries implicated in genetic risk for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Its effects in human brain expression implicate a molecular and neural system mechanism for the clinical genetic association.
Invariant NKT cells and CD1d<sup>+</sup> cells amass in human omentum and are depleted in patients with cancer and obesity (2009)

Invariant NKT (iNKT) cells recognize lipid antigens presented by CD1d and respond rapidly by killing tumor cells and release cytokines that activate and regulate adaptive immune responses. They are essential for tumor rejection in various mouse models, but clinical trials in humans involving iNKT cells have been less successful, partly due to their rarity in humans compared with mice. Here we describe an accumulation of functional iNKT cells in human omentum, a migratory organ with healing properties. Analysis of 39 omental samples revealed that T cells are the predominant lymphoid cell type and of these, 10% expressed the invariant Valpha24Jalpha18 TCR chain, found on iNKT cells, higher than in any other human organ tested to date. About 15% of omental hematopoietic cells expressed CD1d, compared with 1% in blood (p<0.001). Enriched omental iNKT cells killed CD1d(+) targets and released IFN-gamma and IL-4 upon activation. Omental iNKT-cell frequencies were lower in patients with severe obesity (p=0.005), and with colorectal carcinoma (p=0.004) compared with lean healthy subjects. These data suggest a novel role for the omentum in immune regulation and tumor immunity and identify it as a potential source of iNKT cells for therapeutic use.

Automated data extraction from the web with conditional models (2005)

Extracting data on the Web is an important information extraction task. Most existing approaches rely on wrappers which require human knowledge and user interaction during extraction. This paper proposes the use of conditional models as an alternative solution to this task. Deriving the strength of conditional models like maximum entropy and maximum entropy Markov models, our method offers three major advantages: the full automation, the ability to incorporate various non-independent, overlapping features of different hypertext representations, and the ability to deal with missing and disordered data fields. The experimental results on a wide range of e-commercial websites with different layouts show that our method can achieve a satisfactory trade-off between automation and accuracy, and also provide a practical application of automated data extraction from the Web.
Exploring the Potential of Monoclonal Antibody Therapeutics for HIV-1 Eradication (2014)

The HIV field has seen an increased interest in novel cure strategies. In particular, new latency reversal agents are in development to reverse latency to flush the virus out of its hiding place. Combining these efforts with immunotherapeutic approaches may not only drive the virus out of latency, but allow for the rapid elimination of these infected cells in a "shock and kill" approach. Beyond cell-based approaches, growing interest lies in the potential use of functionally enhanced "killer" monoclonal therapeutics to purge the reservoir. Here we discuss prospects for a monoclonal therapeutic-based "shock and kill" strategy that may lead to the permanent elimination of replication-competent virus, making a functional cure a reality for all patients afflicted with HIV worldwide.
Moving Liquids with Sound: The Physics of Acoustic Droplet Ejection for Robust Laboratory Automation in Life Sciences (2015)

Liquid handling instruments for life science applications based on droplet formation with focused acoustic energy or acoustic droplet ejection (ADE) were introduced commercially more than a decade ago. While the idea of "moving liquids with sound" was known in the 20th century, the development of precise methods for acoustic dispensing to aliquot life science materials in the laboratory began in earnest in the 21st century with the adaptation of the controlled "drop on demand" acoustic transfer of droplets from high-density microplates for high-throughput screening (HTS) applications. Robust ADE implementations for life science applications achieve excellent accuracy and precision by using acoustics first to sense the liquid characteristics relevant for its transfer, and then to actuate transfer of the liquid with customized application of sound energy to the given well and well fluid in the microplate. This article provides an overview of the physics behind ADE and its central role in both acoustical and rheological aspects of robust implementation of ADE in the life science laboratory and its broad range of ejectable materials.
Impact of Corpora Quality on Neural Machine Translation (2018)

Large parallel corpora that are automatically obtained from the web, documents or elsewhere often exhibit many corrupted parts that are bound to negatively affect the quality of the systems and models that learn from these corpora. This paper describes frequent problems found in data and such data affects neural machine translation systems, as well as how to identify and deal with them. The solutions are summarised in a set of scripts that remove problematic sentences from input corpora.
Evaluation of plasma sodium concentration during hemodialysis by computerization of dialysate conductivity. (1991)

Kinetics modeling based on sodium mass balance and changes in conductivity at the dialysate outlet compared to that at the dialysate inlet, led to predicting the plasma water conductivity of the blood inlet. Conductivity transducers, with temperature compensation, located at the dialysate inlet and outlet ports of the dialyzer and connected to a conductimeter, were interfaced with a portable computer for data acquisition. In 38 dialysis sessions, a close relationship was found between estimated plasma water conductivity (CdBi) and measured plasma sodium concentration [Na]Bi, according to the formula: CdBi = 0.101[Na]Bi + 0.37 (n = 38; r = 0.922). The study shows that plasma sodium concentration at the dialyzer inlet could be evaluated, with a standard error of +/- 1.5 mEq/L, by continuous measurement of conductivity gradient between dialysate inlet and outlet.
A Study on Proliferation and Behavior of Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells on Purified Alginate Films (2011)

In this result, ARPE-19 cells in purified alginate films had higher cell proliferative rate and phenotypic expression than those on non-purified alginate films. The results suggest that purified alginate is useful for RPEs regeneration.
Neuroprotective effect and intraocular penetration of nipradilol, a beta-blocker with nitric oxide donative action. (2001)

Nipradilol suppressed the NMDA-induced retinal damage in rats for which nitric oxide released from nipradilol may be responsible. Posterior penetration studies suggested that an effective concentration of nipradilol reached the posterior retina after topical application.
New liquid-crystalline polymers with chiral phases (1987)

Abstract Liquid-crystalline polyesters with cholesteric and probably chiral smectic C∗ phases were prepared using combined liquid-crystalline polymers (that is polymers with the mesogenic groups in the main chain as well as in the side groups). Copolyesters of these polymers and polymers with olefinic double bonds could be cross-linked retaining the liquid-crystalline phases. This resulted in cross-linked polymers with elastic properties.
Effects of Long-Term Cocaine Exposure on Spermatogenesis and Fertility in Peripubertal Male Rats (1996)

Our findings demonstrate that chronic administration of cocaine to peripubertal male rats has a profound effect on their testicular function. Even with twice weekly administration there was a significant adverse effect on spermatogenesis although this was not manifested by diminished fertility in this group. These findings confirm that chronic administration of cocaine to male rats can have a deleterious effect on spermatogenesis and fertility.
Recursive Unsolvability of a problem of Thue (1947)

Alonzo Church suggested to the writer that a certain problem of Thue [6] might be proved unsolvable by the methods of [5]. We proceed to prove the problem recursively unsolvable, that is, unsolvable in the sense of Church [1], but by a method meeting the special needs of the problem. Thue's (general) problem is the following. Given a finite set of symbols α 1 , α 2 , …, αμ, we consider arbitrary strings (Zeichenreihen) on those symbols, that is, rows of symbols each of which is in the given set. Null strings are included.
HyperSource (2011)

Programmers frequently use the Web while writing code: they search for libraries, code examples, tutorials, and documentation. This link between code and visited Web pages remains implicit today. Connecting source code and browsing histories might help programmers maintain con-text, reduce the cost of Web page re-retrieval, and enhance understanding when code is shared. This note introduces HyperSource, an IDE augmentation that associates browsing histories with source code edits. HyperSource comprises a browser extension that logs visited pages; an IDE that tracks user activity and maps pages to code edits; a source document model that tracks visited pages at a character level; and a user interface that enables interaction with these histories. We discuss relevance heuristics and privacy issues inherent in this approach. Informal log analyses and user feedback suggest that our annotation model is promising for code editing and might also apply to other document authoring tasks after refinement.
Neuro-dynamic programming: an overview (2002)

We discuss a relatively new class of dynamic programming methods for control and sequential decision making under uncertainty. These methods have the potential of dealing with problems that for a long time were thought to be intractable due to either a large state space or the lack of an accurate model. The methods discussed combine ideas from the fields of neural networks, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, simulation, and approximation theory. We delineate the major conceptual issues, survey a number of recent developments, describe some computational experience, and address a number of open questions.

Oral and spinal melatonin reduces tactile allodynia in rats via activation of MT2 and opioid receptors (2007)

The antiallodynic effect of melatonin after intrathecal (it) and oral administration as well as the possible participation of MT(2) and opioid receptors in melatonin-induced antiallodynia in neuropathic rats were assessed. Ligation of the L5/L6 spinal nerves produced a clear-cut tactile allodynia in the rats. Intrathecal (3-100 microg) and oral (37.5-300 mg/kg) administration of melatonin decreased tactile allodynia induced by spinal nerve ligation. Intrathecal administration of the preferential MT(2) receptor antagonist luzindole (1-100 microg), but not vehicle, significantly diminished in a dose-dependent manner the antiallodynic effect induced by melatonin (100 microg, it). Oral (0.01-1mg/kg) or intrathecal (0.1-10 microg) administration of the highly selective MT(2) receptor antagonist 4P-PDOT diminished the antiallodynic activity induced by oral (150 mg/kg) or intrathecal (100 microg) administration of melatonin, respectively. Subcutaneous (1mg/kg) or intrathecal (0.5-50 microg) treatment with naltrexone, but not vehicle, significantly diminished the antiallodynic effect induced by oral (150 mg/kg) or intrathecal (100 microg) administration of melatonin. Oral melatonin (150 mg/kg)-induced antiallodynia was partially reduced by the spinal administration of 4P-PDOT (10 microg). Moreover, the spinal effect of melatonin (100 microg) was significantly reduced by the combination 4P-PDOT (0.1 microg)-naltrexone (0.5 microg). At the greatest tested doses, the antagonist drugs did not modify tactile allodynia in neuropathic rats. Melatonin (100 microg or 300 mg/kg) did not affect motor co-ordination in the rotarod test. Results indicate that melatonin reduces tactile allodynia in neuropathic rats after intrathecal and oral administration. Moreover, data suggest the participation of spinal MT(2) and opioid receptors in the melatonin-induced antiallodynic effect in this model.
Lacticin 3147 displays activity in buffer against Gram‐positive bacterial pathogens which appear insensitive in standard plate assays (1999)

Lacticin 3147 is a broad-spectrum bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis DPC3147, which has been shown to be active against a range of food-borne bacteria. The reported inhibitory range for lacticin is extended to include methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis, penicillin-resistant Pneumococcus, Propionibacterium acne and Streptococcus mutans. This extended host range is not obvious from traditional agar plate-based methods, but reductions in bacterial cell numbers by up to 6 log10 cfu ml-1 was observed after 2 h in time-kill curve studies conducted in broth, suggesting that the bacteriocin may have potential as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of human infections.
Certificates for mobile code security (2002)

The problem of protecting mobile code from malicious hosts is an important security issue, for which many solutions have been proposed. We describe a method to adapt an existing technique, execution tracing, to enhance its flexibility in deployment for a large scale mobile agent system. This is achieved through the introduction of a trusted third party, the verification server, which undertakes the verification of execution traces on behalf of the platform launching the agent. The server constructs a certificate that testifies to the capability of a particular host platform to undertake the correct execution of a mobile agent. In this sense, the server assumes a role analogous of a Certificate Authority (CA) in a PKI. We briefly discuss the issues associated with such a framework.
Highly effective ferric hydroxide supported gold catalyst for selective oxidation of CO in the presence of H2This work was financially supported by The National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 20173068). (2003)

Ferric hydroxide supported Au prepared with co-precipitation without heat treatment could be a very effective catalyst for selective CO oxidation in the presence of H2 at lower temperatures.
Covid-19 vaccine immunogenicity in people living with HIV-1 (2022)

HIV-positive individuals with CD4 counts over 250 cells/mm<sup>3</sup> have an anti-RBD IgG response similar to the general population. However, HIV-positive individuals with the lowest CD4 counts (<250 cells/mm<sup>3</sup>) have a weaker response. These data would support the hypothesis that a booster dose might be needed in this subgroup of HIV-positive individuals, depending on their response to the second dose.

Robust Angle Invariant GAS Meter Reading (2015)

In this work we propose a novel method for automatic gas meter reading from real world images. In a wide range of countries all over the world, the existing automatic technology is not adopted, usually the reading is manually done on site, and a picture is taken through a mobile device as a proof of reading. In order to confirm the reading, a tedious work of checking the proof images is commonly done offline by an operator. With this contribution we aim to supply an effective system, able to provide a real support to the validation process reducing the human effort and the time consumed. We exploit both region-based and Maximally Stable Extremal Regions techniques, during the phase involving the localization of the meter area and to detect the meter counter digits in the detection step respectively. The evaluation has been carried out on every step of our approach, as well as on the overall assessment; although the problem is complex, the proposed method leads to good results even when applied to degraded images, it represents an effective solution to the gas meter reading problem and it can be utilized in real applications.
A New Equal Area Method to Calculate and Represent Physiologic, Anatomical, and Alveolar Dead Spaces (2006)

The authors' equal area method for calculating, displaying, and visualizing physiologic dead space is easy to understand and yields the same results as the classic Bohr-Enghoff equation and Fletcher area method. All three dead spaces--physiologic, anatomical, and alveolar--together with their relations to expired volume, can be displayed conveniently on the x-axis of a carbon dioxide expirogram.
Simultaneous Angular Rate Estimates Extracted From a Single Axisymmetric Resonator (2017)

An axisymmetric planar microelectromechanical (MEM) resonator resonator is configured, such that the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 2$ </tex-math></inline-formula> elliptical pair of modes near 13.5kHz, and the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 3$ </tex-math></inline-formula> pair of modes near 23.8kHz, are both degenerate, i.e., the frequency difference within a given pair of modes is close to the resonance bandwidth. This configuration enables not only the exploitation of the standard elliptical pair of modes for angular rate sensing but also permits the operation of the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 3$ </tex-math></inline-formula> pair of modes as a high-sensitivity Coriolis vibratory gyro. The performance for each pair of modes separately acting as a vibratory gyro is quantified, however, the control architecture also facilitates the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">simultaneous</i> operation of both pairs of modes. In this scenario, two measurements of angular rate are extracted from a single resonator and although the short-term rate noise associated with the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 3$ </tex-math></inline-formula> pair is an order of magnitude larger than the rate extracted from the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 2$ </tex-math></inline-formula> pair, the long-term drift in the rate offsets are correlated. Thus, a filter architecture for fusing the rate measurements is proposed and it is shown how the derived rate estimate possesses superior offset stability but also retains the low short-term noise associated with the rate measurement from the <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$n = 2$ </tex-math></inline-formula> pair.

mRNA expression, functional profiling and multivariate classification of colon biopsy specimen by cDNA overall glass microarray (2006)

Different histological alterations can be reclassified by functional, multivariate analysis using cDNA microarrays. Further studies with expanded sample number are needed for subclassification of pathological alterations.
