Plasma Hypoxanthine and Exercise (1987)

During exercise, ATP is converted to ADP and AMP to supply energy for muscular contraction. It is then regenerated via various pathways of intermediary metabolism. However, with high levels of exercise, net ATP degradation in muscle occurs. In exercise and other clinical situations, adenine nucleotide degradation leads to an accumulation of degradative purine products including hypoxanthine. In an effort to monitor events of energy metabolism, we examined plasma hypoxanthine levels at various exercise intensities. Peak plasma hypoxanthine levels after maximal exercise (18.9 +/- 2.6 microM, mean +/- SEM) were significantly greater than resting levels (1.1 +/- 0.1 microM; p less than 0.001). Hypoxanthine levels after steady state exercise at 52, 76, and 97% of ventilatory threshold did not exceed resting levels. However, plasma hypoxanthine rose significantly after exercise at 124% of ventilatory threshold (6.3 +/- 1.0 microM; p less than 0.01) and at 152% of ventilatory threshold (17.0 +/- 3.6 microM; p less than 0.001). Exercise at subventilatory threshold intensity (74% of ventilatory threshold) for a prolonged time period, such that total work equaled that performed at 152% of ventilatory threshold, did not elevate hypoxanthine levels (0.46 +/- 0.1 microM) above resting values. We conclude that elevation of plasma hypoxanthine levels occur during exercise at intensities that exceed the ventilatory threshold and indicate that net adenine nucleotide degradation has occurred.
Mining Logs Files for Computing System Management (2005)

With advancement in science and technology, computing systems become increasingly more difficult to monitor, manage and maintain. Traditional approaches to system management have been largely based on domain experts through a knowledge acquisition process to translate domain knowledge into operating rules and policies. This has been experienced as a cumbersome, labor intensive, and error prone process. There is thus a pressing need for automatic and efficient approaches to monitor and manage complex computing systems. A popular approach to system management is based on analyzing system log files. However, several new aspects of the system log data have been less emphasized in existing analysis methods and posed several challenges. The aspects include disparate formats and relatively short text messages in data reporting, asynchronous data collection, and temporal characteristics in data representation. First, a typical computing system contains different devices with different software components, possibly from different providers. These various components have multiple ways to report events, conditions, errors and alerts. The heterogeneity and inconsistency of log formats make it difficult to automate problem determination. To perform automated analysis, we need to categorize the text messages with disparate formats into common situations. Second, text messages in the log files are relatively short with a large vocabulary size. Third, each text message usually contains a timestamp. The temporal characteristics provide additional context information of the messages and can be used to facilitate data analysis. In this paper, we apply text mining to automatically categorize the messages into a set of common categories, and propose two approaches of incorporating temporal information to improve the categorization performance
Effect of Chronic Ethanol Feeding on Lipid Peroxidation and Protein Oxidation in Relation to Liver Pathology (1997)

Liver lipid peroxidation, nonheme iron, antioxidants, and protein oxidation were investigated in experimental alcohol-induced liver disease in the rat. Wistar male rats were intragastrically and continuously infused for 4 weeks with a high-fat diet plus an ethanol or an isocaloric amount of dextrose, maintaining a high blood alcohol level (200-300 mg%). This model induced fatty liver, spotty necrosis, and focal inflammation. This pathology was associated with an enhanced lipid peroxidation and a decrease in the major antioxidant factors. Hepatic alpha-tocopherol and glutathione concentrations were significantly decreased in ethanol-fed rats. Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) was also decreased, whereas glutathione S-transferase (GST) was unaffected. The nonheme iron level was significantly decreased. Protein oxidation was assessed through three parameters: protein thiols, protein carbonyl groups, and the activity of glutamine synthetase (GS), a centrilobular enzyme particularly susceptible to free-radical-mediated damage. Ethanol-fed rats had decreased protein thiol concentrations and reduced GS activity, together with increased protein carbonyls. A significant correlation between GS activity and the pathological score was observed. This study confirms the ethanol-related increase in lipid peroxidation and shows that ethanol impairs the hepatic antioxidant potential. Furthermore, evidence of oxidative protein damage is given, including decreased activity of a key enzyme of ammonia metabolism. These protein disturbances may contribute to the pathogenesis of the observed liver damage.

Preparation and characterization of a chitosan film with grape seed extract-carvacrol microcapsules and its effect on the shelf-life of refrigerated Salmon (Salmo salar) (2017)

Chitosan films with grape seed extract and carvacrol microcapsules (CMF) were prepared and their physico-chemical properties and effect on physico-chemical and microbiological parameters in refrigerated salmon were tested. CMF showed higher values of thickness (0.41 ± 0.04 mm), moisture content (13 ± 1 g water/100 g film), a (11 ± 3), b (12 ± 3), opacity (20 ± 1%), water vapor permeability (WVP) (4.4 ± 0.4) × 10−10 gPa−1s−1m−1, oxygen permeability (O2P) (1.3 ± 0.3) × 10−12 gPa−1s−1m−1 and carbon dioxide permeability (CO2P) (1.3 ± 0.3) × 10−12 gPa−1s−1m−1 as compared to those of the chitosan control film (CCF). CMF showed lower values of L (66 ± 5) and water solubility (17 ± 1%). The salmon packed into CMF presented on the 7th day of storage a lower value of TVB-N (37 ± 4 mg N/100 g fish) as compared to the CCF (42 ± 3 mg N/100 g fish) and control samples (CS; 66 ± 7 mg N/100 g fish). The CMF showed lower values of pH and lightness after 7 days of storage as compared to CS and CCF. The CMF showed also lower values of mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria and Pseudomonas spp, reaching the maximum limit allowed for the first two only on the 7th day of storage. CMF increases the shelf-life of refrigerated salmon to 4–7 days of storage due to the antimicrobial effect of the natural agents.

An ultra-low-power extended counting ADC For large scale sensor arrays (2014)

In this paper, an ultra-low-power area-efficient 12-bit extended counting analog-to-digital conversion (EC-ADC) is presented. A double-sampling configuration for incremental ΣΔ modulators is proposed to halve the clock frequency of EC-ADC for the same conversion accuracy and rate. A class-AB operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) for low power EC-ADC is developed. The proposed architecture has been implemented using a commercial 0.18μm CMOS technology and occupies an area of 0.036mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> . Measured results show that a power consumption of 13μW can be achieved at the conversion rate of 50Ksamples/s and 10.2-bit accuracy respectively.
Segmentation of cell images using an expert system (1988)

The objective of this work was to develop a rule-based expert system for recognition of single or overlapping cells. A local threshold was found automatically by gradient operations and then used for chain-code formation. The shape analysis was done on the chain code of cell edges. The curvature function was derived from the chain code. The rule-based expert system assisted in analyzing the curvature function and making decisions on object recognition. The preliminary results in this study demonstrate the potential of expert systems in cell image segmentation.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Computation reduction for motion search in low rate video coders (2002)

In this paper, computation reduction algorithms of motion estimation are developed for low rate video coders. By jointly considering motion estimation, discrete cosine transform, and quantization, the all-zero and zero-motion detection algorithms are suggested to reduce the computation of motion estimation. Simulation results show that many unnecessary computations in motion estimation are greatly reduced. For the Akiyo sequence, the proposed algorithms reduce the average numbers of search points from 28.90 and 4.99 to 2.89 and 1.40 for three-step search and diamond-search algorithms, respectively.

Assessment of severe reperfusion injury with T2* cardiac MRI in patients with acute myocardial infarction (2010)

Severe reperfusion injury may occur when there is near-transmural myocardial necrosis despite early and successful revascularisation. Reperfusion haemorrhage is closely associated with the development of MVO. These findings indicate that, once advanced necrosis has developed, the potential for severe myocardial reperfusion injury is significantly enhanced.
Structural unbalanced chromosome rearrangements resolved by comparative genomic hybridization (1999)

The identification of unbalanced structural chromosome rearrangements using conventional cytogenetic techniques depends on recognition of the unknown material from its banding pattern. Even with optimally banded chromosomes, when large chromosome segments are involved, cytogeneticists may not always be able to determine the origin of extrachromosomal material and supernumerary chromosomes. We report here on the application of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), a new molecular-cytogenetic assay capable of detecting chromosomal gains and losses, to six clinical samples suspected of harboring unbalanced structural chromosome abnormalities. CGH provided essential information on the nature of the unbalanced aberration investigated in five of the six samples. This approach has proved its ability to resolve complex karyotypes and to provide information when metaphase chromosomes are not available. In cases where metaphase chromosome spreads were available, confirmation of CGH results was easily obtained by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using specific probes. Thus the combined use of CGH and FISH provided an efficient method for resolving the origin of aberrant chromosomal material unidentified by conventional cytogenetic analysis.
Hydrogen Production from Ammonia Using a Plasma Membrane Reactor (2016)

In this study, an efficient method for using pulsed plasma to produce hydrogen from ammonia was developed. An original pulsed plasma reactor with a hydrogen separation membrane was developed for efficient hydrogen production, and its hydrogen production performance was investigated. Hydrogen production in the plasma was affected by the applied voltage and flow rate of ammonia gas. The maximum hydrogen production flow rate of a typical plasma reactor was 8.7 L/h, whereas that of the plasma membrane reactor was 21.0 L/h. We found that ammonia recombination reactions in the plasma controlled hydrogen production in the plasma reactor. In the plasma membrane reactor, a significant increase in hydrogen production was obtained because ammonia recombination reactions were inhibited by the permeation of hydrogen radicals generated in the plasma through a palladium alloy membrane. The energy efficiency was 4.42 mol-H2/kWh depending on the discharge power.
Emission characteristics of the ZrO/W thermal field electron source (1985)

The ZrO/W thermal field emitter (TFE) has proven to be a useful high brightness electron source for a variety of microprobe applications. Desirable source characteristics are: 1 to 2 mA/sr angular intensity, 1 to 1.5 eV energy spread for an emitter radius of 0.6 to 1 μm, and &lt;0.5% noise level between 1 Hz and 25 kHz. In this study we examine the effect of the faceted shape1 of the ZrO/W TFE on the angular distribution of the emission and virtual source size. In particular the scwim computer program1 is employed to compare the emission characteristics of faceted and spherical shaped emitters. The computer derived results agree qualitatively with experimental angular emission distributions measured for various emitter radii. It is shown that the high angular intensity obtained from the ZrO/W TFE is due in part to a large angular demagnification caused by the faceted emitter region. Nevertheless, a comparison of the virtual source size of the faceted and the spherical shapes shows only a small source image increase due to faceting. The minimum values of virtual source size at an angular intensity of 1 mA/sr for the spherical and faceted emitters are 8 and 12 nm, respectively.

Development of an Intelligent Data-Driven System to Recommend Personalized Fashion Design Solutions (2021)

In the context of fashion/textile innovations towards Industry 4.0, a variety of digital technologies, such as 3D garment CAD, have been proposed to automate, optimize design and manufacturing processes in the organizations of involved enterprises and supply chains as well as services such as marketing and sales. However, the current digital solutions rarely deal with key elements used in the fashion industry, including professional knowledge, as well as fashion and functional requirements of the customer and their relations with product technical parameters. Especially, product design plays an essential role in the whole fashion supply chain and should be paid more attention to in the process of digitalization and intelligentization of fashion companies. In this context, we originally developed an interactive fashion and garment design system by systematically integrating a number of data-driven services of garment design recommendation, 3D virtual garment fitting visualization, design knowledge base, and design parameters adjustment. This system enables close interactions between the designer, consumer, and manufacturer around the virtual product corresponding to each design solution. In this way, the complexity of the product design process can drastically be reduced by directly integrating the consumer's perception and professional designer's knowledge into the garment computer-aided design (CAD) environment. Furthermore, for a specific consumer profile, the related computations (design solution recommendation and design parameters adjustment) are performed by using a number of intelligent algorithms (BIRCH, adaptive Random Forest algorithms, and association mining) and matching with a formalized design knowledge base. The proposed interactive design system has been implemented and then exposed through the REST API, for designing garments meeting the consumer's personalized fashion requirements by repeatedly running the cycle of design recommendation-virtual garment fitting-online evaluation of designer and consumer-design parameters adjustment-design knowledge base creation, and updating. The effectiveness of the proposed system has been validated through a business case of personalized men's shirt design.
The Role of JNK and p38 MAPK Activities in UVA-Induced Signaling Pathways Leading to AP-1 Activation and c-Fos Expression (2003)

To further delineate ultraviolet A (UVA) signaling pathways in the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT, we examined the potential role of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in UVA-induced activator protein-1 (AP-1) transactivation and c-Fos expression. UVA-induced phosphorylation of p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) proteins was detected immediately after irradiation and disappeared after approximately 2 hours. Conversely, phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase was significantly inhibited for up to 1 hour post-UVA irradiation. To examine the role of p38 and JNK MAPKs in UVA-induced AP-1 and c-fos transactivations, the selective pharmacologic MAPK inhibitors, SB202190 (p38 inhibitor) and SP600125 (JNK inhibitor), were used to independently treat stably transfected HaCaT cells in luciferase reporter assays. Both SB202190 and SP600125 dose-dependently inhibited UVA-induced AP-1 and c-fos transactivations. SB202190 (0.25-0.5 microM) and SP600125 (62-125 nM) treatments also primarily inhibited UVA-induced c-Fos expression. These results demonstrated that activation of both JNK and p38 play critical role in UVA-mediated AP-1 transactivation and c-Fos expression in these human keratinocyte cells. Targeted inhibition of these MAPKs with their selective pharmacologic inhibitors may be effective chemopreventive strategies for UVA-induced nonmelanoma skin cancer.
Soft Contact Lenses with Positive Spherical Aberration for Myopia Control (2015)

The soft contact lens with +SA slowed axial growth of the eye, although this did not translate into a sustained statistically significant effect on SECAR. The majority of the treatment effect occurred in the initial 6 months of wear. No evidence of rebound effect was observed after ceasing treatment.
Global Positioning Systems: Analysis Principles and Sources of Evidence in User Devices (2008)

The growing popularity of Global Positioning Systems and other location-based telecommunications service provision provide a further potential source of data for the forensic investigator. Network- or device located information may have evidential value in supporting a case by providing details or proof of visited locations, navigation through particular routes,or communications with third parties. In this paper we focus on the examination of the end users portable device and we highlight the nature and locations where potential evidence may be left behind.
